My pc is handling this better than my previous station of 1750 parts, about 5x as fast in the editor and about 2x as fast in game and that with 2x the part count!

HB Stratos Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 @Torn4dO what mods do you use? because I can´t see a big performance upgrade on my PC. Progress. Finaly managed to make the taifins not break on every flight, survives 16 g now. Took ages. Also did some work refinig looks and flight performance.

Before I updated I was on 1.3 and had SPH/VAB Extender and Vessel Mover, now on 1.6 I only have SPH/VAB Extender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Building it at 1:3 scale introduces some interesting challenges, I've been packing as much functionality in it as I can. I've finished the SIVB And reworked the command capsule The capsule probably took the most time to get functioning whilst also fitting a kerbal.

Kronus_Aerospace Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) SII is done, Part Count is beginning to get up there, 423. Aesthetically it's turning out better than I had hoped. Fitting in features like the interstage fairings is probably the single biggest contributer part count wise, All things considered I may make a "Lite" version of this once I finish it. Gifs are a nice way of reducing clutter, they look kinda crappy though.

Kronus_Aerospace Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Last Update before this is finished, Only a few details left to add (and testing). Thankfully Kronal Vessel works in 1.6, although I had to shop a bunch of images to get everything in one shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just have 4, 2.5 meter command pods just barely clipping through the fairing, with all the unimportant bits hidden by radiators. That one detail alone represents 5% of the craft's entire weight. Screw efficiency. Edited January 4, 2019 by Kronus_Aerospace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sturmhauke Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I appreciate these kinds of builds as pieces of art, but I don't have the patience (or the computing power) to do them myself. My potato laptop starts to have trouble around 4-500 parts. My Jool-5 ship had around 700 at launch I think; I had to turn a bunch of settings down. 35 minutes ago, Phantomic said: fuselage is done, anyone got an idea yet? it's about time to hand it over to holiday for wings and engines Is it a balsa birb?

I love the flags and the detail you put into the S-IC and S-II with the corrugation between the fuel tanks where they would have been on the actual Saturn V, is that done by radiators?
