I don t have the DLC but the parts show up for me ( although the wheel bearings are broken ) , perhaps you install the mod incorrectly ?

Most of the base parts from this mod are in structural or in utility. You should find the PT-SP100 Structural Support Unit in the structural category (sort by alphabet and scroll down).

Edit: I recommend the Janitor Closet mod for cases like this, it has a function where you can just filter out all parts except for those from a certain mod.

First of all hats off to benjee for this great mod!

You're welcome. I didn't really playtest it except for making sure it works, so the balance is almost certainly weird (copied from somewhat-equivalent MKS parts with some minor modifications). Comments on the balance are most welcome, and if you find bugs let me know too of course. 

Expand  

So I finally found some time to play with your patch @Grimmas, though not as much as I would like.
- I think overall, it works fine. For me it really feels like my MKS game is extended with some very good looking parts, which is as it should be imo. My base had some MKS stuff in the background making supplies and stuff, feeding my amazing looking habitats. Everybody happy.

- As you say balance-wise there maybe are improvements to be made (i think some hab timers are a little generous if I remember correctly), but I expected it worse than it was :wink: Haven't had the time to look at all the details sadly.

Definitely a thumbs up from me!

@Grimmas Was basically coming here to say the same thing. Pretty much a +1 on this from me.

That also goes for not being able to look deeply at all the details, but I didn't notice any glaring bugs/issues (yet).

I didn't use the USI-LS side of things though, so I can't talk about that.

Nice job!

using the Janitor Closet, i've found all the parts of this awesome mod... quite all the parts, i continue to not find 2 of them.

in the screenshot sent in this thread i've seen 2 parts that i not got in my game:

- the plug used as the final part of the structures
-the docking port used to connect the modules (i've found only the "planetside Clamp-O-Tron jr" version)

If by that you're referring to the endcaps, they're part of most base modules. Needs B9 Parts Switch (which is why that's a dependency), there's also separate adapter endcaps in the Structural tabs.

You need to have this mod's other dependency, Benjee10 Shared Assets. The C-100 APAS port is from that. 

All dependencies are bundled in the mod download, except for the official Breaking Ground DLC.

i've extracted all the folders, bundled into the .rar, intothe Gamedata folder...

but can't find the endcaps or the docking port...

maybe is because my game is "vanilla", without the Breaking Ground DLC?

Not sure quite what you mean by the endcaps here - if you're talking about the flat metal cap on the right hand module in this pic then it's just the small FLA adapter from restock clipped in a bit, not a part from this mod. Otherwise the structural endcaps are included as separate parts and also as a part switch option on every 1.875m part. 

If you are using Janitor's Closet then the APAS docking port wouldn't show up under Benjee10_MMSEV, it'd show up under Benjee10_sharedAssets as it's stored in a different folder.

Worth noting that without the Breaking Ground DLC the MMSEV wheel mounts and wind turbine rotation servo will not work correctly, and some users have reported having problems with them, so it might be worth steering clear until I patch that in the next update (will simply remove the motor functionality if BG is not installed)

ok, for the FLA adapter, i understood... i thought it was part of this mod because i not use "Restock" mod and the FLA adapter in the game is visually different... so, thanks!

for the docking port, maybe i was not clear (sorry, english is not my language)... in the picture you linked, what is used to connect the main large command module and the science module? i see two grey rings between the two modules, and i thought they were docking ports

Ah I see! Those docking ports are from HabTech2 and not included with this mod.

What is the notch in the PT-SP100 Structural Support Unit for? The description says it's for size zero docking port, but I can't figure out what a size zero docking port is.

Expand  

"Size 0 port" usually refers to Clamp-o-Tron Jr. or a compatible port Also, it's not strictly for a docking port, and can be used for anything
