JohnMcLane replied to ferram4's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
There is a mod called Deadly Reentry, maybe that could be interesting for you, but it changes thermodynamics of crafts not aerodynamics.- 14,073 replies

JohnMcLane replied to Reddy's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
@Reddy I will take a look at my problem again tomorrow and message you then. Thank you for the reply! -
MODULE { name = ModuleDockingNode referenceAttachNode = top nodeType = APAS_CXG gendered = true genderFemale = false acquireTorque = 0.5 acquireForce = 0.5 captureMinRollDot = 0.99999 <------ modify this parameter for both ports. change it to 0.99 or 0.9 and it should give it some more tolerance with docking. snapRotation = true snapOffset = 120 } Make shure to use a passive and a active docking port.

[1.12] KSP-RO - Realism Overhaul [16 May 2022]
JohnMcLane replied to Theysen's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Thats actually true, you would need to write a sstu.cfg for realfuels, maybe there is one with something like this: @PART[SSTU-SC-TANK-MFT-*]:FOR[RealFuels] { MODULE { name = ModuleFuelTanks volume = ..... type = ..... } } But iam no expert on that....- 2,215 replies

[1.12] KSP-RO - Realism Overhaul [16 May 2022]
JohnMcLane replied to Theysen's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
SSTU has a "Upgrade" (can be unlocked in the techtree) for its ModularFuelTank (Active Isolation or something like this), if i remember correctly, thats what you looking for. Edit: In the tank cfg there is a Upgrade available, so if RO dont cancel that and i remember seeing that unlock in the RO-Techtree, you have an option.

[1.2.2] Space Shuttle System new release 26.01.2017
JohnMcLane replied to DECQ's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Hey, have the same problem, on reentry the Shuttle is rolling on its side/back. What configs did you tried? This is a standard liftingmodule: MODULE { name = ModuleLiftingSurface useInternalDragModel = True deflectionLiftCoeff = 7.8 // 27,41m^2 dragAtMaxAoA = 0.6 dragAtMinAoA = 0.0 } (Its from GameData\Squad\Parts\Aero\airlinerWings\Mainwing.cfg) This is the from the shuttle: MODULE { name = ModuleLiftingSurface useInternalDragModel = True deflectionLiftCoeff = 9.5 // normally for the SS per wing ~125m^2, compared to 7,8 ~27,41m^2 its seems 9.5 is to low... dragAtMaxAoA = 1.2 dragAtMinAoA = 0.0 } and then there is the FARWingaerodynamicmodel-Module: we dont have that one.... but i think that FAR puts his modules in every part via ModuleManager. -
PEGAS - Powered Explicit Guidance Ascent System - devlog
JohnMcLane replied to Reddy's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
@Reddy Thanks for the response I read the tutorial again, maybe i overread it the last time or i forgot it. "total mass of the entire vehicle at the moment of ignition of each stage," is stated under vehicle. So its should be clear.... maybe, in the example AtlasV-532 file put something like this: "massTotal", 334872, //the massTotal is common booster core + engine+ centaur upper stage.. that would help people like me a lot EDIT: For my AtlasV-532 with a 5t payload, i get a massTotal of 343899kg without clamps, launch tower, srb's. Its ~10t difference to your number. EDIT2: Forget Edit, the RSB craft files have liquid fuel and oxidizer plus lqdoxygen and kerosene in the tanks, somehow RO doesnt get rid of that. Without the unnecessary fuel load and payload i have the same Totalmass. One question remains: why does PEGAS stage my payload (its the last stage), in the mission.ks there is my payload weight listet and in the sequence list is no additional command, there are only the standard commands of the example AtlasV-532.ks file. The more launches i made, with different launchers, the happier i get. Man, nice program. WOW!!! -

JohnMcLane replied to Reddy's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Nice mod you developed! I just tried to get behind the numbers of your "tutorial"-vehicle, the AtlasV-532. AtlasV-532.ks: GLOBAL vehicle IS LIST( LEXICON( // This is a sustainer-type stage. It ignites on the pad, but UPFG takes control over it mid-flight. // Therefore, no ignition or separation happens, and the actual mass of the stage at activation is // inferred automatically. "name", "Common Core Booster", "massTotal", 334872, "massFuel", 207720+76367, My version of the RSB AtlasV-532 common core booster has a wet mass of 299200 kg, what do i have to add to get to 334872? The rest of the numbers are clear. Thanks -

[1.12.x] Filter Extensions, no Localization for now
JohnMcLane replied to linuxgurugamer's topic in KSP1 Mod Development
Note that in the new beta will be a lot of changes and some of the stuff i copied isnt gonna work! I copied that from the old threat, from Targa who postet this on page 22: Found this helpful to create your own filter extensions categories. TAC Life Support cfgs This is what I did to create a new VAB/SPH Filter by Function category named "Life Support", place all the TAC-LS parts in it, and remove the TAC-LS parts from the Utility category. You're free to mess around with your own config files if you want something different from Filter Extensions. Step 1: Download and install Filter Extensions mod. This should give you 2 folders. One named 000_FilterExtensions and another one named 000_FilterExtensions Configs. Step 2: In the 000_FilterExtensions Configs folder, delete the subfolder named StockRework. Step 3. In the 000_FilterExtensions Configs folder, open the file named FilterByFunction.cfg with Notepad or similar text editor. Add another line reading: list = 8,Life Support. It should look like the code below: FilterByFunction.cfg - adds a new category named "Life Support" Step 4: In the 000_FilterExtensions Configs folder, open the file named SubCategories_Stock.cfg. Scroll down until you find the line "name = Utility". In this section add a check for Life Support and TACLS title. The code of that part should look like this: Subcategories_Stock.cfg - Removes TAC-LS parts from the Utility category Step 5: In the 000_FilterExtensions Configs folder, create a new text document named Subcategories_LifeSupport.cfg, paste the following code into it and save: Subcategories_LifeSupport.cfg - Adds all TAC-LS parts to the new Life Support filter by function category Enjoy a spam-free Utility tab in the VAB/SPH! Universal Storage parts for life support can also be added to these filters. If you wish to move them to the Life Support tab and remove them from the Utility tab, change the following two files that you've already edited to this: Subcategories_LifeSupport.cfg -
[1.2.x/1.3] MemGraph 1.1.0.3 - with Stutter Reduction
JohnMcLane replied to Padishar's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Great mod! Wanted to give some feedback: On my "till August"-System with 8gb ram and i5-3570k with heavy 1.2.2 Realism Overhaul install, 50 mods and padheap 1gb, i got from: - Early Game (<50hours): Inflight from 25 sec intervall to 30-35 sec intervall - mid game (>50hours): inflight from 15-18 sec intervall to 20-25 sec intervall In september i got a new System: 16gb ram and ryzen 5 1600, again with heavy 1.3.0 Realism Overhaul install, 50 mods and padheap 4gb, i got from: - Early Game (<50hours): Inflight from 35 sec intervall to 90-120 sec intervall If i use the mod+end method 2 or 3 times the results get to the 90-120 intervalls, thats sooooo nice. Wierdly in the SPH the intervalls go down to like 10sec and vary from 5sec to 30 sec.... Without this mod, KSP wouldnt be playable with mods for me! -

kopernicus [1.6.0] Extrasolar v1.8.0 [12/21/18]
JohnMcLane replied to Andi K.'s topic in KSP1 Mod Releases

kopernicus [1.6.0] Extrasolar v1.8.0 [12/21/18]
JohnMcLane replied to Andi K.'s topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Does this work with RSS? RSS Extrasolar is RSS Constellations, right? I try to find a Planet Pack that works in 1.3. with RSS as a primary system (in Galactic neighborhood RSS is a secondary System too). -
as long it is working, no reason to worry
-
But you have another .dll in your Plugins folder?!
-
Its should be in the RSS -> Plugins folder. Its the Plugin for the mod to work
