Project Delta

[Jez 10]

Just a thread where I post my stuff from "Project Delta"

I'm currently developing a shuttle without wrapping the shuttle in deadly explosive fluid.

Still testing this guy out, cargo system was hard to do

The cargo bay door still comes off, and cargo won't detach.

Guy's name is ACS Kamaraderie, I'm going to use it to build the MGO-2, it'll join the station fray which has ACS Karunungan in it.

Yey, AREOSD is gonna beat that socialist space agency from Coronia!

 

[Jez 10]

This is no payload yet

 

[Jez 10]

Eh... uhm...

Let's start working on it again!

Prototype Alteration #2
• More RCS
• Cargo bay system fixed (hopefully)

Gonna test this boi now, wish me luck.

If I succesfully fix the payload system, I'll probably start commisioning this guy.

 

[Jez 10]

The door works, but the payload won't detach

I've tried tapping on the fairing, but nothing works, any ideas why? Provided below is the cargo bay.

Could be you're not hitting all three docking port attachments. Try sending it back up with just the one

If my experience is accurate, in 1.5, you cannot activate parts with hitboxes that are wholly underneath the fairing hitbox.
I had to redesign parts of my rockets once I discovered that.

This is not good news.

 

[Pink]

This is not good news.

It is bad news and good news.
Now your satellite will not accidentally deploy before the fairing does.

 

[Tony]

I confirm it does not work. This is a big problem for shuttles.

 

[Blazer Ayanami]

Yeah, in 1.5 you can't touch things below Fairings, that hitted me hard. I had to redesign almost all my shuttles.

 

[The Dark in the Light]

Think Stef wil fix that?

 

[Blazer Ayanami]

I don't think its a bug in first place, more like a new feature, and it makes sense if you think about it.

Who knows? Maybe people complaints and he fixes it.

I really hope he does. I had some problems with my shuttle as well with it.

 

[Blazer Ayanami]

I really hope he does.

Yeah, I'm a little frustrated with an update that spent 6 months doing 'bug testing' and that It should be 'roughly bug-free' and that actually is the most buggy version of SFS.

I had some problems with my shuttle as well with it.

Me too.

noice shuttle

Reeeeeeeeee

I just started it's first maintenance test mission and now I have to know this.

 

[Jez 10]

Never have I ever thought I have to return to strut cargo bays

Shit works already, I guess...

 

[Jez 10]

AAAAAHH WHAT THE FUCK!?

I accidentally deployed my fairings while zooming :')

 

[Jez 10]

Fuck the looks, it works

 

[Pink]

Let me tell you about the time I deployed unsecured fairings during the final de-zooming burn when landing on mars...
The fairings broke the middle of the rocket, and so the bottom zoomy-bit crashed into the top not-zoomy bit... Only a few pieces left behind after

Jez 10 , I have confidence that you will be able to design a covered cargo bay that works as intended! Maybe attach the payload to the door probe via an accessible docking port?

 

[Blazer Ayanami]

Jez, cargo bays with fairings STILL work, you just have to redesign them a little

 

[Jez 10]

So yeah, this mission I'm currently doing is actually under "Alpha", but I guess I'll just use this thread for my missions.

I'm planning to do a grand tour (not really), landing on moon, mars, phobos, deimos, and every planet and moons in stock game, but I think I won't land on venus for now, tho.
I could have done a two launch system, with the first launch being the shuttle and payload, with the second launch being the detachable fuel tank that I will drop on the way back to earth; but instead, I became too lazy to place my payload onto my shuttle and ended up launching the payload and shuttle separately.

screenshots to come by once I got home by night (GMT+8)

u... uuuu... I'm supposed to be winning a chess tournament... uuu....

nope

 

[TtTOtW]

General. The docking ports work perfectly if placed at the ends above the separation line.

 

[Pink]

One of my strategies.
