[KopernicusTech] Lavinia Expansion

[_Augustus_]

This pack will eventually add a red dwarf star with numerous planets to KSP.

It will require KopernicusTech.

Still WIP, but here are some pics of the development:

I'm at school right now, and the wifi here blocks Imgur. Nevertheless, I'm glad to hear there's going to be a new planet pack!

We currently have/will have 3 star packs (toliman, this one and barry). But none of them add giants star...

Also, it would be good if you could dezoom even further in the tracking station.

Probably because they would be really big

Giant stars have radii up to hundred times the Sun and luminosities between 10 and a few thousand times that of the Sun.

I'm working on a new planet named Char, it is very close to Lavinia.

Char ? Starcraft reference ?

Char ? Starcraft reference ?

No clue what that is.

It's called Char after the early planet that eventually was turned into Moho.

[Elowiny]

OOohhh k.

Because char is a molten lava planet in a video game nammed Starcraft.

This reminds me a lot of Toliman.

[Motokid600]

Can't do much with the size of the sun flare, huh?

[_Augustus_]

This reminds me a lot of Toliman.

I used your star color, however Lavinia is more proportionate to Kerbol, being about 1/10 of a Kerbol radius.

Also I am planning a habitable, tidally locked planet with rings and a few Gilly-sized moons.

[_Augustus_]

New habitable planet! Rings were added after the screenshots.

Come on guys, Starcraft, year 1998, the classics of all games.

Maybe it'll serve as reference? No lava ofc, not possible to make it deadly... But still.

How far is that red dwarf? I guess no point of travelling there by conventional means? Well, I have modded craft that can sustain 0.3g acceleration for 84 km/s... but still.

The red dwarf is the same distance as Stella.

And Char is basically like that I guess..

I'm interested, how do i work with KopernicusTech?

First of all, how do you add a star or a planet?

And BTW, i changed Toliman's size to about 3/4 size of Kerbol and has 3/4 the gravity and has an orange color.

All i want to know is how to add planets, and thats it.

And no offense, but i had the same in mind for Toliman!

And last thing, i have a bug where the sunny side always faces away from the star(It actually faces Kerbol, not Toliman).

How do i fix that?
