[1.9.x] K2 Command Pod: Two Kerbal stock-alike pod

[fourfa]

Any interest in adding emissives to the windows?  I vaguely recall that might not be in LGG's usual bag of tricks.

[A Soviet Tank]

I can't play without this mod anymore! I mean, I use this pod for almost every mission.

 

[fourfa]

Latest version of this mod - the pod itself shows up in the grid of fuel tanks, not the command pods.  I'm sure that's a simple fix and I can probably even hash it out myself, but wanted to mention it

No other mods?

I'll take a look

The .cfg file specifies category = Pods so something is wrong on your end? Are you using filter extensions (if so, bring it up in their thread)?

[fourfa]

I do have other mods, but not filter extensions.  I'll investigate.  Thanks

Looks ok over here, I just downloaded from Spacedock, it showed up in pods properly.

Are you running the stock tech tree or something else?

[fourfa]

Community Tech Tree.  Its placement in the tech tree is fine, just shows up strangely in the parts grids in the VAB/SPH build editor.  I'll start the mod elimination game to see what's interfering.

[Murdabenne]

is 1.1.8.2 backward compatible for ksp 1.2.2.1622, or do I need to stick with 1.1.8.1?

The only thing changed was the K2.version file so it is backwards compatible but there's no need to update.

This mod has a pretty model, but seems to have a rather bad texture. 

Does anyone else think we need a community call to retexture it.

Feel free to do it yourself, I do take PRs and other contributions

I was thinking of doing it once the current next generation parts in the preview mod are in stock.

Since I want to simply texture to the stock texture atlas, and all, it would be a pain if they all changed on me.

KSP-AVC says this is compiled against 1.2. Is that expected behavior? Version 1.1.8.2 downloaded with CKAN.

I'll keep it on the list of considerations if I go into a particular aspect of modding.   My idea for doing it was to use the stock textures, but those are changing very soon according to Squad's notes and their part overhaul preview.

It's fine, check the .version file. it should say that the max version is 1.3.99:

	"KSP_VERSION_MAX":
	{
		"MAJOR":1,
		"MINOR":3,
		"PATCH":99
	}

I did update the ksp-avc site, it was out-of-date

I want to try to add a emissive layer to the capsule so it has lights.  I need all the parts like the model, collision mesh, etc to do this, but I'm not seeing these on the source page on github. Do you have these somewhere where I can get them?

Nope.  You can try contacting the original author

@linuxgurugamer Can you please make this pod 1.875 m, as 1.25 m doesn't make sense for a 2-kerbal pod in which the kerbals are sitting side-by-side, as one kerbal fits in that orientation in the mk1 pod,so this needs to be wider.

Thanks, Bottle Rocketeer 500

No.  

Without helmets, they would fit.

There is at least one other 1.25m pod which also has 2 kerbals.

If you don't like it,either don't use it or edit the config to increase the size by 50%.  You can use the following to do it, Just make sure you have ModuleManager installed:

Copy the following into a file called "K21875.cfg"  anywhere inside the GameData directory:

@PART[K2Pod]
{
	%rescaleFactor = 1.5
}

 

[MWSin]

A suggestion: Add a cfg that detects some of the more common tech tree rebalance mods and adjusts accordingly. For my own use with SETI Unmanned Before Manned, I've moved it to advFlightControl to keep it between the Mk1 and Mk1-2.

[linuxgurugamer]

Did you do that in a MM patch or a direct edit?

If a MM patch, could you send it to me please?

FYI, in the next release of this, there will be a patch installable via PatchManager to install this patch.
