Oh! I remembered my other question: would adding Parallax into an existing game break it, if I'm using GU? The thought being that I start a GU game now, & then re-add Parallax2 later?

Parallax is purely visual and as long as mods are compatable with the Parallax version, it won't affect them except for visually. 
That said, GU is currently not compatable with Parallax 2 - this is being worked.  If you want to add Parallax 2, then you will have to delete the parallax folder in GU/_Systems/_X/_Configs/GU_Patches.

First comment in this GREAT MOD thread! 
I finally got to Tau Ceti after several tries using KSPIE, but now I'm experimenting a hard fps downfall in cloudy worlds. Im only using EVE and Scatter, should i install the GU Stock clouds instead? It would help? If not, how can i make the GU worlds cloudyless? Thx in advance...

@StarCrusher96 I've added Lich to my GU instance and installed Instantiator 1.0 but sadly, no pulsar effects.  I'm on KSP 1.12.3 and have seen reports that Instantiator isn't working so well for that version.  Thoughts?

Edit:  Ok.. I feel 6 ways the fool.  RTFM.  Remove exampleconfig.cfg from INSTANTIATOR.  How about that.  If you follow the directions, stuff works.

Wow!  The view from Dragur would be <briefly> amazing and exciting.  I'm gonna make it my Zoom background once I run a mission out there to get pix.

Hi, Is there a way to remove the lens flares from the stars ? since they are  visible from the orbit of Kerbin and it looks a bit odd

Thanks

Check the GU Settingsfile :) change RemoveLenseDirt = False to True

For some reason, even if I set the scale to 2.5x in the GU general config and after making sure that Sigma Dimensions is installed correctly, the planets are not rescaled and remain the original size. A little help please.

Got fixed for the next update :)

Well this looks amazing!

I have a question though: are there any plans to add the black hole at the center of the Galaxy? After all it's an important destination in Elite Dangerous for example...

Enable Galaxy mode in the Settingsfile -> check installationguide.

I just joined the discord server and saw.  My my..  I shall call this cataclysmic event - the StarCrusher Kraken.  I was slightly bummed for a few minutes, but then saw the opportunity for an interesting story line with what I've already got.

I'm curious.  I have a fair bit of infrastructure set up in Alpha Centauri A in orbit of various bodies.  Will orbital things stay with their respective bodies?  To include things in orbit of AC-A itself?  Things being relays, stations, ships.

Between systems.  It would be spiff if Kespilon Kirilani turned out to be closer to Nova Kirbani than to the Kerbin system.

Thanks and thanks for this awesome mod.

I'm sorry, but consider it all lost. Proxima remains the same.

The star chart is a thing of beauty!  Thank you.

Ah well.  Space exploration is dangerous.  I guess there will be a naming of schools and monuments coming soon. 

If I may ask..  I get where it's easy (for you, anyway) to move celestial bodies.  But how is that vessels around those bodies will be destroyed?  A complete renaming?

Trying to install via ckan and i've got parallax, eve and scatter installed and i've deleted the parallax folder in the GU systems folder but for some reason the water on kerbin keeps disappearing am I doing something wrong?

I have found that if you have stars/systems installed but the entry in GU-GENERAL_Settings.cfg for that system is set to "False" that the water of Kerbin will disappear.

My recommendation is to pull GU from your game.  Start the game so it cleans up and check that the ocean came back and the sun is acting properly.  Then add GU_Core and just one system.  Approach it incrementally and isolate what causes the issue.

FYI - Here's a list of .cfg files in the latest version of GU that have mismatched opening and closing curly braces, along with the number of (opening braces, closing braces). Not sure if these mismatches actually will produce problems, of course, but... they might:

'/gu/configs/gu_patches/rescale_sigma/10x.cfg': {'braces': (5, 6)},
'/gu/_systems/_alphacentauri/_celestials/04_kaith.cfg': {'braces': (95, 94)},
'/gu/_systems/_epsiloneridani/_celestials/_asteroidbelts/asteroids.cfg': {'braces': (67, 65)},
'/gu/_systems/_lich/_configs/gu_patches/_singularity/singularitylich.cfg': {'braces': (2, 4)},
'/gu/_systems/_tauceti/_celestials/06-04_celae.cfg': {'braces': (41, 42)},

EDIT: Also of note, here is a list of files that can't easily be read due to an encoding error, presumably - possibly need to ensure valid utf-8. No idea if this will affect anything, no clue how KSP handles encoding/decoding, but if it's silently failing to read these files because it's looking for utf-8 and using a similar encoder/decoder to default Python 3.11... who knows!:
