Fuel Lines Broken in New Version (0.17)? And how to get to cockpit?


Recommended Posts

Two things:

* The attached craft (Stubby) is exceedingly simple. Why don't the fuel lines feed fuel from the central tanks to the engines around the perimeter of the booster? This kind of thing worked in 0.16.

* What do I do to access internal cockpit views?

Thanks for your time.

EDIT: Okay, I figured out that switching to internal view is as simple as switching cameras (<C>). But the fuel line question still has me stumped. Does anyone have insight into the problem?

They are working, you put them on backwards! =>

Look at the little black arrows on them, you will see they are pointing UP on the outside fuel lines, and down on your other ones..

So you are sending fuel from your outside tanks to your inside tanks.

Click first at the tank you want to drain from, then click at the tank you want to send to..

Oh that's why it was never working for me.

Always assumed, that the first point is from where it's draining and the second one, to where it should go. No wonder my engines never worked...

:D (dope slaps self) Really?

It never even occurred to me that those lines might be directional. I'll try that out when I get to play again (which, based on my weekend, won't be until Sunday night). Thanks for the pointer!
