GoldForest Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 @CobaltWolf @Zorg Could we get a vacuum plume for the J-2 aerospikes? Kind of jarring how they remain in atmospheric plume no matter what alttiude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont have any intention of developing custom plumes for the stock system anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is my install bugged? You said you made a vacuum plume for the J-2 aerospike, right? Edited April 3, 2023 by GoldForest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you using the normal J-2 aerospike or the J-2T 400k? The J-2 400k has no Waterfall plume, i changed that by just copying the normal J-2T plume and assigning it to the J-2T 400k.

Not having the same problems BTW, just the first time I'm hearing about this version of the J-2 from the mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will put it on my to-do list for this weekend But when I am done with it, it will be an upgrade selection on the standard J-2T (I think I remember how to do that!)

GoldForest Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Pegasus XL Tax. (For some reason the engines wouldn't fire after detaching from the aircraft so I cheated a second launch to about 10km up and that rocket worked. I put a picture of the failed ignition in the album) Full album: Imgur: The magic of the Internet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fyi , you don’t need to provide space for the tail fin, as it was specially made to not get stuck if it clips the fuselage! One of the special considerations that was made during development.

TrackerAerospace Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 (edited) A flexible 3 stage launch vehicle, with an optional HAPS monopropellant 4th stage, Pegasus is the ideal smallsat launcher. As long as you have a carrier vehicle, you can strap Pegasus to it and launch from anywhere, to any inclination! Pegasus is also suitable for a variety of mission requirements as it doesn't require a fixed launchsite! If your payload fits, Pegasus will get it to space. Available along with the Minotaur/Minuteman rocket family, in the development branch of BDB!

DaOPCreeper Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 (edited) i found an issue with the flame texture on E-1 and E-1 mark 2 engine. when started and for a good bit into accent there's a purple chunk (see screenshot)(edited to cover discord overlay). I do have both real plume and water fall so idk if its from something with one of those or with the default one from here. https://imgur.com/a/Py8bPKS Edited April 4, 2023 by DaOPCreeper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybr1d Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 dont know if its just me but id love to see a sofi varient for the S-IC Stage on the Saturn V, Similar to the one in katniss part pack, we already have a sofi varient on the S-II and S-IVB so it would be cool to have the S-IC sofi too. https://katnisssspaceprogram.fandom.com/wiki/MS-IC-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketBoy1641 Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 (edited) Any tips on getting more than one BDSEP sets to a site effectively? I know only one is going to be usable in any one area; but parking a lander strateled o two or maybe three zones seems like a smart way to get them set up.

I know only one is going to be usable in any one area; but parking a lander strateled o two or maybe three zones seems like a smart way to get them set up. If you want to bring more than one set to the same landing site, it's probably best to design your own cargo lander using inventory containers. There are a lot of surface experiment parts in BDB, and more if you also include the stock ones (most of which are based on Apollo surface experiments anyway), and it's not really possible to fit even one copy of everything into the same lunar module, much less multiple copies. That said, getting all of the surface experiments set up is incentive to run multiple Apollo missions. Each real Apollo mission carried a variety of different experiments, rather than the same selection but repeatedly deployed elsewhere on the lunar surface.

Only those and upgrades config? all depends on what you mean by "full Saturn and Apollo experience" If you mean Just getting to the moon/mun then you are probably mostly correct. If you mean Advanced Saturn Projects then you actually kinda need the Gemini and MORL stuff. Having not ever pruned BDB I am not 100% certain... You will want the solid motor folder for certain however. And of course you need the Pafftek Folder in the extras... For AZ50/NTO on your Apollo Capsule and Moon Lander *gratuitous self promotion* Probably a more correct for all Saturn flown flights (IRL) would be: Aero, APAS, Apollo, Centaur, Engines, Generic, LDC, SAF_Fairings, Saturn, Science, Shard, Skylab, Solids, Timberwind (for the nuke engines) LaunchClamps (unless you are utilizing another mod for good Launchclamps) Edited April 6, 2023 by Pappystein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya, that is what I have sitting in my builds right now. I thought the J type inventory add on would work well sticking four around a lander with the truck set up; but those go the same place the truck RCS goes. I will toy some more with the ideas and see if I can find anything less uglified than a stock inventory round on top of a LM truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
