can't wait to put my dirty hands on it!

I am playing around a lot with the PBS mod and it puts a lot of fun in making ground bases, but i use it as well as hibernation and habitation sections for my cryoship. in case you did not already notice: Nils, the author of PBS announced some very interesting looking variable "garage" parts just before christmas which i think could fit perfectly in your capital ship design, but they are not released yet and of course i do not know if they will be in the nearer future or how far your design has already progressed - just wanted to mention it i love your stories btw! regards, martin

no additional stress besides RL at this time of year nils, take your time!

yeah, currently checking for the next update several times a day, because i have some ideas with the new garage that have to be tested :-)

Dear Nils, I just wanted to say 'Thank you' for this great mod, I am already having great fun with the Base parts and really looking forward to play with the announced garage etc. happy holidays and seasons greetings!

i thought so and understood the download link link for the old parts as a workaround - i'm no native speaker but the name "KAS v0.4 old parts for KAS v0.5 (optional)" insinuates it from my point of view, afaiu it, kospy built that download to allow the usage of savegames using old parts with the new KAS. apparently, i am handling the files wrong or some additional config file entries have still to be done, so i'm wondering if any other users had the same problem and possibly a solution for it ? hints are very welcome, thanks in advance if anybody can tell me if i did the install wrong or misunderstood anything. in the meantime i am switching back to v0.4.10 that will get the job done until i finish my current Duna mission. in any case, KAS is a great and essential mod, many thanks for updating it! best regards, martin

i need some help with a problem i could not find in this thread so far, i hope some of the experts here can give a hint to the solution: downloaded a fresh copy of KAS and KIS from curse.com yesterday - I did not use KIS until then, so it should be the latest version - and found that some the ships and rovers in my main savegame can not be loaded anymore due to some discontinued/missing KAS parts (the old winches and containers) - being told so by some error messages after loading my savegame. looking for a solution, i found the link to the KAS v0.4 old parts for KAS v0.5 (optional) in 'other downloads' and installed these as well: my first try was to copy the folder named KAS_v0-2 into GameData, so at this point i had two KAS folders in my Gamdata directory - KAS_v0 and KAS_v0-2. starting KSP again, i did not experience the error messages for ships that couldn't be loaded like before, but when jumping to one of the affected rovers the planet it was located on had disappeared along with the crew and it could not be moved at all, together with the error messages for missing texture and sound files (/Texture/Cable, /Sounds/winchSmallMotor etc.). sounded like a missing relative link to me (these files do exist, but in the "new" KAS folder), so my next try was to move the old parts folders from the KAS_v0-2 directory in the "parts" subfolder of the current KAS directory and restarted KSP - so success again. does anybody experience similar problems or can possibly help with a solution? is it intentional that ships with parts that are no longer included in KAS can not be loaded anymore, or should the old parts automatically be replaced by new ones (i.e. the containers)? best regards, mafs
