Riverey Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Looks very nice! The only suggestion is to maybe add a RPM screens to the IVA since right now there are no good rover cockpit with that =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornholio Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 This looks great. I'm interested as to what the KJR problems are. Assuming those get figured out, I'll definitely be checking this out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirrliv Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Rather nice looking mod. Looks very much of Angel-125's "Buffalo" rover system. Overall, I congratulate you on the looks of this mod, particularly the level of detail you've put into your parts, especially the IVA's. Everything looks very sharp. Well done, sir. I look forward to giving it a test run. Speaking of Angel's "Buffalo", he's been wrestling for some time with how to do flexible connections for his mod with only limited success. Might I humbly suggest that you two perhaps get together and exchange information? Likewise, is there any possibility of a future development of this rover parts pack someday including an adapter section to make Feline rover parts compatible with Buffalo rover parts?

I requested to put parts with the hitch PartModule on the ignore list of KJR. This will solve the problem. 3 hours ago, sirrliv said: Rather nice looking mod.

The formfactor of the Lynx is quite similar to the one of the Buffalo, so an adapter might be possible. I will contact Angel-125 and ask if he is interested in the flexible joints.

Rafael acevedo Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Nils Jeb and bob want you to know that they really appreciate the arrival of the ice Kream rover, as they have been without their fabulous desert for a long time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceMouse Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Ooooooooo. Planetary Base was a permanent mod and now this might have to be too. Any possibility of either/or a greenhouse or perhaps a popout living space? This looks very RV like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slightly off-topic, how does KJR compare to the Auto-strut and Rigid setting in regards to strength? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

podge1940 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I'm loving this little rover, the cargo parts are great, but I'm having a small problem with the hitch and bellow. I've followed the pics as to how to put them together but the hitch only goes up and down and I cant get the bellows to work at all! I think I must be doing something wrong I just can't see what. Any help would be fantastic. I'm not using KJR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nils277 Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) @podge1940 you have to unlock the parts either in the VAB/SPH or in flight via the right click menu. (Or one of the keys if you set the action in the editor) I let the hitch and joint stay rigid at start to keep rockets stable at launch. An unlocked joint would totally destroy them. The slight bending of the hitch you see is 'stock' and the result of the small attachment nodes. Edited January 23, 2017 by Nils277 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One after another Support for KIS/KAS, Life Support and RPM have a higher priority for now. I have not yet decided if there will be means to create a base...but i'm more on the no side at the moment. There will be thrusters though you can attach to the side of the rover for landing assistance. Edited January 23, 2017 by Nils277 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it does - And Nils has been known to support the following: TAC Life Support, USI-LS, Snacks! Continued, Kerbalism, Ioncross, ECLSS, IFI-Life Support. So it may take him some time to get everything written up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
