Thanks Albert! That helped a lot. One more question (sorry) :S I can grab the velcro bags and the PRTs, but I can't fill up the bags with resources and the only thing that goes into the PRTs is water. How to fix?

EDIT: OK, never mind. I found the controls in the action groups tab. :S Thanks for the help

Will you be including ones that contain, say lf, ox, xenon, or batteries? Maybe some ones that are radioactive and glow for RTG status.
Carrying LF/Ox in a zip-up bag seems like a terrible idea.

I use the HexCans for this purpose.

I am sure Jeb would think this is a perfectly acceptable practice. :D

I have to agree With Roxette :P

Intentional Double Post:

Here you go, there are a lot of mistakes on my quick guide, I am truly sorry.

Here is the No-MFT version.

I also tried to add a description. Just see if it's lame enough. :)

Might want to look at it also Albert, Something is better than nothing :P

Do you realize these will never be released?

... Have I made my point?

CTB might have a release soon without the MFT but with an other plugin.

Edit: What would you guys prefer a non-MFT version; another plugin or separate parts?

Welcome.

I have a problem. Mod is installed correctly. Containers can be installed but only works PRT and may be in it just water. I can change the texture but it does not work.

Let's do something to be able to edit all possible substances?

Looking good. Especially balloons. But I would like to give advice on their colors scheme: Oxigen - Light blue or skyblue (like oxidizer currently); CO2 - is ok; Water - is ok; Waste water - may be toxic green; Liquid fuel - must be more red (like Firetrucks); Oxidizer - must be dark blue but not very dark; Monopropellen - is good, but for matching design is good to be more darken. Green color is for Food.

European standard for pipelines have this colors: Gases, Fire Fightings, Other liquids, Airs, Waters, Combustible liquids, Acids and Alkalis, Steams. Recommend sticking to this standard, but given the color-coded subsections. As a result, the marking shall consist of a primary color and complementary color stripe. That is, the style of the cylinders can be left as he is, but to the color from top and bottom need to add a strip at a distance of the width of the strip itself or half.

In accordance with European color codes and its subdivision color-codes, we get something like this: Oxygen -strip, CO2 - strip, Water - strip, Waste water - strip, Liquid fuel - strip, Oxidizer - strip, Monoprpellen - strip, Food - strip.

Russian standard for pipelines have this colors: Waters, Steams, Airs, Combustible and non-combustible Gases, Acids, Alkalis, Combustible and non-combustible liquids, Other substances (like pudres, gels, pulps)

Also I sugest to see this wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottled_gas but russian version have colors schemes...

Another Italian standard http://www.siad.com/russia/docs/colore_bombole_gas_industriali_uk.pdf

Well, we're not only basing on real-life, KSP customs/standards too! Haha Though

Combustible and non-combustible Gases really burnt my eye there.

Since MF conflicted with my PP liquid fuel tanks I decided to create my own subset of cargo bags (I don't want or need the 49 possible combinations Albert mentioned) which don't require MF.

Important: I took Albert's models and blackheart's textures, messed around with them (most probably to the worse) but did not created anything myself, all credits to them for their amazing work! @both of you: if you don't want to see my version here tell me and I'll remove the link asap!

What I did:

  • made all parts half the size and half capacity (all have 125 for simplicity)
  • tanks contain only one resource (both tanks have the same texture and content)
  • if there is a waste resource available (e.g. Food and Waste) the tank can hold that too (like the other TACLS containers)
  • made the tanks more colorful because Jeb told me he could find them easier under his bed that way

There is only a small subset available (separate parts):

  • Food Bag
  • Water Bag
  • Oxygen Tank
  • Fuel Tank (contains LiquidFuel and Oxizider in the proper 9:11 ratio)
  • MP Tank

If anybody wants to look at the parts: Download

No problem.

How about, for a non-MFT version, the PRT gets split into a tank holder part and 7 different types of tanks?

Thanks!

I suppose you are thinking about something like the KAS container holder? Sounds awesome!

So, I just thought I would share a thing I am doing with these excellent parts. I am welding together a utility module which I will use on both my minmus base and orbital station for storing life support supplies.
