The only physics-related setting in a save is ReentryHeatScale and it's in the DIFFICULTY node inside the PARAMETERS node right at the top of the save. ReentryHeatScale = 1 is the same as setting the slider to 100% ingame (it's a ratio not a percent).

Works fine. And it's marked as 1.0.5 compatible on CKAN too. -

[SOLVED] KSP Thermodynamics 101
NathanKell replied to Shadowmage's topic in KSP1 C# Plugin Development Help and Support
Yeah, I made the temp gauge edge highlighting tunable per part but not that, sorry. -
If exposure is the same between two solar panels (i.e. sun at the same angle in both cases), then their charge rate will only vary based on: 1. If there's atmosphere (atmosphere decreases incoming solar flux) 2. The skin temperature of the panel (hotter panel = lower efficiency). If---if--the exposure is the same in both cases for you, sounds like the issue might be that the panels in space--with no atmosphere to convect with and cool in--heat up a lot and become less efficient.

Isp dependent on velocity
NathanKell replied to JediMasterSterling1's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
useVelCurveIsp = True velCurveIsp { key = mach0 multiplier0 intangent0 outtangent0 key = mach1 multiplier1 intangent1 outtangent1 .... } There's also an atmCurveIsp if you want an Isp multiplier based on density. You should set a fixed single-value atmosphereCurve and then use atmCurveIsp (and useAtmCurveIsp = true) to vary Isp with density, since prop performance varies with density not pressure. -
I *think* engines are OK now. @Svm420 reported an RCS issue I haven't had a chance to fix yet. Does require the latest development version of Tweakscale I think though.

Linux doesn't display the build number for some reason; you have to go to your KSP path and open BuildID.txt to see what build you're on.

Somebody used the magic words of Real World....mwahaha. Technically all of the things you mentioned did not use monoprolllants at all: they all used (di)Nitrogen tetraoxide as oxidizer and either Aerozine 50/50 (50% UDMH and 50% hydrazine) or MMH as fuel. US space fuel cells have generally been hydrolox so the byproducts can be used as drinking water.

[1.0.2] B9 Aerospace | Procedural Parts 0.40 | Updated 09.06.15
NathanKell replied to bac9's topic in KSP1 Mod Development
Yes. RO does that, basically. -
I've said it will remain FASA. Also, see here: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/123511-the-future-of-fasa/

[1.0.2] B9 Aerospace | Procedural Parts 0.40 | Updated 09.06.15
NathanKell replied to bac9's topic in KSP1 Mod Development
The config shouldn't even be there anymore, the heat shield module is only used for things with ablator now, non-ablative heat shields don't need a module. -
Too tired to update the OP but RP-0 v0.41 for KSP 1.0.5 is out! (Also too tired for a good name and pic). A long time coming, but it's finally here!
