Is it something like extraplanetary launchpads where you can build and launch from orbit..... or...... eh? Edit: NVM... I now see the hidden pictures.

PoomTGP Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Amazing. Does the Starship Expansion Project remodel Tundra's Starship? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SofieBrink Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 No it adds a completly new starship model, It uses the plugins created by @ValiZockt for Tundra as the flap controls though. This means you do need Tundra V5.0 or higher for SEP's Starship to function properly ( for now ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 (edited) Hi I know that this forum is not the forum of Starship Expansion Project, but it does not have a thread so I will post here. Does anybody else have wimpy heat tolerance for the Starship? Today I had to use the 'ignore max temperature' cheat to get through re-entry. The ship can barely take any heat. Please help! And let me know if posting about SEP on this thread is unreasonable Edited August 31, 2021 by SpaceX_Boi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nootnootyt Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 (edited) This works only with Realism Overhaul? Or there is a patch for stock or something. Because when I load the game B9 Part Switch gives many errors saying that there are missing resources, such as liquid methane that does not exist in stock.
