Either way, more 3.125m parts would be awesome! I don't remember what was written about the ETS Titan V with respect to dimensions - but LDC Titan likely means we get the UA-156X SRMs, which translate to 2.5m solids, allowing a full family of Solid Single Sticks from 1.5m to 3.75m (eventually with the AJ-260).

And UA-156x were on the map for a while. Not a big priority for LDC Titan tho. It'll probably be the first thing I work on when I get back to BDB... sorry for those of you that were waiting for Skylab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe I've said it before, but I'm glad I gave this mod a chance. It's wonderful, especially in conjunction with Tantares/Contares/Cx Space Station. I'm eagerly awaiting for your work on the surface science experiments and taerobee, plus the teased SLS that is supposedly in the works. I've never been this eager for mods before.

(If you want a stockalike shuttle, check out @Pak's excellent Cormorant Aeronology, which is on a track to give the BDB style 'all the variants of all the things' treatment to the Shuttle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I've been dropping lots of hints lately about other modder's projects to try and deflect requests away from here - if I mention it, at least take solace in knowing that it gets my stamp of approval and I don't feel a need to take it on myself. I don't give more info out since, well, I don't want them to be obligated if things don't pan out.

Even if it isn't, we have his to look forward to if the one @CobaltWolf is referencing doesn't pan out. Edit: Don't know if this should be added to the google document for the manual since it's a suggestion, but a possible suggestion is adding DeltaV and ideal payload weights for the rockets in the manual. It could also list different payload weights for LKO or HKO. I know the mod is still being balanced, and this information would hong on that, but I would gladly do the leg work. Also possibly adding information on creating the MOL, Agena target vehicle, and Skylab(when it's completed).

komodo Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) So I heard this new Vega upper stage was going to be used for Atlas launches. This is an Atlas launch... Right? So, the Vega upper stage... Yeahhhhhhhh, About that..... It actually works really really well. (Note for bonus points, the new linear Kane RCS for OMS ports beneath.) Props to @benjee10 for the spiffy parts. Now, I just have to figure out how to not have the fairings rip the wings off... good thing this was a prototype >< Edited November 10, 2016 by komodo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Me and @benjee10 and some other modders have another historical spaceflight project planned / in pre-production. Of course, right now the other modders on that project don't have enough free time for it (understandable) and Benjee10, once he has time to work on KSP stuff again, should probably focus first on updating DIRECT and HabTech. RE: Manual updates for dV and payloads... well, if @Jso has some numbers for us, I can help @DiscoSlelge put some tables in. But they are pretty constantly in flux from update to update. Definitely need to add ATV and Skylab. MOL/MOS is a bit of a harder target, since it doesn't really have a canon design, and the parts aren't/weren't really meant to be built in the IRL configuration of essentially a long tube behind the Gemini; they were meant to be little early game modular station parts.

CobaltWolf Posted November 10, 2016 Author Share Posted November 10, 2016 So, spoke with E of Pi this morning and he confirmed that they had changed the S-IVC stage to have dual engines. I roughed in what a potential S-IVC would look like, with an extension tank and a new engine mount. Just to keep you guys interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the wiki is very poorly updated, you'll forgive my skepticism. And not necessarily wanting to add yet another part to my to-do list.
