Uh... where are the new threads? And when can we just update to the new KAS? can we even?

yes is very good first

Thanks! @MaverickSawyer apparently the fixed engine is only on my desktop, and I'm not going to start that up until I finish work for the day. It'll be up tonight hopefully.

Whoops, sorry for not replying to that. I saw you know how to use Git - I'm a bit busy at the moment with IRL stuff, can you log a Github issue so that I at least fix it before the next update? I always try and go through those and clear them before I make a release.

grats on another release @silentvelcro!

Err... shoot. I just checked, I don't think it was uploaded. In any case, I need to try and get a new thread in Addon Dev anyways.

Fix was uploaded to Git last night.

What exactly did you change? Just so I understand what was causing the issue. IIRC ours are 0.9375m instead of 1.25m and thus don't actually fit each other. Well, when we started we wanted to basically cover Blue Streak, Black Arrow, Europa, and every Europa 2 / 3 proposal we could possibly find. That turned out to be an unrealistic goal, right now we're just trying to get the basic stuff out that already existed in old Tantares. The refreshed Blue Streak, Black Arrow, Black Knight. If there's enough concentrated requests for it (instead of people asking for different stuff every other day...) then we'll definitely come back and add to it. Thanks for catching that bug, I'll take a look at it.

Cold feet..?

What could this be...

No. @Sgt.Shutesie

From my explanation to @Nertea, since I was talking to him about this...

Honestly at this point I'd prefer that the official craft repository doesn't include any of the non-official parts. Just wait until I get around to making them. Ladders are a tremendous pain, I've never seen a good guide on how to place them to ensure that they actually work... I'm not sure what you mean. Probably. First I'm hearing of it, I don't actually know how antennas work ever since CommNet was added. There is an adapter part inserted between the CM and the docking port, could that be it?

Cold as ice.

Realized how bad my Unity materials have been after messing around with Maya's... was able to change some settings in the KSP materials (not on the back end, i just wasn't adjusting the sliders correctly this entire time) and was able to get much better looking metal...

MOAR PICS - guest starring @Beale's Black Arrow first stage! Yesterday I basically finished the Blue Streak's engine and the main fuel tank, and started work on the adapter tank and the extension tank (the ribbed part below the Centaur interstage in the right of the first pic). The engine will have toggleable sides - the originals and a smooth variant for strapping SRBs to the side. A separate toggle enables/disables the shrouds that protect the engine bells from debris and flames from strap ons. Note that in the first image, the rocket on the right has a stretched main fuel tank below the extension tank. I am planning on also making short tanks by cutting out middle segments from the smooth and ribbed sections of the main first stage tank. The smooth oxidizer tank segments - which are balloon construction, similar to Atlas - will not be surface attachable. As a reminder, these will not be part of BDB, but are a joint project between myself and @Beale (And we'll probably beg @Jso to balance it and make any configs we need). Visit his thread for ongoing updates on the Black Arrow parts - he's got some cool stuff coming down the line! The first release will focus exclusively on the British Blue Streak and Black Arrow, along with their variants. There may or may not be additional expansions made to cover the Europa rocket line, but the primary focus is just updating the old Tantares NLV parts.

I really don't understand this thread. It's the same as building a scale train set, or scale models. Kerbal is ~2/3 IRL scale, so we model things at about 2/3 scale. 1m is still 1m, but the parts themselves are scaled.

Don't worry about those SRBs, they're pretty far off so I haven't really given thought to how to organize them / what needs to be included. Alright, here's.... not Atlas? That can't be right. Well, with @Beale putting some more work into Black Arrow I took another whack at getting the greebles for the Blue Streak engine done. I'm a lot happier with it now, which isn't saying much. Shown here with a Titan fuel tank, since I was testing how it looked next to BDB stuff, and the Blue Streak tank needs to be redone with better UVs.

1.25m, it's the Black Arrow first stage.
