I've got a 3070, and given that some systems lag on 3080s, yeah, it'll be 2-3 years before we get into the swing of things properly. I get that. I think there are plenty out there that want to make sure that we keep poking the development in "the right direction" (a very subjective thing), and absolutely I will still be doing some with BDB1 until BDB2 hits the scene. After all, people who BDB do so because there just isn't a way to get that historical fix with KSP2....yet. That said, IMHO, what there is in KSP2, the little that it is, is as my Firefly brothers and sisters would say is SHINY. 1 hour ago, GoldForest said: @Blufor878 Take this!

As for taking to to the Mun, I revert all "throw away" launches. "Throw away" being rockets purely for cringe cursed screenshoting. It's not longer in orbit.

Dr. Cattman423 Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 What does the MONK-E-MGL Orbital Goo Lab go to? I haven't found anything to put it with/launch on. When I search for 'MGL' I get the MONK-E and parts for the Praxus Missile. Or is this just a generic science part for orbital space stations?

IRL it was meant to be a primate experiment but in BDB we toned down the dodgy ethical implications of that by making it a goo module. I think there might be a free flying option but Im not sure.

Elro2k Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Hey everyone, I'm having trouble with the reflectivity of my MLEM. From what I can recall, this is a recent problem. It looks fine in the VAB, but the landing stage gold foil is much darker once I launch a craft. I'm starting a new game, and only have BDB, and its dependencies. Anyone run into this problem as well?

Check your settings to see what "Reflection Refresh Mode" is set to, it needs to be at least set to "Low". I had this same issue (reflective in the VAB, black in flight), and this is what fixed it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha512 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Already asked a few pages back, didn't get any answer tho, so will try again Are there any up to date Tweakscale configs for BDB out there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure but can use other mods to do that, you can use "All tweaks". With that you can normally tweak all parts, fairing (fairing from simple adjustable fairing), and many other things.

Elro2k Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Hello again! I promise this is the last problem I've been having recently. I was playing around with the J-class LM, and realized that I cannot lower the hinge connected to the LM. No matter what I change (torque, traverse rate etc) the hinge will not move positions. The extension arm works, and the staging to disconnect the rover from the lander also works. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Mars yet (haven't built an RO install yet since the latest BDB parts came out) but Duna currently in progress: The Zenith Duna mission is my current game's first crewed Duna mission (we separately had an Eve orbital mission). The Zenith is all Saturn/Sarnus and Skylab/Hokulani parts with a Block 3 CSM and 5 crew aboard. Separately, a large SSTO crew lander, supplied by the Koviets, was launched to Duna and rendezvous'd with the Zenith. Finally, a large rover was landed on a LEM-Truck and went to meet the crew of 3 that landed before heading off to set up ground stations and take scientific samples in various biomes. The Zenith itself uses 3 LVN-2 Redwood NTR's and has enough dV to do its trans-Duna injection, capture burn at Duna, and burn back home with fuel to spare.

I can look them up in the morning; but at the moment I am exhausted and just checking stuff on the phone before I fall asleep.

I've unlocked Basic Rocketry and I'm already lost in it. Also, do you only use parts for real designs or do you make your own as well?

I found testing 'why'in the VAB that the hinge was connected to the whole apparatus of the rover but not to the lander even though it 'looked' right. As with everything else: craft files, logs etc go miles in the learned ones here diagnosing things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
