Hobbs Space Program

[Mario Hobbs]

Some more photos, It looks like there's a good bit of space from the core to the wall. But turn on part colliders and you'll see the issue that's been harming me.

I think there may be a mod that allows you to change the color of outlines and (I think) scale with camera zoom or something. I can't find or remember the name, the added ui was on the left when you paused. I can figure it out later

I think you might be confusing my problem here

It's not a visual thing, those part collider outlines are the actual part colliders, If the part collider is touching anything in the build area, then that thing will be welded to the part.

Unless there's a way to shrink the actual physical part collider ingame, then I'm going to have an unsolvable issue.

Also some progress on my steam engine:

Currently getting it ready so I can use warpinator to test it on other planets, before I add the visual elements

You're right I thought you meant visual outline.
Have you tried using other parts, fuel tanks?

They suffer the same issue, and they're much weaker than struts

Build an acari drive for your program. Below are some examples of ones i have.( i did not build them myself)
Rocket Link
Rocket Link

The first one is what, but can be turned on an off. Don’t timewrsp above3x while using.

Don’t activate side panels

Don’t mess with docking ports


I hope this helps.

By weaker do you mean destructing wise? You could use negative width unbreakable struts

I have built Acarii drives before, but this does remind me of some strange behavior I encountered when I was trying to build a shock absorber, And it's exactly what I need for the power source for the piston engine. Thanks m8

Always happy to help

This week in my SFS journey:
I've been repeatedly kicked in the crotch by SFS's annoying physics engine ripping apart my mechanisms, So I've taken a short break from that; and I've started making these like mix between russian nesting dolls and mighty beanz. I made one that can be pushed like 89 degrees from its center and then turn back over. I also learned how to make custom textures for the face, My drawing skill suck, but it's a hell of a lot easier than building it with parts.

Cool! How it was?

Cool! How it was?

One of the cities i spent my childhood in. Great. I loved дарагомиловский рынок

A neat walker I just built, It can go downhill and on flat terrain. Though it is extremely prone to breaking, and it is like a thousand parts.

Hmm, I forgot to do the tier 1 bonus challenge. I think I'll post some progress and stuff here. It would be really funny to build some commie blocks on Venus, so I think I'll probably do that.
