alexustas Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 (edited) After the long wait, here is the working prototype of the capsule with full IVA for your testing pleasure.Javascript is disabled. View full album In total, five monitors of two different sizes were added. A set of buttons and switches to control basic functions like RCS, SAS and custom action groups and cockpit lighting are now included. All information about the current state of the ship is grouped by typical tasks -- ascent/landing, orbital maneuvers, rendezvous/docking, ship state information, resource table and a crew listing. Three external cameras are routed into the displays. To select a page just push the button on the montor:Monitor 40 x 10 (small):Ascent/descent modeOrbital parametersRendezvous/dockingGeneral ship informationCrew rosterResourcesExternal cam from the airlock sideTurn the monitor offJavascript is disabled.

View full albumEvery monitor page is user-configurable, see the full documentation of the RasterPropMonitor plugin at https://github.com/Mihara/RasterPropMonitor/blob/master/DOCUMENTATION.mdCrew capacity increased to three -- total dry mass increased to 1.6 tons from extra life support equipment.Thanks to Mihara for his excellent plugin (source distribution at http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/57603) which is included in the package.I hope to read your complaints and/or compliments shortly!Coming up next:Interior itself still needs to be textured.More random props and parts within the interior.Hopefully, SCANsat (http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/55832) integration for the monitors.Various animated graphical indicators.

Guest Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) That is awesome. Are you willing to share the craft file?If she flies, and if I can correctly document the mods I used to assemble her. I think I managed to hold myself to a half dozen or so.

Guest Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) Right, then. As nervous as I am about sharing vehicles I've made (for fear people will realise what crap they are), I present to you the Alcor LEM. This is my first general release, so please be kind.

All were nominal. You should be able to set her down with a bit of fuel left in the descent tanks, if you haven't tried making any sizeable plane changes with only the LEM. Use only as directed. Some small parts make pose a choking hazard. Warranty void if used for more than looking at under flattering lighting.

tygoo7 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 The Iva is beautiful! This capsule is now the best landing capsule ever I think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drtedastro Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 This IVA is the best 'Kerbalishist' I have seen. Fantastic work. Please keep this stuff coming.. So much Kerbal detail and operational buttons and such.... Wow..you get the idea i like it??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexustas Posted November 12, 2013 Author Share Posted November 12, 2013 I hereby present a new type of prop -- an animated indicator that can display graphically the same values the monitors display textually, made possible using the new RasterPropMonitor modules.Javascript is disabled.

czokletmuss Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Amazing. I really hope that this level of detail will be in the final form of the KSP, 'cause now IVA don't provide enough information for comfortable IVA-only flight.
