[1.6.1] Chaka Monkey 161

[YANFRET]

Status Update

New textures for Advanced Monkey Launch Vehicle, and testing new KW Thor boosters for AMV-S (Advanced Monkey Vehicle - Solid)

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Table]

Nice, what happens if we have the KW Rocketry packed installed too? Will the parts from this mod conflict?

[YANFRET]

Oh no, our license agreement with KW specifies no conflict interaction, the parts get new CFG's with bespoke names.

I think we should scale these up even more... the performance needs to justify the solid option. This idea came about in the first place as a way to send 3.75m launchable modules to orbits above Mun ... so far we're not getting that.

[YANFRET]

This would be the upper limit:

I must ask, why is the Falcon 9 painted orange? It's kerolox, which isn't really cryogenic. 

[YANFRET]

It's not a Falcon 9, it's a larger diameter vehicle intended to represent a future development, shown without paint, like Atlas, for fun.

That's fair.

A lot of little ( yet deal breaking ) bugs have been squashed. Still working a few issues with docking / undocking, and a few vendors are still working on new models. Soon esque? 

[YANFRET]

Monkey Transfer Vehicle 7 is largest diameter MLS payload yet:

Great work so far, thumbs up!

But I think you should tidy up your installation folder a little.  For a lot of "part.cfg" files there exists "part - Copy - Copy.cfg" and "part - Copy (2).cfg" and "part - Copy (2) - Copy.cfg". KSP loads all of them and this is probably not want you want. And in CMES->Structural->SLS_CM is and old zip files for fairing which probably does not belong there..??

<Edit:>
I have to correct myself. It looks that the different config files indeed belong to different parts, althouth their file name suggests that this is the same config file existing multiple times...
