How to make things using OSE and EPL

[nascarlaser1]

Hi guys!

I know I am double posting, but I posted this question a few weeks ago but it was never replied too . I don't want to break any rules, so if this is in violation of one I will lock I ASAP.

I have both OSE workshop and extra planetary launch pads installed. I've built a massive rover with all kinds of drills and tanks and converters, but I can't figure out how to turn the metal ore I dig up, into metal, rocket parts, etc.. I have ore, dirt and metal ore, but I'm not sure what I need to make the final products for ships (EPL) and parts (OSE).

 

Thanks!

For EL you need a Smelter to convert MetalOre into Metal and a Construction Workshop to convert Metal into RocketParts. The Construction Workshop needs to be crewed (I think with Engineers) and stupidity of the Kerbals has an actual effect on the production rate. To build/spawn new vessels you need a Launchpad (or survey-stakes with a survey-staiton for surface based operations). The EL build menu should pop up automatically otherwise you can open it in the right-click menu. In the Menu select a craft-file and start building. The building process depends on the number and stupidity of your kerbals as well as the ProductivityFactor of the part the Kerbals are located in (Workshop has the highest ProductivityFactor afaik).

For OSE you need the Material Extractor to convert Ore to MaterialKits and Dirt to RareMetals and ExoticMinerals. The 3D-Printing Lab needs to be crewed with 2 Kerbals and can produce smaller parts as KIS item from MaterialKits and sometimes RareMetals and/or ExoticMinerals.

I hope this helps.
