  1. So, I was thinking, that it would be nice to have a Saturn-like planet between Eeloo and Jool, possibly even a Neptune-like planet between the "Saturn" and Eeloo. Possible name ideas I have: (For "Saturn") Saurn, Satun, Serun. Your ideas/thoughts?
  2. While this pack has been discontinued since 1.1.3, I have tested it and it still works fine on 1.3.1. I have also changed the version # to 1.0 to signal the end of development. I have updated and bumped this forum thread one last time for if anyone's interested. You can visit the forum thread for InterKalactic 2 here: (Original Description) This Kopernicus planet pack puts all of the old KSP bodies into new locations, plus adds 2 new ones. More will be added in the future. The goal of this pack is to make sure there isn't a single planet in the game that isn't worth visiting. Development started on 6/4/16. NOTE: If you choose to use this mod, I highly recommend a faster timewarp mod as well. If you go without one, it could take up to an hour or more on full timewarp to get to some planets. I will add more here as I expand the mod. If you would like to download it, click here to go to the Spacedock page (Updated to 1.1.3, probably will also work with 1.2 and beyond) or alternatively, the download it directly from here. The curseforge page will no longer be updated as I have lost me CurseID. Also, I highly recommend you download from Spacedock if you can, as I like to keep track of exactly how many people have downloaded it, which as of writing this is around 900-1000 people. -- Known Problems: Green = Can be fixed | Red = Can't be fixed - The sky at the KSC stays static, instead of moving based on time of day. (minor) - Kethane overlay on the main menu doesn't appear. Only affects you if you have the Kethane mod (minor) - Contracts sometimes show up for landing on Kirius. Just decline these and you should be fine. - A black screen may occasionally show up for the KSC when loading a new save. This likely only happens when running the planet pack for the first time. To fix, just reload the save. (minor) Please let me know if you encounter any bugs or other weird anomalies that I should add here. Extensions OPM Compatibility InterKalactic already is technically compatible with OPM, but all the new planets orbit the black hole and not Kirius or any other star. This extension should work with any KSP version and any version of the mod, and simply put, it makes Plock and Sarnus orbit Kirius, while Neidon and Urlum both are rogue planets, having modified orbits around the black hole. To prevent messing up the saves of anyone who already has OPM installed prior to this mod, the moons of all the planets remain untouched, with the only exception being Eeloo, which would otherwise be a moon of Sarnus. In order to download this extension correctly, delete your existing OPM mod and replace it with this version. In case something gets messed up, backing up your saves is highly recommended. To download the extension, click here. Jupiter This extension adds 1 new planet and 4 moons, which as you could probably guess, are Jupiter, Io, Europa, Callisto and Ganymede. These planets are relatively featureless and have generally a flat terrain, and are all very far from Kirius which Jupiter orbits. However, Jupiter and its moons could make for an excellent multiplanetary base, as well as a supply stop for traveling even deeper into space. To download, click here. Changelog Spoiler that I STILL can't get rid of for some reason:
  3. Inner Planets Mod Inner Planets Mod, or IPM, is going to be a companion mod of my well-known Outer Planets Mod. Now that this mod has matured a lot, I thought it would be interesting to look at the stock celestial bodies. Because like KSP's parts, there is a great deal of difference in terms of quality. Kerbin or the Mun still look pretty good, but some planets and moons haven't been touched in years. This mod tries to rectify that and give it a more balanced level of quality, that will integrate well with OPM. I intend for their to be two versions or two settings for IPM (I'd prefer the latter, but it'd have to be doable config-wise): A lite version: Fixes bugs or blemishes (like missing easter eggs or ground scatter in weird places) Overal improvements like better timewarp altitudes, better transitions between the terrain and ScaledSpace, etc. Better looking terrain and ground scatter textures A more thorough overhaul: Everything from the lite version More radical changes to the look and terrain of bodies, while not straying completely from their core concept. Sort of enhancing what's been established by the developer/community created lore Below are some WIP stuff, a mix of lite and revamp features: So what did I have in mind for the various bodies in the overhaul version? Moho Still in flux. Mercury isn't the most interesting place IRL, but the old Moho (overheating atmosphere) is a bit too cartoony. Maybe I can come up with some sort of compromise that's both realistic and interesting. Definitely getting procedural craters. Eve Stock Eve has some interesting bits to it, but after the initial challenge of going down and getting back into orbit it's not that fascinating. It's also become a bit too oceanic for my taste, especially for something that's supposed to be like hellish Venus. So the plan is to make it a real foreboding place, with lakes instead of oceans and countless ugly tiny islands (which is more inline with old Eve). I also intend to reduce the gravity from 1.7 to a more realistic (for a body that size) 1.2 g. This will make ground/low altitude exploration a bit more doable, seeing as the terrain detail will be increased by quite a lot. To offset this reduction in delta-V difficulty (it's still not easy), I want to make Eve's ocean dangerous. Kopernicus' HazardousOceans will slowly overheat any craft that lands in it, meaning that you will have to be a bit more careful when choosing a landing spot. This overheating would simulate strange ocean's corrosive liquid (mercury or hydrogen peroxide). This will make the ocean and Eve feel much more unique. The look of the planet will remain purple, but I intend for it to feel a bit darker, more ominous: a hellish volcano planet. In the screenshot above you can also see some procedural volcanic domes. Those are unique to Venus and I think they really add something previously unseen to the game. Gilly No concrete ideas yet. Kerbin No major changes planned. It looks good and aside from some detailing here and there it's fine. The lite and overhaul version of Kerbin will be relatively close. Mun I plan to reduce the density of the large craters and introduce some features that makes our Moon, the Moon, such as relatively flat basaltic plains (the dark grey maria where many of the Apollo's landed). Minmus The basic concept will remain the same, but Minmus will have a bit rougher terrain. I plan to keep the flats similar, but the mid-and highlands should be a bit more uneven. Look to comet 67P for an idea of the difference between the smoother and the rougher parts. Duna Duna is an ugly, featureless lump of red rock. People just want a KSP version of Mars for this one and I plan to give them that (as far as the original layout allows me). I'm trying to go for mesas, procedural craters, more mountainous areas, etc. Transform that central valley into something that feels more like Valles Marineris. Ike No concrete ideas yet, although the rusty coloration of Mars' Phobos and Deimos are much more interesting than Ike's dull greys and blacks. Definitely getting procedural craters. Dres See the screenshot above. Dres is a boring Mun-alike. I intend to spice it up by making it more oblate (like Ceres' neighbor Vesta) and giving it rings like Chariklo (the only confirmed rocky body with a ring system). The latter also lines up with Squad's addition of procedural asteroid in a ring-like orbit a few updates back. Hopefully this will help more people to go and visit it at least once. WIP ring btw, just a modification of Urlum's. Jool More like Jupiter, but keeping in line with dark ominous look of Jool. Laythe Pretty much the same, as it's a very high-quality planet. It's surface will have darker and rocky textures to make it feel as volcanic as it's supposed to. Vall No concrete ideas yet. Tylo Probably going to make the surface more like the real Ganymede: icy and irregular. I'll keep the high gravity though. It's not as unrealistic for its size, useful for getting gravity assists/capture and unlike Eve an airless rock doesn't have as many options to make it feel unique. Bop No concrete ideas yet. Poll No concrete ideas yet. Eeloo The same as the Eeloo overhaul in OPM. If you have OPM installed, it'll move it there but otherwise it'll remain in its current orbit. Thoughts, comments, critiques, etc. are always welcome.

  5. Kerbiting System This planet pack, which has officialy released, is a planet pack that rearranges all the planets in the stock Kerbol System. In later versions more planets and moons will be added and a lot more will come! This is what I let you guys decide. I like to make a planet pack which makes people as happy as possible. For that to happen I need your advice on what to do/add/edit. Very important to know is that this is my first work. So if any bugs are encountered, report them immediately! Let me know what you think and give me some advice on what to do next! I'll make a poll to know what you guys want to see next. Changelog: Release v1.0: Bugs fixed Official release Beta v0.2: Fixed a major bug by changing rearrangement of the planets Changed science values More bugs fixed Beta v0.1: Added descriptions for all the planets Added some small things Bugs fixed Alpha v0.2: Added correct science values for all the planets Alpha v0.1: All stock planets rearranged Given some different properties/orbit settings for some of the planets PICTURES: Pictures Kerbiting System STRAWPOLL: Poll Installation instructions: Just place the "Kerbiting System" folder inside the "GameData" folder.

    Constellations has been replaced by Real Exoplanets, which you can find here:
  7. This is just place for you to brainstorm and share what star systems should be added to the Constellations mod. I plan on adding the ones below soon. Planned Systems 55 Cancri (Copernicus) Epsilon Eridani (Ran) GJ 667 Current Star Systems Alpha Centauri Proxima Centauri (all planets have been added) GJ 3293 (all planets have been added) HD 10180 (all planets have been added) Tau Ceti (all planets have been added) Wolf 1061 (all planets have been added) Ursa Major
  8. While going through the forums, I found a thread for a challenge mission to send a manned craft to Comet ISON in Kerbal Space Program. I found that very interesting, but just one problem: No comet. So I though, "How about creating a mod that adds in comets for different level of KSP challenges?" You probably can guess where that idea went to... The Process The Kopernicus Komet Challenge Mod is both a planet pack, but a challenge too. It will add in 5 new comets to the Kerbol system, living up to what that other thread couldn't live to see. Each comet is a different difficulty level, from super-easy (depending on your Kerbal's cooperation) to highly difficult. There will also be different objectives that you can incorporate into your mission. After completion, a participant must list the following: Game version (Duh) Mods used (more on that in a sec...) Amount of Kerbals (If you used any) SCIENCE gathered Mission time Your destination These factors will determine your score. If someone were to do the easy comet and the easy objective, they would get little points, and vice-versa. They will also get a Badge of Completion (once I can make it). A participant is free to compete as many times as s/he wants to. It is allowed to try to beat your score from the same comet and/or difficulty level. The Comets! As said before, the KKCM will add in 5 comets. This is a list of those comets, in order of difficulty: Enecke: The Comet Encke analogue and the Level 1 comet. Its orbit does not vary much, going from a region slightly closer to the Sun than Eve to the orbit of Dres. Enecke has a radius of 55km and has 8.35% the gravity of Kerbin. Its surface is rather smooth, making landings slightly easier. Bordelly: The Comet Borelly analogue and the Level 2 comet. Its orbit is similar to Enecke's, stretching from Moho to Dres. However, this comet is smaller (radius of 31km), has lower gravity (6.2% Kerbin's gravity), and has a shape which makes landings more difficult. Hallali: The Comet Halley analogue and the Level 3 comet. Hallali's orbit is much more extreme; the periapsis is around Moho's orbit, while the apoapsis is 1.3x farther out than Jool. The advantage is that Hallali has a radius of 72km and 9.76% Kerbin's gravity, along with a relatively smooth surface. Luvoy: The Comet Lovejoy analogue and the Level 4 comet. Luvoy's orbit varies from 3.5 million km to 213.87 million km. It has a radius of 40 km and 4.91% the gravity of Kerbin. Encountering this thing is pretty challenging! KISON: The Comet ISON analogue and the Level 5 comet. KISON has the most extreme orbit, getting as close at 450,000 km to Kerbol, and as far away as 563 million km. This comet is rather large (88km radius) and has somewhat strong gravity (10.6% Kerbin's gravity), but the surface is covered in peaks and fissures. KISON is a comet for only the most confident and experienced players. Scoring The 5 comets are worth the same amount of points as their level. For example, going to KISON will immediately give you 5 points. As said earlier, their are different objectives that can give you certain amount of points. Here are the objectives and how many points they give: Probodobodyne Run: Take a probe to a comet and mine at least 20 units of ore (Adds 2 points). Science Fest 1: Send an unmanned vessel to a comet to collect at least 1500 Science (Adds 3.5 points). Science Fest 2: Send a manned vessel to a comet to collect at least 2500 Science (Adds 4 points). Kometary King: Using a manned vessel, collect every possible science situation (Ex: gravity scan in space low over midlands) with all the reproducable experiments. (Adds 6.5 points) System Jumper: Take a probe that will hop between at least 3 comets and collect more than 5000 science (Adds 7 points). Jeb's Challenge: Take a kerbal to more than 3 comets, collect science from every location on/around that body, and aquire more than 10000 science (Adds 10 points!). All of these objectives require the vessel returning to Kerbin one way or another. Depending on what mod you use, however, your score can drop. Mods listed in green will subtract just 0.5 points. Mods listed in blue will drop 1 point. Mods in orange drop 2 points, and red mods will delete 5 points. Kerbal Engineer/Kerbal Engineer Redux MechJeb Other calculative mods Tweak Scale Star Packs (IA-Revived, Other_Worlds, etc.) Kethane and other resource mods Extraplanetary launchpads Planet packs that add other bodies inside the Kerbol system Mods that change the KSC's location New Horizons HyperEdit Kerbodyne Plus Uncharted Lands Kerbalkind's Destiny (when it's released) Space Y and Space Y Expanded Near-Future Propulsion and Near-Future Electrics DMagic Orbital Science There will be different categories based off of score: Bob Level (1-3 points), Bill Level (4-7 points), Val Level (7-10 points), and Jeb Level (10+ points). The Best of the Best Bob Level: None Yet Bill Level: None Yet Val Level: None Yet Jeb Level: None Yet Planned Features Over 4 biomes per comet. Particle trails I dunno? Suggest something you guys want to see!
  9. NO MORE PLANETS, MOONS OR STARS WILL BE ADDED TO EXTRASOLAR. ALL FUTURE UPDATES WILL BE COMPATABILITY PATCHES, TEXTURE UPDATES, ETC. RELEASE THREAD
  10. The Kerbol system has always seemed a little small. There's so much room for more bodies, and so many minor bodies to put into Kerbal Space Program. In Outer Reaches, things will change. The outer Kerbol system will be a realm of mysterious, uncharted dwarf planets and Kuiper Belt Objects with unique characteristics and moons. Analogues will be made for the 4 outer dwarf planets, along with objects like Sedna and Orcus. There will even be an extra gas giant to keep Eeloo out of the fray and give it some use. Remember, this is an in-dev mod, so suggestions and comments are heavily recommended! The Outer Reaches NETOOL: A gas giant 30% the size of Jool and an analogue to both Saturn and Neptune. It has striking, neon-purple-blue cloud belts crisscrossing a rather dark atmosphere. EELOO: The once-dwarf planet Eeloo will be placed around Netool. However, it will be retextured as an analogue to Mimas. RHEV: A Rhea analogue with a two-faced globe orbiting Netool. One side is dominated by bright ices ejected from a medium-sized crater, while the other side is white-orange and heavily cratered. MAEMAE: An analogue to Makemake that's really...red. There will be a few special crater sites, but I don't have any other ideas. Feel free to suggest some! ERIOS: The Eris analogue. Some of the planet is covered with orange patches of methane ice, but most of the surface is white with hints of blue and creme. Eroos also has some significant craters and mountain ranges, along with patches of Tholins. DYNS: A Dysnomia analogue that has 37% the mass of Eroos. They form a small binary system. Dyns is mostly covered in Tholins, but has some patches of methane and nitrogen ices. IXON: The smallest dwarf planet in the pack and the analogue to Ixion. Ixon is somewhat deformed and is covered in tan-white patches of methane and nitrogen ices. SENNA: The reddest body in the Kerbol system and the Sedna analogue. It is moonless but has a dynamic surface coated orange-red. OCULUS: An Orcus analogue named after Oculus Rift because of its similar name and dark coloring. The surface of Oculus is going to be covered with fissures and extinct cryovolcanoes. VIFT: Oculus' only moon that contains 52% the dwarf planet's size and 44% its mass. Vift is the analogue to Vanth and has an extremely varied terrain. More bodies are coming soon. Suggestions are welcome! Screenshots Just images of Netool for now: Development: Netool, Erios, and Dyns are being developed right now (2/22/16) Rings are being tested on Netool. Textures are being developed for Erios and Dyns. Trying to get Sigma Binary to work on Erios and Dyns.
  11. This is an idea i came up with last day, i havent got any modding skills or knowledges so i let it here, if anyobody wnats to take part on that, feel free to do it, i will be very proud if my idea gets developped into a wonderful mode. The idea is simple, but if im good in anything, is writting stories, so, after presenting the mod idea, i will tell you the story in Kerbal way. Lets start "It was our greatest project until date"- Jebediah Kerman. "I helped with the instruments, so when they told me that something was wrong, i couldnt believe it, so i searched a second option. i couldn't be wrong!"- Bill Kerman The Project Scout was developped as an atempt to explore distnat worlds, in other stars, using the Sun (Kerbol) as a gravitational lens to our infrarred telescope, and to use it to detect extrakerbol plantes and another stars. In addition, one of our cisntist suggested to send it out of ecliptic, to detect asteroids and minor planets while it was relatively closer to the Sun. To achieve that, the probe was sent to Jool, to use is gravitational influence to pull the probe out of the orbit plane and gain some extra velocity. The maneuver was a succesful and our probe was heading to their place on history. Then, something happened. The camera of the probe detected some irregular movements on the solar background, just at the other side of their orbit, farter than the Koort Cloud. After some calculations and other extra stuff, data from all our probes across the solar system, we ended up in a conclusion, kerbol had a partner. And this is the story. The idea is to create another star orbiting into a very far orbit around kerbol (time of transit 12 years?), with two planets around it. One of them will be a brown dwarf, the other will be a little gian planet (mini-neptune)... The idea is that a probe entering the system could use the planets and the star to brake. Around the brown dwarf, an habitable planet (like laythe) will be orbiting, and two little moons. On the systems, it will be a little asyeroid ring and two or three big asteroids (somewhere between Ike and Minmus, with irregular shape). The goal is to create a good target to colonies (with mks), and minning (stock or whatever else), as well as a far system, but capable of be reached without warp (with some interstellar engines or a burst stage (rhino+same diameter engine+infinite fuel, only to transfer maneuver, aerobrake and gravitational assistances on arrival)). The idea is to also design something like a campaign mode, where the mod suggest you objectives (first an unmaned probe to discover it, then a survey mission, orbiter, manned mission etc) that you can follow or not, (yes, contracts). As i said, i have not idea about how to make a mod like this, so i post it there, so anyone can bring it to life... One of teh things that will made that mod different is that i pretended it to be a system designed to be easy to colonize, to travel, while mantaiing the difficults of the trip (as i said, the two planets would make easier the brake). It could be possible that hundreds or thousand of ideas like mine are in that forum, waiting for something, so i odnt order to do that, its only a suggestion, i would be very proud if from that idea, something cames to reality and one day, i could play with my designed solar system. Thank you for reading.

  13. Are there any planet packs out there that have realistically-scaled planets? I want to do an RSS game with multiple solar systems, but all the packs I've seen are scaled for stock KSP (i.e., a tenth the size of real planets).
  14. EXTRASOLAR Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike This mod is still under development. You may visit the new thread by clicking here or the link at the bottom of this post. WHAT IS THIS? The Extrasolar mod adds the red dwarf star "Valentine" to the Kerbol System. Orbiting Valentine are several new planets and moons to discover. Because Valentine is so far away, you will probably have to download some mods in order to make the trip easier. Extrasolar is compatible with 1.3.1 and up. DO NOT INSTALL THIS FROM CKAN!

  17. Saru Planet Pack So I recently thought of making a planet pack that includes a Saturn analog for Kopernicus. Making a planet pack sounded like fun, so I said why not? My main goal of this pack is to have it stockalike. Warning: This is an early version of the mod, EXPECT BUGS! This mod requires Kopernicus v0.5.2 http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/103277-105-kopernicus-beta-05-november-17/ This is the main plan. Hopefully they will look somewhat like this. Mobe - A mimas analog that is modeled after a potato. Ensol - Enceladus analog that is kind of greyish. It will have geysers like that eventually, when I figure out how. Will either use WIP EVE or Kopernicus. Hypo - Hyperion analog. Since Hyperion looks like a sponge, why not make a cube moon that sort of looks like a kitchen sponge? Tel - Titan analog that is the colors of titan reversed. Don't know what the ground will look like yet. Any suggestions or comments are welcome! Please remember this will not slow down my main mod. Changelog: Version 0.1 -Initial Release
  18. The Kronkus system - Kopernicus Planet Pack by MrChumley This mod adds a ringed gas giant with 4 moons. It is ready for career mode with full integration into the stock game. Completely new biomes with custom science, and new secrets to discover. Textures have been optimized for quick loading, and low memory use. Includes: 1 GAS GIANT Kronkus: Huge purple ringed gas giant orbiting between Dres and Jool 4 MOONS Eahpeh: The icy shepherd moon that weaves its way through the rings of Kronkus. Kersex: It's the "Almost Kerbin" home away from home. A whole new frontier with towering mountains, desolate deserts, and fjords that stretch as far as the eye can see. Meelo: Next, is Meelo. The middle moon. Orbits outside Kersex. It's monotone colors are home to the most "sensible" moon in the Kronkus system. Scool: The outermost, tidally-locked, dusty snowball moon of the Kronkian system. Known issues: Kerbin space center "looks weird": Using Kerbin template causes the sky to be incorrect in the space center view. It is, however, correct in the flight view and the flight map view. Kersex has extra ground station(s): The extra ground station is hard coded into the Kerbin template (Which Kersex relies on) and cannot be removed (as far as I know). After extensive testing, I have determined that the extra base has minimal impact on gameplay. During career mode the station cannot be upgraded so its range is extremely limited. Enabling extra ground stations is not recommended.

  22. READ THIS: Outer Planets Mod is no longer being actively maintained through this thread. Click this link to go the new thread, where OPM is being developed by a group of people. Outer Planets Mod Outer Planets Mod is a mod that expands the outer edges of the Kerbol system, to create something akin to the real Solar System’s. It adds Kerbalized versions of Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, as well as several of these planets' moons. At the moment not all of these planets have moons around them yet, but even without any satellites these faraway planets provide a challenge rarely encountered in Kerbal Space Program. You'll have to figure out new transfer windows, manage your power supply differently, provide your spacecraft with more Delta-V and be ready to travel years or even decades. Downloads 1. Download the mod from one of the mirrors. You can also use the CKAN mod manager to download and keep it updated automatically. 2. Download Kopernicus, which is a third-party mode required for OPM to work This version of OPM works best with Kopernicus 1.2.1-1. We can't give proper technical support if you use a Kopernicus version that a particular OPM update wasn't designed for. 3. Install Custom Barnkit. This allows OPM to reach KSP's antennas to each the outer planets in a balanced way. 4. Install all mods, by moving the unzipped contents of the downloads into the GameData folder. You should end up with the folders OPM, CTTP, Custom Barnkit, ModularFlightIntegrator and Kopernicus in GameData. 5. (Optional) Check out the Mods section for third-party mods that OPM was designed to work with in the OP. For example, SigmaBinary makes Plock and Karen a true binary system like Pluto-Charon. Installation note: If you're updating complex mods like this, please do not overwrite the old version with the new one but delete it instead. This can prevent issues, as incompatible changes can be made between versions. To uninstall just remove the OPM folder from GameData. Features Explore 17 highly detailed planets and moons, all in a stock-a-like artstyle Discover never before seen worlds, such as a subsatellite, Trojan moon or a set of binary bodies Collect science in over 140 biomes, with almost a thousand unique science blurbs Custom terrain textures and improved ground scatter has made planets and moons never look so good up close A full set of KSPedia entries for OPM’s various bodies helps you to navigate the far reaches of the Kerbol system Extensive third-party mod integration means you can play OPM with a whole range of other mods Screenshots 2.1 screenshots 2.0 screenshots (slightly outdated, bodies look better in map view now) Mods Supported Mods PlanetShine adds light reflecting off planets and moons to illuminate your ships. The Outer Planets Mod supports PlanetShine and if it's installed, it will cast spacecraft close to Sarnus, Urlum and Neidon in colored light that really adds to the visual experience of the new planets. PlanetShine isn't very modular, so you'll have to install it first and let OPM overwrite it, for the new planets and moons to get their colors. Distant Object Enhancement adds flares for faraway planets and moons, so that they're visible even from Kerbin's surface (like in real-life). The Outer Planets Mod supports DOE and if installed, will display correctly colored flares for the new planets. Final Frontier adds personal merits to Kerbals. It'll help you keep track of which Kerbonaut went where and when, with nice looking badges. The Outer Planets Mod supports this with custom badges for the new planets and moons. ResearchBodies let’s you discover all the planets in the Kerbol System through a telescope. The Outer Planets Mod supports ResearchBodies and if it's installed, you'll need to discover the planets first before sending any spacecraft to the planets. Community Resource Pack gives modders a toolkit of commonly used resources to play with, and helps us all work together in the same resource playground. The Outer Planets Mod supports CRP and if it's installed, it will add resources to OPM's planets which later can be extracted to make fuel or life support. SigmaBinary helps change Plock and Karen into a binary system, like their real-life inspirations. This means that the two orbit around a common barycenter, a point of gravity between the two. This gravitational dance is rarely seen in mods and is quite the spectacle. CustomAsteroids allows Outer Planets Mod to add the same procedural asteroids to other places than Dres and . If you have it installed, you'll see asteroid 'moons' around Jool, Sarnus, Urlum, Neidon and Plock. Note: no 1.2 compatible version at the moment. Recommended Mods Near Future Technologies has a whole range of part packs that might be very beneficial for your (manned) deep space vehicles, such as nuclear reactors, advanced electrical propulsion systems and more (and larger) solar panels all in a very nice stock-a-like style. Transfer Window Planner allows you to have a readout of the ideal transfer window to both the stock and this mod's celestial bodies. This makes planning a mission to Sarnus, Urlum or Neidon a whole lot more manageable. Atomic Age adds a lot more nuclear thermal rocket engines, that can really come in handy to get to the far planets introduced in OPM. Fan made 1.2 update found on last page. Better Time Warp adds, among other things, more time warp levels. This makes journeys to the Outer Planets a lot more doable, as you won't have to wait fifteen at stock KSP's highest timewarp levels. Fan made 1.2 update found on last page. Realistic Atmospheres redoes the stock atmospheres in a more realistic fashion. Its creator @OhioBob helped me make OPMs atmospheres more realistic. As such OPM and Realistic Atmospheres go very well, making every atmosphere from Eve to Thatmo to feel as realistic as possible Compatible Mods SCANsat allows planets to be scanned to create all sorts of maps. The terrestrial moons in OPM can now be scanned just like the stock planets and moons Surface Experiment Pack adds deployable experiments which thanks to dev @AlbertKermin also have custom science definitions for OPM Miscellaneous OPM adds a lot of new bodies, which means that the amount of science that can be gathered has increased by a lot too. To compensate this, since version 1.5.0 there has been a ModuleManager config that balances the stock science multipliers. If you don't want it though, you can remove the StockScienceMultipliers.cfg file located in the OPM/KopernicusConfigs folder. Here's a great Delta-V map for the stock system and its expansion by the Outer Planets Mod. @Olympic1 has started a wiki for information the planets and moons of Kopernicus mods like OPM called the Kopernicus Planets Wiki. It's never done, so if you have time please add some content to this wiki. @PLAD has made program called Flyby Finder that can calculate flyby windows for you. Recently they added support for OPM bodies too, so you can find out when to launch and how to get the Jool-Saturn-Urlum-Neidon window needed to recreate Voyager 2.

Just don't accept them and you'll be fine Thatmo has a very bright light on it in ScaledSpace. Still investigating how to fix it Polta and Wal don't have their biomes linked to the biome map. Will fix ASAP. Frequently Asked Questions Yes and I'm not talking about Ovok's shape. So go out and find them!
