alexustas Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 So are the buttons on the right side of the capsule (the ones that say kill rot etc.) set to do something in the future or am I missing something?yes. it's a placeholder for support direct input for MJ Smart A.S.S. in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vahal Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Did you improve the capsule hitbox? Cause now I can make the rover I wanted to do for a long time. The only drawback (If I can say) is that the IVA is so nice I'm distracted and my rolltest finished accidentally in the see at 23m/s and I was surprised to see that most of the rover survived... except de capsule anyway This is definitivly my rover command pod too.

Jobin Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Wow, amazing work here! This kind of immersion is what I've been waiting for. I would love to see a CM with a control layout as good as this when you're finished working on ALCOR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boamere Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 yes. it's a placeholder for support direct input for MJ Smart A.S.S. in the futureThanks, that will be really cool, also can i make a suggestion? a button at the right of the capsule that would be "circ at AP" (circularise at apoapsis) this could make mechjeb circularise at apoapsis without having to use the menu, just one button Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z3R0_0NL1N3 Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 There is LEM replica upcoming, so you sure will get some retro stock like feel from that.Awesome! Who is making it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XNerd_Bomber Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 The 1st prototype of ALCOR Descent/Ascent Stages*snip*Nice! If I could make a suggestion, it would be to have the ascent stage engine hidden inside the descent stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaverickSawyer Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Hrm... can you do a custom landing gear to give a wider stance? The stock gear leaves that looking a little top heavy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexustas Posted January 21, 2014 Author Share Posted January 21, 2014 Nice! If I could make a suggestion, it would be to have the ascent stage engine hidden inside the descent stage.Of course I will try to make the entire set compact and (visually) structurally sound.Hrm... can you do a custom landing gear to give a wider stance? The stock gear leaves that looking a little top heavy...I thought of making custom landing legs, but the information about setting up the new landing legs in Unity is lacking.Did you improve the capsule hitbox? Cause now I can make the rover I wanted to do for a long time. Yes, I changed the colliders a little.Thanks, that will be really cool, also can i make a suggestion? a button at the right of the capsule that would be "circ at AP" (circularise at apoapsis) this could make mechjeb circularise at apoapsis without having to use the menu, just one button I do not approve (at least, not since recently) of fully automatic procedures such as these. You have “execute next node†and that, I believe, is sufficient. In any case, this request is best addressed to Mihara, not me, I do not program them.Will there be some kind of a manual for the IVA (like pdf with 2-4 pages of expanation which button does what and so on)? Honestly I feel lost every time I use ALCOR As soon as the cockpit layout is actually finalized, I’ll do that. Also Alexustas are you going to release that habitat moduleI actually started modding specifically to make those habitat modules, but it turned out to be much more complex than I anticipated. I needed to:* Learn to make the modules themselves, i.e. the models, the IVAs and props.* Learn how to do the colony infrastructure. (Energy, life support, communications, lighting)* Devise a delivery and assembly system (Skycranes, rovers)All of that required much more KSP modding experience than I had, and ALCOR and prior projects, as well as possibly later projects, are essentially training before the big final mission.

Z3R0_0NL1N3 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 What I would like from this mod is to just be stockalike and not have all the screens in IVA. I know that's exactly opposite of what most people like from this mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I've tried a few times lately to design another lander using stock parts, but I just can't stay away from using the ALCOR lander pod. Simply magnificent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helix935 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 am i the only one that seems to have a problem with the ALCOR capsule in that the hatch doesn't work? I mean really the IVA is incredible but i found this out after i perfected a Munar tug and landed at the neil armstrong memorial. Still an awesome pod but it was a very bad surprise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
