Yup! I kept adding "2's" to my math and it kept getting closer.. After 8, I decided I'd round up and call it close.. (For KSP.. Never for real life.) Divide by .9, then multiply by 1.1 sounds a LOT better.. LOL

I made a capsule with a hatch and ladder.. (I'm VERY new..) Absolutely check out the links that Nookos provided.. Very helpful. Also, I can't remember the post here in the forums, but I watched a video suggested by Nli2Work (I think is the name) and it helped me A TON! ( _)I ended up watching all of it, and Part 2 of it.. Hope that helps... :-)

As usual, you're right on top of it Randazzo.. I honestley have no idea what happened.. I actually deleted the folder from GameData, but when you asked for screenshots, I put it back in. Go figure.. It worked right.. (I have no idea..) Maybe a glitch when I first tried? It was, after all, my first attempt ever and have since made 2 tanks and a capsule. Oh, Made my first engine too.. Nothing I'd share, but the basic shape and it worked.. I have a lot of learning left to go... I guess that if others have this same issue, remove the "GameData/<your folder>/<your part name>" folder and try copying again? I tried to re-create the issue, but it didn't happen. It just worked as expected.. (Even with the odd ratio..) By the way.. I did some math.. I read the ratio was 1.67 (ish) ... I found that if I take the LF and then multiply by 1.223, that typically gets the proper amount of Oxidizer needed.. Am I off on that? Thanks again!!

Randazzo, You were certainly right about having many collision meshes.. Shouldn't be an issue.. (I have no animations) I actually added 2 capsule colliders as well for the "Airlock" and the "Ladder"... Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction! Aces

sumghai, Thanks for that.. I just learned something too.. Sorry I wan't helpful hraban..

Just a thought... Have you tried creating in 4.2.2 and then importing to 4.6.6? I don't know if that will work, but might be worth a try to test. (I am VERY new to KSP and modding. Feel free to ignore me..) Aces.

I still don't know why this happened, so it's an open question.... However, I have since created a fuel tank and a capsule that both work. I don't want to mark this as answered because it really wasn't answered. It could be a good thread for others that experience the same... Aces

Ok.. Sorry about that.. Wish I had a better answer, but I don't.. Hope it works out! My best! Aces

Ok, Thank you again! I think I'll try putting the mesh colliders back and see what happens. At least I know the Box collider works... Trial and error from here..

OH!! So if I were to texture the inside, I'd have to put it in the spaces directory or something (Not there yet).... I just left it thinking it was needed.. Hmm.. Well thanks again!!! I can breathe now.. LOL!! :-) - - - Updated - - - Randazzo, Does that mean that having 2 mesh colliders on my 2 seperate objects would have worked then? Or would that be a problem? It's working now with the Box Collider, but wouldn't the 2 mesh colliders be better (more in line with the model) ? Just a curious follow up.. It's working so I won't knock that.... :-)

Randazzo, you are incredible!!! (I'd love an explanation about the Internal section, but that could be another post sometime..) I changed it back to the mk1 and IT FLEW!!! Some screenshots for you since you helped SO much! (It's always the simple things isn't it... lol)

Internal? I'm not sure I know what you mean, but Heck! I just found the log you were referring to.. I think you're right. (Please forgive me as a noob..)

Honestly I don't know if the game is throwing an error in the log.. All I can seem to do is exit after that happens. I'll grab a screenshot now. (Please know, I am not a designer so it looks bad, but I'll send it...) LOL - - - Updated - - - Is this what you meant?

My Unity object is as follows: Game Object --Capsule ----Hull ----Docking I tried removing the mesh colliders from both the hull and the docking objects. Then I added a box collider around the capsule object. Still didn't work. Same results..

I don't have a mac, but a quick search on the web found this page. http://www.filetips.org/how-to-open/dds.html Hope it helps, Sorry if not.. Aces
