Default Re: Capship and Realism Mod Construction

That's my intention. I'm creating an SLV - that's Single-use Launch Vehicle if you didn't know. In other words, a plain old space rocket. And those don't get used twice. So I used a drone for the SLV to assure its disappearance.

edit/add: And I'm using fighters as RLVs - Reusable Launch Vehicles, i.e. space shuttles. Ships will come later as solar sail craft, sleeper ships etc.

Btw, the idea for Realism was originally devised as a part of Capship. Perhaps later I'll combine the two - so you'll start out with Orbital SLVs and later fly COMCAs and perhaps even DCOMCAs between star systems.

edit 2: This means that I'll be working on two mods at a time now - though Realism will go faster. This means that playable/testable uploads will be few and far between. Do not expect any new versions of either mod anytime soon, unless I choose to upload a very preliminary version of Realism for a first look or problem finding.

Also note that BOTH mods require Image Mod Version 24c. Realism does not use 24c pics yet, but I think it will.
