Beale Posted September 28 Author Share Posted September 28 So it probably would not have such shielding, as LMO is "only" 3.4km/s So just some reduced heat proofed underside on the body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceFace545 Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 If possible a breakout panel on the MAV section would be cool to vent exhaust fumes. Or just burn into the fuselage, that might be a bit more soviet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm going to try and do that somehow, the original design has a second set of cargo bay doors in the heatshield, but... well I'm treating the original design as more of a first draft since it has a lot of really weird stuff. Will see if something nice middle ground can be had. Edited October 4 by Beale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion 1 Posted October 6 Share Posted October 6 Off topic, but I was wondering if the old Soviet blue and white style Soyuz parts have been deleted. I've been scared to update my version of Tantares because I don't want to lose them, do they still exist in the latest version? If I checked for myself I'm just worried that I won't be able to access any of the craft files I've made with them (uninstalling a mod can sometimes do that, even if you reinstall it, because ksp is weird sometimes).

I will have to check when I get home but I think Intercolor covers that now. If you want to test updating your mods you may want to create a copy of your game directory and only update the mods on the copy, that way only the copy will break if you have an issue.
