Guest Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 It works already, I'm more interested in when we'll see proper foil with the revamp (it's not entirely clear whether that's the case on the pics). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not done any new foil textures, but will likely have to at some point. I am staying away from all the texture switching, it's too much work to make it look good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 That's good to hear. You may consider a gold/silver foil switch, the way @Nertea did on some of his parts, but in general, texture variants add work without adding much value.

Many science parts have no fonctionality. On 2/16/2020 at 12:30 AM, akron said: It should already be mostly functional, with updated dependencies.

I can confirm that the Dev-Version works in 1.8.1. You need to replace the dependencies (DMagicScience Animated and Firespitter) with the newest versions. Then the Scienceparts works well.

Oppulse|12 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Will you implement some MER rovers (aka: Opportunity and spirit rovers) in your mod Akron? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would absolutely love to, just understand that I am a single dad now and my mod time has reduced drastically, so the chances of a lot of new parts to get done is very slim. I am now just trying to get Viking and the part remakes done. Edited February 27, 2020 by akron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also:One of the thing you will have to pay attention to is the wheels they have some sort of "Bouncy System" which is this: It is not really hard with today's ksp parts i think but anyways have a nice day!

It's called a rocker-bogie mechanism and unless there's some API update I missed it's damn near impossible with the stock wheel code 12 hours ago, nepphhh said: Respect, king.

He is already fairly curious about astronomy and space travel, so maybe we can work on the mod together 12 hours ago, Wirelex said: challenge like Short time upgrade mod ???

DeadJohn Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) @akron Thanks for making this. The SAR-15 alone is worth installing the mod; you've replaced the awkwardly-shaped stock M700 survey scanner and the SCANsat terrain mapper with a single, prettier part. Suggestion: I noticed that the only science container probe core is CA-V601 'Aegis'. The "collect all" function is very useful when making advanced probes. Please consider also making the more expensive cores like the Tatsujin and Hera science containers.

Or on a science container part Either one can work. Built into the core: One less part to forget during assembly. Doesn't interfere with the clean lines of some of your probe cores. Easy to implement with edits to existing part CFG. Separate part: More flexible; can be used with your probes, stock command capsules, other mods. KSP already has the stock Experiment Storage Unit but it's bulky. Maybe make a smaller part and have it unlock a bit later in the tech tree? (Restock Plus already has an alternate science container as a 1.25 to 0.625 conical adapter that is good on a rocket or plane nose, but looks weird on a hexagon or square probe.)
