I would definitely object to making them even, since that doesn't reflect RL values at all. For MKS it makes sense, since that system uses "Supplies". It also makes sense for Snacks. But if using TAC-LS it's completely inaccurate since as @linuxgurugamerpointed out they all have different densities. The point to US2 wedges is that they have consistent volumes. I can't remember the in-game volume of a wedge, but just looking at RL values for Food, Oxygen, and Water with 1m3 as an example - 1m3 of food is 190 days for 1 human. 1m3 of water is 400 days, and and 1m3 of compressed Oxygen is 247.5 days. (source and source)
That is fine. I never suggested anyone use it, was never intending to share it anyway, and only did cause linuxgurugamer was asking for more input and figured I would throw it out there if it was wanted.

@SandriellI've been reviewing this, I see that you've changed the amounts by (in some cases) a lot. Can you explain the reasoning behind those changes? Did you do calculations to figure out the correct amount, or are they just changes to suit your playing style?
The only amounts I changed by a lot were for life support. I just wanted to even things out really and did calculations based on consumption/generation numbers from TAC Life support
For example with default configs the wedges all provided different amounts of resources. For example, per kerbal, the water wedge would give 1 year 73 days, the oxygen wedge would give 361 days and the food wedge gave 331 days.
With the changes, they are all even, meaning all the life support wedges give you the same 303 days of life support, per kerbal, per wedge size. The waste wedges double those numbers, per size. Just made things simpler.
For mass changes I shot for a middle ground, lowering some masses and raising others, with a goal of making the wedges generally all in multiples of 25kg.
All the changes could probably use some more tweaking, but it was all "good enough" for me for my personal use.

Hi, I downloaded this mod a couple weeks ago and I love it, but I'm playing career mode and when I try to transmit processed science from the Fate deep space lab, it uploads and everything but doesn't give me the actual science. It shows the progress percentage and gives me a message when it's done but not the message telling me it's added the science. I have two of the stock processing labs on the same station and those work fine, so I've ruled out the issue being the antenna and/or connection.
Apologies if this is an issue that has already been noted and solved.
Thanks
Are you using TAC Life Support as well? If so, I believe this is related to the NRE spam and I posted a patch that fixes this issue.

A tankMass of 0 is allowed?
And I suggest a different boiloff config for LqdMethane compared to LqdHydrogen, there are configs circulating with proper values.
tankmass is simply added mass from fuel, since the tank already has some mass by default no added mass is needed for the first size. The default configs also have 0 added mass for the first size.
And you are right, methane should be:
QuoteBoiloffRate = 0.005
CoolingCost = 0.045 -

I'd like to see them. One of the issues I saw was incorrect attach nodes, I've adjusted them and will be looking for feedback on how it works, seeing your changes will be helpful as well

@linuxgurugamer I have some other personal changes that I made to the mod that include rebalancing the various wedge's weights to make it easier to install them without creating massive amounts of torque. I also did some rebalancing on the TAC life support resource amounts that I felt made things a lot easier to calculate and understand the length of time they will last as well as all wedges providing the same length of life support.
I didn't share them because I wasn't sure if it was appropriate to share such big changes. However, if desired I can share them and you can decide what to do with it.

Not sure if it is just me but I seem to be unable to download the latest version of Tweakscale- Version 2.4.6.6. I have tried CKAN, Spacedock and Github and all the downloads seem to actually be 2.4.6.5
I noticed this because I am having the localization issue in game. So checking the downloads and in game and everything is saying 2.4.6.5

Known issue with Parallax. Only fix right now is to disable the city lights. You can do this by deleting the CityLights.cfg file (or alternatively change the file extension to something like ".off").
Can find the file in "GameData\AstronomersVisualPack\AVP_Configs\Stock"

Known issue with Kopernicus, and a fix is actively being worked on right now. The latest version, 68, is supposed to fix the issue.

Sorry about that!
I thought that renaming the liquid nitrogen could open an issue with other mods and I wanted to have a unique resource that could be a multipurpose propellant.
Sure, that's fine. Just bad etiquette to delete issues and such on Github versus closing them, since I had no way of knowing that.

Here is a super-simple patch to remove the converters that will "fix" the part until it can be diagnosed what about the converters is conflicting with the part.
@PART[sspx-science-1875-1,sspx-lab-375-1,sspx-lab-5-1]:FINAL { !MODULE[TacGenericConverter],* {} }This removes the 3 life-support recyclers on those parts. Not critical in my opinion, and so still very playable without them for now.

Wouldn't putting the patch in a user folder (e.g. zz_my_mods) unrelated to either mod be more resilient since installing or updating that particular mod could wipe out the patch file inadvertently?
Yep, technically you could put it anywhere in the GameData folder and it would work fine. Updating either manually or through CKAN should be safe though, as neither method would overwrite any user created files- as long as you are not deleting the mod folder before updating.

For anyone using Nertea's Cryo Tanks/Cryo Engines mods- here is a patch that will add Liquid Hydrogen and Liquid Methane to the Fuel Tank wedge, as well as adding a Liquid Fuel only option.

Is it possible to have the PAW groups expanded by default? Particularly the stock ones? Its kind of of annoying and tedious having to expand them all the time while building a craft.

The illectroemergency.cfg patch is modifying any engines with an existing resource by turning it into electric charge- this completely breaks SRBs in particular. This is due to editing a resource instead of adding a new one. Removing the @ symbols from everything except the first line fixes it.
@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[ModuleEngines]] { RESOURCE { name = ElectricCharge amount = 2.5 maxAmount = 2.5 } }I saw you already caught the missing bracket.

I'm on KSP 1.7.3 with SR 1.9.1.3 and RecoveryController 0.0.3.8 and I have a couple of questions.
1: I don't know if this is actually a feature that Stage Recovery is supposed to have or if I'm remembering wrong. I thought that in the past I had been able to drop an upper stage or payload from orbit back onto a suborbital trajectory and have the mod recover it for me while I do other things (assuming it met the parachute, heat shield, and/or propulsive landing criteria of course), but recent attempts haven't even resulted in a "stage destroyed" message, as if the mod just isn't handling the event. It works fine for stages jettisoned as I launch a new vehicle, but it seems like once something has achieved orbit it stops paying attention (or at least doesn't generate the expected messages).
2: It was also tricky to figure out just how many parachute modules I needed to attach via docking ports to successfully bring down an older "space bus" craft for recovery (which was replaced by a larger model with better crew capacity and more delta-V). When attaching the parachute-laden probes to the old design in the editor, SR treated each of them as separate stages (even though no staging was enabled on the docking ports), and stubbornly kept telling me that the main craft was 0% recoverable. I had to replace the docking ports with structural connections and/or move the parachutes onto the main craft in order to figure out how many were actually needed.
At first I thought that the parachutes all being on these docked probes might be responsible for SR not recovering the craft after I dropped it out of orbit, but then I realized that it still should have generated a "stage destroyed" message if that was the case, so it's probably just a separate usability issue. It's easy to find out if something like a docked escape pod ("MOOSE" etc) has enough parachutes to land safely by simply detaching it from everything else, after all, and I just keep coming back to that after trying to think up any use case that would require the current treatment of docking ports. I understand that it might not be easy to do anything about, but it would be a "very nice to have" feature/tweak/whatever if there was a way to make it treat unstaged docking ports in the editor as being one stage instead of separate stages and base its diagnostic report on the combined unit.
Thanks for keeping this mod going, and all the others you maintain -- I use quite a few of them!
What mode are you playing in? In my experience at least, the mod only works in Career Mode.

Afraid I can't answer that, but there is definitely some kind of conflict between SSPXr science labs and TAC that doesn't exist between the stock science lab, or labs added by other mods.
