1m nosecone off size.


Recommended Posts

So when building rockets I noticed that the 1m nosecone does not properly fit onto 1m fuel tanks and boosters. It only properly fits onto the 3 person command pod.

My suggestion is to make the top of the 3 person command pod exactly as big as the 1m fuel tanks and also resize the nosecone.

Just a small suggestion, so rockets will look better!

I have not played ksp for a while, tell me if it has been fixed in 0.21

I believe most of the aerodynamic parts will be overhauled at some point (probably around the same time the devs wake up and decide it's time to copy-and-paste Ferrum Aerospace into the stock game), so they're probably just waiting until then to redo the nosecones.

Until then, I feel your pain man.

Whats this?

That is a mis-spelling of Ferram Aerospace Research, a popular mod that makes the aerodynamics in KSP far more realistic than they currently are. Drag drops off as you get past Mach 1, the nosecones improve aerodynamics instead of looking pretty, orientation affects lift and drag of even individual parts... it's pretty nifty stuff and it makes re-entering (at least for me) a huge pain, but it's good fun ESPECIALLY if you want to fly planes.

LOL.

He's talking about Ferram Aerospace Research, a mod that rewrites the Aerodynamics on the game, making nosecones and fairings necessary, airplanes fly a lot better, etc.

I don't use it because aerobraking charts don't work with it, mechjeb hates it, and the game feels different. Give it a try, you may like it. :)
