AirPark - Continued

Freeze your vessels during flight. Useful for parking large vessels such as airships boats, submarines etc... Vessel will be set to a "landed" state and previous state will be recorded.

Thanks to the original Author : @Smelly and previous maintainer : @dunclaw

  • Use the supplied part to Park the vessel by right click menu 
  • When a vessel is un-parked its previous velocity and speed will be restored
  • Auto Un-Park - if set to on will un-park any vessel once within physics range
  • Current Work In progress issues
    • The toolbar functions are known to be buggy at the moment
    • I am working to move this to a Vessel module to allow for more consistent behavior

Availability

Available via CKAN

Wait so can I just freeze a plane mid air?

yes, so you can do things like having a big airship with a landing strip on it.  Because the game will normally remove vessels that are in flight that are below a certain altitude if they get unloaded because you either got too far away or went to the tracking station, etc...  I've missed having this mod.

Hi. First off thank you so much for keeping this mod up to date it means a ton to me. I do have an issue or question though. For whatever reason I can use the air park on airships but for any other vessels it doesn't give me the option. Notably I'd like to be able to use it on my boats but right clicking the part it doesn't show the park option and the toolbar doesn't provide it either. Is this a bug or by design?

Probably because it's landed or spashed.  It's called "Airpark" for a reason

If the mod no longer supports watercraft, this sentence should probably be changed :P

Hi, and first of all thx for adopting this mod as well as all the work you've done for modded KSP, linuxgurugamer!

While using the Airpark mod, I noticed that freezing a craft is not possible on the moon, as it's status is marked to be "orbit or suborbit". Now is there a specific (functional) reason why it should not be possible to freeze  a craft in orbit? Or is there any possibility to enable this?

I tried commenting out the line that checks if vessel.situation is orbiting in AirParkPartModule.cs, but I haven't yet managed to recompile successfully(because I don't know how the project is built).

Have a nice day

Ummm, Airpart is exactly that AIRpark.  It is intended to allow planes to be parked, as, for example, if you need to control another, etc.

I'll try to add an option (off by default) to allow parking in suborbital, if I can, will be out in a day or so

Well, after testing, I can say it does not seem to work. I don't get the message on the top of the screen, but the craft keeps moving when I press park. I could also just recompile the code locally with some help.

Well, sorry then.  I only adopted this starting with 1.10.1, can't really help for something I didn't provide.  I fixed a number of bugs, there might be something in 1.8.1 which is missing

You _did_ install the dependencies, right?

Yes they are installed. I am using ckan. Well, in the end, I am just looking for a safe way to deploy bases near the ground(i.e. launchpads and others). The idea was to airpark a launchpad a few meters above the ground. Any other solution might be good too.
