That is AWESOME! I love the "Tesla" on the side. Only complaint, is that the cockpit glass is much too blue. I'm thinking a tad bit darker. Keep it up Bobcat!

Awesome! Has sort of a beetle vibe to it (the creature, not the car).

[Neutrinovore]

Huh. That's the first BobCat rover design that I don't really care for. But that's cool, those solar panels are still awesome.

[tygoo7]

The rover looks great but there are a few things I don't really like about it. The windows are very blue and I think they could be a bit darker or something and the wheels look like wagon wheels and its doesn't look like there is a tire at all. Still very cool though

[Deltac]

the wheels look like wagon wheels and its doesn't look like there is a tire at all.

I'm doing my best to remember, but as far as I can remember, there has never been a tire in space/on mars. Moon counts as space with gravity... AND DUST THAT GETS EVERYWHERE!

Anyway, can't wait for Home 3.0

Reminds me of Lunokhod:

I hope windows will get some better texture, right now they look like made from plastic. Wheels are really cool thought, as someone mentioned like lunokhon ones.

[Virtualgenius]

I hate to say this in the nicest way possible, but those wheels are terrible they need to be wider and of a non wagon wheel design basically lowered with mag wheels and slightly clearer windscreen glass, with it being that tall with skinny wheels it will be very easy to flip it over, wider wheels lower ride height would be better in my opinion.

You textures look like those from ZZZ, who did the textures from the Interstellar pack.

Anyway, this mod will be awesome

[K3-Chris]

There was that mod that let you see into the cockpit and see the kerbals inside etc, that still around? I don't like the opaque window method, looks ugly.

[BobCat]

Im also love transparent cocpit, but in current game version this work no good.

About wheels... yes, i like this wagoon weels

I love the wheel...looks nothing like a wagon yall =P

On the matter of cockpits what ever happened to the SFR guy (or whatever that mod was called)?? May be worth trying to contact and see if he is still developing...if not maybe he is willing to pass the torch so to speak.

[K3-Chris]

I like the wheels as well, spokes make sense in space, more lightweight, wheels on cars have more flat sides for aerodynamic reasons, no air on the mun to worry about.

[BobCat]

im try make SRF mod cockpit , but this plugin work terrible (spam errors , bugs if you have 2 simmilar pods and etc).

This need make Squad developers, i dont thiks this hard work.

[SuperWeegee4000]

Just a heads-up: The title of the thread should say "Colonization, exploration, and research vehicle." Forgive my obsession with this.

Not that you need us to tell you, but your stuff always has a great design to it. I like these wheels, and if they work best with this vehicle then use em. Whats wrong with a moon wagon anyway?

[BobCat]

[KhaosCorp]

I love how that rover looks...last pic reminds me of a scarab trying to make itself look bigger in defense.

Are the panels just enough to refit the rover, or could this be used as mobile power plant for small bases?

[BobCat]

This panel for orbital ships...but you can use them in any...base colony or other structure. Im planing 3 different size panels, this medium.

[bihlbo]

Awesome! Has sort of a beetle vibe to it (the creature, not the car).

More specifically, a scarab.

Oh come on. I like Bobcat's prose a lot. Direct, efficient, confident, no BS. I've never read anything Bobcat wrote and thought "oh get to the point". We should all aspire to communicate as awesomely as he.

...Dude, all I did was fix the grammar.

I love those solar panels. Really can't wait for the release!

Oh nice!!! I thought the panels were part of the rover...want it even more now =) Those will look great on my orbital processing plants.

On another note...

Bobcat...what would it take to get you to switch the HOME Gen2 HUB FuelTank texture to a .tga (or any other easy to open format in GIMP)??? I ask because I have the part copyed and use it for Kethane storage as well. Would love it if I can go in and change those tanks to green. People say you can open .mbm in GIMP with the right plugin..but I have never got any working right =(
