KSP Interstellar Extended

[DrMike432]

Hey all,

I'm new to the forums because of Interstellar extended looking for info on this. And trying for hours to get this work. There is no information on this engine anywhere.

I'm trying to use the Aluminium Liquid Metal Injection Engine. 
It requires Aluminum and LqdOxygen, I got tanks for that. When I fire the engines. It says it has no fuel, and it frustrates me.
it also requires electricity to heat up the aluminum, I got that.

My question is how do I get it to work?

I can provide pictures if you need em.

ps: I hope I'm posting in the right channel, I usually don't use forums at all.

Kinds regards,

DrMike432

this forum is for the stock game. you generally have better luck using the specific mod subforum. but getting answers concerning any mod is kinda difficult

Aluminium Liquid Metal Injection engine requires the metal to be molted before it can be injected into the engine before it can react with liquid hydrogen. This requires a large amount of power. Therefore there need to be a large KSPIE compatible power source avaialble, either from capaciator, super lithoim battery, an onboard reactor or beamed power.
