This is awesome. ... game changing even. Just a small request. Could you possibly call it something different than E.V.E.... "Awesome Atmospheres" something... anything. KSP already had an Eve before E.V.E., and now there is E.V.E. (overhaul)... not everyone is a google search ninja, and this is too awesome to be so hard to find. Party on. *edit* Hey guys, I thought I'd write a few more lines here. I do realise that rbray89 made the original E.V.E. Thanks rbray89 ! ... and thinking about it I can understand what a monumental task it would be to change the name of a mod already in progress. That said, I hang out on twitch a lot and get to talking to people about new mods. It can get confusing especially to newbies.

Hello! I'm trying to get the new MissionTimer parameter to work... Is there any examples of people using it yet? here's what I have so far: // Requires Contract Configurator. Fourm link http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/101604 // Adds a Contract to recover a prebuilt SSTO spaceplane from Asclepius. // CONTRACT_TYPE { name = KesslerRun title = The Kessler Run description = Can your baby do the Kessler run in under 12 mins? synopsis = We want you to Fly the Kessler Run completedMessage = You could probably outrun a bulk cruiser in that. // Agent (agency).

Note that an // altitude of 0.0 means "on the ground". If not specified, uses a // A random value between 0.0 and the atmosphere ceiling (which is zero // if there's no atmosphere). altitude = 100 // The coordinates. latitude = -18.7265875306472 longitude = -53.9731235534922 } WAYPOINT { name = NKessler targetBody = Asclepius icon = balloon altitude = 100 // The coordinates. latitude = -3.75831542364648 longitude = -79.153185595674 } } PARAMETER { name = KessTimer type = MissionTimer startCriteria = PARAMETER_COMPLETION startParameter = Kessler1strt endCriteria = PARAMETER_COMPLETION endParameter = Kessler1end } // PARAMETER { name = Kessler1strt type = VisitWaypoint // Distance tolerance to be considered at the waypoint. // // Type: double // Required: No (defaulted) // Default: 500.0 (if on the surface). // / 5.0 (if not on the surface). // distance = 500.0 // Whether the waypoint should get automatically hidden after completing // the contract objective. hideOnCompletion = true // Text to use for the parameter // // Type: string // Required: No (defaulted) // Default: Location: <waypoint> // title = Kessler Run Start } // PARAMETER { name = Kessler1end type = VisitWaypoint distance = 700.0 hideOnCompletion = false title = Kessler Run Finish } REQUIREMENT { name = OrbitAsc type = Orbit // Target body, defaulted from the contract if not supplied. // // Type: CelestialBody // Required: No (defaulted) // targetBody = Asclepius } } My plan is to have a contract to get to point A, start the timer, get to point B, and end the mission. Eventually I want to add persistant data storage so that a "fastest time" gets recorded. (and ultimately spawn in an "easter egg" vessel if the contract is completed in X amount of time. Any help is apprecieated I usually just keep trying 1000000 times until I get it to work, but I thought it might help to ask around

Update 7-22-15 Changes Updated to latest Kopernicus version. Added terrain scatter Now includes support for Contract Configurator Adds "easter egg contract" Direct D/L (download link in OP updated)

I'm no pro by any means but I'll take a look at it, and make a contribution if I can... A Galaxy Addon is super overwhelming to me. My old computer is lucky to do 1 planet system at a time [uh-sklee-pee-uh s]

Awesome pics. Don't forget to give the moon a try! Thanks for sharing! If you can get the cloud layers working I'd strongly consider adding them in. Awesome! Thanks! Is there a list of used planet ID (flightGlobalsIndex) numbers compiled anywhere? Something like that would be cool to add to your site to help future planet modders avoid compatibility issues. I used 38, and 39.

Can I bother one of you super-awesome mods to move my thread [WIP] SSTO playground - Ascelpius - A Kopernicus planet from Add-on Development to Add-on Releases? And maybe change the title to "Asclepius - A Kopernicus planet - SSTO playground" Thanks!

Update 7-13-2015 Changes: -Added clouds! *optional*, REQUIRES E.V.E Planet is now complete! Enjoy! (updated D/L link in OP)

Update 7-11-2015 Changes: Visual atmospheric improvements. (D/L link in OP) Does anyone know if you can add a color gradient to the atmosphere as seen from the ground so that the sky changes color at sunrise/sunset?

I also noticed that there is no isHomeWorld = false line in Tyrok's cfg, I dunno if that has anything to do with it. Thanks for telling me about the Kopernicus update, I just updated everything.

I think I might be able to help with the "crashing through the terrain" problem on Tyrok.

I tried to test it out, but when I try to add your planet there is just empty space after you load your game.. no buildings, no KSC, no Kerbin, just the Sun and the 2 kerbin moons floating around in space?

Thanks daniel- I've tried using kopernicus to export a more detailed colormap, but I just end up with the oceans? I might also consider making the scaled-space transition happen further out? The sun flare is stock. Update 7-8-2015 Changes: -Small terrain changes. -Added 2 new biomes to Asclepius. -Added all new custom biomes for Kruel. -Added even MORE custom science. (D/L link in OP)

I just checked out the link to your mod in your thread. Sorry I was confused about what you were asking. I think the easiest way to go about determining what resources should be in the atmo is to take Kerbin and Duna, and just split the difference. Feel free to get creative though Thanks for including my planet in your mod.

It has a thin oxygen containing atmosphere.

Like some kind of fancy scientific reason that it is the way it is? I'll make it up now: Sulphur hexaflouride produced from deep tectonic activity seeps up, and gathers in the canyons, creating enough of a blanket to trap oxygen emanating from an unknown source on the planets surface.

Sweet! That would be super-awesome Astrofox! I'll add them if you can get them to work. I can't run EVE in any decent settings on this computer so I can't be of much help I'm afraid.

Woohoo! Asclepius doesn't have to be lonely anymore. Enjoy! (download link in OP updated) I'm planning on calling this little project done, and releasing this soon... Unless anyone wants to help add E.V.E. clouds to Asclepius... All other suggestions and advice will be taken into consideration in the meantime. Thanks for checking out my planet!

Awesome pics Hades! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! I added a few of them to the Album in the OP Thanks again! TGWALUN- Thanks, And.. uhh yea, sorry again about adding confusion to your thread Other News I think the planet is pretty much complete, I was thinking that it needs a small moon... So, I'm giving that a shot.

Thanks Astrofox! Pics Albumized! Update Science definitions added Revised atmosphere appearance Darkened terrain

Asclepius v5.0 A new Kopernicus planet (and moon) for KSP! Video by Jacob Plays Some Games If you've been to 1 Island on Laythe, you've been to them all... Do you need a new, fun, and exciting destination for your fleet of SSTO spaceplanes? Look no further my friend. Asclepius is a small, sandy, and fissured world, possessing a very thin oxygen atmosphere that only gets thick enough for planes to fly (or chutes to work ) deep in the canyons. Asclepius is meant to be a "low memory footprint" planet pack that even a potato computer can run.

My apologies, I really meant to post this on the Kopernicus Dev thread. If it gives you any ideas feel free to run with them

You have a stupid kerbal (or 2) preventing progress. You want kerbals with less than %50 stupidity for rocket building.

That last { should be a }.

I have a dream that I can dock to my space station in the green. If there was a way to reduce the physics of a "Station" to 1 physics calculation it would reduce frame rate droppage. There used to be a mod called "partweld" that did such things. But it couldn't do it "IN SPACE". If there was a way to "assemble" parts in space, and then, after assembly and designation as "Station"... a "Partweld" would happen and that whole station would forever change into 1 part. Please awesome people, You're my only hope. -Peace and kindness

Woohoo! It's working! It's working!! Thanks soo much RoverDude and everyone! I have EPL, ART, Regolith, and Karbonite all working together to further my interplanetary dominion... muhahaha!! Horus is right you must allocate 100 units at a time for the fuel hatches. Also, don't use up the rock as you mine it, you have to let the rock space build up in the asteroid before you can reallocate the empty space.

I'm having a problem with re-allocation of asteroid space after I mine out the rock. I can mine the rock, and it stores in the asteroid. After I vent the rock, and "convert space" the available space goes up, but the total space stays 0. (this is a class E), and I am unable to use that space with any of the fuel docks. Am I missing a config/ dll? Any ideas? Thanks for all the awesome mods RoverDude and team!

Not having to switch to the tracking station or a vessel further out would make waiting for my Jool transfer burn from 80K Kerbin orbit a lot less stressful. Thanks for your consideration. -Chumley
