[1.12.x] Freight Transport Technologies [v0.6.0]

[Donziboy2]

Decided to try out some Infernal Robotics docking washers for flight control, worked pretty well until I disabled RCS. Nose pitched up and FAR said "uh no way dude" and broke my craft in half. The RCS blocks eat a crapton of fuel btw:/ Wish we had some way to switch from Mono to compressed ATM when its available. I know B9 has compressed air thrusters that use intake air.

Funny you should say that... I was going to add an option for compressed atmosphere for the RCS

Dude, could you include your VTOL-Fan-craft in the download? I'm kinda too stupid to build a balanced VTOL like that

[dzikakulka]

I think a "classic" engine (horizontal in SPH) with same weight and profile as Honeybadger command module would help balancing a lot. Right now It's pretty hard to keep balance cause you can't really stick to full symmetry. I'm currently experimenting with modified stock parts but I'm no good at modelling so it aint better than anyone could do

I saw your "forum title" a while ago and loved it

And now, I had scrolled down a little and just saw your "location" and was like "is that a Dune reference?"

God I have to read that again... and buy the last 1-2 book(s) I'm missing.

I think that I will chalk this up as a success!

What mod is that control arm from?

[brian6712]

Success! No bugs to report, just the clipping from the cargo doors that you already know about. Amazing mod yet again!

If you like audiobooks try out the Audio Renaissance ones from Audible. Unabridged with a large cast, best audio version of DUNE ever!! I have read all the books so many time lol, and now I can listen to them whilst wandering around duna, needs sandworms though !!!

Yet another awesome Roverdude-mod Can't wait for the RC :)

Keep it up.

Although I think at some point we'll have to start paying you for all that glorious content you keep creating.

This one is pretty much released at this point - I do the whole 'release early and iterate' thing. Though it's getting another model pass but nothing breaking (then just more content). Oh... and there's a 'buy me coffee and beer' paypal link on the USI Colonization thread It's absolutely not required but is hugely appreciated

Do you take Bitcoin RoverDude ? If not you should

[brian6712]

With all of the nifty resources your FTT has I decided to make a Karbonite mining/Airplane refueler and when I go to refuel my plane my frame rate drops to almost zero and I get a visit from maybe one of the Kraken's little kids. I know you want some kind of list to look at in order to see the problem but I can't remember what it was called. Here is the debug from the event and you can see that it saying I have an interstellar part malfunctioning but I don't have any KSPI parts on anything. It also says I have a resource problem and thats why I thought i would see what you thought. If this isn't enough info let me know what you need and i will get it for you ASAP. Thanks a ton for all that you do!!!

Ok! Let's start with versions, and let me know which USI ones you have and if you have ART - thanks

[brian6712]

Ok! Let's start with versions, and let me know which USI ones you have and if you have ART - thanks

KSP .24.2

MKS .20.6 W/Karbonite and CRP bundled

KAS .4.7 with .24.2 configs

KSPI Lite

EL with Karbonite conversion

Module Manager 2.3.3

oh and FTT.1.1

Everything is up to date as far as I can see. I just tried it with another miner with karbonite only parts and it worked great.

If you need anything else just let me know. Thank you

Remove your mods. Start clean, and begin with a new MKS install, then add the rest in bit by bit. My suspicion is the EL integration based on when you downloaded it, but easier to just do it one mod at a time (trust me, I do this all the time when my own install breaks).

Heya, thanks To be honest I will probably move them into the same (later) node, primarily because these guys are part of a larger parts set and are the entry level ones

[goldenpsp]

IMO pretty much a horrible idea. The honeybadger parts are pretty much designed to work together. You really aren't going to use these parts much with stock parts (other than engines and maybe wheels etc). So to have the parts spread over multiple nodes only serves to be frustrating. It would be like spreading the packrat rover parts all over the tech tree, since you can't really build it until you have all the pieces unlocked.

Ok I will try that, is there any certain order I should go by after installing MKS?

Usual bets on conflicts (just based on history, normally with bad/old versions): KSPI, ATM, Texture Replacer, the Karbonite->EL mod, TweakScale, ATM

Mhm, I just noticed that you didn't include Connected Living Space-Support this time :-/ Are you planning to add this in the future (like in your other mods)? If not I will have to add it myself, which is of course no problem, this is thankfully a rather slim, yet versatile mod. But it would be nice to know if it's worth investing the time or if it's redundant since you'll be adding it anyways.
