Fun! List the mods you currently play with 2014 edition

[jpinard]

Hoping to see many people list the mods they currently play the game with. I'm sure everyone can use ideas of what works together, and makes the game ore compete...as do I!

Cheers!

No. There are too many of them!

No. There are too many of them!

You can take a screenshot of your Gamedata directory. That will basically show all the mods.

I'm currently toying with RemoteTech 2 and seeing if I like any of the life support mods out there.

The lack of any part mods is deliberate, for a mod to be worth it (to me) it has to add something new to the game.

Next up I'll probable check out one of the solar system replacement mods, see how those are coming along.

If you notice, about 3/4ths of mine are not part mods. They are plugins that make the game do something different and/or make my life easier. I was toying with Arcturus thrust corrector, which makes ISP scale your thrust, not fuel consumption, but it doesn't seem to work in .23. I was looking forward to using that for the added realism (I can overbuild something to whackjob-level, it wouldn't make it harder).

I'm also thinking about adding your vertical thrust mod to help with the Tylo landing for my Grand tour. It requires finer thrust control than I can manage with tapping ctrl and shift.

Exactly why I wrote it in the first place. My keyboard is "heavy" in that the slightest tap of my finger on the shift key was a throttle change of 7 to 10% so powered skycranes landings were essentially impossible.

Even on the mun with a pretty basic lander I'd pogo all over the place until I ran out of fuel and crash.

If you do install it let me know how it goes. I'm currently re-writing the height control algorithms from scratch for the next version, but the velocity control part is rock solid.

i have around 67 mods currently installed wit somewhat lag and about a ten minute loading time that i spend playing mindcraft so i think it best to not put the list ok

[Dooz]

The mods. I use are!

Planet factory (moar planets)

Mechjeb 2 (only for launching into orbit im lazy and calculating deltav)

[Superfluous J]

Mods I use:

• Action Group Manager (Starting in the mid 60s)
  
• City Lights and Clouds (Starting with Episode 7)
  
• Enhanced Navball (Starting with Episode 7)
  
• Extraplanetary Launchpads (Had it installed for quite some time, never used it yet)
  
• Goodspeed Automatic Fuel Pump (Starting some time in the mid 70s)
  
• Hyperedit (Never in the game, for testing only)
  
• Kerbal Alarm Clock (I don't know exactly when I started using this, but it's one of the more necessary mods IMO)
  
• Kerbal Attachment System (Starting with Episode 10)
  
• Kerbal Engineer Redux (Starting with Episode 5)
  
• Kethane (Starting with Episode 17)
  
• Navball Docking Alignment Indicator (Started in the 20s I think)

• TweakableEverything (Some time in the 60s I think)
  
• Universe Replacer (Starting with Episode 7)

Resources I use:

• Delta-V Map (I don't know who made it! If you know, tell me so I can credit them!)
  
• Rareden's Skybox for Universe Replacer
  
• Interactive illustrated interplanetary guide and calculator for KSP (I refer to this as the "Transfer Calculator" in episode 17)
  
• Launch Window Planner for Kerbal Space Program (Starting with episode 26, a superior transfer planner to the above)
  
• KSP Aerobraking Calculator (For all your aerobraking needs. Use with caution and liberal use of F5, but it's a godsend compared to just guessing)
  

(No I didn't just put this together for this thread I made the list for my YouTube series so had it handy. I just updated it yesterday and it's already out of date though as I've added a couple more to the list. That's why it references numbers a lot, that's roughly the episode where the mod first appears)

Captain Sierra: Kerbal Isp Difficulty Scalar.

I'm not going for difficulty, I simply want realistic behavior on kerbal parts.

I'l give it a look though.

[NathanKell]

Captain Sierra: You can leave the Isps as is and just use the thrust corrector.

Not all mods are on the same copy of KSP, the last 3 mods each have their own install.

5thHorseman, that's my delta-v map but here is a slightly clearer one.

NathanKell, what mods do you play with?

Haha! Thank you, I've wanted to credit the rightful creator for months and now I can. Amusingly I use your newer one now but forgot to update the list. I've corrected both on my show page.

[Captain Sierra]

I need to know who made this chart:

Tells me everything I could ever need to know about transfers, except the delta V, but I've gotten good at predicting that.

[Woopert]

Been tinkering with B9 Aerospace today, add that to the list.
