FSfuelSwitch to every tank

[micha030201]

This small ModuleManager config adds module FSfuelSwitch to every fuel tank in game, including non-stock. I'm sure someone has made something like that, but all I could find was this (http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/121321) config which adds FuelSwitch module to tanks personally, and works with stock tanks only. UPD: Yep, veryinky did, I'll make update which calculates cost correctly based on his code as soon as I understand how the price should be calculated (I don't really play career).

I spent a while trying to get this to work, and with MM and FS installed, I don't get a tweakable on any stock fuel tanks. I later added tweakscale for good measure and saw the tweakable for size but still nothing for fuel type/tank setup.

Edit: line 5 needs a closing ] and it should be good to go. Credit to Daz/Dazpoet.

This small ModuleManager config adds module FSfuelSwitch to every fuel tank in game, including non-stock. I'm sure someone has made something like that, but all I could find was this (http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/121321) config which adds FuelSwitch module to tanks personally, and works with stock tanks only.

I wrote a config that works for all fuel tanks, stock or mod, at the end of that thread, plus it calculates empty tank prices correctly. You're welcome to use it if you want.

I've also written a more advanced version that allows for a 20%monoprop/80%lf+oxy, 20%monoprop/80%oxy, and 10% battery+10% monoprop+80%lf+oxy

For all in one "service module" style fuel tanks.

line 5 needs a closing ]

Fixed. Sorry.

[woot]

Back in .23 or so I had a tweakable on my procedural tanks that allowed them to be LF/O, LF, monoprop, xenon, etc. that I'd love to have back. It's annoying to have to switch tanks if I decide monoprop might work better in a design.

I'm now also using Nertea's cryoengines so I guess such a solution would have to utilize InterstellarFS rather than Firespitter. I wonder if I could use veryinky's FSFS code for most tanks and then have a different part for hydrolox using IFS. Any thoughts?

[micha030201]

I guess such a solution would have to utilize InterstellarFS rather than Firespitter.

I don't understand what exactly is different between InterstellarFuelSwitch and FSfuelSwitch. As far as I understand you just want to switch between more resources instead of LF/OX,LF,OX? Adding more resources to fuel tank isn't hard on it's own, the tricky part is to calculate amounts correctly. Currently my config calculates it by taking amounts of LF and OX from tanks and adding them, because their density is the same. I'll try to make it use more complicated approach, but I don't have much to offer by now.

[NecroBones]

BTW, I opened an issue on CKAN concerning this config pack:

https://github.com/KSP-CKAN/NetKAN/issues/1981

Just thought you might want to weigh in.

Basically, in CKAN it's listed with a "conflicts" rule against the "Interstellar Fuel Switch Core", which is breaking things for people who want to use this config in conjunction with other mods that require the Interstellar Core as a dependency. The "core" only adds the DLL, not any configs to stock tanks, so it's an unnecessary restriction. The Firespitter Core and Interstellar Core work together just fine.

[NecroBones]

BTW, I noticed that the config adds the "FSfuelSwitch" module to all tanks, whether it has that already or not. Also, it's not also checking for "InterstellarFuelSwitch" modules either, which add the same functionality. I would suggest adding a "not" condition for both of these. For instance, this line:

@PART[*]:HAS[@RESOURCE[LiquidFuel],!RESOURCE[MonoPropellant],!RESOURCE[Oxidizer]] //bipropellant tanks

could be:

@PART[*]:HAS[@RESOURCE[LiquidFuel],!RESOURCE[MonoPropellant],!RESOURCE[Oxidizer],!MODULE[FSfuelSwitch],!MODULE[InterstellarFuelSwitch]] //bipropellant tanks

[micha030201]

Updated, thanks.

[Kibbynought]

Possibilty of adding support for the EPL resource line?

[Jenyaza]

I have some "useful" changer for this mod, maybe you found it useful too. Changes:

Spoiler

For regular liquidFuel/Oxidiser tank: LiquidFuel/Oxidzier,  LiquidFuel,  MonoPropellant.

For liquidFuel tanks:  LiquidFuel,  LiquidFuel/Oxidzier,  MonoPropellant.

For RCS tanks (why not?) MonoPropellant, Oxidizer (if someone need it, someone get it)

Put ElectricCharge in fuel tank - not the best idea, IMHO.

You still be the mod author i still play with my version, so if you prefer, you can update mod. Full code is in second spoiler,
