modus Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 So how does this work, do you land the parts, and then inflate them? Anyway, looking good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking of making a sort of tutorial once I release this mod (soon). But basically you land your part (along with an airlock), right click inflate the module, then using Kerbal Konstructs place a regolith mound of your choice to cover it. v0.2 Release > Added VAB Organiser support > Fixed CoM issue > Added new airlock part Edited August 27 by Lonelykermit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonelykermit Posted August 28 Author Share Posted August 28 Currently tearing my hair out trying to get ksp parttools to add props. God i hate unity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonelykermit Posted August 29 Author Share Posted August 29 (edited) For the IVA's I don't think i'll be able to make it compatible with FreeIva, mostly due to my incompetence and lack of knowledge :p.

Lonelykermit Posted August 29 Author Share Posted August 29 After multiple unity and PC crashes I think I'm on course to adding IVA props and hopefully adding FreeIva support. @Don0303 I'll notify you if i encounter any issues or need help.

Lonelykermit Posted August 30 Author Share Posted August 30 @Don0303I'm a bit confused when it comes to the tube for the hatches, I'm planning on using one of the tubes already included with the FreeIva mod but i don't know if i have to place it in the hatch model itself or i just have to specify it in the config file. Could you clarify? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you clarify? basically, you just need to add the hatch prop that comes with Freeiva, give it a HatchConfig module in the cfg, and then it will automatically create a tube to whatever it's connected to. beyond that id need to see more specifics about what you have and what you want to help out more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don0303 Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 actually i should clarify the HatchConfig isnt always necessary, FreeIVA is able to assign hatches to nodes automatically, but using HatchConfig allows you to create some custom behaviours if you're doing anything more complex than having a hatch in the exact same place as a node Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonelykermit Posted August 30 Author Share Posted August 30 (edited) Is there any way I can get the hatches to connect? When i try to interact with the other hatch it says it's obstructed? Edited August 30 by Lonelykermit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
