Astro's Kopernicus Planets

[amarius1]

alright here's the new Tyrok. still don't know if it works. added the orbital paramiters, rescaled and added the gas giant atmosphere.

No, it doesn't seem to work; whenever it gets to the main menu, the game just freezes and won't load up.

I just removed Tyrok from the files, including the Kopernicus Cache, and KSP works just fine now.

Also, are you considering on making Tyrok's land masses a charcoal blackish-gray due to the heat (I suppose)?

you use kopernicus 0.0.7, right? if not, that would be the reason of the planet crashing the game.

[Sylandro]

I'd help with this.

[Astrofox]

Ok then Sylandro, we need lots of help.

@amarius1: KSP broke when I upgraded to Kopernicus 0.0.7, which this appeared and when I was at the KSC scene nothing was there.

Here is a line of code that occured:

[Error]: [PQS]: PQS already marked as started during Start() method. This is probably wrong!

EDIT: It actually wasn't the Kopernicus Version update, just Tyrok - It worked with earlier versions of Tyrok, instead of the newer one.

Apparently you can see Mysterio from LKO when Mysterio is closest to Kerbin - AWESOME!

(I use Hullcam VDS, and I thought it was a glitch, but no, you can see it like Minmus in the sky...)

[Nansuchao]

I discovered this beautiful mod just now. If I can help with testing, I'll be glad to contribute.

A little suggestion: a planet like Earth.

[Astrofox]

Feel Free to Test!

Also, Kerbin is the closest analogue to Earth in the game, and adding an actual earth-sized object would probably be like adding in another star to the Kerbol System...

However, we are working on some worlds with different types of oceans: one with lava lakes (maybe a few with lava), one that is pinkish (Mr.HappyFace is working on that), and maybe we can add another small habitable world near Kerbin, but it would be significantly smaller since it would mimic a Trojan, or maybe we will place something the size of Kerbin slightly farther from the sun/Kerbol that has a breathable atmosphere.

In the Meantime, you may test while we kinda get around to working on some things - Development will be slow for a while.

Anyway, great idea and we will try to implement a secondary habitable world to the Kerbol system.

Here's the Download of the pack (I went for Multi-modular):

Astro's Planet Pack - Open it

Simply open it and then move the contents in the folder to the KSP GameData, and make sure you have Kopernicus 0.0.7 installed (you can find it in Thomas P.'s Signature).

Thank you very much!

[amarius1]

Alright here's the final Tyrok! be sure to install 0.0.8! Proper oceans yay!

I made a short test, everything seems to works properly, really interesting the position of some planets. They're not realistic, but great for gameplay.

While I saw some moons that seems to be "bite" from the Kraken, would you take as a suggestion a planet with a hole inside? I don't know if it's possible, something like this for example: http://www.gamereactor.se/media/92/xrebirth_999234.png

[amarius1]

can you post some pictures of Tyrok while flying iver water?

[Nansuchao]

Sure I will, but later, now I'm on mobile.

[amarius1]

ok. tell me how it looks. like everything! I haven't had time to test it.

How's the atmosphere? tell color, how hard is to land/takeoff how it looks from orbit

How's th surface? is it flat except oceans?, how do the rivers and lava crater look?

How does the lava look? does it destroy your ship parts when making contact like it was supposed to?

For pictures please use Imgur and organise the images in an album. Cheers!

[Nansuchao]

So, everything worked well until I noticed Tyrok wasn't in Tracking Station and in space too... I took a look (very superficial, I'm not a coder) at the .cfg and I saw the Kopernicus Reference missing:

 @Kopernicus:AFTER[Kopernicus]  

I typed the reference, then KSP refuse to load, it just keeps freezing at the end of the loading. I tried on two different install with the same result... I don't know what's wrong, I'll try to look better...

EDIT: it was missing the "flightGlobalsIndex" too. Inserted as Flight Reference 893 (I hope it's right) and now Tyrok is loaded, but it's textureless

EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT RE EDIT: I checked all the Tyrok's cfg and I'm not able to find the issue. The maps are correctly placed in the correct folder and correctly indicate in the cfg.

Yeah, I didn't see Tyrok either, but I may have found a near synchronous orbit around Asterix!

It's at 9070 meters, but your surface velocity will be 3.519 meters, as MechJeb tells me...

Also, according to Hyperedit, you can't go above 9070 meters, so we will definitely fix that.

The same as Minmus

[Nansuchao]

I tried to land on Mina. Due to the low gravity, I made it Kerbal way, landing on the engine bell. Succesfully landed, I timewarped for the daylight, and...

Quickloaded a bunch of times, same result. I landed on the Mina's big crater.

Kerbals can't walk in EVA on Mina. They seems to float like in space.

There's an issue with the collision meshes. While you make the time run normally, you hit the planet as a solid. If you Time Warp, soon you'll be destroyed like you sink in the ground.

Edited June 15, 2015 by Nansuchao

[Astrofox]

Wat?

That's interesting...

We'll send someone over there to fix it, but until then, stay away from Mina - despite its "cuteness."

[Nansuchao]

Ok. Tomorrow I'll try to land on other new moons and see if there's a difference or not and in case what is that difference.

[Astrofox]

I can test that to save some time, and if we find something else that's bugged out, we will get around to fixing it.

[Astrofox]

Yeah, About every planet has a terrain problem, and I did test a small unmanned probe out on MTM-1 Haricot, and as soon as I timewarped the craft did fall through.

[Nansuchao]

Good to know... Now I'm sure it's not a problem of my install... Will it be difficult to fix?

[Astrofox]

I'm not really good with PQS mods and stuff like that, and considering the Kopernicus Updates may have altered the code it may be possible that the planets will take a while to be fixed on their own.

However, I'm sure the Gas Giant Mysterio is "safe" to land on, that is, if you call exploding because of pressure "Landing".

*Now plant a flag on the surface! Seriously, someone did that with Jool*

[Nansuchao]

Yes, I saw the Jool flag on YouTube. It was planted thanks to a glitch.

This Time Warp thingy is weird. It's the first time I meet it. Maybe the guys from Outer Planet can help...
