KhaosCorp Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Question:If the 200m asteroid is a 'potato asteroid' shouldn't it hold charge as well =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frizzank Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 Question:If the 200m asteroid is a 'potato asteroid' shouldn't it hold charge as well =Pits a potato in shape not constancy....But a 100m potato in space that generates a charge is interesting....

frizzank Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 Also I'm having difficulty loading it up to spaceport, is this a general problem or specific to me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaylock1988 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Also I'm having difficulty loading it up to spaceport, is this a general problem or specific to me?it seems like EVERYONE has problems with spaceport, uploaders especially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhaosCorp Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 (edited) I think the spaceport servers are not so great...I haven't been able to log on there in over a week (password reset not working) I know a couple devs last night had to get squad support involved to get stuff posted...idk thoughEDIT: does anyone happen to know if the 'obliterator' mod still works, or can be made to work in 0.20+editEDIT: anyone know if MuMechLib breaks KSP or just damned robotics...that's plugin for obliterator...

Sbowyer28 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I wonder what happens when you you put a nuke cfg line for lazor in this? HMMMMM??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaylock1988 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I added Kethane to the the 20m asteroid. I docked a vessel with drills and tried mining, but it wasnt doing anything, then I realized its just mining to itself...so if you have docking ports on your asteroid (and added Kethane to your .cfg file), you dont need any kethane drills or tanks.I have yet to try clamping a ship down with KAS and trying to mine it while undocked.Also, for all of you that just stuck a 2.5m tank on with a Sr. docking port, your fuel will not flow correctly (even when using fuel lines it didnt work quite right). I just experimented with this for about an hour, and discovered that you must have proper radial mounts for fuel to flow correctly. If you want a 2.5m radial mount to stick your Sr. docking port on, you can use the one that comes from the spherical tank addon or from the BACE kit addon (from 18.4).

dangerdoug Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Mods like this, and the subsequent things that people do with them, really make this game great. I can only hope the devs occasionally rifle through the addon subforum and see stuff like the giant asteroid with this disorganized mass of engines on the aft booming into orbit and think "we've done good."

mushroomman Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Now we need a plugin to randomly scatter asteroids at Dres altitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhaosCorp Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 This is only about 1/2 the facility I have planed, but wanted to share what I got done so far...the 2nd half is gonna consist of fuelfarm for ship servicing, kethane storage and refining, and probly another small asteroid...

Deadweasel Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Now we need a plugin to randomly scatter asteroids at Dres altitude.Whoa whoa WHOA! Slow down man!

Octagon Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Really nice addon. But I guess i did something wrong. My rockets always explodes when they touch the asteroid:Octagon-1(with new unreleased wings) attempts to land.After that, the entire rocket explodes, speed= 0.1 m/sWhat I did wrong ?

KhaosCorp Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Kinda hard to asses the issue not knowing the durability of that vehicle...I have yet to try and land something on here, just docked with ports.Keep in mind these asteroids are gonna act like a ship in space, not a planet or moon.

So using docking ports is almost a must. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhaosCorp Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Kinda figured landing would be a no go, that's why I made the little landing pad for a shuttle with squid legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frizzank Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 So I got a little frustrated trying to build a base on a potato, so I made a rounder asteroid with a flatten crater for an easier time building bases and adding rockets.This one is a little larger with flat spots on the top and bottom right were the center of mass is.Also added kethane and a smallish asteroid belt to the save game that I included in the new download.And I am also waiting for someone to take the newest asteroid and cover it with structural plates to make their very own Death Star!>Download Asteroids< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhaosCorp Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) OOOOOOO love the new 50m asteroid, perfect for me!gotta thank you again for these man, I have been having so much fun with these roids!really wish I could make vab building gone...things would get silly Edited June 4, 2013 by KhaosCorp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally i like the irregular shapes the most. (To my opinion the patato is still too regular). Besides, it enhances the challenge of achieving a base.

Besides, it enhances the challenge of achieving a base.The round one is just for fun, it's not meant to be realistic. But just for you the next one I make will be made out of rice crispy treats, with chocolate sprinkles for texture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaius Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Asteroids come in many shapes and sizes, including some nicely shaped ones. They would be rare, of course, but if someone's going to go through the trouble of building a base on one, it makes sense that they'd look at many and pick one of the nicer ones.
