Cargo Transportation Solutions (WIP)

Actually - they work well for having a pretty stable structure to contain undockable sub-modules. That's what I used it for.

Hey Talisar (or anyone making a derivative version), I see that the "Large" (3.75m) parts still use size 2 attachment nodes. I don't know how much this affects connection strength, but it certainly has an impact on part catalog sorting mods. It would be good to fix that going forward. Thanks!

I stand corrected -- by chance, I only glanced at the config of the large adapter, which has a size 2 node on its "inside".

This is an amazing mod. I really hope it is updated for 1.0. Probably the most usefull mod made yet. Used with the USI colony mods its perfect.

Loaded it up and everything appears to be working (even attachment nodes) so no update should be needed for 1.0.

Also for great transport solutions for the MKS modules check out the Stork Delivery System.

Just what I needed to start colonising with MKS parts.

Just to confirm, are you sure there is no weirdness when interacting with nuFAR's voxelization?

Yay! Thx to update this mod

[taniwha]

Olympic1 sent me a PR to merge this into my "TalisarParts" github repository where I've got Talisar's spherical and toroidal tanks, and I have merged it in.

[Olympic1]

Thx for merging

First, I want to apologize because I can't seem to upload images to imgur today, so I can't show you what is happening.

I really want to use this mod to make a reusable MKS lander. The Arched Cargo Frame V2 would work perfectly for me. I first tried it and tweakscaled it out to 7.5 meters. While testing the frame on the launchpad it would resize itself back to the original size if I relaunched. It would do the same thing if I left to the space center and then returned to the flight. I tried 5 meters and the same thing. When it would resize itself it would leave all of the components I had attached hanging in mid-air as if the size hadn't changed.

I tried attaching a cargo adapter on one end and tweaking it, just to see what would happen. On a relaunch or visit to the spacecenter the frame would still resize, but the adapter would remain tweaked out to 5 or 7.5 meters.

I'm not sure if this issue has been addressed before. I didn't see any mention of it. I hope it can be fixed because your mod is definitely the answer to my needs.

Again, sorry for no images and thanks for the great work you already put into this thing.

Thats sounds like a tweakscale problem why not try using rescale = * to scale it ?

[Olympic1]

I had to use scale instead of rescale to fix this issue and now it still occurs.

[RichMac]

Honestly, I never thought of that. I was always afraid to dig into the files.

I just set the rescaleFactor value from 1 to 3. It definitely made the frame larger, but I am having the exact same resizing issues.

[jimmyjack]

This mod will not show up in the ckan list for me for some reason?

[taniwha]

I have created a thread to continue support of this wonderful mod. I wish to thank Talisar for his hard work and his generosity in releasing it under a license that permits us to maintain his work.

Also, thank you to Olympic1 and Kerbas ad Astra for their work.
