 Yes - I really have to stress, DO NOT load a career save (or a save you care about at all, really) with the dev builds installed. There will be a lot of breaking changes, even from week to week. Feel free to open up a fresh sandbox save to play with stuff and share screenshots, but don't expect to be able to use the new stuff in a proper save for some time yet.

Well, I am remaking Thor/Early Delta. The next update is going to cover Redstone, Jupiter, Thor and Vanguard. But I wasn't planning on changing the way Thor is constructed (partially since I already remade Delta in that style). The LR-79 wasn't used for anything else to my knowledge. With all the new Titan engines (I'm still wondering if I should make a single mount of the AJ3 or AJ5) we're not going to be hurting by not having the LR-79.

Well... there's the Sea Horse proposal, which was supposed to use it (though slightly modified for ignition in water). :)

Also, the start tanks remained on on RS-27 and RS-27A. It would be great to have those as standalone, too. RS-27 is essentially LR-79 without the big lubricant tank and with higher performance, and RS-27A is that with an extended nozzle. I don't know if the LR-79 you have is suited to being remodeled into those, but if it is, it would be a very nice addition.

And yes, I'm aware you're not interested in remodeling the Delta II tail assembly. That doesn't mean there is no market for standalone RS-27 engines. :) If you can do it on one texture sheet, with limited modeling work, I'm sure they'll have their uses (especially RS-27A, which I bet would fit onto a Saturn I thrust plate...). Single-part engine+boattail assembly is too cumbersome to cluster.

The SRMU 3 seg for Titan IV SRMU 1 seg SRMU 1 seg with shielding and half seg SRMU

Expand  

The one "with shielding" is just to show the autoshroud, there's only going to be 2 1/2, 1, and 1/2 segment SRMUs :)

I'm sure people are wondering, why have 1 and 1/2 seg SRMUs?

Where does the Titan 3 equipment bay go? on the transtage or the second stage?

Expand  

It goes at the top of the second stage. It's not used on variants that have Transtage, I believe.

For some reason the Petal Adapter for Apollo destroys the CSM and SPS. 

Expand  

Is this... new? Those parts haven't been touched in... nearly two years.

Check it yourself man. Doesn't work in Orbit and I'm reduced to a decoupler.

The Apollo 8-17/Skylab petals that jettison work fine. BUT when I decouple the LM I can't really extract it without time acceleration.

You may wish to post pictures or perhaps video of what you're doing. I've used all 3; the one with jettisionable sides, the deployable open one, the deployable enclosed one and never had a problem.

Starting a new game, see this loading the game, latest B9 Part Switch is having a serious complaint about some of the BDB parts from your latest release. I'm not sure what the impact is.

IIRC, those issues have always been there, but the newer versions of B9 simply make them visible. It shouldn't impact the game at all.
