Looking good, as always! What is the docking port opposite the Orion in the pictures meant for?

I have an odd fetish for adding variously coloured Orion dock ports to habitat modules. Although I think the one on the solar array end is a bit silly. I think it would be nicer to have some kind of truss there and attach the arrays to that.

Okay! Congradulations, you got this far down the page, now what?

I think we're about ready to go beta. Last thing to do is finish texturing the DCSS / IUS upper stage which you see tucked away on the SLS block I. Also I want to update all the engine effects and sounds and remove some parts clutter but otherwise I think were in great shape.

I really like the look of the truss, Probably some of the nicest textures; Simple and gorgeous.

I think you've addressed this already, but do you plan on having integration with Career mode? If so, does your team plan on adding Chaka Contracts?

I have pledged career mode compatibility in the next version, however because I am very sandbox focused, I would like to assemble a team of volunteers to add more detail and make contracts. I think that would be fun.

That sounds exciting! Can't wait to see where this goes! P.S. I like writing. ;)

For the Altair lander stage if you still want to use it here are some new CleverBobCat.dll https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/72893034/CleverBobCat%20-%2064bit.zip and 32bit https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/72893034/CleverBobCat%20-%2032bit.zip.

That's a good idea. It does actually work with the old one by pressing the G key to lower the gear, but we should update the dll for sure.

Oh man my excitement intensifies with every update you post.

:P

How does the transfer stage handle with the Orion hanging off the side?

That Orion most certainly departs before injection burn. It's there to deliver the crew.

I think so. I'l make you a deal: Wherever it's at in one week, I'll stop and release the product. That way I don't get distracted by some new idea :)

Well no one is going to ask so, I will when you say stop what does that mean ? no more updates too ? that it's done deal ? As much as, I would like to play with the new parts you are showing, I still hope there is more to come :)

Oh no I mean stop developing the next update and give you guys a chance to have a download and give feedback... remember we're still talking about a beta it's not even going to the release thread yet... my goodness there is so much more we can do in the future.
