OPT Suite 3.4.9 alpha
Pre-release
Pre-release
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)
