zYnthethicz Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I have tried to make a mega huge rocket which shall take our brave kerbinauts to the mun but.. the souyz parts are EXTREMELY unstable, or maybe its the engine parts, either way, when trying to launch the whole thing jumps 3 meter into the air and then collapse. Edit: If you press spacebar at the right time when it jumps you make a literal 'jumpstart'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kickasskyle Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Heavy Struts, for heavy rockets.Doing this pretty much leaves the only one problem, which is spin ... but with practice you can make the struts correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semininja Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Speaking of Heavy Struts, why are they a full mass unit each? The normal ones are, what, 0.05? The most the heavy struts should be is maybe .2, and that\'s still a bit high. I changed them after I downloaded, but I think you might want to consider lowering the mass in the DL.

spawnofbill Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Here\'s a subtle hint.Top heaviness might go away shortly.WANT NOAW!!!Will it fit in a 2m or 3m fairing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus christ that must be a typo or something in the CFG. That\'s insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most the heavy struts should be is maybe .2, and that\'s still a bit high. I changed them after I downloaded, but I think you might want to consider lowering the mass in the DL.This is the very reason I made medium struts, which weigh around 0.1.I did reduce the heavy strut to 0.5, but it may not have made it in. The reason I have it so high is so it can cover a broader range of use, since jacking up every other value to near infinite levels doesn\'t have the same effect as increasing the weight.WANT NOAW!!!Will it fit in a 2m or 3m fairing?If I recall it fits in the 3m because it just scrapes 2m+ in width.

Winston Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 With the legs, it\'s a shade under 3m.Here it is compared with a three meter cylinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorik Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 i just wanted to say that this is my favorite pack ^^any chance of you doing fairings and adapters in the different sizes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kickasskyle Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 One day, when the stars align with the ISS, and Winston looks up at the night sky and screams out 'YYYYEAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGG'.This day may soon be approaching.

tvizz Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Please reduce consumption of the two smallest engines. They have lower Power/consumption then the big ones, which dose not makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kickasskyle Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I did just check the Vixen2, and you are right that engine is wrong,a fault on my part.The Vesta ties it\'s efficiency with the stock motor, but since it is low power I have reduced the consumption a touch more.

iamwearingpants Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Do you guys think you could do 4 or maybe 5 meter parts?I wonder if they would fit on the launchpad. Or even work.We shall maybe see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killerhurtz Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Soon, that won\'t be a problem. It\'s in my plans to make a part that will remove the grief of the launchpad tower AND allow for no rocket size limitations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killerhurtz Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Something along those lines, most probably. A very tall, wide and heavy decoupler of some sorts. It\'s only a concept for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or even work.We shall maybe see!I don\'t think we\'d be making those anytime soon, unless it\'s something unique in those sizes.It\'s really just a matter of thinking up good ideas as well as expanding on others, at the moment.The more feedback and ideas, the more things we can expand and develop on.ps.The lander will be released in a seperate file. So just incase someone opted out of our main pack, they can get this one independant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would also have to make a crapton of adaptors for it, although a universal 1-2, 2-3, 3-4 type of system may work.BTW, will you be doing verniers?
