[WIP][0.90?] PlanetFactory CE

Thanks for the well-wishes.

Well, I've gotten a trivial plugin to compile and run successfully, so that's the annoying infrastructural aspects out of the way. (And oddly it was way less of a fuss than the time I tried just making a new part model and had to mess around with Unity and blender for... too long.)

I'm gathering that backward compatability with existing planet packs would be something important to shoot for. I will try keep that in mind. Thanks.

I'm stuck at the moment, I don't know whether to ditch the system for Ovenproofmars due to the endless glitches that I have come across or just stay there until it is fixed.

Sharing is caring, you lose nothing by releasing.

If you want to get rid of all the tears, just add a big red warning saying it has known bugs and .... (nice censorship Squad) anyone that ignores that message.

Okay, so I don't anticipate having any time to work on this tomorrow, but I think I can do this project starting Thursday. Thinking of naming it Kerbig after the astronomer George Herbig, any other ideas before I've typed "Kerbig" too many times to rename it?

Thanks again for your input. I'll start a new thread for its development Thursday if nothing comes up.

How about Kopernicus or Kepler?

Kopernicus sounds promissing.

Update: I had some stuff come up today and didn't get to do much on this; will work on it tomorrow

I have heard that none of the Planet Factory stars function with solar panels? Would it not make sense to locate that code with in the default star config file and use it in the stars for Planet Factory?

Even if anyone here can fix it, the license doesn't allow sharing of modified code. You can use StarSystems for functional stars.

My plugin: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/68619-Plugin-WIP-KittopiaTech-Ingame-Terraforming-Tools-V0-174 , Contains a feature that adds the necessary fixes to stars. The only downside is that it is a requirement for the star "fix" to persist. It has slightly more functionality over StarSystems, but is much more complex and confusing. So, for your standard scenario: StarSystems is a great "star fixer", but for binary+ stars, with full custom colours, My plugin helps.

Hmm... Well it seems I was partially incorrect. Seems to be an issue with Hyperedit and PF not cooperating. This and HE seem to work fine on their own, but PF seems to be provoking Hyperedit into doing some rather unusual things, like creating a transparent overlay over the menu for some reason until the game is restarted. Here's a log if still interested. Right at 18:32:45.051 is where it happens (not sure WHAT exactly, but there it is).

I had the same problem but with Mechjeb2 and a ton of other mods, it worked fine once I deleted Mechjeb2. Although right now I'm making nothing more than a retextured, Minmus and as soon as I orbited it it turned into Minmus....

So i started messing around with this mod a little. Is there any way to vary the size of a Gas Giant or will they all be 6000 km Giants? PQS radius is not very liked by Jool Template. Is there a Sentar Template or anything to get a bigger Gas Giant?

Gas giants do not have PQS. You only need to change their radius. I edited Dooz's Kaiser gas giant to be 1750 km...

Are you using any other mods or attempted to edit cfg files I would use a CLEAN install nothing else just to keep in mind this mod is Mildly outdated..
