RollKage

[lo-fi]

Ah, that'll be why, then! Thanks, that puts that one to bed. I have just seen the KSP Arduino display in your sig, though... Might have to have a play with that when I get a few minutes!

Now the spaceport is down, could someone provide a working link?

I was just looking for these the other day. Kudos good sir.

Wonderful.Thank you.

Great mod pack, thanks to everyone involved in developing this.

Any chance you can add wheels that attach vertically? its good for heavy rovers to get better ground clearance.

[zitronen]

You can try changing the attachment point yourself in the cfg file, e.g. node_attach = 0.30, -0.06, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1

The first 3 numbers are position, last 3 are the orientation vector.

Sorry to butt in, but that last statement needs a minor correction. It should be thus: The first 3 numbers are position, the NEXT 3 are the orientation vector, and the FINAL (7th) number is the node size.

Just for clarification.

With this mod, I can... I can...

FINALLY BUILD A LAB TRUCK!!!

THANK YOU, ANGUSMCBETH!

EDIT: Not usable with Career Mode

...You're BRINGING ME DOWN, man! lol

[zitronen]

wait they should work in career mode? did you unlock them?

Edit:

Ok looks like for some reason the wheels in the first post are the older version. Try replacing them with these (also more bonus wheels!): https://sites.google.com/site/zitronfiles/RollKageKerchelin.zip

Hopefully angumcbeth will update it.

Did you include the antigrav plugin part Zitronen? Those were cool and should have been finished off. Any 3D artists out there willing to produce a cool model for the rollkage anti grav system?

The link in the first post will be updated as soon as l get a reliable internet connection (major upgrades at our exchange)

[zitronen]

No I didn't, it has not been properly tested, could be buggy. But you can include it if you want!

[SmiteZero]

*peep* 0.25?

[Kenobi McCormick]

These use no plugin, thus they will work just fine unless Squad starts ducking about with the internal rover wheel code. AKA: The game can't even tell they're non-stock parts, they work fine.

[SmiteZero]

Hooray!

This pack needs updates! (It's very awesome)

[angusmcbeth]

Haha! Its also very old, but I'm glad you enjoy it none the less. I'm amazed that people still use this!

[SmiteZero]

Been using it since it came out (with a long hiatus).

I became obsessed with large, articulated rovers because of this pack.

It's so easy to build big rovers with these parts. I keep trying to make a small one..

I wish the RollKages had an attachment node on the rear as they do top and bottom.

[angusmcbeth]

Excellent rovers SmiteZero! Minekat in particular. Nice work.

[taniwha]

It's actually pretty easy to add your own nodes if you're willing to edit the config file.

Yes, and with the effort that SmiteZero is putting into building these it would be a skill worth learning.

[SmiteZero]

Unlikely. I can't even make a TweakScale .cfg for the wheels.

Could I convince you to update the pack by collating the two, adding an extra node and fixing this long-standing problem?

Edited November 20, 2014 by SmiteZero

[SmiteZero]

Doublepost because this pack is so awesome.

[angusmcbeth]

OK SmiteZero, you win.

Updated the Mk2 link in the first post. Added front and back nodes as it has been requested a few times.

(there was a reason that I never ever added them, but now that the Alt button disables surface attach, well that cures the reason. - Don't ask me what the reason is or was cos I simply don't remember... )

That's wicked.

I'll download the new one now. I'm glad I could help muster enough interest in your project again for a brief while.

[Casei]

Okay, I just found RollKage this morning due to it making its way back to page 1. I'm still using .23.5, and so I had to snag this and try it out. I had to modify all the cfg's for the tech tree, but I gotta say...

This is FREAKING AWESOME.
