  1. Lmb & rmb with and without alt/ctrl/shift all tried and failed. Can't seem to move it. I think I'll put it down to a bug and work around it for the time being...
  2. Thanks. I hope its fixed soon, it does make career gameplay difficult before solars..
  3. I turn SAS off to coast in deep space, everything else is enabled, (the right click menu showed green triangles against all options) The resources tab is showing each charge stored on that screenshot, it is not balanced, and does not seem to change over time.
  4. The battery is on the pod.. it is holding 40/100 charge, yet it is not replenishing the pod. Wondering if this is a bug, or a feature?
  5. These Stirling engines are fantastic too.
  6. Other elements can get 'hot' too, some need minor activation. 232.03806
  7. Ok I'm at noob stage and have started career mode, I have yet to unlock solar panels so I stuck batteries on my craft, but, my command pod is draining to zero charge, and I cannot maneuver, I still have charge in my batteries it seems I'm unable to use it? what do I have to do to get charge into my pod? - I cant find anything on the wiki about transferring charge.
  8. This is Stirling RTG's not Thermocouple RTG's. Stirling rtg's have never flown, it was considered for Curiosity but research was not complete by the deadline so curiosity has a Thermocouple rtg. All other rtg's in space use are of the thermocouple design. The Stirling version uses an oscillating free-floating piston in He gas, so has moving parts, making it more susceptible to failure than the thermocouple design. Even though it is vastly more efficient I suspect the wear issue is what has caused the cancellation of research for deep space use. You should also note that there are other heat sources available beside the standard GPHS (Pu pellets)...
