So the image was a split cross-section showing two different modes. I thought it was just a single rocket with half a shroud on one side. Yup, it's interesting how some rockets at the top of the rocket appear magically in the last slide lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, this is probably the last "big" update for KSP1. We have some stuff coming down the line still - Zorg's fantastic Voyager Mars, as well as some small projects from myself. But we simply won't have time to take on big new expansions before that comes. So what happens when KSP2 arrives? Well, we don't know yet. BDB isn't going anywhere, that's for sure. That goes for both KSP1 (these releases won't go anywhere) as well as KSP2 (we fully intend on carrying on our work there). What will BDB2 look like? We don't know that either. There hasn't been any information on KSP2 modding yet, so we're as in the dark as you all are. We'll have to be patient, and even once we get our hands on the specs it will be a long, long process to create something on par with BDB1. Many of the models are probably good enough to make the jump, but the shaders and textures will not. Despite that, we're excited for the future. And on that note, I want to thank everyone who's spent the last 7+ years playing, enjoying, commenting, and sharing their creations with the mod. It has been an absolute blast, and hopefully will continue to be for many years to come. - CobaltWolf aka Matt (Salutes with tears in eyes) This is so beautiful and a proper send off for KSP1 As for KSP2 not sure if I would get it right away, money is very tight for me, which is one reason it took me until September to get BG lol.

Solution is probably adding a value to both (or catching this case in engines.cfg and using default of 0.9).

Even then, it would still take months if not years to rebuild everything from scratch for the new game! Unless Nertea is leaking some game builds for BDB to keep ahead, I don't know how you would possibly go about a making a BDB mod for KSP 2. I understand that modability is a priority feature for KSP2, but that doesn't mean it won't be a whole new unfamiliar monster to tackle! However you go about such a feat, I wish you luck!

If it’s just some errors about that patch not applying, it’s safe to ignore for now till I can fix, as those parts aren’t meant to get that patch anyway.

Blufor878 Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 I decided to get around to making an Apollo Direct Ascent lander. @EndAllFilms requested it a while back, and I decided if I'm gonna make all these orbital vehicles, I should have a proper lander. My design is loosely based on the July 1961 proposal (middle top row). I don't have this on KerbalX yet, I'm still playing around with it. But so far it seems to work. You have to keep the engines on for almost the whole descent. Thankfully it has enough delta V to do so, and make it back to munar orbit, and even get back to Kerbin. That is assuming you didn't use any fuel in the craft for munar orbit injection. Some pretty tight margins here (at least for me, but I am a bit of a noob/amateur on this sort of thing).

My design is loosely based on the July 1961 proposal (middle top row). I don't have this on KerbalX yet, I'm still playing around with it. But so far it seems to work. You have to keep the engines on for almost the whole descent. Thankfully it has enough delta V to do so, and make it back to munar orbit, and even get back to Kerbin. That is assuming you didn't use any fuel in the craft for munar orbit injection. Some pretty tight margins here (at least for me, but I am a bit of a noob/amateur on this sort of thing). Funny thing is that the July 1961 baseline vehicle uses solid propellant motors for the circumulunar, lunar orbital and lunar landing versions (with an increasing amount of solid motors depending on the mission). There is a what I presume to be a contractor version (can't tell for sure as the document only refers to it as Design II) of Apollo that uses the conic capsule from July of 61 is all liquid storeable propellant, but with an unusual SM arrangement.
