Eskandare Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 (edited) Is it compatible with other Kopernicus mods like Outer Planets Mod? It doesn't change the default system right? I'd love a random 'Verse' cluster of stars to explore. On the realism note, I think a .25 to 1 Ly is reasonable for KSP, it would make good use of the Alcubierre Drive mods available (and yes you can time-warp warp-drives, shhhhhhh...) Edit: Actually, on the realism note for stock KSP should be 0.166 Ly to 1 Ly as the Kerbol system is 1/6th the size of ours and thus distances should be 1/6th, thus still adding the challenges of KSP but not the long boring of reality, Edited December 27, 2016 by Eskandare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just go into the config files an replace "referenceBody = Sun" with "referenceBody = Kerbol" then just go into the 'Galaxy.cfg" file for TBG and increase the sun's SOI a bit. That should do the trick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remco Aarden Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 guys i have this weird problem, the .exe file doesnt create a config file in the mod folder. i think i have the rest installed correctly, extracted the tbg mod into the gamedate folder of ksp. then launched the .exe file, then said yes (y) to planets, gave all the stars the value 10, and then pressed spacebar to close the program. for some reason it doesnt create the config file named 'galaxy', at first i thought it was just me being naive and stuff, so i launched ksp to see if it worked anyhow, but nope, no galaxy, just the stock solar system. now i have gone through the program ~10 times, every time pressing a different button to exit (in case i accidentally terminated the program) or different input for all the values, but nothing changes. i'm a real noob with this, i don't even know where to find the logs so you guys can help me. i turned notifications for this thread on so please reply asap because this is driving me mad.

And that they may be the star of the future 0.3 or 0.4 releases? Dude, wormholes would be seriously awesome! You and @User.txt might look into the Asimovian interpretation of wormholes: a huge network of wormholes that spans the galaxy, and there are some systems that randomly are "wormhole junctions" that have more than one wormhole per system. And the wormholes are of differing size. Big wormholes fit large ships, but only last for a few thousand years. Small wormholes fit smaller ships, but can last for milions. Dying wormholes spit out small baby wormholes that are very unstable and may only last from a few days to a year or two. Wormhole mouths have varying geometry, ranging from circular (most common) to square (slightly less common) to octagonal (slightly less common) to triangular (very rare) to something that looks like a very uneven star (even rarer). The catch on Asimovian wormholes is that you have to be very precise as to where you go through. You must go through the exact center, or else risk your ship being torn apart by the forces holding the wormholes up. So you could make it have a circle that the ship has to be in or what ever is outside of it explodes. Like the Alcubierre Warp drive shield. But with varying sizes. 18 hours ago, daniel l. said: Maybe... I dunno. TBG is not a realism oriented mod. My main intentions are to produce a gameplay oriented universe. Too much realism is boring. For example, Engine trails in a vacuum? Those don't really exist. KSP just puts them there for fun. yeah I agree. You should try to make the wormholes really pretty! Imagine the screenshots! Man I love this mod! Its super awesome already! Keep up the stunning work! @Remco Aarden sorry I can't help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JadeOfMaar Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 @Remco Aarden By chance do you have an antivirus that has a sandbox feature? It may be preventing the EXE from writing to the hard drive. Also, if possible, try Run as Administrator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remco Aarden Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 (edited) @JadeOfMaar i'll look into that, thank you for now, will post an update if things work/ don't work Update: so i managed to get the .exe working through administartion mode, but now the mod itself won't work?!

Not quite true. You see, if the rockets cumbustion was always perfect, that would be sorta true. but as it is in a vacuum, there are tons of glowing hot particles that come out the nozzle, much like RealPlume shows it. So you do actually see something that looks like flames, but isn't really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is really pretty intriguing. I took a quick look at your code up on the pastebin and it seems like it'd be pretty straight forward to make a python script that would do the same thing (minus the gui). I might take a stab at it if I get some time in the coming week. Then you could have a headless way to generate things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanth Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Did a quick search of the thread for "command center" related bugs and didn't see anything, so I'm posting. Sorry if this is a bug duplicate. When I start the game up with the galaxy.cfg provided, I don't see the command center at all. I can go into the tracking station, space plane hanger, etc fine. Just no initial view of the command center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mycroft Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Guys I found an incompatibility. This may be obvious to KSP veterans, but not to noobs. TBG and GPP argue over the stock solar system. Only Kerbin's replacement remains in the stock system! @JadeOfMaar @daniel l. You will probably want to mention that in the mod page, especially daniel l. Thanks guys!
