OPT Suite 3.4.9.3 beta

Parts changes

• Fixed the J Large Docking Port. Orientations are proper and it actually docks.

Previous changes

Parts

• Added large radial intake.
• Added wrapper intakes for J, K bodies.
• Added wrapper solar panels and radiators for H, J, K bodies.
• Fixed (killed) 1km spawn kraken in Avatar cargo ramp, Humpback cargo ramp, J Deployment Bay, but not the Stail cargo bay(s).

  • WarpJets are now single-mode Pulsed Inductive Thruster (still thrusty like we like it).
  • Bubble is now fully electric. Usability might be reduced.

• Deprecated optional extras: OPT Reconfig CryoEngines. Use Rational Resources Jet Family.
• Deprecated WarpJet Isp selector based on B9PS.
• Received all patches and sounds from the parts packs.
• Reduced the RO configs a bit. Treat it as less stable, less complete.
• Updated Antimatter configs so containment cost only applies when tanks are set to hold Antimatter.
• Updated boiloff configs to cater for more resources.
• Updated WBI OmniStorage (tank switcher) config to be optional extra (for players who want WBI Pathfinder but not this effect).

Suggestions

• Install RR Jet Family (v 2.0.4 or later) for fuel switching in the LFO engines. They can choose between LFO, Hydrolox and Methalox.
• Install RR Nuclear Family for balancing the engines that have been converted to thermal nozzles. (ThermalPower sources not added/included in OPT)

OPT Suite 3.4.9 alpha

Changes

The changes are few but with big footprints:

• Dry mass balance on all parts. (They were largely excessively heavy but they should meet CryoTanks' standard now)
• Rewrote engines to not be handwavium by default:
  • Except the warpjets are still warpjets
  • The Dark Drive is now an antimatter engine, and the Bubble engine might be in a weird place, possibly unusable
  • The J61 engine has been made into scramjet only. (Doesn't function under Mach 4 speeds.) I should undo that, probably? Lots of people like it being an all-range engine but it's really OP as a short engine but its complement, the short HAE-02 turboramjet exists, and its true equivalent, the J-60 Screamjet exist. Fixing the J61 will break the most craft files (and hearts) 💔
• Made some changes and reductions in RO support.
• Some changes to the fusion power spheres.

Suggestions

• Install RR Jet Family (v 2.0.4 or later) for fuel switching in the LFO engines. They can choose between LFO, Hydrolox and Methalox.
• Install RR Nuclear Family for balancing the engines that have been converted to thermal nozzles. (ThermalPower sources not added/included in OPT)

OPT Reconfig 3.4.1

• Fixed lingering OPT SAS problem(s).
• Fixed excessive EC demand of 2.5m Dark Energy power sphere's Dark Goo regeneration.
• Increased drag power of OPT airbrakes.

OPT Reconfig 3.4

• Changed life support resources into a discrete B9 switch module on crewed parts (so LS and fuel can be chosen in parallel on them, especially cockpits).
• Fixed issue with missing keys on EggDog engines when CryoEngines installed.
• Fixed missing Oxidizer gauge on EggDog and Bubble engines.
• Fixed other issues with WBI Classic Stock and CryoEngines:
  • Default tank amounts were wrong.
  • Made OmniStorage default to LiquidFuel, not Propellium, when OPT_Reconfig_CryoEngines not active.
  • Made air-breathing fuel mix switcher (in engines) default to LiquidFuel, not Propellium, when OPT_Reconfig_CryoEngines not active.
• WBI Stress!
  • Allowed entertainment center to not need a connection to the homeworld.
  • Discounted microgravity stress except when Less or Zero Handwavium active.

OPT Reconfig 3.3

• Adjusted Dark Drive options to detect "SystemHeatConverters" to hopefully cure System Heat conflict.
• Created Extras folder containing:
  • OPT_Reconfig_CryoEngines.cfg - Except for RO users, this has been moved out and is now completely optional.
  • OPT_Reconfig_LessHandwavium.cfg - Changes engine behaviors and Tidal Force power spheres to be more "stockalike" or "realistic."
  • OPT_Reconfig_ZeroHandwavium.cfg - Includes the former and deletes the "Dark Energy" power spheres and end-game engines.
  • OPT_Reconfig_LessB9ForTweakScale.cfg - Disables B9 toggles for engines and converters as TweakScale doesn't handle them well.
• Fixed OPTSAS problem.

OPT Reconfig 3.2

• Added Feature Bias "B" tweakable. Edit the values in OPT_Reconfig/OPT_00Tweak.cfg to your liking. Not tested for use with RealismOverhaul but should still work just fine. This tweakable allows for:
  • [1] Reducing the handwavium nature of most OPT engines and the "Tidal Force" (fuel cell) power spheres: give them stockalike or more realistic:tm: behavior.
  • [2] Option [1] + Deleting the Dark Drive, WarpJets, Bubble engine, and "Dark Energy" (fusion) power spheres.
• Enabled all OPT body parts to hold IntakeAtm for maximum use of WarpJets.
• Fixed redundant FFT Antimatter containment module on parts.
• Fixed other fatal Classic Stock issues.
• Improved or fixed integration with Classic Stock and Rational Resources.

• Added a system so you can turn off B9 feature switching to cure Tweakscale problems with these parts. See OPT_Reconfig/OPT_00Tweak.cfg
• Added Far Future Tech derived system:
  • Dark Drive now uses OPT Black Hole resource instead of Dark Goo.
  • Dark Drive is now a true interstellar grade engine derived from Kugelblitz sci-fi engine. No longer useful in atmosphere.
  • Dark Drive is useless without OPT Reconfig as Reconfig contains Black Hole resource definition.
  • Enabled OPT bodies to hold FFT propellants including Antimatter and to carry the containment module.
• Added SystemHeat detection to B9-involved converter modules.
• Fixed new CryoEngines problem due to VIsp config.
• Fixed RO antenna patch to detect RealAntennas and not RO.

  • Dark Goo is its own fusion fuel option and no longer a component of all other fusion fuel options.
  • Phased out Dark Science.
• Tiny fixes.
• Updated Tweakscale configs to be less likely to be overlapped by foreign Tweakscale modlets which then cause fatal exceptions.
• Updated file names and NEEDS concerning CRP vs Classic Stock to reduce likelihood of fatal issues concerning WBI play mode switcher.
• Updated detection concerning stock inventory system.

OPT Suite 3.0

Warning

⚠️ WorldStabilizer no longer works as of 1.11, it no longer protects against the 1km spawn bug (and its presence in 1.11 seems to cause the bug to evolve into a vicious kraken) so take special care when spawning crafts containing at least these parts, or don't use them anymore:

• J Deployment Bay
• Avatar Cargo Ramp
• Humpback Cargo Ramp
• Stail Cargo Bay (Mk1, not Mk2)

Changelogs
