Large non SSTO Command Pods?

[Drelam]

Hi everyone!

I'm looking for mods that feature large command pods that can be used for larger ships and interplanetary (or someday interstellar maybe?) missions. So far, i mostly found aircraft -like cockpits but only very few that look appropriate for a larger ship or non SSTOs in general.

What kind of command pod do (or would) you guys use for large ships like that?
I've been playing KSP for years now, but i always stumble over the same problem that i can't find a appropriate command center for more time consuming missions. (no need for fully made interiors)

I usually used Near Future Spacecraft but since it hasn't been fully updated i realized that i know of no other mod that features similar command pods.
Are there any mods out there you guys may know of that i migh have missed?

Thanks in advance.

There's a Taurus HCV capsules that carries 7 Kerbals, and I have had good results from using a 2.5m-3.74m adaptor that is outfitted with space for 4 kerbals, but I can't recall which mod that's in. I think it uses the PXL/PXD labelling system. That gives you the crew capacity potential for re-entry.

I've been doing some tests and comparisons. and a not-fancy command pod might not need any fixes. The 1.05 part.cfg may well work.

I tend to use the sort of modules that come in Space Station packs to provide space for long missions, rather than just rely on the re-entry crew spaces in a heat-shielded command pod.

Keep an eye on Rocket Factory ... Some of the best large capsules I've seen...its partially 1.1 compatible... Full release hopefully soon...
