Ooglak Kerman Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 @Angel-125 am I correct in the observation that there are no graviolium defs within the Blueshift mods for the GU planets? If this is the case then I'll write patches for Blalo and Elius in the Nova Kirbani system to correspond to exoatmospheric graviolium of Eve and Jool respectively. Thoughts?

JadeOfMaar Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 @Ooglak Kerman Graviolium configs already exist for Galaxies Unbound. But they lie within Rational Resources. There is also a "Graviolium Ping" experiment that is attached to any part that is a Graviolium detector so just by entering an SOI you can run this and know if there's Graviolium waiting there. (To save you the trouble of doing the tedious guess-work flights and drilling.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooglak Kerman Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 @Angel-125 or @JadeOfMaar regarding the spawning of alien jumpgates. spawnMode = everyLastPlanet Does this mean every planet in a system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have had it set to spawnMode = randomOrbit at some point. Thank you for the clarification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haydne Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 how can i warp without using a warp ring, im trying to fly an ssto but the warp ring just makes it unable to land ive tried using warp coils but only 2 more would just be too long. advice please?

It will help your SSTO design to use the KFS anti-grav engines (which also consume Graviolium; available in 1.25m and 2.5m) and lose your chemical engines and their propellants. Your vehicle will be lighter without those weights so the nacelles will perform better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For your warp capability, a warp engine and stick on some warp coils. In this picture, there is a S3 warp engine and 4 warp coils. What @JadeOfMaar said about losing the blowtorches and going with gravatic is the e-ticket ride. Spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ooglak Kerman Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 (edited) @haydne Here is some more food for thought on a warp/gravatic SSTO. This is not an SSTO by any stretch. No way it can re-enter an atmosphere. That's a Size-2 Warp engine and then 3 x Size-1 warp coils on each pylon. If you keep your vessel mass around 50T, then you can easily get away with 2x Size-1 warp coils per side and get good performance. Spoiler Show us what you come up with!

Ooglak Kerman Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 1 minute ago, haydne said: how can i warp without a warp ring because i cant land sstos with them There is the warp ring and then there are the warp coils. They perform the same function and need the warp core. The warp core provides the gravity waves and the warp coil provides the warp capability. Have a look at the pictures that have been posted.

haydne Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 (edited) ive added a few warp coils on the side but it says it still needs more power. the ship is 35 tons i dont understand whats wrong Edited November 17, 2022 by haydne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to be more than 1 planetary radius in orbit for it to work. ~650KM for Kerbin is generally safe. Post a picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw it on Discord. I like the banana. Does this mean the next version of GU is near at hand? I'd be happy to be a pre-release tester, but I'm not sure how to go about asking.

It seems pretty close to that already. I suppose a GU update is near. From what I currently see, StarCrusher only needed to make one planet, and rearranging the others is a task that could've been done ages ago.

In orbit is actually possible if you enable jumpgates. You could use the tetrahedron anomalies as a basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ooglak Kerman Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 @Angel-125 The alien jumpgates by default are set for the toll paidByTraveler = false How does it get paid? wbiAlienJumpgate.cfg doesn't appear to define any amount of graviolium on the gates. One of my heavily used gates has stopped working for some reason. I was able to shift to a different one. I probably need to set paidByTraveler = true though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ooglak Kerman Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 @Angel-125 I set a minigate up in orbit and gated a Kerbal from the Center up to it. Said Kerbal became unresponsive and just walking. Is this expected? Seems you said something about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
