  1. 1. What rocket do you guys use most frequently?

My one suggestion is to downscale the rockets. The SAS and Mechjeb have a harder time keeping heavier, more powerful rockets on target. It would be reasonable to do a 10% scale down on things like fuel consumption, weight, fuel amount, and thrust. This would make it much easier to control while still being able to reach the moon and other destinations.

When I try to unzip the file, it says:

'Unable to unarchive 'IFE v1.4.2.zip' into ____.

(Error 1 - Operation not permitted.)

What does this mean? Is it because I\'m not authorized in your dropbox?

You\'re probably trying to extract it to a location on your (windows 7?) system where the operating system doesn\'t allow you to do so. Try another location, 'My documents' f.e. or logon to your system as administrator.

I\'m on a Mac and im just trying to extract it to my documents. I\'ve never encountered an error like this before. I\'ll just send it over to my pc and bring back the extracted files. Hopefully that\'ll help.

Thanks

I could try to update the parts later on if he doesn\'t.

That would be awesome! Just know what kind of thing you\'re getting into (I think). I\'m pretty sure if you tweak size, you\'d have to tweak the weight, and on the Intrepid V and SLS, that would be a beotch to do. You\'d have to tweak thrust/weight, and with the SLS, that\'s gonna be a tall order. Also, if you update the pack, could you add some satellites or probes or other cargo? Maybe the cargo variant of the Altair? And make sure it doesn\'t tip the rocket uncontrollably during flight.

That\'s the cargo variant, looks cool, right?

Anyway, if you do, thanks! It would be a sad day for everyone here if this pack were dead :\'(

For now you can at rescaleFactor = 2.5 to the part.cfg of every part. If you do that the SLS will look something like this:

I second this...bigger isn\'t always better, but IFE first attracted me for its monster delivery options. Just make sure to adjust the thrust and fuel capacity accordingly!

Indeed, if we all stand by and wait we will soon be showered in cool mods, in the mean time you could check out the smaller names that seem to be quick to the draw in updating although Novapounch and this are timeless. But think about it? as the game evolves so will the mods and soon enough you will be walking your kerbal out and repairing that wobbly RCS unit, or docking your IFE ship with your novapounch built space station, turning on your lights powered by solar cells and scanning weird planets and moons far far away with your satellite. It is endless and all we need is to wait and it\'ll be here when it\'s time is due :D

Keep up the good work everyone, not just this moder or any mods but the whole community because together this will becoming something awesome.~ well awesom-er
