[1.1.x] KSPX - Kerbal Stock Part eXpansion mod reposted v0.2.10.1 | 20/4/16

[Bomoo]

Agreed. Even if the "stock" option weren't inferior (and a little out of place cosmetically), I really don't see why you'd need to remove the KSPX's.

Having more options is a good thing regardless of which you prefer. There's three or four different LES out there as far as I'm aware, and I'm happy for folks to take the one they like using and delete the others.

Does this work with 0.24.2? (Is it balanced, cost wise?)

[WololoW]

Just look a page or 2 back, I posted a few .cfg files that fixes part costs (and other little things) to be in line with KSP 24.2.

So is there currently someone officially maintaining KSPX???

I think not, because of the licence.

stupid chris is the current maintainer

I was really hoping that the remaining KSPX parts would be moved to stock at some point. :/

You and me too. 23.5, for example, would've been an excellent opportunity to add the 3/4 tank and the escape tower. Instead they chose to add a fugly and useless Apollo escape tower, and an equally useless 3/4 tank with engine built into it. So much for the KSP part design philosophy of making everything as modular as possible.

But it wasn't patched for 0.24

there is an mm config a few pages back use that while we wait for the legally recognized maintainer to make an official update

[stupid_chris]

But it wasn't patched for 0.24

Because I'm pretty busy with other important stuff.

[andre0525]

aren't these part already in 0.24?

[Spanier]

Because I'm pretty busy with other important stuff.

So if I would provide you with an updated version, you would publish it?

[Bomoo]

Works perfectly fine in 24.2.

[stupid_chris]

No. Be patient.

Given I'm nearly done with Stock Rebalance, this is right next on my todo list, and should be a lot less lengthy to update. Expect an update at some point this week

So you are the maintainer stupid_chris? Man you must be busy now with all these mods.

Alright guys, had some time to slip through an a rogue computer and managed to finalize this, which was nearly done when my laptop broke down. That said, KSPX v0.2.7 is up.

Changelog:

[BALANCE] Rebalanced the mass, cost, and entryCost of all parts to match Stock ReBalance standards
[BALANCE] Rebalanced the reaction wheels torque to fit the StockReBalance schemes, (warning: they'll look grossely underpowered if not used paired with SRB)
[BALANCE] Rebalanced the fuel/to mass ratio in the 1.25m Xenon tank as well as in the radial LF and LOX tanks
[FEATURE] Added MonoPropellant to the old Cupola pod
[BALANCE] Rebalanced the LV-NB to be 2.67 the LV-N to have same performance and nice fitting cost, mass, and thrust values
[BALANCE] Dropped the Monopropellant amount in the 2.5m small tank to 250

So yeah mostly some rebalance here. It's important to note that the rebalances are made with the same scheme as Stock ReBalance as I'm not interested as "balancing" to the ridiculous stock standards, and so the part balance might look a little weird with stock. That said, I very highly suggest you also do download and play with Stock ReBalance.

That said, have a nice weekend everyone!

it still has the older version number on the folder included in the 0.2.7 zip - are the contents indeed the updated ones and the folder just forgot to be renamed?

That's pretty sad, because it kinda defeats the purpose of this mod - it's not stock expansion anymore.

Anyway, all I ever need from KSPX is LV-NB, so it would be easy to fix its balance back to stock.

EDIT. Just did the math and it appears that LV-NB is actually nicely balanced around the stock.

Thanks, Chris.

I'll check I think it's a simple naming problem. Check the files edit date to be sure.

You do realize stock is not balanced at all? If you wanted me to slap random numbers to stats on those parts, I could've done that. Actually it was already done. v0.2.6.1 is what you're looking for. This is all what the 0.2.7 update was about, giving the mod some balance to have something to play with for career.

Until Squad makes a move towards having a somewhat sensible balance in their parts, I'm not going to indulge for total nonesense. I'm not going to sit here and ait for Squad to do it for me.

Just re-downloaded and folder still says 0.2.6.1, but yea, the file dates are recent

Will you add some new parts to this??

Take a few seconds and I'm persuaded you can find the answer in the last five pages.
