if you're only interested in the size, try to look up the statistics of the engine (what you'll be needing is "dimensions", these are things like the length, diameter, and weight — if possible, look up official papers on it, but plain old Wikipedia might work too), try to match those values inside the game by resizing the engine (note that you may need to use the hidden properties editor to change it more precisely), in one of the panels to the right the game will display your craft's dimensions in metres (height, length, width, + more), and make sure you make your control unit a very small command disc that you can then move inside the engine so that it doesn't add on any extra meters, after you're done with matching the size (note that the performance will likely not match, it is much more difficult to change that for jet engines unfortunately) you can save the engine as a subassembly or something (if you're planning on using it on a plane)
yeah, seems like the tables have turned this time around
but i'm actually kinda glad because it means i don't have to constantly update my stuff so that they work as intended in new versions :')
@SeeyaTheFurry k... y'all know i'm like 40 light years behind (i promise you guys, i'm totally not a Trappistan) so i have no clue what half of some of these words mean
@Alphabetaboom well, there's a lot of people who only play games just to blow stuff up, and you obviously need explosions to blow stuff up
as for its accessibility, i assume it's so that less experienced users don't accidentally put it in their rocket and cause the explosions to crash the game
craters are a good choice if you don't wanna modify existing terrain
simple rearrange the crater curve, make sure the "peak" is at value 1 and location around 0.2 to 0.5, the volcano's pit is between value -1 and 0.5ish, and the bottom is at 0
i have a seperate account for SP that i don't really use anymore, (@JeskoGoesVROOM)
there's two because i made this account prior to knowing that SP and SR2 accounts are compatible
also, for some reason, when i'm in the folder itself, it shows that 10.2k things are in it, yet when i'm outside of it, it only shows that there are around 3.4k things in it
very useful overall, though a little complicated for me
and man do i wish we had the option to make gyroscopes provide stability and uprighting (like in SP) rather than only having it be used to change direction, it would help loads with VTOL's and stuff like this and would mean that new players (and/or those with low skills like me) can make cool stuff without having to be vizzy masters
@Hyperant
Hungary, the land of potholes, littering, 20th century technology still in use today, poor quality in general, and is somehow right next to a country that is about as close as you can get to a real life utopia (Austria)
@Spitty yeah
as a mainly make hyper-OP crafts it usually isn't a problem for me (in fact, i prefer RSS scale over the stock 1/5 scale) but it can get annoying
just follow the size measurements in metres, really
however, because the game was designed for its own scale, the engines and whatnot will be pitifully weak, so you'll need to either get the RSS Rebalance mod or edit stuff yourself with the hidden properties, otherwise you likely won't even make it to LEO
since you said anything would be okay, the only idea i have right now is a mission to make a plane and bring that to a world with atmosphere (Mars and Titan, Venus too but it's probably too hot) and then fly said plane for some time on that world
however both celestial bodies are really far away so they would need huge and powerful rockets, so to compensate, these missions should give a very large amount of money
@SeeyaTheFurry i'm pretty sure i do, gonna take a while though
edit: yep, i do have it, two versions in fact; one from 2021 and one from 2022, which do you want? i assume the 22 is newer version and thus better though
@Renshusuru yeah i was bogged down by summer camp, r.i.p. those 7 days that were stolen from me
+1 1.4 years ago@PZLAgencies i know what to look for, problem is that it doesn't show up

@Vee ???

+1 1.5 years agoi unfortunately haven't found that either

@LeMagicBaguette literally me half the time

its only purpose is to make stuff go boom

@SeeyaTheFurry well, might as well do some

1.6 years agowell, i can't help any further, it's an issue that i have no knowledge of
my solution is to just turn on fuel line on everything
1.6 years agoif that doesn't work, then idk
i've done those side-tank things before, but they weren't foldable

@SeeyaTheFurry i've uploaded the planets from the 2021 version but it doesn't let me upload the system itself
+1 1.6 years ago@SeeyaTheFurry aight
+2 1.7 years agoi won't be able to do it right now but i'll start uploading the planets and both systems soon

@deepfriedfrenchtoast yeah ig
1.7 years agoi've seen it before but no idea how it works lol
1.7 years ago@deepfriedfrenchtoast would it be possible to make a "super-scifi" infinite fuel generator that doesn't consume power?
1.7 years agoDragonfly definitely would work, since those are known for extreme maneuverability irl and so are Flankers
name aside, it looks really good, very smooth too
