Amazing! Was it pretty straightforward to get up in RSS? Asking for a friend. (I'm the friend)
I am in KSRSS, pretty jank setup but it looks great. I assume RSS might be harder

I've been waiting for someone to write a alternate history about Skylab that did justice to that station. Thank you so much and keep it up!
Thank you, I have much more in mind stay tuned!

Skylab 10 | SLM-9 | TRS-3 | STS-12| - December 17 - 24, 1983
Ending the year with the start of Reuse Phase 3 and the anticipated higher flight rate of 1984 and beyond has many excited about the future of Skylab and the STS program. Today, STS-12 will conduct ATM solar inspections, an EVA to retract the two forward ATM (Apollo Telescope Mount) solar panels which allows clearance for PM deployment on Skylab 11 which is scheduled for launch in February 1984, TRS-3 stow for docking with PM, and system checkouts for future kit installations.
Crew:
Commander: Robert Crippen
Pilot: Francis R. Scobee
Mission specialist 1:Terry Hard
Mission Specialist 2: Richard Mullane
Payload Specialist 1: George Nelson
Orbiter:
OV-102 | Columbia
Launch Pad:

I was wondering if you could make this with BDB! How much delta V does it have? I'm tempted to convert this into a chonky smallsat launcher.
You could put Minuteman 3 on it...

Skylab 9 | SLM-8 | STS-9 | Spacelab-1 - August 23 - 31, 1983
Crew:
Commander: John Young
Pilot: Robert Gibson
Mission Specialist 1 Robert L. Stewart
Mission Specialist 2: Owen Garriott
Payload Specialist 1: Ulf Merbold
Payload Specialist 2: Bryon K. Lichtenberg
Orbiter:
OV-102 | Columbia
Launch pad:
LC-39A
Columbia is set to start her first normal scheduled stay at Skylab and the final mission of Skylab Reuse Phase 2 with Phase 3 beginning in 1984. During this historical mission, the Columbia crew will carry out Spacelab experiments, three EVAs if possible, ATM solar inspection for the upcoming crew of Skylab 10, and evaluate compatibility with Skylab for the future module planned in Phase 3. Additionally, this will also be the first flight of an ESA astronaut and the reusable laboratory Spacelab which will mark a significant boost in the European space sector. Sadly, this will be John Young's final spaceflight, a true legendary pioneer in our space program.

this was supposed to be posted days ago just thought it was quite boring and put it off for a bit, but I am fine with it now and I hope you guys like it! -

Do you have a roadmap for the other features planned? I would love to see HTV-X and other derivatives in flight

HTV-R (HTV-Return) and a few other things for HTV are currently in development. Also I have plans for HTV-X.

Skylab 8 | SLM-7 | STS-6 - June 7 - 12, 1982
Back To Back
Crew
Commander: Paul J. Weitz
Pilot: Rober F. Overmyer
Mission Specialist 1: Joseph P. Allen
Mission Specialist 2: Norman Thagard
Orbiter:
OV-099 | Challenger
Today, Challenger the sister Orbiter to Columbia is ready for her maiden flight and a back to back Skylab mission, a first since the Apollo days. STS-6 will consist of two main goals with one to deploy TDRS-1 (Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System) which will provide future constant communications with Skylab to NASA compared to the current short communication system that depends on the location of the Orbiter. The second goal will be to deploy SPPT (Solar Panel Prototype) which is a solar panel testbed for the future Power Module built by Lockheed which is nearing completion with launch slated for 1984. Even with the modifications done on Challenger there have been talks stirring up about the possibility to stop painting the External Tank to help with weight reduction after STS-6.

Was this series inspired by this at all or do they just share the same name?
Happens to have the same name, this alt history had a different name before and zero inspiration from David

I think the latest KSRSS Reborn (as of https://gitlab.com/ksrss/KSRSS/-/commit/79108ac108493ba1834209c3314065f35b6fa686) on Sep 5th 2022, changed the name of "Earth" to "Kerbin" so Parallax would work. However this breaks this mod if you've downloaded KSRSS Reborn from gitlab since then and are only using V1.0 of this mod from the releases on GitHub.
I believe using the master branch direct will fix it.
- If you only see the map, with the KSC on, but no other KK statics, as @Fabled_Mikehas mentioned then you'll likely have this problem.
- Check the file GameData/KSRSS/Configs/03_Earth/03_Earth.cfg - if it says "Body { name = Kerbin" near the top, then you'll need the master branch of this mod.
V1.0 is for older KSRSS which is why it isn't supported. the master branch is for KSRSS Reborn
-
No this thread isn't dead
just planning out a lot of things for later down the line, will try and get some posts up

Yeah, the only version is for 1.0 ksrss
No.
The master branch is for Reborn (GitLab) and the release version is for older KSRSS. -

Is there plans for revamped reDirect parts (STS, Jupiter, etc.) to be added, or will SLS and the surrounding concepts be the current scope of this mod?
Another mod called ORANGES is working on that.

I saw a comment by @CobaltWolf a while ago (5-10 pages back, maybe more?) saying he added color variants for the handles on the Apollo CSM decoupler and service module. It would be cool if that color switch also applied to the docking port please
visual aid included
edit, black bar version maybe as well? just a suggestion
This is the best post i have ever seen here

The SRB hole is too small so you have to move the pad way too far down which makes the Orbiter too high for the Tail Service Mounts to reach it
