Does Valor fit into Japris well?

Somewhat. Valor is a little close to Retuo's orbit, in real life it would be enough to knock Retuo and it's moons out of it's orbit. It would need to be moved much farther out.

Hmm.... I'll look into making a config for it once the core system is done.

I guess you could just do something like

@Kopernicus:AFTER[Valor (or whatever your folder is named)]
{
	@Body[Valor]
	{
		@Orbit
		{
			[change orbital parameters here]
		}
	}
}

Yes, I was planning on doing that.

Today I tried Valor out, was not dissappointed.

Tho, when i tried to land, in both planets was a failure, Theta's veerrryyy thin atmosphere is not enough to land something with parachutes, but the still-existant lifting forces make impossible turning retrograde for a powered landing, so you need to plan everything correctly.

As with orton, I was excpecting something like the Mùn, I did my de-orbit burn and when I was at 15KM from the surface, and I was preparing my landing burn, I saw my speed was 2KM/s, Very high for a planet that size! There is not even a warning telling us that it's a Tylo rip-off!!

But so far, textures are great, the planets itself are not that useful snce it's hard to land in both of them, and there is basiclly nothing in both.

Actally, not true. It's roughly the same size as Kerbin and 2km/s is normal for a planet that size. It's like Tylo. It wouldn't make much since if it were small, as it used to be a tropical paradise

Yes there is. But there should be some kind of radius in the OP so we know before we download.

I agree. It's atmosphere should be much thicker. Theta looks a little odd because it looks like a hot desert so far away from Kerbin. It's possible for something like that to occur, but to the average person it looks strange.

Plenty of Ore^TM  coming soon to a Moon near you!

It is strange.

It's supposed to be a challenge. For the  Ore^TM  that is coming soon. Both Theta and Orton will have tons of resources.

 

Also, @Commodore_32, could I use some of your screenshots? I will give credit.

Idk why either.

Thanks to you and some other planet pack creators, I have been inspired to make my own planet mod. I hope we both continue to further develop our mods!

Which is better...

Congratulations! It looks great, and I'm excited to see it progress!

[Maple Kerman]

Thank you! I will keep working on it for the time being.

[Misguided Kerbal]

So, I know this mod isn't even half done yet. But I've been throwing around an idea of a config that makes Theta the home planet. It'll probably be a good challenge, with the really thin but annoying atmosphere with just a tiny amount of oxygen. Would anyone be interested in this coming to fruition, maybe?

[Maple Kerman]

@Misguided KerbalI would personally prefer it if the system layout stayed the way it is, I like Kerbin as the homeworld.
But, you do you.

EDIT: I didn't read the "config" part. It would definitely be interesting if you could do so. As long as the base version of the mod remains the same, I'm on board.

I think @Misguided Kerbal meant it as an optional config. It would be a fun idea though for a challenge.

Yes, I was thinking of it as an optional config, sort of like the mods "Laythe Space Program"

[Maple Kerman]

Yeah, I realized that just now.

Hello?

I guess, if you want to hear about progress, here's the breakdown: there's been no progress. I've been busy these past few weeks, teachers have been cramming homework. I have a life, y'know

[Maple Kerman]

@Misguided KerbalMakes sense. Hopefully you'll be able to find some time to work on this again.

Emphasis on Hopefully.

A kipper is a whole herring, a small, oily fish, that has been split in a butterfly fashion from tail to head along the dorsal ridge, gutted, salted or pickled, and cold-smoked over smouldering woodchips. In Britain, Ireland and some regions of North America, kippers are most commonly consumed for breakfast.

It's for 1.9.1, but my version is 1.10.1. Is this available? Can it be updated so I can enjoy it?

It should work fine on all versions above 1.8.1! It's just that I had to put a version number for it, and I'm running 1.9.1.

[Kerbal Productions]

When I tried it, I did not see the planet. Please guide me on the installation

Please elaborate the full steps, maybe I forgot something, etc.

Because I have Kopernicus (wait... I THINK ITS KOPERNICUS! I FORGOT KOPERNICUS)
