[0.21][Parts Pack]Deep Space Mission Pack - Now open source!

[Lazurkri]

Needs to be updated to work with .15.2

[Kreuzung]

No doesn\'t. Lazurki probably needs the newest plugin.

(Sorry if that sounds a bit offensive, I like to do this)

Quick update:

I remodeled the pod and increased the diameter of all parts form 1.5m to 2m for better compatibility with other mods and for more 'big ship for long range' look. I love the new model format, finally we can have moving centrifuges. Here\'s an early shot, don\'t mind the lighting glitch at the pod, I\'ll fix it before the release.

[Kreuzung]

I hope you\'ll keep the old one too, I loved the large windows.

I don\'t know if scaling makes sense at this point, I\'d wait for .16, althrough I\'ve planned to make some 5m parts then (if I ever manage to model something), so they whould fit to this.

I\'m cutting the old pod in half, to be honest it was too big for a pod, so from now you\'ll have a pod, and other habitation modules, like the big windowed aft section of the old pod, that way you have much more freedom when designing the ship. Also it\'ll get even better later on when interiors are in game, that way you can configure the layout of the ship.

No, I meant the 4x cockpit window. Theses small ones are cool too, but they have the color of my favorite water texture from another game ;P Whould it be possible to make all windows and the solar panel reflect light?

[Rocketscienist]

He like it really+. I´m writing a book at the moment and your things looks nearly like my Spaceship Zeus I 8) 8) 8) 8)

[Kreuzung]

Well, this seems to be based on two sci-fi films called 'Mission to Mars' and '2001: A Space Odyssey', so maybe you are just stealing ;P

[Rocketscienist]

Not really!!! The story is totally different, but secret ;P. I will give it to you kreuzung to say what you think, maybe !

[noda1212]

Do you have my plugin? (Xenolith link in sig).

However, I can announce you that I removed the solar panels for the next version.

Yes, removed and I\'m not insane. I made new ones and of course I will remove new config files for this to stay playable.

I\'m confused, are you adding NEW solar panels or taking them away for good? I love the solar panels, also, you cant really have a deep space mission without a source of unlimited energy. PLEASE add them back in, if not it will ruin them mod for me

[Kreuzung]

That was more a code view. The solar panels are still useable, there is a new .cfg file I posted in here, post is from June 12, 2012, 01:02:44 AM.

Hello. I love your mod, one of my favorites. Mostly for the Ion engine, battery, and solar panel. Now I\'m not sure if you are aware of this rather important bug. Sometimes, not all the time, while the Ion Engine is running, the battery will NEVER work again. Now its odd because it stays attached to the ship, but the icon for the battery on the staging disappears and the Ion Engine stops working because of no power. I know its attached to the ship still because it does not appear as debris in the world map and will not detach from the ship. I find this bug to be annoying whenever im in VERY deep space. as in out to the mars solar orbital ring IRL. Suddenly the enignes stops and all the batterys bug out. Plrease fix this you would get many [glow=indigo,2,300]props[/glow] from me 8)

[Kreuzung]

Will be fixed in the next plugin version. However, it seems to delete ships with a battery, even a working one. ;P

[Rs2k]

The ion engines, batteries, and solar pannels do not work in 15.2, how do I get them to work? I\'ve gone back through the earlier posts but it\'s not clear.

I have, as far as I know, the latest electrical addon here: http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=11402.0

and, as far as I know, the latest DSM addon here: http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=8363.0

Still not working.

[Kreuzung]

You\'re missing MuMechLib http://svn.mumech.com/KSP/trunk/Releases/MuMechLib.dll

[Rs2k]

Thanks, that did the trick. It looks like I was using the newest version of Mechjeb which is not compatible.

[Kreuzung]

MechJeb: 1.8.4

Fixed Camera: 1.8.4.1

Confusing isn\'t it? Good thing that KSP .16 won\'t force exact dependency anymore, so this won\'t be a problem then.

[Pluto100]

Amazing parts! Good job!

[tijn433]

a couple parts dont work like the battery and a engine :/

[Kreuzung]

You need my plugin and a config file I posted some pages ago.

[Razordraac]

I swear the first pic looked like the ship from Mission To Mars... Am I right?

[Kreuzung]

The whole pack is more or less based on it AFAIK.

And please, please optimize these parts. They seem to take far more memory than similar ones for some reason.

[Rocketscienist]

When there will be an update of this awesome stuff?

[Razordraac]

The whole pack is more or less based on it AFAIK.

That\'s a damn good movie...

[bebullock]

Can\'t use the batterys? >
