Oh wow is that a radial cockpit? Good job!

[MrWizerd]

link's in my post at the top of the page.

I've got the beginnings of a tweak-scale config for LLL

Covers a lot of the parts, but not everything. Couldn't get the scaletype to work properly, must be using incorrect syntax.

*snip*

I am working on this now.

@Orionkermin, Porkjet,

Thanks. Yes, there'll be a radial cockpit a normal stack version.

Ermagherd, that's too much awesome in one post, please remove it, my eyes can't take it!

The way you are doing the radial cockpit seems really good and functional. I like it

The nose opening up surprised me I wasn't expecting that. But in a good way.

Well, wouldn't do to have an Antonov without the nose-door. The 225's one of my favourite planes, would love to see it up close sometime.

Lack, I recommend ModuleRCSFX for your vernier thrusters. It allows bi-propellant RCS.

Thanks, I'll try that out.

how do you get modulercsfx to work?? I replaced the normal RCS cfg with the example in its thread's OP, but it just makes the RCS block literally unusable!

also, that new prop engine looks awesome!

Tweakable everything has a way to invert gimbaling, so that might work.

Also, part ideas!

Can we have a front that opens in half sideways? I think that would be far better for rockets too.

Maybe an An-12 like glass nose.

Radially attached canopy style cockpit, i say base it off the P-47.

And lastly, stock alike solar panels based off the ones on the Bigelow Aerospace station concepts.

Small one

Larger/alternate version.

Quick question, is there a way to make the deployed airbags buoyant like the firespitter pontoons are? Preferably only when they're deployed.

Tried for a long time with that one, even with Snjo's help couldn't get it to work.

And something completely un-related.

I decided to download Kerbtown, it's good fun.

[The Destroyer]

Wait what? Kerbtown adds that now?

Just the ability to add things, so I knocked up a few quick models and spent last night playing around with it.

Heh, good choice of gif, I'm actually watching Dr Who right now.

[Robotengineer]

Will we be able to download that for Kerbtown?

[hydran101]

Yes lack. We want that. Give us that. Let us use tanks in it. LET US CREATE WWII IN KSP MUAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH -cough cough- Heh. Sorry.

[oniontrain]

Yeah Kerbtown is great. I can't install it though, because I have too much other stuff installed. Hopefully 64 bit is coming soon. I really want to make some models for it. Shame about the airbags, but I've go no idea how that stuff works. If I had the slightest idea of how to do any kind of programming I'd try and figure it out.

[MrWizerd]

Amen to the 64 bit situation. I am sure that he will let it out soon :0 its pretty cool.

[NathanKell]

Lack, if you're willing, I have a little request for you for SXT. I love the radial intakes, and use them a ton (including some rescaled versions). What would be great, though, is a shock-cone version of them too.

Example (using two rescaled ones):

But due to AJE now modeling intakes, it needs to be one part, and also would obviously look better were the cone actually a cone.

Real-life examples: Starfighter, Mirage, etc.

[comham]

Nice kerbtown assets! Gives the space centre a totally different feel. Looks like a Thunderbirds location set.

[Mekan1k]

... I want those KerbTown locations.

[Tangle]

I have a mighty need for that... BEAUTIFUL!

also great job

[Lack]

Here's a DL for the KSC that I was messing around with,

Requires an up to date version of Kerbtown

I only really made it for personal use, so it's a bit on the unpolished side. But I figured people would have some fun with it. Might be laggy on lower end computers, but I haven't had any problems and this computers about 6 years old now.

Lack sir, you are a good heart. I'm having a lot of fun working on Jeb's personal retreat island thanks to this wonderful art. *huge manly hug* Keep it up

[Mach_XXII]

Lack, that space center is amazing. So much fun to explore
