A Proper Space Shuttle Mod?


Recommended Posts

Is there anyone working on or considering work on a proper Space Shuttle Mod? I find it strange that The Space Shuttle is extremely underrepresented in the KSP community. Yes I am fully aware of the Tiberion Shuttles and KSO. Both are a lot of fun and I have used them extensively over my tenure playing KSP. However a proper Space Shuttle Mod does not really exist anymore. I am fully aware of the Component Space Shuttle mod. I have also used it quite a bit and that has what inspired me to write this post. It was such an exquisite mod but it is growing older and older with each update along with its dependences. Many of its dependences have even become outdated. Modders and users have taken up maintaing it but it just seems that it is destined to die like its real life counterpart. I mean there are so many extremely popular mods out there that represent real life rockets and ships, Soyuz, Skylab, Saturn V, Gemini, Mercury, Proton, Dragon, etc. I mean there are mods that exist for all of the real life probes and rovers, but something perfectly suited for KSP is not represented. I mean the Space Shuttle is a rocket and a plane, so much can be done with a proper space shuttle mod. I mean we also have countless mods for Space Station building wouldn't a shuttle be a great addition to space station construction? I am not a modder, I wish I was. If i possessed the skills I would have made a space shuttle mod a long time ago. I even downloaded blender thinking I could give it a go. I opened up the software cried and decided I would leave the modding to the people who are good at it. Anyway I am just looking for a good realistic Shuttle Mod. Anyone willing to give it a go?

Next version the Mk3 fuselage system is being updated and I think increased in size as well. This will allow much better stock space shuttles.

Hopefully a high gimbal engine is also added next version.

I get that, and I am sure it will be cool and all. But I am looking for a high fidelity STS mod.
