The stock ones are a fixed number of petals based on diameter of the base, StockPlus adds: Quote + ModuleProceduralFairingFix (Plus) (14 Nov 15) - (STATUS: Added Fix) - Description: Fairings removed from craft sometimes break when reattaching in VAB/SPH. - Fixes some bugs with removing/replacing interstage fairings which can cause fairings to lock up - Fixes fairing decoupler force (small fairings are too high, and large fairings too low) - Fairings that are children parts now properly rebuild when added with symmetry (is actually in SymmetryActionFix) - Center of Body Lift and Center of Drag bugs fixed - (Plus) Adds tweakable that allows adjusting the number of shell splits on the fairing - (Plus) Adds tweakable decoupler force range. - (Not Yet Enabled) Adds tweakable option to enable/disable fairings inside a procedural fairing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tw1 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Some weird things happened today. Not quite sure why.... The rest of my KSP sesh was spent in testing and training exercises. I took a crew of three out in the latest version of my amphibious planet explorer, who took it, and several passengers to the island. Then they managed to arrive, they all got out to look at the historic spaceflight hardware, and pay their respects to kerbals who have since crashed.

Torgo Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Not in KSP, but took advantage of the 75 degree windless day here in NJ and launched model rockets all morning with my son. Suffered the first casualty of our space program when one rocket ended up landing in a tree, but had 4 rockets with 17 launches between them. Now will have to pack them away probably until April.

Mat2ch Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) I finally had an idea for my Ike miner craft. It got a bit out of control, but will give me enough fuel for a looooong mission: And then I, well, look for yourself, there's not much to explain here Edited December 13, 2015 by Mat2ch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fisfis Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 So today I was boring after completing some missions around a Jool and building heavy harvester for a Mun mission. As we are still missing robotic manipulators I tried to build one from stock parts: I tested this in space and on Kerbin as well. It is almost useless in space as when I want to move with particular part and SAS is active it is moving with whole ship. On Kerbin it works quiet well but I didn't try to grab some heavy load yet. I have had a plan to mount it to my new truck I have built afterwards, but I didn't find a way how to mount all grabbing parts together yet. Instead I build a truck with trailer and moved a ship to the sea. Trailer is mount using the grabbing unit with free pivot so it behaves really great and looks like real trailer. It is pity there are no better wheels and also that is is not possible to turn more with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jim Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) Spent the day thinking up and writing out a mission report for my asteroid base. So while I didn't actually play much, part of my day was still KSP related... lol... Need to think how to proceed in my career from here. Edited December 13, 2015 by Just Jim spelling, what else???

McFarnsworth Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Deorbit a space station It survived much longer and in better condition than I had anticipated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I'm currently working on bringing crew back from my space station. It will be its last crew before it's retired. I'm not going to deorbit it for historical reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KerBlammo Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) Sent up a component for the orbital Mun Lab via SSTO Rocket Plane. The SSTO can barely make a 71x71km orbit with cargo, but its good enough. The cargo is released and the SSTO de-orbits before completing a full orbit. The payload is picked up by a nuclear tug and taken to Munar orbit. Where it is attached the Mun Lab. Also at Mun lab are Expedition 1 along with their transfer vehicle Relayer II and the reusable Mun Lander they brought with them. The lander has completed its first landing and return to orbit and there is enough fuel on the station for two more landings.

TrooperCooper Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Finished production and orbital assembly of the Voyager II, an interplanetary exploration craft featuring 15,000 m/s dV, all the scientific equipment one can think of (including IR telescopes and even a super collider) and able to keep a crew of ten Kerbals alive for more than five (earth-) years. Right now it is equipped with a lander for Eeloo since that will be its first destination as soon as it is fueled up and the crew is ready...

Ehco Corrallo Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I used hyperedit to put large debris fields into orbit to pose problems. As of yet, the debris has not posed any problems. It decided to look spectacular instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carepanda Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Another multipurpose mission. Testing interplanetary manned vessel(now only at Kerbin SOI) and level as much crew as possible by visiting both moons and Kerbol orbit. So... vessel itself. 5k nuke powered d/v, 4500 USI supplies, full load of science equipment(inside lithobrake service bay) and a lot of docking ports for moar boosters some neccessary thingies. Thingies on the way. Orbital farms. Not required at Kerbin. Just for test. Ooops. Wrong side... Now properly. And last step at assembling - lander and pods with newbie kerbonauts. First recruit. Saved from LKO. First stop at Mun mining and refining ship. Terrible lags at docking 150+220 part ships. Need to do simplier designs.... Group photo after flag planting. One more lander refuel. And last part of rookies returned succesfully. Arriving at Minmus. Another act of group flag planting. ^.^ At the same time at another Minmus spot. *knock* *knock* "Please, take me out of here!!!" "Okay. But you riding outside, cuz this cupola suits only one." "Hey, you still here?" "Of course!" "Finally, peoples... and foooood!!!" Last flags planted. Only bit of fuel left after leaving Kerbin SOI and returning to LKO. But 120x80 is more than enough to deorbit with RCS only. Fire show at landing as usual. Receiving new stars. Eh. Some of them who comes directly from Minmus got only 2 stars. Legendary four as veterans goes down with comfort at lander. Again dark... And again water... Phew. So, results. Long modular designs is usable, but not comfortable at handling(especially at docking). I wish Squad made stronger docking ports and something to attach large ports radially without any adapters.

n.b.z. Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I made this picture. Seriously, there is more white in this image than anywhere else in my browser. This is a more extensive effort to re-style the forum than my last one. This time I inverted the whole thing to get light text on a dark background. The resulting CSS file now exposes most of the background and text colors to any interested reader, and I tried to structure and comment it reasonably well, so that modding it should be relatively easy. However, it's neither perfect nor really finished yet. Forum postCSS stylesheet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
