how to use wormhole 

To use the wormhole:

descend your vessel whithin 3 kilometers of it's surface, and you should arrive in the new system.
That's all there is to it!

[Psynio41]

Really cool mod but after I downloaded it, I noticed something weird on the tracking station. There was no wormhole and the black hole. Although they appear from far away, they don't when I zoom in closer. How do I fix this?

can you provide more information like screenshots, logs, etc?

[Psynio41]

Here are screenshots of how both wormhole and the black hole look like zoomed in and out (they don't exist while zoomed in)

Let me know if I also need to send screenshots of my logs. I don't really know what part of my logs to screenshot so yeah..

I guess you didn't install Singularity. You can check my installation instruction/checklist again.

Update v1.0.3-alpha1
The update is now available on GitHub.
Note: this is an Alpha release. Some features are still unfinished. Use it at your own risk.

Changes since v1.0.1:

1. Orbit adjustments:

(1) Simetra-Simeht system

- Move the binary gas giants closer to each other.

- Move Noira to retrograde orbit around the barycenter.

- Move Noi to L4 Lagrange Point of Sunorc.

- Adjust the SMA of Norihc and Noyreg.

- Increase the SMA of the barycenter for a bit.

(2) Increase the SMA of Maelg, Sunorc, and Aralc system for orbit stability.

(3) Move Aralc-A and Aralc-B closer to each other.

(4) Adjust the SMA of Ahtpan, Tot, and Sera.

(5) Increase the inclination of Meiuqer.

2. [WIP] Parallax ground objects (Unfinished).

3. [WIP] Science definitions (Unfinished).

4. Better implementation for HomeSwitch and other settings.

5. [WIP] Add support for Principia. The system stability has been tested for more than 500 years. Only works WITHOUT homeSwitch.

6. Add support for ResearchBodies.

7. Other minor changes/fixes:

- Increase the atmosphere height of Rouqea.

- Better sunlight curve for RSS.

- Better planet introduction writing.

- Remove the sunlight requirement for ScanSat since it only recognizes Kerbol as light source.

- The wormhole will orbit Sarnus if OPM is installed.

- Fix the timewarp limits in low-Kcalbeloh orbit.

- Fix the accretion disk invisible in Linux/Mac.

- Fix the orientations for tidally locked planets with RSS installed.

- Remove RunSharp.dll in bundled KopernicusExpansions since it's useless and can cause issues.

Strange thing is that I have also installed singularity and I even checked if it was compatible on CKAN. I'll list the dependances I downloaded and maybe see what I forgot. 

Singularity,  kobernicus and ksp community fixes. 

I don't know what's going on. Even with dependences, both the worm hole and the black hole doesn't exist. Btw in case if you need to know, I am on windows 11.

Could you post your logs in my discord server? Or you can share it with google drive or something similar if you don't use discord.

I will take a look and try to fix it in the next update.

Unfortunately doesn't look like the new update fixed it. Kerbin is still abnormally dark at 10x rescale.

Thanks for reminding! I forgot to include them in the update. Currently you can find and open KerbolLightCurveFix.cfg with txt editor in /GameData/KcalbelohSystem/OtherFeatures/ and make the following change:

On the first line, from:

Just wanted to note the official support included has been tailored by @Jason Kerman from my initial configs. You can find mine available here or in my signature, under Principia Orbit Patches. (I also have other configs, including Principia and axial tilt support for stock and other planet packs, among other things.)

Thanks so much, this fixed it!

I'm wondering if it's normal behavior for this planet pack (or I guess planet packs in general) to use roughly 6-10GB additional ram?

Screenshots were taken on mainmenu after loading up the game, with and without kcalbeloh installed.

Yes, it's common for planet mods.

does this replace the stock system, or is this a seperate star system?

There are options for both. It adds a seperate star system by default, but you can change the option to replace the stock system

Thanks. Do you ever plan to add support for MacOS?

[KerbinIsTheBest_20]

Sorry if I sound a little dumb but, may I ask how to add visual mods like AVP to mods like this? I tried downloading AVP with this mod installed but all it did was remove all clouds in both systems, I installed AVP with CKAN and manually and they gave the same results.
I used the most recent version of AVP and it didn't work, I am still kinda new to planet mods and I really want to add AVP to it.

Unfortunately, AVP is a graphics configuration specifically for the stock system and the Outer Planets Mod, so it will might not work on planets from other mods. 

Thankfully, Kcalbeloh has its own configurations for Scatterer and EVE, so you can install those mods instead and get graphics of a similar quality.

It should work with AVP. Could you send me your logs?

[KerbinIsTheBest_20]

Sorry for late reply; I was in class but I found out the root of it by digging in my AVP folder and removing different files and testing if they work, eventually it appears that it was the OPM (I don't use OPM) configs making the clouds disappear. Thank you for the help anyways and sorry if I wasted your time, I was sleeping and in class.
