Jarin Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Ah, forgot about KAS. Okay, I'm thinking finally getting some use out of those giant wheels and making a mobile mega-refinery. Sure, efficiency will be lousy, but it's something for the ground team to do while I'm waiting for that mini jool-probe to get where it's going.

Tharios Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Ya know what would make rovers more interesting? Ball wheels. Spheres in sockets that can rotate in any direction. Now that would make ground-docking easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tharios Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I use KAS to transfer fuel via pipes.Of your could just put a docking port on the bottom of one of your launch clamps which makes ground docking easier.So...looked all over, and the search is not cooperating with me. What is this KAS so many speak of, and where can I find it? (Please don't say the Spaceport...it's a wretched hive of scum and villainy). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tharios Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) Thanks, forsaken.Edit: And now I feel monumentally stupid because I passed it half a million times at the bottom of the mod library list.

Alcari Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 So, in carreer mode, how do I actually use upgraded parts? I've bought them in the science building, but in the VAB it still says that it needs a purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrNuke Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I'd like to see these charts using a consistent intensity scale (although it'd be pretty difficult to get Jool/Kerbol and the other bodies onto the same scale, so perhaps two different scales). That will make the differences between the bodies much more apparent at a glance; currently you have to compare them strictly by the numbers since the shapes are identical.You could always use this chart to figure out where the best concentrations of antimatter are located at.However you do have a good point, I might try and consolidate the Flux charts into a more singular graph fashion once I finish the science chart(s). And the reason that they are similar in shape is because there is lot of meaningless blue (low flux) that got removed to reduce the RAM usage of the figures when I was generating the charts on my computer.

IndigoCypher00 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I seem to have a problem downloading this mod in .22. I had the last version since .21. When I start up KSP, the loading screen gets stuck when it starts to load in the Interstellar parts. First the MPD engines weren't working so I deleted them. Now the thermal nozzles won't load. Do we know of a fix for this? Thanks. I really want to use this mod to extend the length of my career playthroughs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason_25 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I have started working with this mod again, and have found a bad bug. When I resume a quicksave or load the game near Jool, the generators do not seem to throttle up in response to my DT Vista engines and there is nothing I can do about it. Current power shows zero and the megajoules just keep draining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndigoCypher00 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Ah....a lot. Firespitter, KOSMOS, NovaPunch (huge I know), MechJeb 2, HL Airships, Pirated Weapons, Romfarer Lazor, and HyperEdit. Would purging some of the useless structural parts from NovaPunch help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tharios Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 So this is the list of mods I'm considering applying to stock KSP along with KSPI...Procedural Fairings (Highly optional, second to go if too many mods)Procedural Wings (Highly optional, first to go if too many mods)FAR (Seems to be a bit of a no-brainer to keep)KW Rocketry (Also highly useful and I keep hearing it's a bit better than NP)B9 Aerospace (Seems to be just about as useful and important as FAR)KAS (Also almost indispensably useful in KSPI specifically)Kerbal Joint Reinforcement (Seems like a no-brainer to keep part counts down, but third to go if too much)UbioZur Welding (Also seems really too useful not to have for keeping part counts down)Kethane (Seems to be fairly common and useful, but not at all necessary)Extra-planetary Launchpads (Would seem to be a no-brainer for KSPI, and Kethane, considering their need for off-planet outposts)Would it be worthwhile to use only part of B9, if I choose to go with the Procedural mods? Essentially just take out all the wings and such? Or perhaps are the procedural wings simply pointless with the variety B9 offers?Would it be worthwhile in the same case to take the fairings and such out of KWR for the same reason? Should I skip KWR entirely since FAR seems to make the stock rockets significantly more effective?I haven't even downloaded any of these yet, because I wanted input first. So, suggestions?

forsaken1111 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I don't know about the wings but I always delete all of the fairings if I use procedural fairings mod. Its so good you don't need any others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its so good you don't need any others.Seems like the best thing for me to do at first, would be to pop in B9 and Procedural Wings, and see which wings perform better?I mean, if I can make a wing any size and shape I want, and get lift that scales properly out of it...I can't imagine needing anything else except perhaps tail fins of varying types. And probably not even those, since I could conceivably just make vertical wing fins of any size and shape I need to get the job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Current power shows zero and the megajoules just keep draining.I did some more testing with this bug, and I have a save that is just within the orbit of Laythe, that is not bugged, but a save with an altitude of around 4300k above Jool is bugged.

Xentoe Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I guess since the new Tecloader Update (in the Plugin) this Techtree loading is notmore soooo essential.It does seemingly now work better with several Tectrees, as long the additional "nodes" do not differ real.

Fractal_UK Posted November 1, 2013 Author Share Posted November 1, 2013 If you're having problems selecting the tech tree with treeloader, try downloading this tree.cfg file and place it in your game's save file folder (alongside your persistence and quicksave files).
