linuxgurugamer Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 @Starlord Kerman make a nice little shuttle kit, he's left the scene and let me adopt this. Original thread is here: https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/181434-flat-bottom-shuttle-systems/ Flat-Bottom Shuttle Systems is a modular parts pack which allows you to build flat-bottom space planes! These parts have a triangular cross-section of 2.5m and, due to the flat bottom, provide some lift. Please note, the RasterPropMonitor mod is required for the IVAs and will have to be downloaded separately. Comments and feedback are appreciated. Updated: 3/17/2019 The latest update includes surface-attachable wings, added adapters for Mk2, Mk2.5 and Mk3, and new engine mounting plates. Now uses B9 Part Switch. Parts List: Spoiler Command: 4x modules in 2.5m cross-section Aero 5x wings and flaps Cargo 5x cargo bays, 2.5m Crew 1x crew section, 2.5m Fuel Tanks 1x 2.5m fuel tank 3x tail sections 3x 2.5m adapter Coupling 1x 2.5m decoupler 1x Clamp-o-tron Sr docking module 1x Clamp-o-tron docking module Bonus Parts! (yes, I realize they aren't flat on the bottom) 1x 1.25m command pod 1x 1.25m fuel tank Sample Images: Spoiler Cross-section Specifications: Spoiler My thanks to @JadeOfMaarfor his assistance with a number of the changes Changes Fixed bulkhead profile for decoupler Added Connected Living Spaces config Added FAR configs (within the part configs) Adjusted names of a couple of parts due to name collision Thanks to @JadeOfMaar for the following changes Added Localization Added cargo shielding module to all parts that needed it Added TweakScale config Converted all png and tga files to dds Adjusted lift ratings Adjusted part titles and descriptions Adjusted some heat tolerances Changed all parts that hold fuel to use B9 Part Switch for resource switching Mod recommendations Tweakscale Kerbal Joint Reinforcement Raster Prop Monitor Requirements/Dependencies B9 Part Switch Availability Download: https://spacedock.info/mod/2059/Flat-Bottom Shuttle Systems Source: https://github.com/linuxgurugamer/TriCrossSection/ License: MIT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invader_guy Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 hi, excuse me if I happen to be mistaken but using this mod gives me a b9 fatal exception that says "No tank type named 'FBCM' exists", removing the mod gets rid of the error and going through the log it appears to me that it happens when it tries to load parts from this mod (I don't really know how to read logs, so I might be wrong) unsure if this is a problem with my heavily modded install or if there's something wrong with the b9 configs.

I see it. The tank type name is defined with the name FBSM. Sorry. I thought I fully applied that. It was, for a short while, originally named FBCM. @linuxgurugamer PR sent with fix.

gmhs2 Posted Wednesday at 12:37 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 12:37 AM The updated version of the mod seems oddly large, the original mod (using .png textures) only ran up to 136 MB, while the updated version (which swapped to .dds) reaches 1.1 GB, nearly a 10x increase.
