finally released ay? very nice, ill have a look when i get a chance

[yafeshan]

Great. I have been waiting for this. Thanks for supplying this to ksp. now please tell us if it is possible to put our favorite planet packs in your galaxy?

@Killashley

I am playing with your pack and no intention to stop anytime soon. is it possible to modify this so that i keep playing in your solar system and visit others?

[KillAshley]

@yefeshan, I'll whip up a mm compatibility patch

@Artyomka15

I just gave a quick test and noticed quite a few errors, though I'd share.

-the black hole has stock sun flare, it glows bright yellow

-nim's corona is pure white (normally this is a file path error)

-sunlight on the Kerbol system's bodies is coming from the black hole, and the side of planets facing Kerbol is recieving no light from Kerbol

-atmosphere settings have been updated a while ago, it's clear you got these from New Horizons or OPM, look at NH's configs for the latest update

-you probably shouldn't edit the system.cfg in the main Kopernicus folder, it breaks compatibility with other packs

-after looking over your configs i noticed that you don't actually need to include kittopiatech, as everything it does kopernicus can do (& better)

If you need a hand fixing any of these issues gimme a shout, as I actually made a system just like this a while ago while experimenting so i know alot about fixing up these little errors.

Thanks, I will fix these bugs

Intrigued by the idea of multiple star systems... how do you handle the long travel times between them? And are they independent systems, or are they scaled up gas giants/moons orbiting a central point?

[Artyomka15]

@Killashley

Black hole works normally, i see no problems with it but i see problem with nim's corona... Tomorrow i'll release fix

Do the planets have biomes? These look really cool.

[Artyomka15]

This is BETA

Planets have no biomes, but in next versions i'll make biomes and more other things...

[Svm420]

Awesome to hear great job on them so far. Will use these stars to change up boring old kerbol!

[Artyomka15]

Neutron Star! (coming soon)

Radius - 30 km

Gravity - 9000g

Rotation period - 3 seconds

[Alkahest]

This is a pretty awesome mod, I do have some comments, however. Some of which have already been mentioned. Sunlight on Kerbin doesn't derive from Kerbol for whatever reason. I can't seem to see where the Black Hole is, at the center of the system is a really tiny white star but I can't seem to find the black hole. Also Errevate's glow is ridiculous for a low brightness star like that, I shouldn't be able to see the corona from zoomed out in the star map.

Other than those, so far it's pretty awesome, keep up the good work.

I found a bug which all the solo systems will not load

p.s. why not add interstellar wormholes into ksp for short-cuts between solo systems

Planet makers have limits. We are not gods.

[KillAshley]

We are not gods.

Speak for yourself

[Alkahest]

If you wanna do Interstellar travel, use the Interstellar Extended mod, or the IXS Enterprise mod. Wormholes are somewhat tricky because unlike Portals from Portal, you can enter and exit a wormhole from any direction.

[Artyomka15]

I have no problems with sunlight and black hole..

All works perfectly on my computer

Same here, though the planets could be improved.

[Alkahest]

From what I can tell it's like Kerbin doesn't actually rotate, if you speed up time you actually orbit Kerbol and the Mun comes around, but Kerbin itself doesn't seem to turn when you're not in Map View. Here're pictures for the Sun not lighting Kerbin, and apparently not seeing the Black Hole (I am using EVE and the Interstellar Astronomer's Visual Pack if that matters):

I'll fix bug with planets atmospheres at the next update, if you about that...

[Alkahest]

Yeah, even without any other mods on a fresh install, it's dark on Kerbin in the middle of the day. I have no clue what it is, but there's a bug in the mod.

[Alkahest]

I'm not blaming anyone, I was just stating there was an issue somewhere in the files that were included in the Mod Download, if it's Kopernicus then cool. Also if you know, on a fresh install, only the Kerbol system shows up in the map, I can see the Black Hole now but none of the other stars show up.

[Artyomka15]

New version will be released tomorrow.

Features in new version:

Added EVE configs

Added neutron star with planets

Fixed atmosphere bugs

[Alkahest]

Do you have any idea why none of the other systems are displaying on my tracking station?
