XM1 Rocket

AKA, the Destination Moon rocket from Tin Tin.

The legs and the legs + rocket are finished! You can download them now.

Progress so far:

---

Version 1.1 (updated 7-23-2011)

Great for Tin-Tin fans.

Destination Kerban.

STS-a Fuel Tank

Currently does not store fuel. When fuel tank linking is added, it will.

The STS-a. A Space Shuttle type fuel tank. Great for replicas, or just things with orange tanks.

MK-83 Explosive Device

Works as planned! I should probably make a fancier texture though.

The MK-83 Explosive Device. Blow stuff up! For best results, attach to a a jettison-able piece, or a radial decoupler.

oh looks really nice to bad it doesnt store fuel

The way the game works right now wouldn't allow it to move fuel properly, unless you attached the rocket to the bottom. I'll look into having bottom-mounted fuel tanks I suppose.

[feldopropane]

nice

already loving the community of this game!

could you not define an attachment node with an unusually abnormal offset. would probably make mounting the tank easier aswell

I'm not quite sure what you mean, but the tank currently mounts just like an SRB, without the stacking. You can mount it to the side of any object (I think, maybe not liquid rockets) and also to radial decouplers.

i mean as in add one of the connecting spheres somewhere below the model file and off to the left where the engine would go. The sphere would end up being nowhere near the model file but would allow a liquid rocket to take fuel from the tank.

This is a very interesting idea, I would think it would work but can you place two bottom nodes?

[6677]

if you can with the tri coupler i think you can with this aswell

It would be kind of a hacky way to do it, but it would work. The best option is fuel tank linking, but we might not get that.

[zxctypo]

You can define as many nodes as you'd like:

node_stack_bottom01 = -1.25, -0.125, -1.25, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0

node_stack_bottom02 = -1.25, -0.125, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0

node_stack_bottom03 = -1.25, -0.125, 1.25, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0

node_stack_bottom04 = 0.0, -0.125, 1.25, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0

etc

At 2300 hours, about 500 meters off the KSP Launch Pad, an unidentified aircraft was seen carrying a bomb, of massive preportions. (apparently 2300 hours is noon in kerbal time?

The MK-83 Explosive Device is done! If somebody could re-texture it for me that would be GREAT! I am not very good at texturing.

[Austupaio]

Sure, although my fee is allowing me to make an orky version for my own pack.

How do you want it textured? I'll make a few of them if you want, just give me some references.

[Austupaio]

Be back in a few minutes. If you can think of another paint job you'd like I wouldn't mind doing a couple more for you.

[Austupaio]

Here you go. I tested the first draft but not the second, it should be alright but if anything is glaringly wrong, just tell me.

[Jack]

Looks pretty good, Thanks!

Edit: I have one request, could you make the grey-green base color grey?

[Austupaio]

Cool, good luck with future explosives!

[Talfryn]

I really like the bomb, but do you think it is possible to make it a bit more... Explosive? It could use a little more umpf.

[HarvesteR]

Y'know what? I think we could use fuel crossfeed capabilities between stage decouplers. The engines themselves are enough separation to keep fuel from flowing across different stage engines and fuel tanks.

Adding now for 0.8.5

Cheers

EDIT: Yep, added.

[Jack]

Updated the MK-83 Explosive Device with a new texture!

Currently I can't control the explosion, but when it's availible, definantly!

;D

[aj47951]

this reminds me of the V-1 flying bomb

[Rockon]

Intersting bug I've found with this: My Kermen seem to die at the moment the bombs detonate, regardless of the distance between the main pod and the blast. I'm pretty sure they're getting confused and boarding the bombs.

Either that, or they kill people Kerman and leave buildings standing.

Edit: Nope, I'm wrong in blaming the bombs for the death- apparently they were climbing into the RCS and getting blown to hell there, possibly because it's a command module.

On that note, I'd love to see a version of the mark 83 that had a bottom anchor point so I could put it on the tip of my crew module, just to make sure they never botch a landing.

[vanlock]

This makes me think that the game could add some sort of competition between different space ports, and hence the possibility to send rocket-bombs to destroy competitor's rockets and/or bases.
