[1.4.x-1.8.x] Airplane Plus - R26.4 (Fixed issues/Github is up to date) (Dec 21, 2019)

[blackheart612]

@DarkOwl57 Just get a 1.1.3 version of FS and MM and the mod shall work. The problem is, the loading would stop at the Payloads. Just change the configs to categorize them under utility or delete their configs if you don't need them. Don't delete their folders as I think they are being referenced by Structural Parts' textures.

@Hellbrand It's hard for me to work with parts not made by me. I can help if people need some texturing done or probably something that falls within my skillset though.

@vardicd Unity imports are wonky and I knew that lately. I won't be surprised if it's actually the problem. But the next patch will guarantee a fix and it won't be APP causing re orientations anymore. I assure you that.

@OrbitalBuzzsaw Isn't the half of WC B equivalent of WC D or E stacked together? I think you can attach things to both of them? Or I just don't understand things here?

@Bill the Kerbal Props engines are automatically feathered to their lowest at stationary. Still capable of dragging the plane, but not while braking mostly. It's an intended feature because it's the closest way to model Engine RPM with stock modules. Otherwise, the planes will shoot off the runway the moment it starts.

Maybe, but it'd be a really useful piece for tails. Pleeeeeeze make it

KerbinSide should work fine with 1.2.2 as long as you have the 1.2.2 version of Kerbal Konstructs, and BDA is being kept by LinuxGuruGamer and works fine with 1.2.2(BDArmoryContinued). Even if all of your BDA expansions are 1.1.3 they'll works fine with BDAContinued. I wholeheartedly suggest you update to 1.2.2; it crashes practically none and it runs a little bit better in my experience. 

The last time I checked KerbinSide (About a month ago when I downloaded it) The thing said "Because Kerbal Konstructs is not compatible with 1.2, we have not updated yet." or something like that

FS? I'm not really a modder so I'mma need some help XD

EEK! I no do config changing; I'd break the whole system on accident 

[Hellbrand]

well perhaps making them look a tad more stock-alike texture wise  would be appreciated   if  possible. and maybe find out how to get them to show up in game as  They dont seem to be doing that either despite having all the configs and what not.

 

As just the wings control surfaces. would be decent additions themselves.

Hello, I was wondering if we could get some kind of parts from a MiG-17. Like the diverted air intake.

Or the nice long and tapered engine(I don't know how to explain it. It could start at 1.25 and thin down.)

Here's even some reference orthographics.

Stryker's aerospace has those parts.

Wha? I'll have to look that up. Either way it's good to have multiple people's iterations of things. I love @blackheart612's VERY stockalike art-style, so if he made it i'd use that instead.

Last I check or I should say try to download it it popped up with file not found. I don't know if it's been fixed. But it is a nice mod. For sure recommend it.

Also NESD had a teaser of a nice stockalike Mig intake in development in the Open Cockpit thread.

[blackheart612]

@OrbitalBuzzsaw It's still possible, it's not on the top priorities list though.

@DarkOwl57 Do you need the cargo bays? They're mostly doors. I can try make you a patch, when I can, if you don't need the doors though, you can delete the configs of the folders around the folder Payload. FS is firespitter by the way.

@Hellbrand Are they a ton of parts? PM me regarding it so I can try help. APP will be my priority though.

@VenomousRequiem I have it planned. I want to do it so expect it in the future (air intake)

Cargo bays I really don't need that much; It's' just the engines that I need a lot of. Since the story I'm writing is going to be in WW2-ish, the propeller engines would really add to that whole aesthetic feel. OOOOHHHHH... Now I feel dumb...

@Bill the Kerbal Can you specify this prop? There are a lot of props and if it's not the stationary thrust that's the problem, it must be a specific prop. This is the first time I've heard of this. Do note that all props bleed speed at lower altitudes and lower speeds than turbine engines, if ever you're referring to that.

I am referring to every prop. they all have their max thrust at Mach 0.1

That's approximately stationary thrust. That's intended. If you're at Mach 0.1, you don't have propulsive efficiency. Also a model for low RPM, it throttles up as you take off. At Mach 0.1, your wings have basically no drag, too. It means at Mach 0.1, you're landed. It goes up steeply as you gain speed on take off. So that you can't take off instantly.

some parts are upside down

can you make it so that the parts that are upside down are right side up, coz it being upside down loves up attachment

[blackheart612]

@7h3_1337_p3r50n Can you specify the parts you are talking about?

all of the helicopter rotors and the control rotor su

make sure that the thrust direction does not change

still, awesome mod

[blackheart612]

@7h3_1337_p3r50n You mean thrust reversal?  The controls rotors do that as a default, they use both directions. But on the other hand, the main rotors, although it is ridiculous that you can reverse the thrust, it is also possible by tilting the blades. That's how ascent is controlled, after all...

I saw that there are fixes for some cockpit(s) with FAR due to be released. How far off is the next update? I would love to be able to use the mod, but can't if it doesn't play nice with FAR. If you still don't want to push a full update maybe just a temporary interim release on Dropbox or Gdrive that way only people affected by the issue will have to redownload this. Thanks!

@blackheart612 I've just noticed that the elevons of this mod don't follow the angle snap rules and deploy controls of the stock elevons. By the latter I mena that when I mannually deploy them using the tooltip, mirrored elevons don't deply to the same direction, but they go oposite ways, rolling my plane instead of acting as flaps

Edit: I also noticed that the drone cargo nose doesn't apply the same rules as the stock cargo bay on parts drag, I was doing a reentry and all parts inside were producing drag, some of them were destroyed by the heat as well

the part is upside down, meaning that it propels down

[blackheart612]

@Svm420 Will be slower than usual, might be a few more days. I had to take care of things in real life.

@EstebanLB Thanks, I'll be taking a look at it.  

@7h3_1337_p3r50n Just the thrust transform is upside down? Or the whole part is upside down? This is the first time I've heard of this. So I don't know how to fix it. Nobody seems to have the same issue as you and I have no idea how to replicate it.

[blackheart612]

Dev update at last. It's been a while since I got to work but I've finished the last part I want to have for the next update. I'll be tending configs to fix everything I remember and will soon have a release ready version.

I think you need to make windows more transparent

It's for 2,5 size or mk1 size?

This part's window or other parts? It's for 2.5m size.

windows is so dark, and i think you need to do mk1 sized mi-8 cockpit because it's not very giant helicopter
