    Once she's ready to take wing...

    ...gently into that good night we shall not go. (This whole poem has probably been way overused since the film came out...)

    It actually has a fourth module docked now, meaning the ring is one third complete. I reckon another day or two and Stargazer will be ready to go :)

    Getting the final docking port to attach is the trick... Mine was skewed just slightly somewhere near the beginning, so by the time I had closed the loop, the last two ports were out by roughly the docking port's radius, and, well.... I used KAS winches to pull it into alignment, and to hold it together once engines were lit, but it didn't go so well at that point, physics said no.

    Interstellar/ Nearfuture crossover bug.

    in KSP1 Mods Discussions

    Posted

    I have been working on importing a selection of meshes from the Interstellar mod into the Nearfuture mod, for use as alternate models of the nuclear reactors.

    I achieved this by copying the data from the Nearfuture reactors' .cfg over the .cfg for the Interstellar Antimatter reactor.

    Unfortunately, when launching a rocket, anything attached to the nodes on the reactor part disconnect and fall through the rest of the rocket assembly, leaving the rocket unflyable.

    I have pored over the .cfg and cannot find why this is happening. Is anyone out there able to help?

    Yeah, I've got that. I am using FPSlacker's .cfgs for the stock engines, I am just trying to get this set to have the same effect with atmosphere so all the parts "gel" together aesthetically. I like the new MP effects that you've created, so I'm trying to make that the particle entity that expands.

    I've been trying to write a .cfg to apply the expansion effects to the Cutter. Inspired by the guys making the B9 pack. Unfortunately I just can't get it to work. I can't seem to make hotrockets excerpt out an existing Module{EFFECTS, and insert a modified version with expansion values.
