Yellowburn10 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Did I hear right? There's now a stock version of Hyperedit?? Loving EVERYTHING about 1.2 right now! It almost makes up for the new rocket designs not making it in. Almost. But still loving it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superfluous J Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 @Laguna I'm on mobile and can't really tell what those images are showering... Could you (or anyone) describe the new feature a little? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw @ShadowZone do this by placing a 4-way and 1-way nearby and then translating the 1-way to the middle of the 4-way with the gizmos. It looked OK previously, and I'm curious whether it still does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairings now have more nodes available above the upper one, placing parts on them causes a supporting rack to appear connecting the placed part to the base. Best is that multiple nodes can be used simultaneously, which is fantastic for satellite "buses" and I'm sure people will find other applications for it, too.

And He also frowned! Edit 2: The Gee Force Required to Kill An EVA Kerbal (including in command seats) is 9 Gees, but they are fine in pods with any gee force apparently.

That rack also probably means you can now use them as interstage for transporting stuff. E.g. an interplanetary ship storing it's landers inside, or for dropping additional tanks after using them up. Similar to a nuclear mars mission concept, where the craft can drop the middle tank: Should be very usefull thanks to the procedural size.

AlphaMensae Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Yes, @RoverDude popped up in Mator's stream, and said they were interstages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Cop Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 (edited) ...but does it take in satellite signals? Or is it just a prop? Either way, it makes Kerbin seem like less of a wasteland, especially if there are several of these on the planet.

RocketSquid Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 There we go, nice new stream full of hype coal. I for one, am so UTTERLY HYPED that I am delaying my Duna mission just to get those antennae. Also, this update will probably be less jarring then 1.1 since I have AVC this time around. No more spreadsheets for this guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw, am I understanding correctly that I could make a hollow interstage fairing (with the 2 'rails'), put a docking port inside (onto the fairing base) and store ships there? 11 minutes ago, Alshain said: On the base? No, we're talkingabout points in the air between beginning and end of the interstage fairing.^^ @Laguna made some nice pics Spoiler Although I might be wrong and they are only there during construction, not for stuff you put in there?
