    I'm not sure where to post this issue but I figured I'd start here. I seem to have an issue with my atmo engines overheating. My craft is using Squads Sabre and a modded SCRAM jet with both over heating at Mach 3+.

    To fix the issue I've used radiators, heat exchanges and Pre-coolers with no change real change in how fast the engines overheat. The SCRAM jet doesn't even get turned on till Mach 4 and when it does they instantly overheat.

    I've used this setup before on previous versions of KSP with no real problems (assuming I use the Pre-coolers), so i'm kind of stumped on what to do.

    So I've found the issue and I don't pretend to understand the code, but the way it seems to go is in ModuleSabreHeating.cs is there are calculations related to precoolers vs intakes but because the precoolers have intakes included the "cooling" was only being applied to this intake and no others.

    This made the intake I put in front of the precooler heat the engines. Remove all intakes (except the ones inbuilt into the precoolers, which can't be removed) and problem solved, no more overheating engines.

    There are some suspicious errors in the log file which seem related.

    I can't load the craft since I'm missing a lot of mods.  So, two suggestions:

    First, make a new sandbox save, put only this craft file in and see if you can load it there.

    Second, zip up your entire GameData directory and get me  a link (dropbox is faster).

    Finally, I noticed that you are playing on 1.3.0, is there any reason you didn't upgrade to 1.3.1?

    I tried a new save in KSP 1.3.0 and had the same issue, I then updated my game to 1.3.1 (not quite sure why it wasn't already) and it has fixed the problem.

    Thank you, Linuxgurugamer :)

    I'm trying to use the Ship Save Splicer to give me a copy of my station into the VAB to plan upgrades. Problem is when I save a copy and then convert to a craft file, upon oping the VAB load a save, the list is empty as in no ships. If I remove the craft file SSS created all my ships are back on the list.

    I'm using KSP version 1.3.0 and I've tried SSS version 1.2.0 and 1.3.1 with the same result.

    Here is the download for the one I made, it uses existing code in interstellar for a part like this and appears to work fine, I have seen some reports that it can cause some wonky thermal performance however I have not been able to determine if those problems are confined to issues with the thermal helper in the VAB or if there are additional problems after launch, in order to properly configure your radiators I would suggest putting them on before any thermal adapters with a little extra just in case and then adding any needed thermal adapters, the .rar just needs to be unpacked into "Kerbal Space Program\GameData\WarpPlugin\Parts\Utility" and the part description includes all further info.

    https://www.dropbox.com/s/mpwq84f3p593mwo/ThermalAdapter.rar?dl=0

    I've just tested your parts and when I try to feed two engines from the one reactor one gets power the other does not, not sure if this is intended or not.

    Karbonite/Real Fuels Integration Configs [1/18/15]

    in KSP1 Mod Releases

    Posted · Edited by 7rex

    I just tried the new configs and there doesn't seem to be Kerosene listed on the fuel choices. Stock Fuels like LFO are listed multiple times and the LOX conversion now works but yes no Kero.

    EDIT:

    I think I see the issue, the Kero conversions are done by a part named @PART[KA_Converter_250_01O], which doesn't exist in the "Karbonite_New_Converters.cfg" file.

    EDIT2:

    I added the "KA_Converter_250_01O" to the new converters file and I can now make RP-1 :)

    [1.1.x] Space Shuttle Engines (2016-07-03)

    I'm trying to use this mod with Real fuels and I've noticed that only half of the Linear aerospike engine works.

    When i set the fuel type to Kerosene and Liquid Oxygen and launch only half the engine is firing, the other half is listed as Oxidiser deprived.

    If I add liquid fuel and oxidiser to the tanks I can get both sides of the engine working.

    Has anyone encountered this or has a work around?
