I know this is a random question, but is there any way to increase the size of the sun flare for those of us playing on Real Solar System? I put in the .assets file into the x64_data folder and the flare itself worked great. There's just some graphical issues when you get closer to the sun. At around Mercury's orbit, the actual sun starts to clip through the flare, since the flair isn't re-scaled for the larger sun present in RSS. Could anyone either make the flair larger or tell me how to do it? Thanks!

Proud owner of a relatively large expensive telescope here. I mainly use it for astrophotography, but I think I can still help you out. Light pollution is an incredibly large factor when it comes to observing things, especially deep sky objects like star clusters and nebulae. Even though I still manage observing from my suburban part of town, try and get out into a rural area if you can. You might not like this next part, but the costs add up pretty quickly for a nice scope. I would recommend a computerized GoTo telescope if you're willing to upgrade. After a simple alignment procedure that involves you pointing the telescope at a few random stars, the telescope will automatically target anything you chose from it's database. Celestron makes a great series of introductory GoTo scopes called the NexStar SE series. (http://www.celestron.com/browse-shop/astronomy/telescopes/series/nexstar-se-computerized-telescopes) I started out on the six inch model, which costs around $900 if you get some of the optional accessories. Due to their advanced mounts, you won't get that large of a telescope for your money. If you think you can handle tracking manually, go for a Dobsonian telescope. An eight inch GoTo will cost you $1,200, but an eight inch Dobsonian telescope might cost you half of that. No matter what you buy, if you ever decide to invest in a new telescope, you certainly won't regret it. I got my old six inch telescope about a year ago, and I've been hooked ever since. I even bought a larger telescope just recently. On an related note, check out some of the free night sky apps if you have a smart phone. Saturn and Mars are both visible after sunset, and should be easy to find with the aid of an app that shows you what you're looking at. Let me know if you have any more questions, i'll be more than happy to answer them.

I'm really enjoying the life support mod you linked in the "recommended with" section. However, the inline parts in it are built for the stock 2.5 meter parts (I think). Would you consider rescaling the parts and adding them to this mod? I think it would make a lovely addition.

I having trouble changing the speed of light to something more realistic. The settings file saves what I changed it to now, but the change isn't implemented in the game. Any idea on how to fix this?

I was toying around with the Real Scale solar system mod earlier today and I noticed a six second signal delay from my relay around Kerbin to the Mun. I figured that you had scaled down the speed of light to fit with the vanilla system, so I went into the config files and changed it. However, upon reopening KSP it appeared that I hadn't done anything to it; there was still a six second delay. I went back to the config files to see what I did wrong and it appeared to have automatically gotten rid of my changes, despite the fact that I had saved it. So upon seeing you fixed a similar glitch, I installed 1.2.6 and was wondering, how do I access the settings file? I can only find the files for the the probe cores, mech-jeb, and antennas.
