Appears to break the new engine system and makes it consume fuel like the original mode when I tested it.

Since .16, the LiquidEngine module has been considered replaced by the LiquidFuelEngine module, any chance of updating this plugin jgjiscool? I\'ve found it useful on some ship designs which use mixed engine types for variable thrust vs fuel consumption capability.

You\'ll end up with two trees of code plus a variable (See: 'oldWarpSpeeds == true;') that splits you between making the time warp variables from the old and new modes. Tie your warp speed indication text to each tree. Unless you want to imply making graphical assets is easier than that.

Might I put in a suggestion for a variable warp setting? 'Old Warp Speeds' ticked = 2x retained, 100k x removed. Untick for 100k warp but no 2x. No GUI assets changed but there will be new lines of code there and a setting.

Figured it out, I had to convert all the solar panel types (D\'oh, that was all me for not looking closer). Batteries work fine now but it still seems to like to drain from the top one that is placed before the lower one.

Yeaaahh, doesn\'t look like Dropbox wants to not die, would you be able to upload that onto Mediafire or something? Edit: Have zKreuzung.dll already. Do I drop PowerTech_MuMech.dll? Double Edit: nope.

Looks like I have the MuMech version. Edit: But it looks like Dropbox also seems to hate me at this moment.

The solar panels do not recharge the first battery (It is indeed ordered at the top and has been deleted and readded before) when it is fully discharged. Even if I discard the lower stage with the massive battery, it will not recharge the top battery with the solar panels deployed (They are shown to generate power.) Any ideas? I should mention that the topside of that is placed upside down (So the order is, with right as topside: Capsule, Fairing-Decoupler, Decoupler, Decoupler, Battery, RCS tank, Decoupler, Decoupler...) I have tried it as 'Part' and it still does not recharge. As far as I can tell, I did a configuration copy so it should functionally be the same as the new values.

http://i.imgur.com/e7Qep.jpg http://i.imgur.com/LkD4Z.jpg Looks like I have an intense case of the 'nope's (I have copied the configuration over and modified the amount of energy stored in the battery) for staging order based battery discharge. Additionally depending on module type what those batteries are configured as ('Part' vs 'Strut' vs 'Battery') they will either stay dead when discharged (Former two) or only charge up to 100 on a single battery (Latter case.) Any idea what could be causing this on the updated version? It would be helpful if I could actually get them to discharge in order here (Not shown: This design is supposed to deorbit the lower stage while the upper stage can use smaller ion boosters to maneuver around.) since I\'m basically stuck with a dead smaller upper battery.

A well designed silencer without any wipes (Or bafflestrike) should not induce velocity drop. Once the bullet has left the muzzle and the zone of gas interference (Ex: 'Muzzleblast') it does not gain any more velocity. A silencer\'s chamber sits in that forward area and functionally contains the muzzleblast (And in this case: 'The acoustic report') of the muzzle blast within itself*. *Not necessarily entirely. There is still pressure differential between the interior of the silencer and the environment, you will just get a greatly reduced difference -> Less loud report. There are other tricks where the flow of gas can be used to induce resonance and work in the manner of 'noise cancellation' but gunshots are typically broad spectrum compared to cancelling out specific frequencies. Regardless, primary mechanism is through reducing the muzzleblast. Silencers DO NOT rob you of projectile velocity in practice unless there is actual physical interaction between the components of the silencer (Ex: 'Silencer with wipes'). As for a conic compressor attachment: Don\'t bother, as previously started before the nozzles on real life rocket engines are designed for the maximum efficiency obtainable at the time they\'re made. (Read: 'Oh whoops we found that we goofed on the FEA model, so the next production model will have slightly higher output.') You\'d only obtain a theoretical possible gas velocity increase with a massive drop in your efficiency but you\'re not going to get anything from this. Not to mention you\'re running into the problem of specific impulse. I mean you could strap on turbines on the bottom of your rocket and have lower fuel consumption but with a heavier engine you\'re not going to go any further.

Only thing that matters for me next to a keyboard and stylus. This would also imply I have remote desktop support.

So you\'re willing to risk a multi-hundred to (one to-a-few) thousand piece of hardware for a dollar or two? Uh...

I\'d test if those pantyhose (This is very desperate of you, a piece of A/C foam costs only a few dollars/pounds/euros) for airflow restriction. Most people don\'t run server fans like I do. Ergo you could end up with a computer with very, very little airflow.

Mainstream water cooling is highly overrated, given how people do not comprehend the concept of sealing and later start flailing and panicing when a leak develops. Until you hook up car radiators and have a prechill loop that chills a peltier, you really don\'t need water cooling. By the time you need that, you\'ll probably be looking at evaporation/phase change setups with multiple cascades.

Mineral oil cooling is weak, do it the Cray way: http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/ElectronicsChemicals/Home/Products/ElectronicLiquids/?WT.mc_id=Electronics_Redirect&WT.tsrc=Redirect Immersion into Fluroinert, now that\'ll protect you from corrosive ocean air *and* it won\'t oxidize. It also costs an arm and a leg in comparison.

Vacuum frequently (Absolutely do not go 'lol but canless' here. Unless you go outside, mist a bag and dump it in there), buy fan filters. Then tell the mesh filters 'up yours' and put a fine sponge foam filter or a fine cloth filter over that. You\'ll be set. Oh and a filter unit (Like these dudes http://www.kaz.com/kaz/honeywell/honeywell-air-purifiers/ Don\'t get an Ironic Breeze, they\'re a pain to maintain. Go Craigslist something nice and then vacuum it and/or change the filters) and you\'ll be set really. Well, you\'ll have to vacuum your filter occasionally too and you\'ll have fine microdust buildup on the inside anyways (Don\'t worry, it isn\'t as horrible as the chunky and fluffy flavors of dust you\'ll have to deal with) Feeling real OCD? Go tape your case off too or use strips of foam/weatherseal to seal the case. Positive pressure setup. You\'re talking to the person who used to deal with this in the Pentium 4 days: And enjoy the microdust: (This is before I added finer filter paper behind my foam and my side fan.) And trust me, 20 year old carpet with cotton clothing will do much more hellish things in terms of dust generation.

Don\'t give a shit about what the explorer UI looks like, there are plenty of people that will find ways to customize and change it. What I care about is the tablet side giving the x86 hardware an full, actual operating system instead of the gimped down dumbphone/'tablet' OSes you see today (Note: Symbian and Windows Mobile will be used as reference 'smartphone' OSes. Android is instead listed as 'adware tier, inefficient Java-BS' dumbphone OS). Ergo, go Intel, I want my x86 phone that lets me do stupid shit like running Virtualdub or (if somehow possible) rendering an UXGA image over a hour in Solidworks somehow. Keyboard and stylus a requirement.

Also for people planning on buying rig parts: You can get 8GBx2 kits for 40-70USD if you look around. i7-2600k (Seriously, do you need an i7-2700k? Overclockability is more or less a lottery draw here. If you want that extra clock speed, one multiplyer up from there) sells at Microcenter time to time at 270-280USD plus they give you 50 dollars off on their (limited) selection of motherboards. Also don\'t buy expensive, low noise fans. Just buy a noise controller. Even server Deltas sounds pretty quiet when it spins at 1,000RPM and will have higher pressure than boutique fans. I could go on and on...

Dual Xeons are nothing, go buy an IBM S Chassis, WinHPC and slot it full of quad socket blades. Then you will have what is known as 'compute.' And honestly, what is with all the GPU strong, everything-else-weak systems? Needs more storage guys. And from a friend. I like how people go 'lol, 6gb of ram... my system is high spec.' From said same friend. Pretty sure you\'ll need more i7-2700k rigs in a WinHPC cluster to match that... Assuming you\'ll be able to play against 40GbE with your networking there. Also in reference to heat generated: Ironically that IBM S Chassis with the Office Enablement Kit probably generates less heat when loaded full of Xeons to the gills than any three way SLI or Crossfire setup. And yes, you can confirm this when you own your own compute cluster.

At this rate I might as well whip out Solidworks and start decimating some nozzles instead of working with that hellish thing called Blender so there are more than enough parts to cause KSP13.x to keep getting null pointer errors (Mostly Unity there). Nova you better finish or you\'ll have someone dumping 20k poly parts out. Parts that will murder lesser computers.

I believe you\'ll be dealing with X/Y/Z coordinate placement and rotation.

Looks like you took my sarcastic remark about 'bullshit metrics' as a serious statement. I have nothing further to post now, looks like this will be effective as discourse with a brick wall.

Hours of spacetime means very little compared to number of launches. If by your stats, then space stations *obviously* prove that the ENTIRE PARTICIPATING WORLD has more reliable spacecraft than Russia and the US combined? I love using invalid metrics, I should start finding stats on how many parts the Shuttles had as well as Saturn Vs and going 'LOL SATURN V HAS LAUNCH SUCCESS RATIO OF 100%, YOUR SOYUZ INFERIOR.' Oh wait, maybe the reason I don\'t is because I realize that all pieces of machinery can fail. Ah, right, right. Engineering, could be important.

Hi, did you completely miss my post? Apparently numbers must lie or something. ...Please, enlighten us about the MANY FAILURES they had before that. Ah, what did I say about fanboyism again? http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/evil-deeds/200811/truth-lies-and-self-deception Right.

Bioware is dead to me. They can only make Mass Effect (Yes SW:TOR uses the same damn animations and other items) based games these days on the Unreal Engine 3. Thankfully, I won\'t miss them since they don\'t make anything like their older games. Welcome to the new dawn of modern gaming, lowered expectations for an audience that doesn\'t want to know any better and would rather have instant gratification through ego stroking from 'achievements' like 'breathing through mouth 50% of the time' and 'not dying within a second on Easiest.'
