    Terrific!
  2. Beetlecat
    I had no idea this was happening. So great! Thanks for the Xmas surprise
  3. Beetlecat
    Spectacular updates! Thank you @NESD!
  4. Beetlecat
    Spectacular! (pun intended)
  5. Beetlecat
    Yes! Congrats on the release!

    Could this also be the perception of failure being high, since it's happening at all? Sort of the opposite of the "XCOM Effect" happening? An 85% reliability still seems pretty risky, especially for an engine, since at any point there's a roll of the "failure" die (activation, etc.), it's a 15% chance of losing that roll. The more rolls you make with that same engine, the wider the failure window becomes, even if the percentage is the same. And then the MTBF counter is always ticking down. From my somewhat limited game-duration playthrough, it seemed to be 'working as intended' and as long as I "charged up" reliability with engine and component test flights before putting them on a mission, they performed adequately. My perception could be foggy, though

    Simple. Does what it says. Adds a ton of atmosphere and visual flair to our bases. Great!
  8. Beetlecat
    Oh, no worries at all. This happens to all of us.
  9. Beetlecat
    looks like it did. ty!

    They both work fine at the same time if you don't mind the occasional double work...

    Out-freaking-standing. This is a pretty jaw-dropping release in an already amazing collection. Nice!
  12. Beetlecat
    with a big enough lever...
  13. Beetlecat
    sheeeeeet. This is gonna be good
  14. Beetlecat
    Rude! ;D

    Probably not at all related to EVE itself, but it sounds (pun intended) like your game config got reset. The 'ambient' sounds in KSP are on their own fader, and may have somehow gotten cranked up. In-game sounds like engines are on their own channel, and likely set to be lower than the ambient noises.

    Nice work! Thank you.

    Make sure it's v0.0772, and not just whatever the previous one was -- there were a couple rolling updates with this latest release.

    No broad experience with this -- but I'm totally guessing that blender vs. unity vs. game are probably *not* agreeing on which axis is which (and + / - getting swapped, etc.) Even when fiddling with positions for indicator lights, etc. I remember having to reverse some values to have them behave well in-game. Someone more knowledgeable can confirm.

    Some/many of the new features basically require re-creation of atmosphere configs for planet packs. The funky blue overlay on spacecraft is a bug. The dev is apparently on vacation at the moment, so the best bet is to roll back to the previous 'happy' version for the time being, and just enjoy the public test version on a game you're not relying on for screenshots.

    Hey, @Caerfinon -- did I see you mention somewhere you had configs to swap the Otter Submersible's ballast tanks to work with Sunkworks? I suppose I could just make them regular fuel tanks and let SW handle the rest...

    That might be better for the Kerbal Konstructs thread, or even the JNSQ one (since those bases were created there) -- I've noticed some similar shenanigans with the the test pads on KSC Extended. The opening / closing mechanic may be a bit slippery. Moments like that I would have ZERO issue with just popping alt-12 and giving myself enough cash to do what it takes.
  22. Beetlecat
    I'm really loving these!

    The blue (or colored) spacecraft glitch is something that I'll happily live with for all the other awesomeness this new version provides. No doubt this is only a temporary state.

    I don't think any rudeness was coming across--but just a different interpretation of what "real time" means --- in reality, as soon as craft separate they become distinct vessels, and go on with the rest of their flight: either to orbit or landing/crashing. The specific game/engine limitation is that we only control one active vessel at a time. The vessel unloading distance is also a potential factor. You can trick/fudge that a bit like what's described above, but a more realistic simulation *is* using something like FMRS so that you can perform the landing in the same slice of time that the upper part of the craft would continue to orbit without having to artificially lob it inefficiently high. Part of me wonders what aspects a multi-player server could accommodate for this scenario... Literally running a KSP instance for each active craft.

    I'm going to do you one better -- I just fired it up in 1.12.2 and... They seem to be working fine! YMMV with some of the functionality here or there, but they're working for all the mainly needed dials and gauges.
