[Parts] [0.25] Cars n Stuffs - Dev Thread and Soon to be more! [DOWNLOAD!]

[Night Lone]

Hi Everyone! I have finally decided to actually post a mod after using many mods on here. This will be my primary dev thread, and I will post any projects I'll release (or plan to) here.

The first mod you guys can look forward to is a Car mod, which the idea came from AlphaAsh's Rovers and Roadsters . Long story short: I was using his mod and the first thing I thought was: They need more cars in KSP. So here we are! Presenting:

Cars n Stuffs:

Parts are from Night Lone. All Rights Reserved to their respective owners. Everything else in this picture, is of course, from Squad.

Update: too many updates

I have around 10+ car pieces as well to make standard cars, limos, trucks, and SUV's as well, Progress is being Made!!

I think I'm happy with most of the textures. Just going to be tweaking here and there.

Pricing/career mode stuffs not done!

This is WIP!!

Thank you

There is a lack of space base parts I have found...That or I'm not looking hard enough...So, I am also going to build some Space Base/Station parts for myself and all who wish it. Below is my wish list of what I'll be making for the Space Base/Station parts, and the list for the car parts I need to do. Suggestions are welcomed!

How Cars work.

There is an electrical generator in the hood. Right-click and turn it on. You now have power!

Later on I'll have LiquidFuel turn into electricity by burning it off.

Parts are 100% compatible with AlphaAsh's parts. In fact, some of my test vehicles use them.

Looking for testers!

There are quite a few station part mods, but the more the merrier. Especially with that wardroom and exercise room planned--those would be nice additions to my own stations!

[AlphaAsh]

I fully endorse this project. 10 out of 10 would drive-thru again.

There are quite a few station part mods, but the more the merrier. ...

Well, my top priority when it comes down to the station parts is this: have it able to land on a planet, so it can act as a base. It's more of base parts really, but can double as space station. Also, unlike stock and many other mods (that I've found, correct me if I'm wrong) who have their station parts vertical, my parts will be like FusTek, with a horizontal layout. I believe FusTek is the only one with this layout, and that layout itself is nice to make space bases out of, for me anyhow. I will also include parts that I haven't found before, like the inline RCS thruster + tank; and the LFO equivalent. The crew compartment will be small, and really there for kerbals to sleep in.

Long story short:

My design is meant to only hold [# of crew quarters]* 2 or [# of Wardrooms]*6 Kerbals, whichever is less, unless the kerbals are sharing beds...or at least sleeping areas...

I may also have a service part for all you LS users. But first, Car parts. Then all the above station parts (that don't need animation). Then figure out Module Manager so it can put enough LS in if you have TACLS or ECLSS or Snacks!

Also, one last thing before I go and help fix my neighbour's printer, I want to make this part mod(s) simple, small, and lightweight. I don't care if it's a "must have" mod (like Universal Storage is to me ) but I do care that it's light enough that, if you want to try it, and you have 30 other part mods, mine won't make your computer cry (more)

I fully endorse this project. 10 out of 10 would drive-thru again.

Thanks!

Saturday/Sunday Update:

After getting mad and almost rage quit (Temper temper Night Lone!) I've finally got the part to act how I want it. Looks ugly but meh.

Tomorrow I'll try to get more parts done, NOW I know what I'm doing!

The car parts will probably be quick and ugly. Though I will try to have some textures that aren't going to hurt one eyes too much.

Thanks for the support for those who gave it. And for anyone who has stockalike texture knowledge, please share!! (before I decide ripping stocks textures is a smart idea *looks at some modders* )

[Night Lone]

Download is available! Only 6 parts so far, 2 Wheels (one is better used for AlphaAsh's mod); and everything you see in the first picture of the album[minus the Kerbal]!

Any suggestions? Feedback? etc are welcome!

Jerks are not welcome though, so bug off!

ToDo: Pricing and more career stuff. Everything is found in structural.

Please have fun!!

[AlphaAsh]

Sort ya licence out chap before the moderators eat you

[Night Lone]

Whoops! I put it in the download and forgot to mention it here! Thanks!

[AlphaAsh]

The stunts I can pull off with these wheels.... So much fun!

[Night Lone]

Hint: hood contains generator for the wheels

Also: Awesome car, at first I thought "Those aren't my parts are they?"

[akron]

Part packs like these are cool. Although I don't really like having too many parts to a simple mod if it can be helped.

[Night Lone]

Well right now the Car pack has only 5 parts (models, 6 parts really cause of the bigger wheel meant for AlphaAsh's mod) It's simple easy, and modular. I really don't like packs that have an "all in one" solution. The part number increases to much more than 10 if you use AlphaAsh's mod. I'll be getting the 5 parts I already have ready for career mode before I move on for the truck and SUV parts.

Also, another option is: If ya don't like the part, but like other parts, then delete the part you don't like!

[Night Lone]

Saturday Update!

Well, I'm not too sure if this car mod is getting the attention I was hoping. So I'll pause work on it. I have made it career friendly, so it should all work well The textures are upgraded, so that they're more cleaner and hopefully nicer.

So now, I'm going to be working on the space-base/station mod, hopefully get some fun and good stuff.

Any Suggestions for Space? ^.^
