I think it's about that time.

Hi all, sorry I haven't been around. Was planning my honeymoon, then going on my honeymoon, and now I'm trying to re-establish which way is up now that I'm home from my honeymoon. We had a good time though...
Few more under the spoiler:
Also got some awesome historic space swag like a Titan 34D program coffee mug and a bunch of other things I have sorted through and taken pictures of yet.
Now, to find time and motivation to start on my 2025 plans... Some BDB content, some for another project.
CONGRATIONS!!!!!!
My hiatus is (probably) over, time to get back to hustling. First order of business is doing This.
BEHOLD, THE SANDBAR.
A skylabish monstrosity.
And after a fair bit of physics wrangling, a few launches and a few days of building, its self construction begins. The station of the future, one that builds ITSELF (with the assistance of a crew of three horribly overworked engineers).
Featuring its first module, the very first in the long long radio telescope/relay system. For scanning the nearby star Cercani for any signs of life and for communicating with probes I MOST DEFINITELY did NOT overestimate the communications power on.
Now featuring Gyazo links that won't 404 within the week.

Not really, it's based on this concept:
Yup, knew it. The extra long SIV-B was the giveaway. Don't know if I've seen anyone use the F1 vacuum yet. Looks great by the way.

Saturn V (w/o J-2) - 1967
Ohhh yes. I KNOW what's in that interstage. First time I've seen anyone here actually use that variant.

You might just need to update, there was a short period where the majority of the thrust from the inline variant was coming from one of the verniers instead of the main bell. You probably downloaded dev between the 13th and 15th of July?
Yup, think I did. I'll update.
-
Getting a strange bug. The verniers on the Pele SRB are INCREDIBLY over tuned. They also don't vector correctly and send the rocket careening.

Longstanding bug fixed, the SLA panels actually shield the contents:
Also a new closed wide variant:
Also updated the textures for less dds artifacts (no pink/green tinge), and they now have new normals so there's no more weird lighting at the part seams.
Oh thank you, I've been wanting a capped variant of that fairing forever

The OV-1 partset is gonna be KILLER for making some great space torpedoes and the like.

I like the kick stage

I can’t reproduce this still. Does it happen with freshly built craft, as opposed to loading a saved craft? And how did you install your other mods? If you don’t use CKAN I might recommend clean reinstalls (delete old versions) of: system heat, at utils/configurable containers/throttle controlled avionics. Maybe even try without TCA and CC installed just to check.
If none of that helps, and it does happen with freshly made craft, a copy of your modulemanager.configcache from your main gamedata folder could be helpful too
Okay weird, deleted and reinstalled system heat, and now it works fine. Thanks for the help!

Alright I'm on the beta, having some issues with the Prometheus/Titan radial decoupler now. Right clicking on it causes the menu to pop up all bugged, and then completely prevent right clicking on any part till I close and re open the VAB.
Here's the KSP log. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/992jw84cwqr2g6jblsn8l/KSP.log?rlkey=7movmv13yk2cnap8dpjr462ub&st=gr5zfj5r&dl=0 -

Starting on the OV1s
OV1-1
OV1-10
Not sure if I'll do any more. Perhaps 17,18 or 19 sometime. But will do the pods next. Side mount Atlas Retained Structure, the nose mounted "dual ARS" and the regular fairing that can carry two or three.
Wow, I am surprised I've NEVER seen these satellites till now. They look like toys instead of real spacecraft. The models are looking great so far.

Any Chance you still have these images and can upload them to something more permanent? I just came looking for your Nuke Shuttle pictures and the links are all dead
Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine here's an imgur album link. I should stop being lazy and start using image hosting so my stuff doesn't have an expiration date.

I have decided to take the Next Logical Step in rocket technology, my own Wonderful rendition of a """space shuttle"""
Forgoing such fanciful ideas like "Reusable rockets" and "technological advancement" and instead going with what definitely works and is assuredly cheaper. Mass producing the same engine and just changing it a bit.
4 sea level J-2's for the first stage, second stage powered by one sea level J-2. Heavily inspired by the NLS and crafted with love to be the catalyst for endless armchair arguments over its practicality in this fake worlds inevitable internet.

Set up the antenna booms wrong but oh well.

Well, Radial Docking Port Adapter. You'll need to put Apollo ports on it. It also comes in different sizes.
OH I forgot about this part. Wish it was a docking piece itself instead of being a row of parts nodes. Though it's probably supposed to go with the flat construction ports that also got added, the small ones.
-
Wait is there a radial construction port?

Ill admit my mistake, you caught me out. Nuclear Shuttle was not even on my mind. (isn't it too short tho!?) Good show And good luck with your Martian landing (assuming you are headded to Duna)
oh yeah it is but full length would be overkill for the stock system.

Oh dear... hope that's stable when it flies.
Oh it's stable
Oh yeah baby it's time.
40% of the time spent making the lander, 40% spent making it a BIT more stable, 19% making it STOP exploding on launch and 1% spent making the rest of it.
Sadly I had to sacrifice 3/4 of the surface sampling probes due to part count but I DID IT, It's GONNA work. -

Given the 396" section is upside down, is this a Saturn II lab?
Also what engines did you use for your Clusters!? All E-1s I hope! (or better!)@harveylates There is a lot of picture noise to make it "Authentic" but that looks like the Pegasus/S-V Boilerplate you were asking about yesterday.
NOPE, 24 H-1's, NO upgrades. Having all your engines lighting be a total crapshoot keeps things interesting.

The RD180 derived 2.5m mount is up on github now. Available in 1x, 2x and 4x flavours. And each is available with and without the Atlas V lox pipe connection.
Had a thought, what about an engine mount like this but for the Atlas III variant of the RD-180? Cool hollow mount like this that lets us connect stuff to the fuel line cleanly.

ALWAYS love seeing more generic and ahistorical parts like this. Love me some funky kitbashing.

Getting some weird physics issues with the lono wheels. I'm getting this error in the logs [LOG 19:19:27.335] Part bluedog.LRV.Wheel exited collision with Duna Xp231330112, but it wasn't in collision count list!
And then the wheels brick themselves and only work on reload
