ColdJ Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) License CC-BY-SA-4.0 https://spacedock.info/mod/3005/R.N.D Welcome to R.N.D My clone of an R2D2 like droid. All the ability of an advanced probe with mobility built in. It has a motive wheel attachment that retracts into the body and an engine thruster attachment that gives it just enough lift to get up and over things, including being able to get in and out of my X-wing in the X-wink vs Kie Fighter mod. If you have got the Rocket Sounds Enhancement mod the wheel will make sound. The Droid's wheel is designed to be relatively flat so you will need to wiggle a little when changing angles. The bottom of the Droid is set up to be able to dock and mates to a dock plate in the X-wink vs Kie Fighter mod to do what R2D2 can do in an X-wing. The default orientation of the droid is up and it needs to be switched to forward for driving. I will put a craft file in the folder with an already set up RND. Be warned if you still have steering and reaction wheels set up on the same keys you will most likely tip over when steering. When undocking you will need to click "control from here" before moving off. RND has a ladder collider on it's back so that it can give Kerbals a piggy back Enjoy. Updated to 1.2.0 on the 15/6/2022 Change Log. Added 2 new droids. A BB8 with a rolling body and a Gonk Power Droid. The file system is all new so you will need to remove the old mod and put this one in instead. The BB8 can dock under the body and go in the X-wing socket, you just need to adjust the lift to the shorter body. The Gonk can dock on the top of it's head.The Gonk has a socket set up at the back that works with the Kerbal Attachment System. I have also included a power plug attachment that you add to the body that slides out when armed. It is basically a grabber with transfer enabled so that the Gonk can power things up. The Gonk is basically a strong RTG. As I was unable to make it shuffle and move, the Gonk has a disc that you attach to allow it to move like a monocycle. When you toggle the gear, the legs retract into the body so that the disc can touch the ground to move. Remember to engage SAS first to stay upright. RND and BB8 now have 6 colour variations. All the droids now use the new light system and also cast light when the lights are turned on. RND's thruster engine is now slightly stronger. BB8 has a single RTS to allow it to jump up on to things. The Gonk has a strong all direction RTS. This is designed to go with My X-wink vs Kie Fighter mod. https://spacedock.info/mod/3004/X-wink vs Kiefighter Edited June 14, 2022 by ColdJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As to the guy who keeps saying B-wing, I may make it in the future but when I do make a new model the first is likely to be a Y-wing.

Eli the Space Nerd Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) I seem to be having problems with this mod. For some reason, the R.N.D appears to have no color on it or is just completely black. Is there a fix for this issue? Please let me whenever possible. - Eli Edited May 27, 2022 by Eli the Space Nerd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason, the R.N.D appears to have no color on it or is just completely black. Contents of the RND folder should look like this. If the three ".dds" files are in there and you haven't changed anything inside the config file then you should have texture. If your folder is missing them then that would probably be the problem. Usually it would show up white or grey if they can't be found. If you have any texture replacing mods, there may be a conflict. If it is not this then try a fresh copy off of Spacedock and install manually. That is the best I can do for you as it has been working fine on all the other installs I know about. Good Luck.

Hi, I downloaded a fresh copy off Spacedock. It is working fine for me. RND and BB8 share the same folder but use different texture files, so maybe yours have got corrupted somehow. There is the possibility a different mod is causing problems, though I don't know why that would be if BB8 is working right. If nothing has been edited in the config file and all the textures it references are still in the folder they came in. It should be working. I would remove completely the RND you have installed and then get a fresh copy, only from SpaceDock, as I don't know if something could have happened in a different repositry. Try that. If it is installed fresh with no editing of anything and still doesn't come out right then something I can't fix is happening with your KSP install.
