that thread sums up how i feel about the new drag perfectly.

nukes have the worst ISP while in atmo so your high atmo to LKO transition would not work you still need regular rockets for the final push, once your in space though you should be good to go. you could make a plane with very little oxi and a couple LVN for that nudge then completely switch to nukes which are also very heavy so you would probably want to use these on a bigger SSTO

[1.3.0] Kerbal Engineer Redux 1.1.3.0 (2017-05-28)
endl replied to cybutek's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
heres the craft file, it should be stock i think all i used on this was stock revamp and tweak scale, but i removed those parts (rcs part and solar panels) so it should work for you im not sure which log file your after but this is the ksp txt file i have -

[1.3.0] Kerbal Engineer Redux 1.1.3.0 (2017-05-28)

i added TWR and total thrust to the hud window and after a certain altitude they stop tracking those stats and just give me 0 for both -
when you cant do that in a GAME thats when its no longer fun, if you force the game to become more hard simulation you will drive away the people who like to design from the game, if ssto all wind up looking pretty much the same because drag values only make one wing profile viable it will turn off alot of people. even then if you want to build a composite wing, even as a delta it doesnt work well.
-
my wing profile is actually more realistic then what "works" with the current drag balance as you can see the shape is pretty close to delta the only problem is that its a composite wing and the drag balance will not let it space
-
yea i had a feeling cutting down on wing would fix it but then it would look strange, and unrealistic, i was considering using near, but its not updated for 1.0 i really dont want to use far as its getting to be too much for my cpu.
-
you should provide a screen shot, but one reason could be as you lift your wings are flexing causing the gear to become misaligned and bouncing from one side to the other, one way to fix this is through the magic of struts, strut your main wing parts to body or the wheel housing to body usually fixes this issue. if that still doesn't solve it, its either uneven thrust but you would notice that or the gear is still misaligned.
-
i made a large ssto, and from everything im being told (and my experience with far pre 1.0) this plane should fly, its got good TWR im doing a speed run correctly but i cant break 1 km/s on larger craft designs, only small planes work for me. ive come to think that its because i have a composite wing instead of a solid piece and the game is punishing my wing design with excessive drag, anyway heres some Screen shots with kerbal engineer stats that are relevant personally i think this design should be able to space
-
my numbers are good but i cant seem to gain any speed 15-20k do you need like 20twr now? i have a hard time breaking 1km/s on anything but small aircraft with 2+ twr

are there any mods that fit the round 2.5m modules in a plane cockpit configuration?
-
hey roverdude will you be adding this to the usi catalog soon? since this is no longer in the WIP section of the forums. also if its not too much to ask but could you include the patch readiness for KSP in the catalog it would be nice to have a master list on the catalog page itself without having to double check each thread, im sorry i know its hard for you to support so many things but your such a "awesomerover" its hard for me to keep track of what mods are playable from you.

Can you iterate on conditions for death related to this mod im a bit confused as you talk about vacation being the penalty or did you mean something like standard death is still possible?

is there any advice for trying to get a kerbal into an access hatch located directly above said kerbal from the ground, i tried attaching two ladders at right angles from each other but the kerbal would not transition over in either direction

new aero troubles, possible bug?
endl replied to endl's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
i did use symmetry, looks like its a known bug then. no the wings being upside down dont cause this, its because i have some wings sloped down its creating lift in the wrong direction as you can see in the picture, i have a mirrored wing angled in the opposite direction i was hoping this would create a neutral lift, the plane still flies but im having problems reaching orbit, so i was thinking it might not be getting enough overall lift. -
so i have two issues one seems to be most likley a bug, that being the mk2 bicoupler does not seem to feed fuel equally to the engines, as you can see i have two radial intakes feeding inline to the bicoupler yet one engine seems to cut out even at low altitude. the second problem is some how i am generating inverse lift, i took a picture of the interior of the wing structure i basically created a box to form the wing profile and struted everything together, is there anyway to form a wing profile without generating negative lift when "boxing" parts together, i thought if i had the wings meet it would cancel the neg lift out

dds4ksp is the conversion tool i dont need a list of tools from the now closed ddsloader thread, i need to know if the tool is still functioning properly for 1.0
