    Download the .ckan, and make sure you know where it is. Then click on file at the top right corner of the CKAN window, and find “install from .ckan”, click on it, and find and open the .ckan

    Ok awesome! Did you remove BD and add the Dev version?

    also is it easy to add more mods? Noticed we didn’t have airplane plus, also hanger extender might be useful for large craft

    With most mods, we could do that, but some of them probably have sharing in that format banned. Just download the latest version. 

    I need to remove BDA from the .ckan so we can use the dev version. Sorry! 

    So I’ve just watched a load of tutorials and downloaded CKAN to my KSP 1.3.0.1804 is this correct? What is my next step

    I can’t get any of this stuff to download

    I could download the individual mods, but I’m concerned that may not work if they are different versions to what you have

    So I can’t find Enterprise, KWS, or mouse aim flight on CKAN, so we have to install those separately. I’m uploading the .ckan file to google drive now, to install you go to file->install from .ckan, and it should do the rest itself.

    edit: found download links for KWS and mouse aim flight, but I’m not sure what mod Enterprise is. I can only find Star Trek mods.

    I obviously have no idea, but can’t you just save the whole KSP with mods to the google drive or something?

    Just a thought. I like the idea of recording and maybe uploading videos to YouTube so we can all keep track of each other’s movements. But I think we should be allowed to keep maybe 1 movement per turn secret, as in we don’t have to show it. For example moving an aircraft carrier to just off an enemy coastline

    Thanks! Really appreciate you doing that for people like me who belong outside in the wilderness, not on computers! Haaa

    Building a plane for use with FAR is a whole other can of worms when comparing to stock aerodynamics

    Your best bet to learn about how to design for FAR would be to look at the official FAR craft repository .... 

    And I also suggest to pay attention to those who have been around the forums for awhile as you are likely to get better information on craft design for BDAc and FAR from those who have been doing FAR fighter challenges over the past few years .... There are some here who think they know but when their craft is put to the test it gets destroyed or the AI Pilot wont fly it properly

    Main thing to keep in mind is CoL goes behind CoM ... Col above your CoM or below it will cause issues along with if your CoT is not lined up to pass through the aproximate center of your CoM

     

    Thanks! Will try looking into that stuff! Just had difficulty transitioning from what I’m so used to. Also I love to make realistic looking planes so some of the ones that used to fly on stock don’t with FAR

    I think I know what I’m doing. I also know someone who can help if I can’t figure it out. I’ll start when I can and once we settle on a version. 

    Definitely 1.3

    It’s a file that tells CKAN what the modset is so it can download it. 

    For the gamedata, I think some mod liscenses don’t allow redistribution, so we should check that first. Otherwise that might be a better plan than CKAN

    Honestly if you could sort out the mods and send it out to us some how is really appreciate it. It really sounds like you know what you are doing haaaa

    I'd suggest to stick with KSP 1.3.

    1.3.1 has a critical bug with landing legs making vessel jump when loaded 

    Ok that’s fine by me. What do we need to do now?

    Mouse aim flight and KerbinSide?

    I’ll add mouse aim flight. Was thinking instead of Kerbin side we should use Kerbal Konstructs and build our own bases

    I created the folder

    Awesome! Thanks! I will see if I can get started tonight. I’ll download the latest version of KSP and see if I can get the mods set up and then upload it I guess. 

    then we can all start getting used to the mods while we finalise rules and players and maybe background stories. I am of course Sir Nigel Humphrey Britwistle, chief flight sergeant and commanding officer for the Royal Airforce of His Majety king Jebediah of the the United Kerbal Kingdom

    Where'd you get that? you a dev? Or am I blind and do not see the download?

    EDIT: It seems like we all had colors. Imma start staking my claim: the coast of the arctic closest to the Europe like landmass above the KSC continent... to symbolize the giant squid's habitat and my cold and merciless swarm tactics.  I'll highlight it in MSPaint next weekend, busy week.

    Sounds good to me

    i guess I’m gonna have to put it all together. I will do my best but I don’t get a lot of time and I’m not very good with this stuff.

    also how do we plan to share it?

    Hi guys, 

    Just to let you I'm following this thread. 

    Given that is a BDA challenge I might be helpful. 

    I will post a list with my recommended mods to enjoy a full war experience :)

    Good to hear it! 

    Im gonna get on with doing a mod list now with all the popular ones on this thread. Then we discuss how many of them we want.

    I haven’t got the chance to play a lot but I’ve experienced with FAR and I’m struggling to make realistic looking effective planes. Every plane I make struggles with turning no matter what I do so I feel like dogfights would be a bit rubbish. If it’s my fault and anyone has any advice I’d love to hear it. If not and that’s just the realism of it maybe we don’t use it. Let me know!
