benjee10 Posted September 5, 2019 Author Share Posted September 5, 2019 Hi all, If you haven't seen my latest update in the HabTech2 thread, you should give it a read as it explains my intentions going forward. TLDR: I'm planning on soft-retiring from KSP modding for a lot of reasons, but before I do that I want to bring everything up to scratch over the next couple of months. What that means for reDIRECT: - General polish of art assets & cfgs - Addition of emissives and a few other bits and pieces for engines - Addition of some long-needed texture variants - ICPS/DCSS 2.5m variant - SLS exploration upper stage - Orion IVA That is all I have planned. The next update will be the last for this mod. Unfortunately this means RS-68/Delta IV stuff will fall my the wayside. I simply don't have the time or energy to embark on a project like that. Hope you all understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like @CobaltWolf will have to do Delta IV after all. Jokes aside, could we get the textures converted to DDS in the last release, as a part of general polish? That would really help loading times (useful if loaded alongside BDB). Also, if you want some help with IVAs, you can send me a PM. I have a lot of experience working with @Nertea's props. Another thing I wanted to ask is if it would be possible to include 1, 1.5 and 2.5 segment RSRM variants, and a skirt variant for inline mounting, if it's not too much trouble (if the skirt variant is too much trouble/wouldn't fit on the texture sheet, just the 1.5 and 2.5 segment variants would suffice). There are several rocket proposals that could be made by combining those with BDB parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked this over in the SOCK thread, I don't remember the response I recieved but what I did find out by chance earlier today was that Nertea's cryogenic engines mod includes a patch that makes the Restock Vector (and several other stock engines) burn LH2/OX.

Elro2k Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 (edited) Is it possible to change the tanks and engines to store/use liquid fuel and oxidizer instead of oxygen and hydrogen? I'm trying to keep my game as stock alike as possible and adding the new elements from the community resource pack just seems to complicate things. It would also make sense to add since the shuttle orbiter mod uses liquid fuel and oxidizer. Apologies if this question has already been answered.

With Shuttle Orbiter Mod do you mean Benjees Shuttle Orbiter Construction Kit? It uses oxygen and hydrogen. You can change to LFO ingame with B9 Part Switch.

However I can't seem to find any way to change the fuel types. There are options to change the colors of the tanks (Which is a feature of b9) but I cant find any option to change the fuel types. Maybe I'm just not looking in the right place? Edited November 2, 2019 by Elro2k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, reDIRECT and the Shuttle are balanced around using LH2 - if you use LFO instead (which is much denser) you will either end up with a craft that’s much too heavy to liftoff or has way too much delta-V than necessary. Already the balance with LH2 is much too high for a stock scale system. With LFO tanks you could probably get a shuttle out to Duna or something crazy. Given the purpose of these mods is to recreate real spacecraft with a slightly more realistic edge than is common in KSP I’m not really interested in supporting something which messes with the balance so much. I’m sure it’d be pretty easy to add a custom patch to switch the fuel types but I’d really recommend playing with LH2. It really won’t affect the rest of your gameplay much at all.

benjee10 Posted February 5, 2020 Author Share Posted February 5, 2020 Minor update on SpaceDock and GitHub, just fixing a few normal issues that had arisen with 1.8+ and re-orienting the SRB nosecones so that mirror symmetry now works correctly. Craft files have been removed until they can be rebuilt as the reorientation will affect existing craft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
