  1. Is there anything out atm that will give me flaps for my planes?
  2. Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to alter the interior view of a cockpit? I downloaded the C9 mod, and although the upgraded mk 2 stuff looks great from the outside, the interior is utterly unuseable. Is it possible to change the interior view of this piece to that of the mk1 cockpit? Also, is it possible to change the view point within the cockpit itself? I'd like to be sitting a little higher up. Thanks!
  3. Thanks for the reply. I had kind of realised MechJeb didn't have that functionality at the moment, I was just wondering whether it was in the pipeline for development. Autopilot and autothrottle tend to go hand in hand afterall. The problem with building symmetrically, is that multi-stage shuttles are fundamentally asymmetrical. This was more of a technical exercise to see if I could design a classic NASA style shuttle. I had been trying to use the throttle limiters to balance the CoM and CoT but encountered two problems: 1) Eyeballing the collinearity is inaccurate and pretty difficult and tedious. Plus, the starting point for each stage needs to be ascertained seperately, and changed midflight which is nigh on impossible, without some kind of automation. 2) The CoM constantly changes as the fuel is used, and therefore the CoT must be varied in real-time. Thanks! That has helped stability no end. I'm still running into trouble it high altitude, but I think I might be able to control that with a well timed manual throttle limitation! Begs the question why the base program doesn't do this already. Surely keeping you pointing where you want to go is the whole point in thrust vectoring?
  4. Not sure if this has been discussed, but I was wondering if an auto-throttle feature was in development? I recently got KSP and I'm having hassle designing a shuttle system. The difficulty is that keeping the CoM and CoT perfectly inline as the fuel runs out, and the SRB's are jettisoned, is an extremely tough ask. Obviously this leads to some catastrophic failures! An auto-throttle feature that allowed real-time control over the throttle of the different engines would allow this difficult process to be automated. Not sure if this is possible?
