TicTacToe! Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 ... We will need to see if these planets have new results for the science experiments.WE MUST MAKE THE CROWD-SOURCED SCIENCE PROJECT AWARE OF THIS.Good shout. Once this finds them, we will be overpowered with experiments. *Retreats to evil lair* Send the messengers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhaosCorp Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 I have 8 small mapping probes hooked to a MASSIVE transfer craft orbiting Kerbin at 700km....ready to go explore the closest of the new planets. At least I think its ready....transfer stage has a bit over 18k Dv, and each probe has another 1150 Dv and airbrakes for extreme aerobraking/capturing.

Gojira Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Why do the moons and planet have the same relative appearance and descriptions as Jool and its moons in the map view and the tracking station? Same with Minmus and Inaccessible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vulkan Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 I made a picture....What's that greyish planet with the highly eliptical orbit? I seem not to have it...I also have the others using stock textures on Linux but that's already been mentioned elsewhere several times so I'm hopeful that it will be patched relatively soon for that.

LaydeeDem Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Why can't Kragrathea be a normal addon author and just release the source code like he's supposed to? Instead the thread gets locked for a completely avoidable reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sumghai Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Why can't Kragrathea be a normal addon author and just release the source code like he's supposed to? Instead the thread gets locked for a completely avoidable reason.Based on the snafu prior to his exodus, I suspect the planets were actually redistributed SQUAD assets - a number of folks who use the SCANSat plugin found that Sentar was a copy of Jool with minor cosmetic surgery, hence the borked biome / terrain maps.

spacex34 Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 They copied the files in the source code or uses the files only ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhaosCorp Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 (edited) I must say...really really disappointed.Don't get me wrong, the planets and moons look great, and while I'm not totally fond of all the orbits, I think over all it really added alot. But then all this.....What in the hell is the point of releasing a mod that's gonna get pulled right away? Based on the 4 names in the readme...well, yall knew damn well this was gonna happen. This is not G-Mod you four! The KSP modding community (for the most part) is about gameplay enrichment.. -snip-And the absence of any of those 4 in this thread since the release thread was closed kinda makes me lean toward thinking this is not, by Squads standards, a legit addon. Its either that or ego keeping the source from being made available. The addon/plugin rules are there for a reason...not only end user protection, but it forces a bit of standards...Whatever the actual case may be, I for one will be uninstalling PlanetFactory....and I would suggest anyone who supports Squad and the part of the modding community that cares more about enriching the game rather than being center of attention should do the same....Was really excited about this one too...

I have no control whatsoever over what Krag does. I've never seen the source for the mod myself. Krag has stated on reddit (and over private e-mail to me) that the source will be released this weekend when he has time to clean it up. He also (and this has nothing to do with e-peen) did legitimately want people to be able to experience the add-on -- as he envisioned and developed it for months -- before it gets chopped up and modded into dozens of slightly different solar systems (a few of which, I'm sure, will be incredible.) Patience. I'm assuming you have the mod and are able to play with it. Just enjoy it for a few days. I've spent weeks with it and haven't exhausted my enjoyment.EDIT: God. What am I doing? I want no part of contentiousness over this mod; I beta tested it and kept the community updated because I thought others would enjoy it. I'm done here. I'm happy to retreat back the The Science Labs and geek out over the latest rocket launch (Soyuz TMA 11M just launched for the ISS!)

I only glanced at the thread since I knew what was in it (made mention of the SCANsat support) so I didn't notice the license/source issue. As for the mod I gave it last minute testing and I too didn't have the source code. Didn't prevent me from digging nonetheless.

I've spent weeks with it and haven't exhausted my enjoyment.Has everything to do with it from where I'm sitting. You honestly think if the source was posted the same time as the release thread things would have gone down any different as far as people using what was created? Im guessing no, only thing that would have been different is the thread wouldn't be locked...And even if that did legitimize it...is Krag's ego really so bloated as to think the rules don't apply...just because he/she wanted it to be seen this way first...you been around long enough to know how this game is playedMaybe when a legit version is posted and the 'look at me Im great' hype has calmed down Ill reconsider...
