Struts transfer the "rigidity" between parts, so if you connect the booster to the core with a strut, you bypass the floppyness that separators add while maintaining the separation ability. Instead you need to use a single separator and add struts as necessary (struts don't form loops and add no weight and will break when the separator does). You mean one booster with multiple separators? You can't do that, because it would form a loop in the tree structure of the ship. They will disconnect automatically when the separator fires. Parts can only have one attachment point because of how craft are stored in the game. What's going on?Ĭaedus fucked around with this message at 06:12 on Oct 27, 2014 They flop around on one set, but trying to put them on two doesn't work, they sit on top of them but are not attached to them. I'll go give it another shot.Į - I'm also having an issue getting solid boosters to stick to two sets of separators. It's just not often major screwups turn out well.Į: 0.24, not 0.4. I plan on retrofitting it as an interplanetary ship, refilling it on Minmus and hurling it off into space. Everything functional.Īs an added bonus there's a nice big 2.5m stage in low circular Minmus orbit with a big docking port on it and lots of monoprop. It took quite a few taps of the brake and corrective turning to slow it to a stop but it's landed. The wheelbase was too short to allow for braking on Minmus without toppling. Got the gears deployed before Bad Things Happened™ and it was all good.Īn unforeseen (well, okay I kind of knew about it) problem reared it's head. So it had touched down on the two tank wheels and nothing else. It's not over yet! Dopey me had retracted the landing gears and forgotten. better than most of my spaceplanes at KSC. It wasn't needed though because the ship happened to be nicely level and the wheels pointing exactly the right way. Wasn't enough time to do anything corrective really except aborting the landing. During the proceedings a decent drift had started. Altimeter said 30m, so taking into account the height of the vessel, no idea. So I cranked them up, hit the monopropellant and waited for the boom. This thing only has puny engines with enough capability to shift it around on Minmus. Looked back and it was dropping at nearly 40m/s with not much altitude left. The rig was on final approach, radar altimeter started counting down the distance. This was no exception, except that it was. Since 0.24 I just haven't been able to land things properly. I really wish I'd recorded the mission, or at least the landing. Screenshots of the station, and what you're trying to dock to it?
