The problem is that the released version of the mod has the wrong module names for the Extraplanetary Launchpads integration, so those references in the .cfg have to be fixed. I did so a year or so ago and sent a PR, but of course the original modmaker has moved on from KSP, so they never got integrated with a release.

  Greetings.

I am have asked @Eleusis La Arwall's permission to update / continue / adopt / release this wonderful mod.

Hopefully I hear back from @Eleusis La Arwall soon with an answer. In case I don't hear back, I intend to respectfully proceed as permitted by the individual licenses of this mod as soon as the end of March 2020.

I will provide recognition of original authors/maintainers; and I will gladly step aside should they ever want to continue this mod.

I also plan on including updates from @Krakatoa's repo and other patches in this thread.

Thank you kindly in advance!

More news when there is some.

I just heard back from @Eleusis La Arwall.

Gave permission.

Proceeding with adoption as time permits.

@zer0Kerbal For your consideration, in my game I added this recipe as an option to the Chemical Reactor to recover LFO from the water and C02 produced by as byproducts of the smelters.  I also add small storage capacity to the Chemical Reactor to capture a supply of CO2 and water to delay dumping the excess.

EL_ConverterRecipe
{
    // This is used in the chemical reactor for recombining C02 and H20 into
    // Liquid Fuel and O2
    //
    // LiquidFuel is assumed to be RP-1 which is further assumed to be C12H16
    // and thus is 160.25544g/mol
    //
    // Carbon Dioxide (CO2) 44.0095g/mol
    // Water (H2O) 18.01528g/mol.
    // Liquid Fuel (C12H16) 160.25544g/mol
    // Oxidizer (O2) = 31.9988g
    //
    // This gives the following reaction:
    //   36C02 + 24H20 -> 3C12H16 + 4802
    //
    // With the following masses:

    // Input:

    //	   O2 = 31.9988g

    Input
    {
        efficiency = 1.0
        ElectricCharge = 100.000
        Water = 432.36672
        CarbonDioxide = 1584.342
    }

Wonderful. Had seen and was considering.

Would you mind doing a GitHub PR? https://github.com/zer0Kerbal/KeridianDynamics

Either way - thank you!

Hello everyone!

It has been a while since I worked on Keridian Dynamics - Vessel Assembly and @zer0Kerbal asked for permission to continue the mod. I'm actually very happy to see people still using my mod and even want to update it :3 I propably won't find time to work on the mod in the near future.

Hereby I gladly grant permission to continue / adopt / update / release to @zer0Kerbal. Also thank you for taking care!

A lot of the updates I posted here never saw the light of day and so I packed an experimental version of my current state and uploaded it to Github: link
(versions I used: KSP v1.6.1; CRP 1.0.0; EL 6.5.0; PM 0.0.016.4; MM 4.0.2; IFS 3.6.18.3)

I'd like to thank the community for the fun time I had working on this mod. Special thanks to all who gave feedback or helped me in other ways.

Have fun and stay healthy!

[MacLuky]

I'm giving this a spin on 1.8.1 EPL is just too ugly to look at.

.. but awesome functionality

[theJesuit]

@zer0Kerbal, are you still planning an update to this mod?

This reason is because i'd like some compatability with Simplex Resources.

I had planned in the past to utilise the furnaces as part of simplex resources as well, but I'm not sure how the models are functioning in 1.9 and 1.10.

Peace

@zer0Kerbal has been pretty quiet lately, but I've been using parts of this since 1.6 and played a little in 1.10 before going back to 1.9.1  to wait for 1.10.1 to come out. I patched most of the parts to work how I wanted to replace equivalent EL parts for my game.  I'm not using any of the container system, but most other parts and animations seem to work fine if you're willing to rewrite the patches for whatever mods you want to use. The stock patches are a bit out of date.

The only "bug" I haven't sorted out is getting the roller animation in the recycler to toggle with "activating" the recycle function. I have two separate toggles one to turn on rollers and one for recycling.

I'm really only interested in the furnaces tbh.  As processing metal ore to anything doesn't make sense with stock ISRUs.

The animations for the furnaces still work. The resource converter module will probably need a rewrite to work with your resource chain.

i'm realy intrested in this mod!

is there a version or a download here that works well with ksp 1.9.1?

thanks in advance

The mod was inherited to @zer0Kerbalo for its future update, but no news has been made, and has been quiet lately.

zer0Kerbal hasnt been sround in awhile.  There are some issues with some models,  but otherwaie should work.

Can you upload your bug fixes? I hope to fix this mod up because the EPL parts are so ugly, it could probably be done easiest with some ModuleManager patches to just change the models for all the EPL parts

I should resume work on this (including all the additional content) Soon™, its quite a backlog I have.

This is still a place! 

Lol.  Peace.

Also... will the ground floor stuff be made to work with the 1.12 ground tethers?

And... do you plan for the 3d printer to be a material kits maker or support OSE/ sandcastle or something else to make the parts for thing,
