This is a small(ish) update in order to roll some existing work-in-progress into the main release. Principally, this includes some texture/shader improvements, a few new parts, and the introduction of a new inventory-based system that allows space station modules to be outfitted with different functionality in flight. In future I intend to expand this further.

NEW PARTS

  • Added standalone ISS radiator part
  • Added standalone ISS SAW radiator part
  • Added half-length ISS solar array
  • Added 1.25m->0.9375m adapter parts
  • Added heavy-duty RCS parts (10 variants)
  • Added additional cargo/toolbox parts

IMPROVEMENTS

  • Added InventoryUpgrades plugin by ValiZockt
  • iROSA panels are now added via InventoryUpgrade system; iROSA part can be dragged into inventory upgrade slot on SAW parts to add it to that part. Standalone SAW has a single slot, P/S3 & P/S6 have double slot
  • Added KAL controller to relevant parts
  • Rebalanced SGANT antenna part masses
  • Adjusted part naming for consistency
  • Rebalanced radiators
  • Updated hatch/endcap art for 1.25m and 0.9375m nodes
  • Updated airlock design with animated thermal cover
  • Added switchable trunnion pins for 2.5m parts
  • Updated legacy textures
  • Added new reflective variant to pressurised modules (selected by default)
  • Added animated window covers for various parts
  • Added animated airlock to Kibo part
  • Updated Cupola art - window shutters are now switchable
  • Updated bulkhead profiles

UPGRADE RACKS (WIP)
Parts with UTILITY RACKS can be equipped with utility rack parts to add additional functionality to the part in flight. To equip a rack, simply place the part inside an inventory slot marked 'Utility rack.'
Currently these include:

  • Command point
  • Experience management
  • SAS
  • Data transmitter
  • Robotics controller (for EasyRobotics)
  • Probe control point
  • KerbNet access
  • MechJeb

FIXES

  • Fixed issue with some truss connector ports lacking a dockingNode transform

COMPATIBILITY

  • Added VABOrganizer patch (WIP)
  • Updated dependencies to latest version
