I shared the spaceship, here:

https://kerbalx.com/pmborg/10millionDv-v21

I have both instances of KSP from yesterday and today full "copy".

Let me know if more tests or screen shots are needed.

In the old picture I see you have 1000 ton of fusion fuel while in the later picture you have only 33 ton of fusion fuel, big difference

I concluded that the problem is not the engine, because the results on that ship with 2 parts are equal.

But with the all ship there is a big difference...

Once I have 3 monitors I am loading the 2 instances of KSP at the same time "before" and "after" upgrade :)

A print screen now of the 3 monitors:

  • Left side instance of yesterday.
  • Middle, instance of today.
  • Right monitor both installation directories.

Tomorrow I will discover what is going on... :) I hope with some trouble shooting.

Clearly its a staging issue, I notice that the second vessel uses 3 stages while the former uses 2, and the second stage where yoo use the fusion engine is only 40 ton, meaning its has only access to a limmited amount of fuel

Seems that the latest release caused the Convert-O-Tron-250 to no longer provide the option to produce Liquid Fuel. Was working yesterday before installing this latest version.

To my knowledge I haven't changed anything about th Convert-O-Tron-250. I have explicitely avoided any change and rather intoduce a seperate ISRU Converter.

Clearly this is not caused by KSPIE but rather a mod like

After so many hours trying to debug the issue, I give up, and just simple re-install "KSP-Interstellar-Extended" it using CKAN, the conflicts were resolved.

Solution:

Was to uninstall:

  • InterstellarFuelSwitch
  • KSP-Interstellar-Extended

And reinstall again using CKAN:

  • InterstellarFuelSwitch
  • KSP-Interstellar-Extended

 

Thanks for your support time!

Now I can concentrate again in a new interstellar Space-Ship and enjoy the new version! :)

I just tested the same craft I used a few days ago. It now reached 3300m/s before running out of fuel ( 2x m.a.t.t.o.c.k engine and 1x SCRamjet from mk2x). Having no issue with heat at all now. :)

I'm kinda wondering what the "missing pre cooler ratio" refers to though? It's shown on both the engines and pre coolers.

Is this the liquid metal reactor I requested? Gods is cool!

f5c1352b918746dee8dbce72fe16172a.jpg

Its actual an existing part model made by @SpaceMouse, but it had un uninspiring name (Solid Fuel Fission Reactor) and found the liquid metal reactor  a logical predecessor of the Liquid Fuel Molten Salt Reactor, they are both offer relatively high temperatures, which is pretty much required in space i you want any serious power production

I do not understand, that is, Far Future Technology and Interstellar are compatible? I always thought that FFT is an arcade version of Interstellar, and installing them will lead to misunderstandings.

well vanilla FFT engines are indeed more arcade, but a lot can be fixed with a module manager script. KSPIE already contains a  partial MM which I intend to extend t all engines allowing you to play with all FTT models with KSPIE balance.

So, try as I might, I cannot figure out how to deploy the Particle Accelerator Centrifuge.  I don't see any kind of "deploy" option on the PAW, and while I can start the reactor process, nothing I do makes it turn into a wheel.  Am I missing something?

I am having issues getting communications across multiple star systems, are the com satellites able to reach that far and if they can someone please explain how they work as I am having issues using them. thanks

What are you using as the transmitter and what is the transmit distance

Hello,

All the improvement look fantastic but please note that this release is not retro compatible with "old" "deadlus engine" because now there is only a  "deadlus engine2"

Is this really the idea? I will have to update my ships now with notepad++ to make them compatible with this version.
