[Barklight]

I'm oozing with anticipation

[xandalis]

This is fantastic! *Downloads*

[ahd1601]

I think it means..... That the mod is ready and waiting on the final OK's.

i can confirm he has finished the updates

[Babalas]

100 points to whoever can figure how to get a python script to do it automatically

For linux or cygwin users

find . -name 'part.cfg' | xargs sed -i -e '1iPART' -e '1i{' -e '$a}'

[lyndonguitar]

So excited

[BigNose]

So close to release, can't wait to build a big transport plane with this plus my Aviation Lights! The Parts look so awesome!!

[Lazurkri]

....still curious if Bac'd do a purpose built escape/drop pod....

Now I need another drool bucket... I hope there is an update soon....

No plans at the moment, it's an awfully niche part. And it's more interesting to build custom escape systems with tiny parts and small pods than use one boring and static piece. Especially since 0.20 got a neat small lander can which looks perfect as an escape pod.

Indeed, like this Nano-Lander. First thing I built in v0.20!

Meh, isn't there a faster way to put these lines into the cfg. files instead of doing them one by one?

I did like that (I'm using a mac....)

1) I reorganized all my mods into the GameData folder like that

then I executed this little script

#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
        //I'm using Unix so this a fast way to parse folder for files
	exec('find GameData  -name "part.cfg"',$result);
	foreach ($result as $partFileName){
               //I guess that Squad parts are already fixed, and don't deserve extra parsing
		if (preg_match("#Squad#s",$partFileName ))
			continue;
		$parseMe=file_get_contents($partFileName);
                //check if the file is already fixed..
		if (preg_match("#PART#s",$parseMe))
			continue;
                //fix and save
		$fixedFile="PART\n{\n// fixed By fixPart script\n".$parseMe."\n}";
		 if(!file_put_contents($partFileName,$fixedFile))
		 echo "can't save ".$partFileName."\n";
	}
?>

Now Is all OK and I can play my saves as usual

Thought I could share a little shuttle design I was able to pull of with this mod.

Here you go

Can make it safely into a low circular orbit with still about 500-700m/s dv left I'd say. Can even make it back safe to the ground again, with the use of over 9000 parachutes though.

Waiting for 2.6 - wann use that sabre engine so damn hard.

....still curious if Bac'd do a purpose built escape/drop pod....

if your lookin for pre-built escape pod try FusTek kappa pod. It even kinda matches the B9 stuff (both use that kinda off-white 'airliner' color)

This is one of the few mods im really watchin for update...I honestly can't make atmo-aircraft without it!!

[ahd1601]

1-2 more days left until release, assuming they find no more issues

[Guest]

So, how's the update coming along?

I was looking through the forums and those are the ones I found....

AND THEY ARE SEXY.

So are there compatability problems with .20 atm? Should I wait for an update to come out for this or can I just install the .19 version?

[EPD]

For me its working as it was before but im waiting for update as well since there will be new great parts

[moxzot]

I seem to love watching this tread

[KhaosCorp]

heh same here, I been checking here and kas thread like every hour =P

as much as I really wanted update for this, I want it so much more now seeing those pics

must fly yf-28!!!

[moxzot]

I hope the next update after the engines one will have some type of landing gear that would be nice to have a heavy landing gear

No plans for landing gear at the moment. The game lacks mirroring to support proper asymmetrical gear models and landing gear module lacks support for multiple wheel sets, which renders large gears a lot less useful. Maybe at some point in the future when these issues will be resolved, but no, not anytime soon.

[Sir_Tramalot]

How close are we to the update?

[Lazurkri]

My god, how do they FIT in it? there must be some Kerbal Voodoo going on to let them shoehorn in that tiny thing!
