Jeebs24 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 How exactly do I make a space station? Do I need to build it on ground first and launch it into orbit?Is there is good parts add-on that I can use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
douglas0007 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 There are some good mods for space stations. One is crewtank for extra crew on the space shuttle.Another good mod is the Probodobodyne construction kit for solar panels and other things. Usually you need to launch it from the ground with tons of boosters and engines to get into orbit.Or you can use orbital construction to launch it from another orbiting spaceship,but you need to launch supplies up to build the space station so I can't recommend it. I don't have any advice on building it,but good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cby Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 My Favourite is Kosmos spacecraft design Bureau. It hasn't been updated yet, but when it is, it will be here.http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/showthread.php/17165-0-16-Kosmos-Spacecraft-Design-Bureau-VA-releasedAnd yes you need to build it on the ground first then launch it like a rocket. This is because there is no space station thing in the game yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephram Kerman Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 The orbital construction mod actually is pretty cool. The whole point of that mod is to launch several flights to bring the materials for assembly in orbit.Another way is to build the station in the VAB or SPH, put it on the launch pad or runway, then edit the persistent.sfs file to swap its location with a different ship already in orbit.
