Walking Legs

[0111narwhalz]

I've been wanting to see this for a while. Legs in KSP. Now, we've seen BahamutoD's CritterCrawler, but that doesn't work too well for large things. So, more to the point, who should I ask? BD for his experience, or lo-fi for his existing ground transport mod?

When making a request for a mod, it's best to ask modders in general by posting in General Add-on Affairs, which this thread now occupies.

You might try Infernal Robotics to make your own moving legs. Be aware that both the parts and the plugin are being updated in other threads at the moment, so there may be sudden game-breaking changes.

Thanks. The idea was to have a glue-on sort of leg. I imagine it would work like a wheel, but have the appearance and hitbox of a leg. I am aware of IR's capabilites, but I've had some...interesting...experiences with phantom forces and my own incompetence, not to mention the difficulty of controlling it without scripts.

I need an intuitive, simple leg system too, because what fun is a giant killer robot if you need 3 years of training to know how to use all the hotkeys and controls?

What I want is a leg that can operate with multiple others similar to the wheels in stock ksp. it should also be big, and radially mounted. I really want to make something like the SMS Beowulf:

And yes, that is a ship with legs. Six of them. from an alternative WWI. From the Leviathan trilogy by Scott Westerfeld. It is effing awesome. (pardon my french)

BD has released a small crawler, but I think you want a big one.

Yeah, I've seen the critter crawler, but it would probably be flattened by the landships I've made using wheels from KF. Imma probably make some more, better ones now that I have the maritime pack installed. I can put so many guns on them. all of the anti aircraft guns. all of them.
