[Kopernicus] JebKeb's Planets Development

[Guest]

This is the official thread for the development of my Kopernicus mods, such as Proksolar, Vulkan and KompleteKolar. Thankyou for redirecting yourself.

On the subject of tutorials:

I shall be making one very soon.

[Guest]

I have a problem. I can't load KSP 1.0.x with Kopernicus. It reaches the end of loading and sits there for ages. Thanks in advance.

[Guest]

Figured out the last problem, but now, if I add an atmosphere to a planet it doens't show up. Here is the code for my planet:

Can I please have some help? I see no reason why it should mess up, so can someone help? Sorry if I sound whiny, but this thread's been pretty dead since I started it.

[MoeKitsune]

I haven't made a Kopernicus Planet, so I can't really help, sorry.

[Astrofox]

I know, the atmosphere thing has to be directly underneath the Scaled version section, but above the PQS section.

Learned that today, actually.

So no worries, I can help out just a bit if you have any questions.

Thanks for solving the problem!

Why would differently ordered modules cause problems?

[Astrofox]

Just the way it's coded - I've no clue, really.

[amarius1]

No probleb buddy. If you have any questions, ask me! Also, no pics no clicks...

[Borisbee]

Also, for future help you may want to post in the Kopernicus thread directly. You're likely to get way more help that way as it is frequented by more people.

Oh and as for your problem, are you not using a template? I don't recommend doing that unless you really know what you are doing.

No template.

theres some minor errors. I suggest looking at one of the existing planet packs - OPm, Trans-Keptunian, New Horizons & Sentar Expansion, and work from those configs, might be easier to start off with thos stable configs and tweaking them to your needs.

This is the config for a Gas giant/brown dwarf.

I'll update if I find errors in your config.

Update/Edit: Yeah, your orbital info should not be under Properties, but instead above it (for the ease of getting your orbit to be exactly where it's supposed to be).

If you need any help relating to this pack, I can help.

Thanks for the help. But why did it work with properties above orbit WITHOUT an atmosphere?

[Astrofox]

Probably because you didn't capitalize the "A" in Atmospheric.

But other than that, if it doesn't work, I've no clue.
