Sorry if I’m out of the loop here, but is it just me, or is the N1 extremely overpowered, even for a JNSQ mission to the Mun?

It's very old (2016), so doesn't have the kind of balancing I would give today unfortunately.

Currently in early stages (pre-production I guess) of re-doing this. but got a few decisions on how to make the most of it (One idea is to use 100PPM textures just to make it more manageable).

Right now the N1 is a little smaller than it should be, but too powerful

but the old size matches up perfectly with the l3 stack...

I think it still should be, back to 1.7 or so working maybe.

More the point is, don't use it in 1.10 :P

Sincere question, what exactly broke in 1.10? I'm still 1.8.1, so i'm kind of out of the loop.

Bigger, better, faster, stronger.

Still can't make it out, is the top 0.625m?

The top of what ? The VA capsule ?

The main thing broken is the fairings - though there is a fix on the horizon.

Just have to wait for the next 1.10.X patch.

I'm currently testing the VA in 1.10, and it does all work mostly as you may expect, just with broken procedural fairings.

Will stockalike Martian moons ever be updated? I came across it while searching for planet packs and I found it interesting.

If Kopernicus gets into a nice stable state with the latest updates I may pick it back up again.
I actually made way more than was ever released, full scatter support,  better biome maps, better terrain and colour maps.

My PTK-S atop an Angara 1.5.

The rocket was a little noodly on the ascent. Using the grey Tantares 1.5 D tank instead of 2 white C tanks, while less authentic, works better. The R-01209 engine is very quiet compared to other engines. I needed to use both an Alnair LES B and an A to be able to pad abort the dual capsules. It might help to have attachment nodes on the tops of the LES to account for that. I don't understand why the attachment node for the short LES A is set 0.6 meters away from the base.
