infinite_monkey Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Does anyone use this mod together with CryoTanks? Do you use MethaLox for the F9 in that case? I'd prefer if it worked with LF... Also does it conflict with RR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use the master on github if things are not really working! (So far the only bug is the new texture) Things are looking fine for me, also, what texture?

I figured out how to land my starship I just can't get the ascent / boost back / landing down for superheavy. Currently I'm using a classic ascent with all of the default configurations for turn and angle of attack. I don't seem to have much control over the booster when I separate though so I might just need to do a more steeper angle. I also seem to loose control over super heavy once its reentering the thicker part of the atmosphere. It likes to flip a lot. At what velocity should I start my gravity turn? How steep should my gravity turn be? How much Delta V should I have for my boost back and landing? At what altitude should I separate superheavy from starship? Do you know how to land it? Would you mind please telling me how to do it? I barely have enough info in the guide! My ship keeps flipping over :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z3R0_0NL1N3 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Speaking of the first stage revamp, I may have misremembered, but were you planning to separate the Octoweb into a cluster for separate Merlins? I've always thought this would play nicer with part failure mods. But have there even been engine failures on Falcon IRL? Also, happy scrub day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first one was on the first flight of a Falcon 9, which one of the engines literally blew up on ascent, and the other failure was on the latest Starlink mission, which also had a failure during ascent.

It was actually the fourth flight of the Falcon 9 which had the engine failure, that was the first operational commercial resupply mission though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonas1997 Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Can anything be done about the SuperDracos having a ridiculous spool-up time, or is it a game limitation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall Rodan having a spool-up time.

Also, happy scrub day Ah yes, I encountered so many problems that I let it sit on the side for a bit. The Merlin 1D is pretty much done but the octaweb is still something weird to figure out (Especially with the turbo pump exhaust and the cutouts of those.

Yes, just optional. You will not have the nice plumes which was also a bottleneck for me as I care more about the looks rather than being more modular.

I use mechjeb's smart ass to keep the starships heading and roll the same and I set the pitch to 30, then I lower it 25. The lower the pitch the less lift so you can "fly it". once you are slower than 1000 m/s and at 4000 metres use the front fins and rcs to flip the starship, once it is flipped unfold the back fins and then it will be stable. Then finally land with both sets of engines. hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still lacking of some like how much fuel do I need at least to make it to the ground. Cause when I do the orbital refueling I don't exactly know when to stop cause if I don't it'll transfer all the fuell and one of the ships won't make it to the ground. So I'd be so useful to have that data. Do you know about any of these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keblinger Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Hi! i have some problem with the craft file, i can only fly the starship/gojira, can't load every craft file that has ghidora in it. Every time I tried to load the craft nothing happened, in VAB or launchpad. Already install all dependencies and reinstall tundra mod. I'm using Tundra Exploration from GitHub.

Superluminaut Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 (edited) Very cool mod. However I'm having an issue with the mk4 rear actuators. I have the latest version of the mod, game, and all dependencies installed. The actuators don't function. No movement, no aerodynamic control. Right click reveals a menu with attitude control toggles that yield no changes. However the deploy toggle, and deploy angle selector do work. What am I doing wrong? Thank you. Edited to add additional information: If I attach a control point oriented dorsally the actuators function with respect to roll and yaw, pitch however is still unresponsive.
