I also uploaded the Rumble Seat and associated heatshield + decoupler. Forgot to take pics but they're there Gonna set the thrust limiter to 50% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it can be expanded to other decouplers and heatshields (and possibly fairing bases). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biohazard15 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 (edited) Small request: please include a "Longer" B9 option for Delta P\K interstage. Currently it's okay for historical configs, but it's too short for some other things, like this Delta-P with Delta-K AJ10 (and this Agena on the right, too): Oh, and speaking of Agena: 8096C needs to be rotated 90 degrees clockwise to match other LR81's orientation. (you can see it installed in correct position on ghost Agena) Edited May 21, 2020 by biohazard15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrbitalManeuvers Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Hello! My BDB and MLP are both from today. The spoiler image shows how the Gemini crew elevator and the Gemini capsule are trying to enforce social distancing. Isn't the elevator supposed to be even closer than this?

My question is about the appropriate distance between the capsule and the elevator, and how the elevator blocks EVA access. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The joke is that Cobalt is on record that Delta IV isn't happening, and that it's already possible to kitbash a good looking Delta IV with Cyro Engines and Restock.

I can second that. Even if BDB is aimed towards vintage U.S rockets, modern rockets could be a great addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flamerboy67664 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Guys did the Kane parachute get nerfed in the latest dev build? I don't know but my Apollo and Orions are smashing in the water at near 150m/s hehe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to hand, but it's mostly Titan LDC parts: DCSS and interstage adapter on top, the white intertank is a short LDC-LF3300 fuel tank with the "straight" style switch and it has a Cryoengines CR-68 Etna on the bottom. The lower tank is upside down to make the lines look better. I have no idea if the scale is correct but it looks good and is a pretty capable LV for under 50k funds fully fueled.

I remember that on the old CyroEngines, the Etna re-scaled from 3.75 from 3.125 was actually was pretty close to expected thrust from the standard scaling heuristic. I've thought about making a patch that updates the size and thrust of various Restock/CyroEngines engines to match closer to their visual equivalent, but I don't know how to scale the engine weight to compensate for the changed thrust.

In general adjusting the mass to give the engine 2/3 of the real world thrust to weight ratio works. Which then depends on how you scale the thrust but by standard it being scaled to 1/4 of IRL for booster engines and 1/2 for vacuum. But BDB uses 1/4 for all engines regardless of role with very few exceptions mostly due to scaling issues.

I have the same issue, and it started after I updated to that version, and there's someone with the same issue on that thread as well.
