@RoverDude I just noticed that the GC workshop in the MKS Tundra Assembly Plant is only a Ground Workshop, which means that you cannot use it to assemble kit containers unless you are landed and on the ground. It does not work as a workshop as part of an orbital station. Is that on purpose/by design? I always considered the Tundra parts as intended for both, orbital structures and ground structures. So it would be fitting, in my opinion, if the Tundra Assembly Plant could be an orbital and a ground workshop. If it were a Duna-part, I would understand that it is limited to the ground workshop function.

If you would like to change it, I just tested it and you only need to change this in the Tundra_AssemblyPlant.cfg:

Spoiler

    MODULE
    {
        name = GroundWorkshop
        Efficiency = 3
    }   

to this:

Spoiler


    MODULE
    {
    name = SingleVesselConstructionWorkshop
    workshopType = ORBITAL
    }    
    MODULE
    {
        name = GroundWorkshop
        Efficiency = 3
    }   

Unfortunately, you see "Workshop Window" twice. But I can live with it.

I understand if you're against that change. This might just be my personal observation and flavor. So, just a thought.

It doesn't just show up in the PAW twice, the buttons actually open different instances of the workshop UI which can be confusing since one of them will work and the other won't, depending on the vessel's situation. There isn't really a visual cue either as to which workshop window is the "right" one. This isn't really an MKS issue. More of a GC issue. @allista might have some thoughts though on how to allow a single part to serve both roles.

No, there isn't a visual cue. But Since I added the orbital workhop before the ground workshop, I know that the first one is orbital and the lower button is the ground one. That order doesn't magically change.

By the way, I forgot to mention that the efficiency multiplier, which works for the ground workshop, doesn't work for the orbital workshop. I tried it at first, but removed the line from the code since it had no functionality. Which is why I didn't add it in my example. Not really a dealbreaker though.

@RoverDude Personally, I'd prefer my two buttons with the same label over one button, where only one works at the ground. That was more confusing for me - finding out that the workshop doesn't work in orbital position after having build and assembled my space station. But I understand your point of view. Two buttons with the same label and different functions isn't really intuitive. :/

Are the dimensions for the Kontainers available online? I'm curious if a 2.5m Kontainer fits inside a Mk3 Cargo Bay CRG-50 and if so how much margin there is.

Edit: I don't really need exact measurements, just something relative, like is it as long as X200-32 or a Mk3 Fuel Fuselage?

Anyone have a recommendation for a somewhat current youtube series covering this mod in parts or whole?  Most of what I'm finding is 5ish years old and I'm not certain how out of date that information is.  In particular I'd love to see a series that covers everything necessary to get a self-sustaining base up to building your own off-world crafts.

I would look through @RoverDude's twitch history.

How do you mine asteroids? I also have RoverDude's Asteroid Recycling Technologies mod installed.

This is what I see when returning to one of many of my 'roids in some weird Kerbin orbits. (I capture into SOI and leave alone. Kerbin looks like some weird atom.)

Above is what I see loading my save and going to this ship. Those jaws (highlighted part) are equivalent to the Adv. Grabbing Unit with some additional functionality and part of A.R.T.

The info for this particular asteroid in the save file is as follows:

I've placed a Surface Scanning Module on crafts and they do not see anything in the 'roids. I was thinking about switching parts out.... Narrow band scanner... that also say "planets and moons" in the text. :(

Any ideas? Workarounds? @RoverDude, bug?

Thanks.

I enjoyed this series - a little old now so he starts building on Minmus painstakingly with KAS one module at a time, but by halfway through he's using Ground Construction. It does pre-date orbital Global Construction & kit assembly, but all the key USI parts are there. He works towards a full-scope base on Duna. The style is entertaining and he, shall we say, learns a lot from his mistakes!

I don't use it

I don’t think I can you much then as I don’t know anything about modding.. the issue with Restock was that it replaced the original drill texture, which is used by the MKS big drills. If you have any mod that modifies this texture, the part will not load at all.

HI @ISzox. I had the same issue. The reason was the ReStock Mod. After I whitelisted Squad/Parts/Resources/RadialDrill/ the MKS big drills showed up. The link below detalis how to do it.

https://github.com/PorktoberRevolution/ReStocked/wiki/Asset-Blacklist-and-Whitelist

Btw, @RoverDude thank you a lot for this great mod!

Can you provide your cfg file? I'm a noob about programming.

Does anybody now if the bigger inline reaction wheel has been removed from the mod. I'm seeing just the one with a ring. (I'm using reestock mod)

MKS doesn't add a reaction wheel but FTT does.  The 5m was a part mashup so no idea if Restock is affecting it.... *grumbles about how mods should do no harm...*

I just realized it. After looking my ksp log, i've seen that i lot of the mks constelation mod's parts aren't beeing compiled because restock prevent the loading of stock textures. I'm still looking for a easier fix than whitelisting all the parts.

Ask the Restock devs not to screw with other mods? ;)  Or alternatively, I happily take pull requests if they want to do the whitelisting for my mods.

I already did do so a few weeks ago so you should be good to go.

No worries, always happy to help with interoperability between mods.

Pedantic semantics but it only affects vanilla assets and not modded assets. At least it's not affecting parts that are created by mods... catch all solutions are a fallacy but they can be good with a little bit of elbow grease work. :D

If you come across any more issues between the mods please let me (us... ReStock team) know and we can hash out PRs if necessary.
