Description

After testing out Extraplanetary Launchpads and Roverdude's MK/OKS, MatterBeam had the idea of creating a simple, user friendly mod that would allow you to build rockets without taking a 200MB hit to RAM or having to juggle multitudes of resource pathways. If you know how to set up a drill, ISRU and a fuel tank for an Ore to Fuel conversion, then you should know how to build rockets.

Features

  • No extra parts
  • No RAM usage
  • Added functionality for the Mobile Processing Lab in the late game
  • Simple, configurable and adds levels of depth to the gameplay without a learning curve
  • Ore --> Metal --> RocketParts --> rockets!

Cabin notes

  • Will remain prerelease until taniwha releases Extraplanetary Launchpads release
  • WIP - work in progress
  • A config that turns a STOCK part (no new models, textures) into a recycler. Maybe the Klaw?
  • Am open to adding more features, great project for someone!
  • I have not personally tested the patches
  • Have a request? Glad to have them, kindly submit through GitHub push.

Known issue(s)

  • If the offset/rotation gizmo's are used on the docking ports, the spawn location might be off. This is a known issue and a feature request has been sent to taniwha
