Tbh, I'm really hoping on some better planning info to see the effect if agriculture and converters While development is ongoing for new parts and features, I am not aware of any additional planning aids that are expected to be incorporated into the mod. I believe there are some external tools(and possibly a mod) that can help with this, but if you prefer integrated aids, know that RoverDude accepts Pull Requests.

protoz Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 I'm having difficulty finding how to move EnrU with a level 3 engineer, perform maintenance doesn't come up and can't move the resource between two tanks next to each other. I've exhausted all searches and I don't know whats legacy or whether this feature needs additional mods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can tell Tantares is just a stockalike parts pack. MKS doesn't really do anything special with stock parts. All of MKS's power is in the MKS parts. So there isn't really anything necessary to "support" tantares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it isn't an approved method but so you can continue playing until you figure it out you could go into the community resource config and change it to PUMP so you can transfer it like all other resources. Just to get you going because I've had to do that when I couldn't figure out the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean to add Habitation/Life Support Mode to Tantares ship parts. Tantares contains parts like orbital modules and research modules, and currently MKS cannot add Habitation/Life Support Mode to them.

Lifesupport/habitation is part of USI-LS not MKS. Secondly, I doubt @RoverDude would be adding support anytime soon, as I've never seen him interested in using Tantares. However he does take pull requests. Oh and lastly, given that the configurations are added to the parts, it could be argued that these changes should be made to the tantares mod. Either way, it can all be handled via MM configs which are pretty easy once you get the hang of it. So it is certainly something you could step up and contribute to if you wanted.

Just to get you going because I've had to do that when I couldn't figure out the problem. Ya I figured it would be an outside source or changing lines of code. I'm playing with Ground Construction so building PDUs without a means to transfer fuel is pretty useless. So I just include a nuclear fuel plant in a Eve ocean sifter which requires a lot of power.

Tokamak Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 I'm sure that I'm overlooking an obvious answer, but hunting around in the wiki has not helped me. So sorry if this is a silly question: I know that specialties like farmer or miner give various bonuses to activities in MKS. What do I actually do to train my kerbals in those specialties?

I've recently taken to Hyperedit to deal with issues like this (ditto Vessel Mover for rover physics hijinks) and positioned a photo of my primary school head teacher above my monitor to keep me honest. 10 hours ago, Tokamak said: I'm sure that I'm overlooking an obvious answer, but hunting around in the wiki has not helped me.

You hire them as separate individuals with those specialities from the astro complex - they are much cheaper than pil/sci/eng. Probably not your question but you can also train up their *s using the Akademy (a farmer that's been on a Jool 5 can train up other farmers).

I thought that was just a high level better way to train them, not the main mechanism. Derp. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overkill13 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 (edited) @Tokamak Also keep in mind that Scientists and Engineers can perform all the duties of their sub-classes. They cost more to hire, sure, but if you have a spare one, put them to work. Biologist, Farmer and Medic are sub-classes of Scientist while Miner, Geologist, Mechanic and Technician are sub-classes of Engineer. Pilots can also act as Quartermasters and have the Scout's extended habitation time. Edited May 7, 2020 by overkill13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Targus Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 May I ask for a diagram how to obtain colony supplies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyPunch Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 (edited) Just doing some tests on an industrial complex base I plan on deploying to Minmus that has tundra refineries and tundra assemblers doing the primary work with 3.75 ISRUs and Ranger workshops for boosting purposes. I was able to get everything balanced out well and am now trying to figure out how to crew the vessel for additional bonuses. It would seems that I am running into two unexpected behaviours: It seems that the bonus jumps when I add the first engineer or technician, but every additional one I add does nothing. In reading through many posts and the wiki, I could not find where it explicitly stated that it should stack in some way, but in looking at the formulas that have been posted in the past, it looks like they should. The other issue, is that the wiki specifically says that the scientist role "Gives bonus to Workshop efficiency module", but when I added a scientist to the vessel (and even move him to the workshop), no bonus was given. It seemed a bit odd to me that a scientist would give a bonus in the workshop, and I know the wiki is old, but I don't know if this changed or is broken or what. Does anyone have any thoughts on these issues? Thanks in advance! UPDATE: So I found in the wiki on this page that the specialist bonus uses the "lvl of most skilled relevant specialist on board"... I did not catch that detail because later in that section it says "As long as the specialists are on the same vessel, they will affect the load of ALL the related processors/extractors" which makes it sound plural to me. So it seems mystery #1 is solved, but the jury is still out on the scientist one.
