VR_Dev Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I've built this from scratch like 10 times now. It really is almost done, just trying to squeeze out performance. I think the bottom is pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurotenshi Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Select root is only useful in the editor. Once you launch, the game will pick a command module (crewed over unmanned).Maybe place a docking port somewhere that isn't angled, then add an action group with "control from here'. Hit that before launch and voila, no more skewed navball.I used that on my Soyuz, Orion and Uriel, as they all have tilted command pods. You can also do it with probe cores, but you have to select them manually, since they don't have a "control from here" option in the action groups menu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice and smooth. Do the cargo bays clip into the rest of the craft at all? It always irks me when it does that, and it restricts how I build my crafts with cargo bays.

Rakaydos Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Prototyping for a Mk 3 cargo lifter, based on some of my earlier Mk2 doubehull designs.I'm aware that a biplane design is less efficent- however, it works for my other designs, and I'm trying to maintain a similar form factor and flight characteristics to them:Since I cant inline clampotron under a Mk3 cargo bay, however, I've added a nose docking port instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Space Cowboy Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Almost there. I did drop one orange tank off in orbit, but I had accidentally burned a bit of it's fuel thru use of bi propellant steering thrusters.Latest issue, fuel routing has gone nuts thru various unknown paths likely the wing panels.I am not in control of fuel routing or even fuel burning. I will have to isolate everything and run hoses manually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zekes Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 After building the largest KSP shuttle ever, i decided to try going the other way - and it's really hard. This was a complete failure - 50% of the launches flipped out, 25% had too little thrust, 25% the kerbal fell out midflight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
