Doesn't work for me, unfortunately. It seems I can't attach it anywhere at all, not just to Centaur.

CISS can hold stuff rather nicely. Baby Centaur: Shuttle-Agena (with large droptanks): Delta-K (because why not?): A small request - can you make a B9 switch for Centaur-specific tubes, to use CISS as a "generic" 1.875m holder (like above)? Also, Centaur holding pins doesn't seem to work (from what I can see in files, there is no MM patch to add extra node to Centaur avionics).

Beacon 2 (Juno II, CCAFS)

Great work!

Should work fine with 1.9 and later. If your other mods are compatible, I recommend using 1.12.3.

What are "Supplies"? Life support mods usually add mass. Sometimes too much mass.

Be sure to switch CSM to Orbital (this reduces fuel load) and launch to lofted trajectory (100 m\s turn start and 0.3deg turn rate in PVG instead of default 50\0.5). Not quite - Kourou is about 5 degrees North.

Main difference between JNSQ and KSRSS is real launch sites in the latter, which may make it more challenging to achieve things like GEO. But simple LEO should actually be slightly easier to do, due to 2.5x Earth being smaller than JNSQ Kerbin. Are you using MJ, or fly manually?

Speaking of RTGs: originally SNAP-3 was meant to use Po-210. Here's my config for it: PART { name = bluedog_RTG_SNAP3_Po210 module = Part author = CobaltWolf, biohazard15 MODEL { model = Bluedog_DB/Parts/ProbeExpansion/RTGs/bluedog_RTG_SNAP3 } scale = 1 rescaleFactor = 1.0 node_stack_bottom = 0.0, -0.048674, 0.0, 0.0, -1.0, 0.0, 0 node_attach = 0.0, -0.048674, 0.0, 0.0, -1.0, 0.0, 0 TechRequired = survivability entryCost = 1000 cost = 500 category = Electrical subcategory = 0 title = PB-PANS-3 Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator (Eel-210) manufacturer = Bluedog Design Bureau description = A tiny RTG for providing a trickle of keep-alive power for spacecraft.

WILL NOT WORK WITHOUT NF ELECTRICAL! Notes: - Ec output: x100. Meant to reflect Po-210's high output (140 W\g). SNAP-3 used 96 grams of Pu-238. I assumed that it may have used somewhat less Po-210 (otherwise Ec output would be kinda cheaty). If anyone have exact numbers, please share. - Half-life: Uses real figures (0.38 years roughly equals 138 days). - Extra weight: x10. While Po-210 doesn't need extra radiation shielding, it does need thermal control due to high decay rate. - Unfortunately, B9PS does not work with this. I've tried, and even pinged Nertea about it, who confirmed this sad fact. Overall, this thing is meant for LEO and Moon missions that are: a) short and b) need a large Ec source.

And here are NFElectrical configs for those who needs them. @PART[bluedog_RTG_GPHS]:NEEDS[NearFutureElectrical] { @cost *= 0.5 !MODULE[ModuleGenerator] {} MODULE { name = ModuleRadioisotopeGenerator BasePower = 1.5 HalfLife= 8.35 EasyMode = True } } @PART[MHWRTG]:NEEDS[NearFutureElectrical] { @cost *= 0.5 !MODULE[ModuleGenerator] {} MODULE { name = ModuleRadioisotopeGenerator BasePower = 0.75 HalfLife= 8.35 EasyMode = True } } @PART[RHU]:NEEDS[NearFutureElectrical] { @cost *= 0.5 !MODULE[ModuleGenerator] {} MODULE { name = ModuleRadioisotopeGenerator BasePower = 0.1 HalfLife= 8.35 EasyMode = True } }

Remember kids, there's always a bigger G.

Surprisingly, short S-IVB works quite well with 2 APS. Kind of super-Transtage, or super-SM for Big G. Combine with any S-IVB-based lab to get a FAT MOL.

YES!!! This is exactly what I need for that Ariane-sque Saturn-I I've shown a couple pages ago. And for S-IVB in general. Hmm, I wonder how this would behave with 4x RL-10 instead of J-2...

That reminds me: what happened to two-node variant of S-I engine mount? I remember toying with it and BE-4s from Vulcan addon, this was a quite nice Saturn-I upgrade. Sadly, not anymore - there is no such option for revamped mount. Also, a request: shortened variants of Saturn tanks. These would be extremely useful for builds like mine "Saturn-Ariane" above.

Anyway, here's my entry, made in 2.5x KSRSS: Saturn-I...some letter? F? G? A5?

Saturn-based only, or any period-accurate (late 60s) tech would do, like LDC?

YAAAAY!!! My SurveyoRanger finally retires in favor of actual Surveyor! (Please tell me you're making Viking after it. Please. Pretty please. Pretty please with cherry on top!!! AFAIK, there is no mods that add a proper Viking, so we kinda NEED it.)

IMO in this case RS-68 would look better with skirt instead of "blanket seal".

We have S-II tanks for such cases. Also, FATlas IIAS. Soltans or small UA-120s would look quite nice on it. Personally, I'm totally for adding a double-mount S-ID skirt (Mine would be the third vote, I believe).

IIRC Wayback makes a full copy of a website, so I think yes. Library (the most important thing for us) seems to be fully archived.

I suggest copying all the "baseball cards" (as Ed called them) and related pages, from Wayback Machine - I just did this. I may try to make a PDF album from these (page = baseball card + info), but I'm not sure about licensing. Does someone here in this thread have a contact with Ed? Would it be okay for me to try to do this and post it here?

I'm probably a slowpoke... but I just learned that Space Launch Report died - Ed Kyle stopped supporting his site, and it is now available only via Wayback Machine.

Now that's what I call "efficient use of space" Baby Centaur w\RL-10-A3, sitting in Titan 23G payload adapter. Extended bell RL-10s do not fit, though. Would be nice to get a truss and "Centaur white" variants for it. (wink wink)

Elite:Dangerous vibings intensifying. (For those who never played E:D, all weapons in this game are kept inside your ship and need to be deployed, with associated deploying\retracting animations (and waiting time, ughhh). Some ships have hardpoints (weapon slots) in front of cockpit, so you can actually watch them deploying. Somewhat annoying after seven years of playing, but still gorgeous. Especially when flying Anaconda with a couple of Class 3 Multi-Cannons in top slots.)

Looks like you've installed KSRSS wrong. Do not put the whole "KSRSS-megapack" into Gamedata. Unzip only "KSRSS" folder inside it. Also, delete KSRSSVE, since it's already included.
