NovaSilisko Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 The telescope looks like it\'s coming along great. Are you making a decoupler to go under the BACE engine? All bar the nano are blocked by the legs.Are you talking about the SE decoupler? It works fine for me...That said, I plan on making a specialized decoupler.

venku122 Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Since you made a set of mun base parts will you eventually get to finishing your space station concept? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

venku122 Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Once we get docking, quite.Me gusta. Will it be modular like probodyne or a set that forms one station design but can be interchangeable to make larger stations etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus KerBeard Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Are you talking about the SE decoupler?

I haven\'t tried the SE one, I only downloaded SE for the radial mount RCS tanks and the legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comradephil Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Making an optical telescope for BACE, after this, a radio telescope.That\'s a mortar tube! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWBBQ Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 About half of the time I use the small decoupler from Silisko Edition under the Probodobodyne engine, it blows up everything above it instead of decoupling it. Also, probe landing legs don\'t fit inside the shrouds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, probe landing legs don\'t fit inside the shrouds You have to position them 45 degrees away. Once we get animation it won\'t be a problem, though...

Cepheus Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I\'m gonna be far more likely to use that thing as an orbital telescope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The base of the BACE model is 1m, so it fits on top of a regular rocket nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NovaSilisko Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Should I make ALL bace modules stackable, or only the ones that have a stable part on top (eg, the habitat module and the cargo rack, you couldn\'t feasibly stack anything on top of the telescope) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cepheus Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Only the ones where it would make logical sense to stack; i.e. the habitat module, cargo, but not the solar thing, telescope, or things of a 'fragile' nature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panichio Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 For the cargo module, it looks a little weird the way it is. Would you be able to make payload fairings to go around it like a wall and you could deploy them to reveal the cargo. Something so that the fuel tank under it isn\'t bigger than what\'s on top of it...if you know what I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim_Barrett Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 There\'s already a pack in development by someone else, and I don\'t want to intrude on that...If you rise as a competition, it will only make both of your packs better. By your demeaning power to easily make excellent models you can raise the standards of everyone\'s parts.Or are you scared of 'losing'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NovaSilisko Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Competition will only degrade my motivation. But my motivation is already degraded by realization that I\'m not really getting much done. At this rate, neither of us will make anything.

Reflector Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 At this rate I might as well whip out Solidworks and start decimating some nozzles instead of working with that hellish thing called Blender so there are more than enough parts to cause KSP13.x to keep getting null pointer errors (Mostly Unity there).Nova you better finish or you\'ll have someone dumping 20k poly parts out. Parts that will murder lesser computers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eventually you\'ll wander away from simple mesh extrusions to modifiers and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volt Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Vanguard gets a WIN from me. Just spent an hour launching one into orbit inside a bloated Payload Fairing and then attempting reentry. Fudged up the first aerobraking pass and had to try again, then I found myself thrusting perpendicular to try and stay safely close to land as I reentered the second time. I literally passed over the edge of land at 1000m. So close to an ocean landing (failure under my rules).The extra pressure on the pilot of missions with this thing is great; my only grievance is that it glides like a brick, but then it wouldn\'t fit in a 3m fairing if the wings were larger.
