LOK test! Ships: Tantares, Launcher: NovaPunch2, Fairings: KWRocketry.

If Tantares pack was a girl I'd marry her!:blush:

:D

The best gallery I've seen, really made my day! (Really nice details around the LOK docking port)

Definitely going to do this myself when I have a chance (Got the SXT N1 on standby...)

Can I ask what graphics mods you are using?

Not to be rude, I really love Lack's work on SXT (and I'm personally thankful to him for helping me with Blender and Unity), but the engines on its N1 are kinda unbalanced, so I'd recommend the one from NovaPunch2 pack.

Hmm, really? I'll be sure to give it a try. I've only used the SXT one so far due to RAM issues.

@Beale

The "Farshot" has no ModuleGimbal, is that right?

But beside that, a really nice engine you made there. :)

Thanks :)

It does lack ModuleGimbal on purpose, though I'm open to feedback on this :)

I reckon that the engine should have had some drawback (In general it's better than the standard Tantares OMS in every way).

What do people think? Gimbal or no Gimbal?

No, I think everything is fine with it, gimbal isn't much needed for service modules. Also, I feel a bit greedy to ask, but docking ports with radial attachment will be great for building stations. :blush:

EVE + Astronomer's Pack v5 + Texture Replacer + Specialists Suits.

Thanks for the graphical configs :)

I imagine the ports (well, only the female one) will be made radial some point soon. The models need a "tube" that stretches from the bottom (like the stock ports), so that's what is holding me off at this point.

Also from the feedback I guess a Gimbal update isn't needed.

0.25 degree gimbal.

That's a new usage :D

Quick question: What are the things sticking out on the sides of farshot engine? And where are they located in the ship building menu?

They're the 500km Remote Tech 2 Antennas! :)

Oh man Beale, every time I start to think about role-playing a super modern/futuristic game of Kerbal you release something awesome that keeps me firmly rooted in the Soviet/Russia heyday of space travel.

Hobbyists today drive classic cars. Hobbyists tomorrow drive classic spaceships, role-play away!

Minor question (NO NEED to hurry & fix this at once):

Tantares_Orbital_A has no ModuleCommand for a reason?

The real Soyuz Orbital module can't operate by itself and it's depressurized after release. So I don't think it should to be honest. Shenzou orbital module can, on the other hand.

Hope this answers you :)

To Duna with LOK!

Who's the leader of the club that's made for you and me?

Very cool to see it taken a bit out of its comfort zone! :)

Or the PPTS.
PPTS Is a good Idea. I love it :)
Yeah a PPTS would be awesome :D

I see the enthusiasm, but the PPTS is not really workable in stock sizes (Including 1.875m) to be in proportion. This is why I've kinda held off it.

If someone can suggest me a way it can be done (in the right proportion whilst sticking to standard port sizes), then sure I'd like to make the PPTS.

Actually, it looks to be possible using a 2.5m base, could be done at some point!
