EatThePath Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 An alternative to the tricoupler, this lets you run a side-by-side triple stack without fiddling with radial decouplers. Comes with variants at different angles to allow some extra design freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soldats Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 I have messed around with these modules quite a bit and a word to the wise: Use stabilizers EVERYWHERE!The rockets are very close together and they have a tendency to knock into each other and bounce around especially when using multiples of this module together. Still having 12 liquids firing all at once is quite awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EatThePath Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 I just uploaded a new version. The previous version would work fine, but would not reload rockets properly after starting KSP again. This problem should be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyromaniac605 Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 This things are great, but can I request that you have -degree versions? for example you have the 60 degree rotated one, so there should be a -60 degree rotated one on the other side to balance it out. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molo Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Pyromaniac, isn't that the 30° part? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EatThePath Posted July 10, 2011 Author Share Posted July 10, 2011 no, the -60 degree part would be the 120 degree. My to-do list for next pack is 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135, 150 and 165 degree versions. It'll clutter the build panel up and be tedious to configure for me, but it should open up some build freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyromaniac605 Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Cool, when can we expect this new version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EatThePath Posted July 10, 2011 Author Share Posted July 10, 2011 When I do it. Maybe tomorrow. It could easily be later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molo Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Oh, I see.Different topic, ish: what about a 1+1 coupler? Basically an asymmetrical offset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EatThePath Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 I hadn't considered a 1+1 before. Not a terrible idea. I'll add it to my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soldats Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I hadn't considered a 1+1 before. Not a terrible idea. I'll add it to my list.with all the wonderful rotations i hope? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EatThePath Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 Hopefully by the time I get to it (the list is long and many faceted!) part rotation will be a feature of the VAB, but otherwise yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feldopropane Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 thank you for these they work great ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austupaio Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Cool pieces, thanks for these. I'm making something of a large pack of pieces at the moment, would you mind if I used your pieces as a base?I totally understand if you want to keep them to yourself, but my Orky rockets don't really mix and match too well with everyone's very NASA bits and bobs.

Sunday Punch Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Oh, I see.Different topic, ish: what about a 1+1 coupler? Basically an asymmetrical offset.I have made just such a thing:Have a look at my wobbly rockets thread if you'd like to download them and my other parts.

EatThePath Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 Austupaio: I don't see a problem in that, provided credit is given where due. General: I'm making a new thread in the other forum more suited for this. It has a pack with all the rotations I mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
