Vtol Controls Configuration (On KSP)
Please follow this post link to implement Vtol adjustable angle control with the latest version it's updated to analog controls that are not automatic set in KSP.
 
Update 0.6.6.6 to KSP 1.12.3
49877731127_4993b25bde_h.jpg
Hello, Everyone. 

So, this is my idea, from child, I dream to fly one of these. A flying car.

The name is OMICRON!  

Is a flying space car with a foot on reality and other in near future.

The engine is in the same principle of a Saber engine, but Vtol too, and will accept stock rocket engines in the back. all parts are modular and you can build on your own. But i put some example crafts with the download.

My attempt is to have the EVA and the IVA all together, i mean, the Kerbals will be visible inside the craft, and all windows/doors will be openable, more likely the stock seat, but inside the craft. 

The configurations you'll be able to do it, reach VTOLSSTO. I'm not creating new engines to put on back, only the Vtol SSTO ones that show in the pics, on the side of the craft.

I hope all can joy this creation and use it in your voyages.

Cheers commanders.

 

List of things i still need to do (for full release):

  • Finalize cockpit panel extra functions;
  • Plate with 6 rockets and included legs;
  • Ejection system for seats and windows;
  • Parachutes;
  • Wings;
  • Rocket command pod with big windows;

Installation Notes:

Quote

Omicron Pre Release  0.6.6 - (KSP 1.12.3 - backwards compatible. Work on 1.7.3 too)

Installation

Extract this to KSP/GameData/Omicron.

Dependencies:

-     Module Mirror plugin (included) from KerbalFoundries, but the forum post is from Lo-Fi, so Thank you Lo-Fi;

-     Module Omicron (included). First code for Omicron, in use on functional Cockpit Panel. (i'm on it, coding and texturing), and some vtol and cockpit panel animations;

-     KSPWheel plugin, thanks to Shadowmage! Used in the landing gears! (no more included, download from KSPWheel;
   http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/152782-122-kspwheel-physics-based-alternate-wheel-collider-api-only/)

-     Firespiter Plugin for Vtol to work (please download latest update from Github, https://github.com/snjo/Firespitter/releases, only the dll is necessary, Big thank you Snjo;
   http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/22583-firespitter-propeller-plane-and-helicopter-parts-v71-may-5th-for-ksp-10/

-     Module Manager, thank you Sarbian for this one;
    (to automatically addon implementations, like config for Remote Tech antenna, TAC life Support, Filter Extensions, etc)
   http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/50533-121-module-manager-275-november-29th-2016-better-late-than-never/

-     Smokescreen for the particle effects of vtol engine. Many thanks for Nazari for the particles and Sarbian for the plugin;
   http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/64987-121-smokescreen-270-extended-fx-plugin-dec-18th/

-     B9PartSwitch to have option to switch from fuel types in parts that have fuel option (download from original forum thread), big thank you to Blowfish;
   http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/140541-122-b9partswitch-v153-dec-8-switch-fuels-models-nodes-and-more/

-     A temporary mod that will bring a middle cockpit camera is HullCameraVDS. Just install it to have a middle camera pressing "]" or "[" (this is what I choose on the plugin, you can put your own keys) to cycle between game and cockpit Camera. Big thank you for Linuxgurugamer that are supporting this mod, and the creator of it, Albert VDS;
 
https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/145633-18x-hullcam-vds-continued/

-    TAC Life Support. Besides it it's not a hard dependency, i large recomment it, so some parts have volume just to accomodate Life Support Resources;

-    KAS and KIS. This one too, is not a hard dependency, but will evolve the use of parts, for example, Omicron have Fuel hatches just to use with KAS connectors.

-    Universal Storage 2. This is not a hard dependency too, but like KAS and KIS, have parts that can be better used, like connector just for US2 Life Support containers (US2 for TAC Life Support).

-    Remote Tech. Will work with remote tech too.


*Some of the example craft files need Universal Storage (US) to open;

*Some particles for the vtol engine are from HotRockets, Nazari1382, So many thanks from that


Any question, please use Omicron Development Forum Thread:

Have Fun.

:D

the mod is really awesome... but there are some bugs

when i set the action groups with the toggle windows or hatchs some animation not works... or stop animating

That is a limitation of the module animation, from KSP. Happens when we have more then one animation on same part, like crew modules. I will update the mod with an 3rd part mod that solve that, and able for sound fx too, i will probably use Firespiter modules, because i already have used it for engine, and have it already dependent. That module support for multilayer animation and sound effects.

Soon

another thing:

the docking port crew module have an issue with the green ball attachment point... i mean in the vab i connect the docking port crew module to another part... and than i cant connect any other part to it

For now, you will not be able to connect anything to the docking port of crew_two part, only on top and bottom parts, beside the surface attachments. This is because the docking port should be in extended mode to use it. I can change this in the future, but i don't see much purpose. 

Next update will follow with sound fx on some parts and the animation solved for crew parts;

:wink:

You making me confusing. One thing is the crew part, another is the docking port. They are in the same part, the crew two, but are not the same thing.

You can't connect directly in the docking "node", besides when you are on flight. (no in VAB, SPH). But you can connect another part to all crew parts, as i show here.

Green YES, Red NO. And all parts are suppose to connect only one part to each one green ball.

Strange...

You see in the vídeo it works normally here...

You try to attach while holding ALT too (force stack only)?

I will release an update late today, so, gone look into that, but can't find at could be.
