Markus Reese Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Amazing so far, been experimenting with the powertech stuff. Slight issue I am having, not sure if I am missing a part or is due to it being on my main mod version. Anyways, the docking nodes, I cannot seem to get them to connect to my main rocket during VAB construction. Am I missing a part?Edit: Found out oops. I thought the W was to actually dock parts together XD. Well, working now, alas my idea of sending the rocket up in parts wont work without ability to actually dock. Is that possible at all or no?

Unfortunately 90% of the parts in that mod are not working, they show up in the editor as a bluish-grey and say 'this part is not available for this version of the game' or something like thatThe submod made by Maraz?Both plugins have been updated since it was made, and the config files have to be redone.

Is that possible at all or no?unfortunately docking isn\'t going to be implemented until after .16, until then docking is not exactly possible.but! if you download the robotics mod(the one with hinges and all that other stuff) I\'m pretty sure you can make some sort 'docking claw' that you can use to grab other ships when rendezvoused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markus Reese Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Yeah, I did a bit more research and saw that was possible and played with the claws, but not the same. I have a design philosophy that on launch, must be aerodynamic and fitting. So have shroud covers, etc. I have set up some pretty wild submodules, but for me to really enjoy this, I cannot wait until docking!Docking, IAV and interplanetary, I will be able to do some wild stuff! Carrying up boosters, ftw! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wishi Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Seems not quite to run with version 0.16. Some pannels I can not select. Does anyone have any idea or have I installed the plugin wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synthesis Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Since Kosmo/Angara is probably my favorite mod pack. I really, really hope Normak considers releasing a new 3-man command module that is scaled to 1.75, along with rescaled Angara tanks/engines etc. It might be a dream, of course, but I can dream. The space station parts, on the other hand, are probably well scaled, though they\'re still cosmetic for the most part (like all SS parts) until IVA mechanics are implemented, I think.

CardBoardBoxProcessor Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 you can resize them yourself by adding 2.5 to the scale i think and multiplying the node attach points by 2.5 currently my other project calls though. However if someone can texture for KOSMOS could easily make the models for it. but textures i cannot do. and I don\'t want to make more mediocre parts.

Lazurkri Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Hmmn, KSP now has become at least 50% more fun with EVAs... no wait, make that five HUNDRED percent more! IVA\'s will make that over five thousand ( and yes, feel free to scream it like in Dragon Ball) percent!So, when can we expect the Kosmos solar panels to work for the various other stuff like Zoxygen? BTW, I CAN use the current Kosmos parts with .16 right? they\'ll just be undersized? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zenton8787 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Does anyone know, namely the modders, if the fuel tank parts in this or any mod need to be recalculated due to the new way that fuel tanks work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
