Trying to replicate the Sapce X Mars mission

[etheoma]

Well I have solved every problem but the landing gear for the launcher rocket... and also getting back on another launch sites but being able to lands without landing on my engines which while the engines are solid enough ingame to take the weight that isn't exactly true to form.



See lack of landing gear unfortunately I didn't have auto recording enabled to show you how lucky I was that the craft didn't tip over. Is there a mod for stronger and larger landing gear, I'm using 1.1.3 with RO. Simply scaling up the landing gear is not enough.

Also the **** ton of engines is making my game super slow... I'm usually running at like 60 - 120 fps and I'm getting 8 FPS... and it's not just when the engines are on there is some kind of bug which makes engines take up a ridiculous amount of CPU resources I have had 1000 part craft be less performance intensive... And this stage only has like 100 parts if that.

Here is the hole craft if anyone was interested.

Sorry for not answering your question, but I'd love to see this fly! I tried to built it too but my CPU cannot handle the engines as well. Frame rate goes to unplayable before the game crashes... Anyway, interesting project to discuss
