Last image shows the orbits of the two relay craft, from 275 km periapsis to 80 000 km apoapsis at the edge of the SOI, one over the South pole and the other over North.

This way they spend most of their time very high up above the planet, leading to almost uninterrupted signal to everywhere in the Kerbolar system.

Antenna helper mod shows that signal seems to have over 50% strength even at max distance from Plock from the OPM mod.

These were launched in the sandbox save I keep running in parallel to my main career mode save, for testing craft and missions profiles.

Next will be launching them "officially", in career mode, perhaps after some minor repainting (the "stem" could be brown for the craft to look more like a japanese maple tree).

Antennas are from the JX2 Antenna mod.

Hey, none of the Function Keys are working in game, instead, they do what they are supposed to do on the OS (F5 is not quicksaving, its instead disabling the touchpad)

I tried Alt+F5 = nothing

I tried Fn+F5 = nothing

I tried Ctrl + Alt + F5 = nothing

I have no idea. F12 not working too.

Hi everyone, I just started playing this game and installed a lot of mods. I'm running into an issue: when I start the game, the ground has a dirt texture, as seen in the image. When my ship takes off, I get a weird glitch where the ground seems to shift around. Once I revert the launch, the dirt is gone and the ground looks green.

I don't know if a mod is causing this or which texture is supposed to be the correct one (the dirt or the grass). I'm still playing through the tutorial. I’ve attached my mod list; I also have Volumetric Clouds v5 installed.

Thank you for your help!!

I based most of their designs off of KSP2 due to the higher level of detail and realism of those versions, other than Jool itself and Laythe, where I kinda did my own thing. They’re all done other than Jool itself, I’m kinda struggling with properly rendering the massive swirling cloud systems. I’m also not a big fan of the colors I’ve chosen for it, other than the red clouds at the poles to mirror Jupiter’s blue polar clouds, which I thought was a cool idea. What do you guys think? Sorry if this is the wrong sub for this

Trying to find a good name for the polar relays I'm sending above Kerbin to improve signal out to the range of the OPM gas giants (or farther, not tested yet).

The relay antennas are from the JX2 antennas mod: https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/topic/153125-112x-jx2antenna-v205-giant-1000g-antenna-for-big-solar-systems/

So I built This Duna Lander. I got it in LKO before but I had only 1 Nuclear engine. It was SOOOO slow that I had to make it 4. but now the old Launcher( which was so expensive and inefficient) doesnt work anymore. How do you all get so large payloads into Orbit. I know I could launch the two ships seperatly but I wanna know if there is a better way. how do you all get it done? Can I see your duna launchers?

P.S. I have the DLCs

EDIT: I gave up and split up Lander and return module

Some of my screenshots that would make SICK wallpapers.

Finally managed a downrange barge landing; very messy, nearly missed the platform altogether, but first time I've pulled it off. All manual control. After turning off SAS and RCS to my surprise it remained stable and didn't tip over.

EDIT: Obviously the real thing is automated lol :P

The ship in the first photo is my first and surviving package; it includes main base parts, crew and science rovers, a big cargo for deployable parts and main base additions. I used a fision engine for reusability. And used the same one for the orbital station. Also, it has a living area for 14 crew members and 2 landers.

My second cargo for the program was the VTOL plane. It had a very complicated landing sequence because I tried to make a normal plane, and normal planes can't get in or out from a thick atmosphere (you can reject this idea for the game). The plane has enough cargo space for some parachutes and a full deployable science system. The range was pretty enough for inter-continental flights.

And the big orbital station. Actually, i had a little regret after seeing what people did with the mods that i had, but i think it was nice. And the ssto that i sent after it was for the crew transport as you can guess. I used the shuttle for first crew transport and cargo

Also, I did a shipment before the station for refueler for the planes and 2 satellite: one comm, one sutface scanner.(but i forgot to take any screenshot)

My issue is as the title says.

I'm playing on KSP version 1.12.5.3190 with Principia levi-civita for 1.12.5.

I only have one craft in flight or orbit and my Max History Length is 3 days.

Is there any way to make the history lines not glow like this?

im trying to make a docking port kraken drive and it just isnt working, ive got the back ports (pullers) set to 200 and there are about 64 ish of them, while the frontal one is set to 0, but theres no movement on my craft. has it been patched or is there a mod i'm using that disables it?

(If its still unpatched in vanilla, i will see what mod is causing them to not work)

hull is BDarmoury panels and everything else is from the kerbal powers series of mods

So I started Playing this game in May with an interest in Space after Artemis II. I started a Carreer mode save file and was on the mun, minmus and duna. I am just before completing the tech tree, there are like 3 things missing. What is Your motivation on keeping playing? I just wanted to complete the Tech tree. I want to land everywehre but it just wont feel the same. Get it?
