Kubble Space Telescope (mods used


Recommended Posts

This is my Kubble Space Telescope (KST for short). The mods used Im quite sure are the NovaPunch Remix pack and Silisko\'s Probodobody DIY Satellite Kit. I would recommend adding the Multiversal Mechatronics - Fixed Camera mod, placing a camera on the lens of the KST. And for those that like really mechanical things the Kosmos Space Station Parts Pack V4 for its animated solar panels. All linked below.

There are 2 versions of the KST attached below, one is just the KST Satellite (Kubble Space Telescope) and the other is the KST Satellite with a launch rocket assembly (KST).

I\'ve launched the KST into orbit around Kerbal. I\'ve also added the camera mod but in a special way as the camera mod does not allow zooming in (i suspect it will be added some day when more time is available for the creator of the mod).

I\'ve added the following code to the part.cfg of the Probekit_Telescope.



MODULE
{
name = MuMechModuleHullCamera
cameraName = Hull
cameraForward = 0, 1, 0
cameraUp = 0, 1, 0
cameraPosition = 0, 0.37, 0
cameraFoV = 5
}

MODULE
{
name = MuMechModuleHullCamera
cameraName = Hull
cameraForward = 0, 1, 0
cameraUp = 0, 1, 0
cameraPosition = 0, 0.37, 0
cameraFoV = 10
}

MODULE
{
name = MuMechModuleHullCamera
cameraName = Hull
cameraForward = 0, 1, 0
cameraUp = 0, 1, 0
cameraPosition = 0, 0.37, 0
cameraFoV = 25
}

As you can see i added not one but three camera\'s, each with a different zoomfactor. The CameraFoV in the cfg determines how much zoom is used. (5, 10 and 25). All three are at exactly the same spot. The enlarged view is wonderful, however the object must be within 2,5 km. When looking directly at Kerbin from orbit no significant enlargement is visible.

How awsome the camera mod truely is can be seen in the images in the spoiler.

The object isn\'t realy visible anymore at 188 m.
