Extending everything at once

[Macko939]

Hi

Is it possible to assign different components in my satellite to extend/compact at once?

Basically, I have a satellite and I want my antennas to open at the same time, and then I want to have option to open all the solar panels at once too.

Is it possible to do?

And 1 more thing, my satellite is in the space already, so I can't reassembly it.

You could see if this still works

I will have a look now, thanks man

@EDIT

I have 2 more questions.

1. Why everything I try to post has to be accepted by a mod first? Is it permanent?

2. Without going onto geostationary orbit, is it possible to make my satellite always face kerbin with the antennas?

You are new, so its only the first 5 posts. As far as always having antenna point toward kerb in, that's not necessary at all, they just have to be on.

The action group plugin worked, thank you very much sal_vager.

And I don't really need the antennas to point at kerbin, I wanted to do it just for the sake of it so my satellite would actually look like a comsat.

Due to physics, you can't make a satellite always face Kerbin unless you're constantly flying it (everything flies inertially). This is different than geostationary, which will keep the satellite over a specific point on the ground.

That being said, as Taki pointed out, the game doesn't require you to constantly point the antenna in a particular direction.

Congrats on making the 10,000,000 post Claw!!

We noticed it was getting close and then passed so I thought I'd track it down!! O.O wonder if you should win a prize...

Awesome, I didn't notice! :
