A little request, if there are small utility parts you would really like, I am collecting a list.

Alright, you invoked it :wink:

For one, I would like to see a bigger version of your rounded docking node (with the same size of docking ports) as counterpart of the Prichal Node Module.

And while I'm on it, though they might not be all that small or belong to the utility category, some Nauka parts would be cool. For example:

  • Radial/dorsal cooling panels
  • Nauka-style RCS with 2 nozzles for up/down and 3 angled ones for forward/sideways transition (when used in pairs)
  • Some science experiment resembling the Nauka airlock (warranty void if used as refrigerator)
  • Solar panels based on some of the designs for the Science and Power Module

Let's keep on topic friendos. :) 

Everytime I hear/read the word "friendo" it reminds me of "no country for old men" ("call it.... friendo!") and it gives me the creeps!

Pardon my ignorance,  but I must ask:  the OP now have a "march 18th" reference. What happens/happened then?

Hey,

I started testing the new rockets, they look very nice.  The new proton single engine upper stage does not seem to have enough control authority.  I cannot keep it facing the prograde after stage.

Did I mention that your skill is just getting better and better?

Thanks!

Re: Proton upper stage - it has been updated with stronger gimbals and thrust, hopefully that will fix it.
Unfortunately development is stalled until the new part talls (with Shuriken FX) are made available.

This mod at some point (I think it was version 7.0 or 8.0) had Connected Living Space compatibility patch. Is that still a thing? I've checked a few previous versions of this mod and was unable to find it...

There have been a few, but I was not maintaining them - original patch authors left and then it's a choice between picking them up myself or removing them (And to be straightforward that's an easy choice).

 

@CobaltWolf @Dark_Dragon26 @Abrecan Many thanks for the suggestions, good stuff!

 

No major progress has been made, although there was a basic idea for the 2nd stage engine.

I will look to have these in the next release.

Yes, I know its a 1.4 feature. But should the texture be included (with your permission ofc) in Tantares in Color for users in 1.3.1?

Sorry, I thought you mean it was already there. Yeah of course no problem to include it.

I'm really interested by these tank, i love to launch my sat with this small launcher like Cosmos3/C1 (i'm not sure about the name of the launcher), more size could be really useful.

@Beale Is that Zenit (or sea launch, that is still Zenit) rocket? So next will be Energia? :D

Sorry to dissapoint - it's actually the much smaller Kocmoc rocket:

But Energia is totally on the way.

Hello, I'm a native french speaker who really like Tantares mod, are you interested by a fr-fr localization file for 1.4 ?

Hello!

Your efforts would be much appreciated, as it is certainly no small task - there is over a 100 parts easily!
Please let me know if you need any assistance.

Meh, nevermind:D Just wrong gueses. And hope. LOT of hope! There are some mods with Energia, but your texturing - that amazing! So I really wait for your version. Even if you not plan to do it now. I will wait, till you got idea to make Energia. Even if it  far-far away from now.

Energia is directly in the works, don't worry - it just is a lot of work to go :) 

But, the Proton is really good practice!

2nd stage is looking great! I've done some testing with the new Proton and it's well balanced for 2.5x system, way better than the old version. With Blok D it's just powerful enough for a Zond circumlunar mission and it's LKO payload capacity is just right for Salyut/Mir core module.

Yea, that's also the case for BDB; 2.5x systems are better balanced part-wise.
