Neebel Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 11 hours ago, Nertea said: This adds, in a nutshell, a second, less cryogenic fuel to the mod - Liquid Methane - and 10 new engines to make use of it. LCH4 is less dense and less awkward to work with than LH2 but doesn't quite have the efficiencies. It's a good middle of the road. Wow. Amazing update and great work, as always.

VCamProbe Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 How do I go about changing oxidizer to lox for these engines? More specifically the methane engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends. Do you want the resources changed to be more like the IRL, if so, you should get RealFuels If you just want the resource to be displayed as LOX instead of Oxidizer, I think there is a simple patch that can be used. Spoiler i have no idea what the patch should be though. I am utterly clueless when it comes to code Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hide contents i have no idea what the patch should be though. I am utterly clueless when it comes to code I figured it out, If I just go to the cfg files I just change where it says MODULE { name = ModuleEnginesFX thrustVectorTransformName = thrustTransform engineID = allosaur runningEffectName = fx-allosaur exhaustDamage = True ignitionThreshold = 0.1 minThrust = 0 maxThrust = 1850 heatProduction = 287.8342734 fxOffset = 0, 0, 0 EngineType = LiquidFuel PROPELLANT { name = LqdMethane ratio = 3 DrawGauge = True } PROPELLANT { name = Oxidizer ratio = 1 And replace the section PROPELLANT { name = Oxidizer ratio = 1 With PROPELLANT { name = LqdOxygen ratio = 1 Still trying out different ratios but that should convert it, Only downside is from what I have seen I need to go into each file one by one to change it for each engine.

I think you may need LOX defined somewhere. Let me see if I can find the patch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mxi_steel Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Hi when will the methanr engiens have lfo compatibility Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justspace103 Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 (edited) Hey guys excellent additions with the methane engines, really enjoying them (especially with waterfall!!). Although i think i may have encountered a small bug. Is anyone else having trouble with the new "Harrier" Engine? whenever i use it my craft enters a roll and spins out of control. the thrust centering may be off.

Why485 Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 14 hours ago, mxi_steel said: Hi when will the methanr engiens have lfo compatibility There is an optional patch you can install from the Extras folder (it's also in CKAN if you use that) which converts all the engines to use liquid fuel instead of cryogenic fuels.
