YANFRET

Yeah, but we update when KSP updates. If we don't, then you can't have Chaka because Squad breaks at least ten of our rockets when they do. (see I get to vent as well!) Our last version came out when 1.0.4 went live, that's a pretty long time!

Edit

Correct... without doing a lot of homework we threw that on a few engines just to see what would happen, and didn't tinker with it further. More on that later. Yeah! The concept was rolled out before 1.0.5 and now it doesn't work until we re make the Orion Spacecraft Adapter Collider. This is simple enough, but didn't want to put the update off any longer. So the part was pulled from Orion however it gets used for other things so it's still in the pack.

Tell me more about "Orion MES with an extended nozzle" Regarding the ejection, it's a known issue and we chose to roll with the update before having time to fix it, so as the first askor of the question, your inquiry has been attached to Monkey Action Ticket #646-28219. Thank you! Thousands have asked, few have the answers

None. You copy the contents of GameData from the zip and open the craft included.

All new craft files.

You're welcome guys. We're up all night to get Monkey

1.0.5 SLS Verification flights As with the other systems, new booster sep configs for SLS follow the new MLS format, also reduced parts count of booster by 16 pieces. Things are really rolling through now. Took some time today to go back and update all the paperwork, the new licenses, packaging the download and checking for un-needed parts or files. The plan is to go live tonight or tomorrow.

All I can say is, when you notice the licenses and images being updated on the first page (which they are being), it's a safe bet we're close.

^ That's because you're using it in 1.0.5 (see page 1), the next update will fix

1.0.5 Munar 2x Validation Flight Polar exploration accessible

Indeed! Testing is going well

1.0.5 Monkey Transfer Vehicle Block I Reduced truss section and canted hab to 45 degrees for improved dock port access

: ) Very working:

In other news, I just spent two hours un-ducking various craft files so that they work in 1.0.5, and so far all the EMLV systems are now 1.0.5 flight rated, included the aggressive "Orion Plus" system with the bonus hab module stashed above the ICPS.

1.0.5 Status Update Testing resumes of Duna systems in final prep for the 1.0.5 rollout. Special thanks again to NoOneSpecial, MeCripp, Blackheart612 and Kartoffelkuchen for manufacturer support, updating collider models and beating things with sticks. Presently all models are working in 1.0.5 and all that is left is to flight test and validate each craft file for unforeseen issues.

▲ It was not planned but since you asked we will look into it

[quote name='Phineas Freak']Also, on the point of reusing parts: i noticed that you create multiple types of tanks by copying the model into a new folder and changing just the texture. It is possible to use multiple textures for a model in the same folder by using the MODEL{} instead of the mesh = <mymodel.mu> functionality. [CODE] MODEL { model = <Path/To/Model> scale = <Size, Of, Model> texture = <Path/To/Template/Texture, Path/To/New/Texture> } [/CODE] TAC Life Support uses this method to reuse a single container model for multiple parts by changing the texture. Check [URL="https://github.com/taraniselsu/TacLifeSupport/blob/master/GameData/ThunderAerospace/TacLifeSupportRecyclers/AirFilter.cfg"]here[/URL] for an example.[/QUOTE] It's kind of a workflow thing, easier to keep up with and track this way. If it were a static system that never changed then yea [quote name='Jimbodiah']Yanfret: NP, it's just that I had tons of crashes (the orion tanks cluster and the altair lander pod would cause huge fps drops) with the current version and decided to take out the other parts I don't use and found that almost all the cfg files were copies of something. I'll hold off until 1.1, can't wait for KSP to get their act together and move to the 21st century ;)[/QUOTE] Use of Chaka 1.0.4B in 1.0.5 is not supported and will result in fire, death, voiding of warranty, and possible attack by tentacle creature.

[quote name='Jimbodiah']Please check your files, there are tons of copy(1) and copies of copies of the .cfg files in your dirs.[/QUOTE] This is intentional. There are many situations where we require different sizes and shapes of the same model/texture combo. Rather than using a new part, we will save your memory overhead by re sizing and re using an existing model. Also, the complex craft and mission requirements of chaka dictate multiple versions of similar products. We apologize for not taking the time to name the cfg files to reflect the part names in game, perhaps that is a great Sunday afternoon project to be undertaken before our next update. Speaking of updates, we have decided to saturate one of our primary vendors with requests that relate to the true next generation of Chaka, the edition intended for KSP 1.1, rather than focus those resources on 1.0.5 compatibility this week. Really, we could push out a version that works with 1.0.5, but perhaps it's best that we focus on moving things to the next level with exciting new products for 1.1. If you disagree and you're dying for an ASAP 1.0.5 release, please give us feedback so we can consider the options.

[quote name='NathanKell']A PSA on colliders. Thomas P. found the source of the issue: In preparation for Unity 5 (which does not support concave colliders), the new mu importer in KSP 1.0.5 will ignore a collider's concavity setting and force it to convex. While Thomas has demonstration code written to force colliders back to being concave, it's a bit of a moot point because 1.1 is coming, where concavity is no longer supported at all.[/QUOTE] I'm going to interpret this as your personal guarantee that when 1.1 drops we can take the weekend off, tick up our version number and relax knowing there won't be a single action ticket for Chaka to read that day! Lol
