RealGecko Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) "Field tests of our new science equipment is a common practice, that gives us a lot of valuable information. However this procedure is really time consuming. That's why Kerbal Space Center signed contract with Kerbal Environmental Institute to do this boring job for us." Interview with Gene Kerman - KSC flight director. Kerbin Weekly. Get science from KSC "biomes" in one click. Warning!!! May give you unexpected science boost!!! Using [x] Science! is recommended, to keep things clear. Tired of poking around KSC measuring pressure at R&D Observatory and taking surface samples from SPH Round Tank, trying to get some science to finally unlock RE-L10 "Poodle" and start flying to space? Well, no more!!! Gather all available science experiments from KSC with a click of a button and go explore! Can be enabled in the midst of career.

I think that packing everything inside GameData is a good practice. And now I'm wondering why didn't I . I'll note this to myself. However if mod get indexed by CKAN you'll have no trouble installing it at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C04L Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) so at the start of the game, you auto get the science for the equipment you have in the tech tree at the time and auto get whenever you learn new sci-tech. this has saved me a lot of time thanks! *added to my mod permaList Edited July 9, 2016 by C04L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vardicd Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Does not seem to update a game already in progress, unless something is needed to trigger it. Or I'm a dolt and installed it wrong, but not sure there, will experiment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deimos Rast Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Gecko, we need you talk. The rate at which you're cranking out these "must have mods" ...you're spoiling us. You must be on holiday or something, no mere mortal can code this fast! Anyway, grabbing now - thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually not, if you open any of my mods source code you'll see that they're mostly primitive. It is more time consuming to crack the nutshell of KSP API, than to write the actual code. However I have plans for at least two "must have" mods, that are going to be much more ambitious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vardicd Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 @RealGecko Just a thought, but have you considered having this mod balanced by having some kind of cost associated with it? I mean, it seems like you're outsourcing the testing/gathering of KSC science to an outside.. company? so having the process cost some funds would seem to make sense, and balance it against, oh look here, all the science for free. Just a thought, curious to know what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a thought, curious to know what you think. Initially I thought that KEI would cover whole Kerbin and of course not for free. For example getting science from mountains would take let's say three days and cost you let's say 20.000 kerbin bucks. But then I decided to stop at the KSC and make it free. So this mod became just a time saver at the beginning of the career. Your vessel recovery is free at KSC, experiments are free at KSC. Why you must waste your time? Just get it!!! And all this "contract" stuff was done just for fun. We're at KSP, some craziness is always welcomed 22 minutes ago, vardicd said: outsourcing the testing/gathering of KSC science to an outside.. company Let's think that KEI is just one of subdivisions of KSC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mods I released recently are still not commited to CKAN. If you look here you'll notice that some mods like Year2200 are waiting for more than a month to be commited. The reasons are complete mystery to me. Edited July 10, 2016 by RealGecko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
