Hi

This is a fork of the great Monkey Business Inc. parts with additions from me.

Grab the orginal here →http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/111669-0-90-Monkey-Business-Inc

As I did not hear anything from Blacksky33 regarding an update for 1.02 or beyond of his great parts i took matters in my own hands.

So what parts are included from Monkey Inc?

- All fuel tanks (internal/external)

- Escapeshroud Mk1

- Ring Landing Adapter

- Ring Service Bay

- Mystery Good Inline

- Ring Hybrid Lander (internal/external)

What did change?

- All attachment nodes (fixed for 1.02).

- The shroud does not have a decoupler anymore so bring your own.

- For successful decouple in the external fuel tanks use only the inner nodes, the top and bottom nodes will not work anymore (solves the problem of decoupling of stacked fuel tanks)

- Added support for TAC Live support mod in the Service module (inline part)

- When you build a orion craft make sure to attach the engine at the external part!

- CommunityResourcePack is a depency now!

- ModuleManager is a depency now!

What was added?

Configs:

I added some configs (for Life Support) to make it more NASA Orion like.

Parts:

- Mk2 Decoupler

- Mk3 Decoupler

- Mk2 Reaction Wheels

- Mk2 storage bay

- New orion capsule

- New orion adapter

- New Orion FBC

- New Orion like RCS

- Mk3 storage bay

- KWR Fairing 3.5m without decoupler

What other mods are supported?

- Tweakscale

- NearFuturTech

- Interstellar Fuel Switch

- Mk1 Cargo Bay (as an inline cargo bay in the monkey fuel tanks)

- Mk2 to 1.25m Recessed Adapter (fixed attachment nodes for 1.02 and texture, dowload and play)

Is this compatible with the parts from Monkey Inc?

NO, as it uses the same internal part names. Using both can lead to mystirious behaviour! You can however use the parts that are not included!

Why a fork and not just update the Monkey parts?

I don't use all of his parts, so I only made an update of those I use.

In the process of updating it became clear that some things needed to be changed completely to work with 1.02 or because i wanted it different, so a fork seemed in order.

No pics no clicks?

There you go!

Where to get it?

Version: 1.0.2

Kerbalstuff: https://kerbalstuff.com/mod/772/ORION%2C%20Monkey%20Business%20Inc.%20Parts

OK,OK but why???, what can i actually build with them?

How about a satellite with integrated return stage with not a trillion of tanks attached to go to the mun or beyond...

Are there optional mods? YES

Download removed as it violates the older license. You'll have to switch to a CC-NC-SA-4.0.

Have a nice day!

[DuoDex]

Download removed again, after examination of the licenses you will have to either remove sumghai's part's and keep your current CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0, or remove blacksky33's stuff and go back to a CC-BY-SA-4.0

Sorry for the confusion, legalese befuddles me often.

EDIT: PM me if you have any questions, I'll have a look and make sure everything is set if you want.

Hi DuoEx,

As far as i understand the licences are quite similar but the CC-BY-NC-SA does also not allow comercial distribution. As this is not the case here why are they not compatible ?

Thanks for shedding some light!

You have to follow the EXACT same license.

Just a quick update, im working on a Orion like capsule in terms of looks (retexture) and capabilities. However these are adapted to fit into the kerbal universe. I'm in the testing phase now :-)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but as long as the assets are not merged it should be OK. Any asset can be released as per licence from respective author. Any configs/assets you create will be under any licence you wish. This would mean that you would need to ship with two or three separate licenses which would need clear documentation. But apart from perceived silliness I can't see a problem.

Just a quick update, i work with Kaserin on new Orion part models. But as always no eta....

[ManuxKerb]

Hi

Version 1.0 release. Now you can cuild SLS 70 with this pack and the recommended mods!

[kenbobo]

Question- what all parts are made by other authors?

[ManuxKerb]

Hi kenbob5588

No I made the mk3/mk2 parts and added some textures to other/old ones. :-) I'm working on a mk3 storage bay at the moment but i'm a beginner at modeling so it will take some time.

Have fun with the parts :-)
