[1.12.5] CRE - Stockalike British Rocketry [2.2][02/03/2021]

[Beale]

Alright, after consuming a chocolate egg, the willpower to make the wheels fixed was finally found,

et voila:

So GitHub:

https://github.com/Tantares/CRE

ORBA
Fixed wheels
New 0.625m SRBs

[Zorg]

CRE will be getting extensive support with the upcoming update of RealPlume. Just a little preview of WIP stuff that can be accessed on the RealPlume development branch of github.

Due to the extensive use of HTP engines in CRE, I've created a dedicated HTP plume instead of reusing something similar. They are quite pale with a hint of orange red.

 

Of course Blue Streak will be getting kerolox plumes.

Solid kick stage with solid vac plume

What can I say except stunning?

Landing skids, these kind of work, but also kind of don't. If you have any experience landing feedback that would be really helpful.

We still need a third scheme for Blue Steel by the way.

I might need some ideas soon, or I'll do something silly...

Did you decide what the third scheme for Blue Steel would be? Because I really like this one and it would be a shame to lose it.

This whole mod looks amazing so far, I can't wait for an official release so I can incorporate it into my main game.

Something similar to that - maybe red instead of blue.

More tweaks and fixes,  especially to the Blue Steel landing gear (You can now land with the skids effortlessly with some effort, but it's all on the pilot rather than buggy collision).

[Beale]

I've discovered a certain flaw with this that is kind of bad, but nevertheless, Prospero.

 

[Beale]

Maybe you can spot what I had to do, maybe it's not too noticable...

[The Dressian Exploder]

Ummmmm... You had to use the same texture for the solar panels?  You're right, it's not noticeable

[Cdodders]

You had to swap some solar panels for an antenna?

It's not noticable then, good

Looks like you had to decrease the diameter of the probe?

Alas, yep, you got it! It has ended up a little squashed to fit well in KSP's chunky fairings.

Hi, just tested what you are working on. I know you probably know about these but here's what needs to be fixed till release: currently the tech tree entries are messed up, 1.875m parts come at a point when only the 0.6 parts of the mod should be usable. generalRocketry would be far more suitable for them as well as basicRocketry for the 1.25m parts and the small SRBs. The mod is amazing otherwise and I really love it. Another thing to note is that skids on symmetry are flipped from eachother, visible when you switch to the 45 degree variants. CRE has become pretty much the best mod for early career playthroughs otherwise and I am really waiting for the next complete update. Also, could we have a nose cone drone core at the start of the tech tree?

RZ.20

Hydrogen rocket engine! And a few hydrogen fuel tanks upcoming.

Q. How will Hydrogen work? Will I need CRP
A. No, but if you have CRP, that LH2 resource will be used instead. If you have installed [ Cryogenic Engines ], the functionality bundled in that will unlock additional tanks for use with Hydrogen.

(Just to put that in clear, this mod will still have no dependencies, but as life goes, the more mods the better).

[Beale]

RZ.20 and family.

RZ.20

[Beale]

GitHub

https://github.com/Tantares/CRE

Black Anvil / RZ.20 rocket engine. Available in 3 sizes, 2 of which have fairings.
For sure, one of my most favourites rocket engines I have done in a long time. LH2 magic.

Now we have to do some testing to see how well they bounce!

[amarius1]

This is starting to become one of my most favorite mods, keep it up and make it good for career! (0.5 parts before size 1 and 1.5)

Compatibility with CRP

If you have an existing mod which uses LH2, like the excellent Cryogenic engines, these will now play nice, and you can mix and match engines as you please

[Beale]

Skids are lame, they're getting deleted

Spoiler

Skids are actually really cool, but unfortunately due to the interaction of the physics system they just don't work all too well. As much as wheels are *not* fun, they are the best option for now.

[Cdodders]

Awww I like skids
