H.O.M.E. Revived

[Jhorriga]

Hello all. As most of us know, bobcat has been absent in the modding world for some time now. I have been communicating with him on youtube and I am helping him make a comeback. Meanwhile, I'd like to continue the wonderful mod(s), H.O.M.E. 1, 2, and 3.

HOWEVER, I have no knowledge of modding so I will be enlisting modders to help me. The version in the BobCat Ind. thread works for current KSP, but the nodes are screwed up(parts can only be placed upside down), The landing legs intergrated into some of the parts do not work, the parachutes are screwed up, and there is no window transparency. What we will need to do is fix all this. If you would like to help, simply tell me. I will make a github page once we have fixed everything.

The links for H.O.M.E. 3 and legacy pack are located in this thread:

Woah, nostalgia like crazy. I'd love to help. I'll see what I can do

 

EDIT: But, I'm gonna need to see some proof that he actually gave you the goahead. Last I checked, his mods are All Rights Reserved, and licenses matter.

The reason you're having trouble placing parts is because the attach nodes point in the wrong direction (previously, attach node orientation was not enforced and now it is)

Here is an example of incorrect node configuration:

node_stack_top = 0, 0.5, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0
node_stack_bottom = 0,-0.5, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0

First three comma separated digits are node location. Second three are orientation. In the example above, both attach nodes are pointing UP; the bottom node should be pointing DOWN, as seen below.

node_stack_top = 0, 0.5, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0
node_stack_bottom = 0,-0.5, 0, 0, -1, 0, 0

Alright. Thanks. On home 3, some nodes downright won't work. For example, only 2 nodes work on the hub. Could you fix the nodes for me?

Alright. Here's the node for the pod parachute:

 

TechRequired = specializedControl
entryCost = 7600
cost = 3800
category = Utility
subcategory = 0
title = HOME Mk3 Command Pod Parachute
manufacturer = BobCat ind
description = Parachute for the HOME OS command pod.
// attachment rules: stack, srfAttach, allowStack, allowSrfAttach, allowCollision
attachRules = 1,0,1,1,0

 

What should I fix?

[Jhorriga]

Alright. I fixed the node issue. Gotta turn on non strict alignment checks in cheats. Next up, Parachutes and landing legs

That's not    fixing it.

[Jhorriga]

I'm working on it. It'll do for now.
