[1.4.3]ALCOR,"Advanced Landing Capsule for Orbital Rendezvous" by ASET (08/02/2017)

[MOARdV]

yes, BIG RED "ABORT" button ) and "STAGE" are next in my "to do" list.

Just make sure the buttons are placed right next to each other in the capsule. It's the Kerbal way.

[angusmcbeth]

I have just had the most immersive gameplay I have experienced in KSP with this part. Beautiful inside and out. We will need a flight manual with so many fantastic functions!

Thank you for sharing this.

Hahaha, only if they are the same color too =P

I must, as good as this pod has been from the start, the last release is just amazing. I think this is the only pod you could do a whole mission from IVA...and NOT be missing out an any info.

[Miller]

This is one of the best looking command pods! Are you thinking of creating any other ones in the future?

[MDBenson]

I really like this pod, it's a masterpiece. It goes really well with th SDHI Service Module and FusTek station parts too (both of which I use regularly).

Thanks, and keep on improving!

[jfull]

Oh wow, with all the features going into this mod, I think I'm going to have to find other reasons to use it other than as a lander pod.

It might make a great control module for a space station

[HeadHunter67]

I think that's a brilliant idea. I may have to try that next time.

[alexustas]

It would be amazing, if you could do an extra model for the abort button, maybe a big red button with a safety .

[czokletmuss]

Now you only need to add alarm siren from "Alien" together with flickering lights and smoke generator and it'll be perfect

[DoubleOSeven1]

If you are considering adding alarms, you may want to add ModularFuel Compat, as the alarm would be going off constantly.

Fixed.

And then you just alter the prop.cfg for the fuel alarm to track the resource you want, instead.

You will be able to alter the alarm configuration yourself to react to any resource the plugin knows by name. Adding mod resources is not a problem and will be done by the time the version with alarms is released.

This is complete and utter amazment, can't wait for the next release.

So this also means those of us who use a life support system can get alarmed if oxygen goes below a day or what not correct?

All of these alarm lamps in the screenshots are made using JSIVariableAnimator module, the same one that was made to handle gauges. It basically takes one of the variables that the monitor already computes anyway and applies it to an animation, which, in case of a lamp, is just lighting up. Any of these variables that is a number can be used to drive an animation, if you need some other lamp, it's only a config file edit (or a ModuleManager patch) away.

Might it maybe be a good idea to do a barebones non-fancy screens version of this pod? My biggest fear is that it will be abandoned in the near or far future and that a new version of KSP breaks all the fancy stuff. It would be nice to have at least the model to play with, as it is beautiful.

I released the source under GPL for the precise reason that if a new version breaks all the fancy screens, and I for whatever reason no longer care to fix them, someone still can.

Mind you, if you just delete all the fancy props from the internal.cfg, it'll load if parts still load at all.

[alexustas]

Big Red Button is in the place )

The first bit is nice to know, and I like how you take things like this into account. The second bit is important to me, as it enables me to adapt the pod to whatever changes come - providing the parts work at all, like you said.

As another side note, by installing Unity and PartTools v20, you can place and edit the props of any IVA visually, it can actually load the internal.cfg and display the IVA, that's the major improvement since v18, I'm told. That's how I made the ModuleManager patches for the stock pods that put an example display into them.

So provided the models remain models, this project should have the longevity of NovaPunch or thereabout if anybody cares about it enough.

[Helix935]

god i love this mod, this should be stock by now

[Themorris]

Big Red Button is in the place )

Now THAT'S what i'm talking about!

Very nice, I like the light effect.

[DasBananenbrot]

will there be a new update soon?

[alexustas]

will there be a new update soon?

yes. some update is coming very soon ))

[shadowsutekh]

This is such an awesome pod. I really enjoy using this!

[Camacha]

I must say, going up in first person it a treat with this pod. Especially combined with kOS.

Am I right that there is no internal staging or throttle control (yet)?
