The Agena's only got just enough fuel to de-orbit once orbital (without a payload!), so you'd probably need a solid or liquid kickstage.

Right now I'm thinking the goal is to get the lunar stack in game together first and then move on to the other historical/real stuff.

Separate. The RCS plume deflectors will be part of the descent stage but they'll be toggleable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they’re separate, how is the one with the ladder done (assuming the legs are in symmetry). Also, will the platform right outside the hatch be toggleable?

Also, will the platform right outside the hatch be toggleable? Probably just toggleable nodes to make sure they connect consistently, so the ladder one can be switched with B9. The platform would probably be part of the ladder leg switch, along with getting rid of the surface probe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CollectingSP Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 @CobaltWolf are there any future plans to add support for decals on payload fairings, like there are in the stock game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeSheridan Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 3 hours ago, Starhelperdude said: with what LV would you want to launch a apollo direct thing? I thinks that would be a saturn V with SRB´s. Somekind of an S-VB ( Sorry, i know there were real concepts but i think ever about that since i real stephen baxters book Voyage. ). Long story short: Pack 4 Titan 1207´s on the Saturn V, together with the upgraded F-1A if you like it and you get the payload nearly doubled. Should be enough for a Kitbash Apollo DA and we would not need a single new part other than the ones currently in the works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Launch vehicle aside (there were plenty of Saturn MLV proposals that could fit the bill for you so I don't get the criticism on that front, and in my opinion they would of moved to a direct ascent if the budget permitted it) probably not any landing specific parts but I do remember there being a J-2 engine with RL-10 vernier engines that was in development IIRC. I think that was proposed as a lander engine so you could use that, and mixed with fairings and radially attached fuel tanks get a good looking direct lander.

Crimor Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Currently trying to figure out what's causing a bug in my modlist regarding tweakscale(If I make the part smaller and then duplicate it, the max fuel storage gets reset), and I've made it not happen on non bluedog parts but it still happens on these, anyone had similar issues in the past that I could use to figure out what's causing it faster? The cycle of removing a couple of mods, starting the game, and rescaling a part only to do it again and again is becoming less and less fun :v Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
