Kablob Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 30 minutes ago, CobaltWolf said: Soooo... what does it need to be? Forgot to post this before, but here it is if anyone still needs a better idea of what new parts we are getting in the update. I also wound up whipping up another new part, which I don't believe was mentioned - a 7x engine mount for the S-II stage. Many of the uprated Saturn V (in this case, we are mostly talking in terms of a second or third production run of Saturn Vs, with some level of tank stretch, F-1As and one of the uprated J-2 variants, no fins on the first stage, etc...) designs included this 7 engine mount, I believe for TWR reasons as the S-II stage does much of the ascent and circularization work. It was a really easy part to make, honestly. Just sliced up the original engine mount and rearranged the bits. Is the full-size center-stack one supposed to be in-game yet? Because it doesn't show up in mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pappystein Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I have a MM for the S-IC already. it is the longest S-IC I have found data for... to match the AJ-260+LR-Drop tank configuration.

Probably not S-1D I found a bunch of good material for E-1 and M-1. Oh, speaking of E-1, I don't think I showed these here. Was waiting for something at work the other day and decided to take lunch and noodle around in Maya for a bit. If only all my engines came out that nice... Also, the aforementioned S-II-7X engine mount. 30 minutes ago, Kablob said: Is the full-size center-stack one supposed to be in-game yet?

Pappystein Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 (edited) A few screenies from my test today. 1) S-IVC is and is not working... I don't know why yet but I have had 3 good and 2 bad separations using both the S-IB inter-stage and the S-II inter-stage adapters. When things go good the rocket almost LEAPS from the interstage. When things go bad I have 2 J-2 of various marks burning holes in the S_II or S-IB stage tanks. Suggest a double check on the colliders for the S-IVC engine mount. (You have issues with the ultra low pro Torodial J-2s last night right?) 2) Inline AJ-260 is also missing one of it's 2 Vernier effects in stock. Album /a/62ImT will appear when post is submitted Edited January 24, 2018 by Pappystein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEB'S DESTINY Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 What is it called? 1 hour ago, Kablob said: There's also a mod out there somewhere that allows you to control manned parts like a probe core when they're unmanned. What is it called? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CobaltWolf Posted January 24, 2018 Author Share Posted January 24, 2018 Just to reiterate, but I do not have time to test the mod. Please, please, please if there are any issues (even the most minor ones), it would be greatly appreciated if they were logged and reported on Github. Posting here on the thread is ok, but posting to Github guarantees that the issue is logged and won't be forgotten. I'm currently working on getting as many known issues resolved as possible. https://github.com/CobaltWolf/Bluedog-Design-Bureau/issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gooddog15 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Hey could we get a singular version of the Apollo R4D RCS quad? Some satellites and vehicles such as H-II, ATV, and Orion still use it as primary/secondary propulsion systems. It would be a nice addition since there are not many nice monoprop engines for small satellites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is already in the mod. Has been for a while actually. Since I am IN GAME I will provide the model to look for under CONTROL (not under engines) Kane LTS Linear RCS thruster. AKA a SINGLE R4D motor. and it IS under command and Control. No it does not attach to nodes and no it does not STAGE but beyond that it works JUST like it should should you choose to orient it correctly assuming RCS is on and you have the throttle UP. I will see if I can create a MM to give a "Probe Engine" version but I don't know about node attachments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you would have to do is center it and select the "Fore by Throttle" setting. Although an engine variant would be cool though.

CobaltWolf Posted January 26, 2018 Author Share Posted January 26, 2018 @Kerbal01 I think I found the source of the issue with the Pioneer 6 service module, so that should be fixed. No promises (I know, you're all on the edge of your seat ) but I'll try and do a dev stream tonight from 7 PM to 9 PM Eastern tonight on Twitch. Some minor cleanup of the AJ-260 textures, and generally working through the v1.4.2 issues hitlist on Github. As ever, please continue reporting any bugs or issues you find, no matter how minor. Be they spelling issues, questionable gameplay balance, subpar textures, broken parts... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaiderMan Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 should be something under adapters or plates...I think? coffee hasnt yet kicked in, so I'm honestly not sure. try typing in adapters or plates, see what comes up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent two hours with a MM file that wouldn't give me bupkis on this subject. My much *AHEM* SELF lauded MM fu has failed. I CAN tell you that the linear port DOES work great on probes. I can also tell you that you have to disable FORWARD control for any other RCS you might have on your probe... I actually landed a probe which comprised of an antenna, a single R4D and a re-scaled Agena probe to 0.625 with the 0.625 Stock mono-propellant tank on the Mun. I put 4x rescaled Solar pannels (again stock) on board... and totally forgot to put meaningful science on the probe... It landed in a Biom I have not landed in yet... DOH!

Kerbal01 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 copied the cfg, set the rescale factor to 3.75, see if that works too much! plus bonus Big G splashdown. https://imgur.com/a/RYAAK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
