USI Parts Pack

This repository is a publishing point for the entire suite of USI mods for Kerbal Space Program packaged in a single download. All source code and game assets reside in the GitHub repositories for the individual mods included in this download.
As mentioned i was hoping for a 'pass through' option to allow for docked containers weight to be transferred to the freighter hull through the two docking ports.
I appreciate you considering it. :D
It's weird that the reactors can't be scaled but the Kontainers can.
Reducing the size of the reactors should output less power, reduce fuel consumption and require less cooling. Opposite for increasing their size.
Apparently, tank 03 has an extra zero on the ArgonGas value, making it 65M instead of 6.5M, which would be proportional to the other resources and tank sizes.
A recent change to USITools.dll seems to have changed the conditions for the MKS Ranger inflatable parts to receive aerodynamic shielding from a payload fairing. Unless the fairing is very large, the inflatable parts won't receive aero shielding, and will produce drag during atmospheric flight even while "inside" the fairing. This can make it difficult to launch a rocket whose payload includes radially-mounted Ranger inflatables, e.g. on the base of a Scout landing module.
Here's a .craft file that has a Ranger mini-hab inside a payload fairing. With a clean install of MKS v0.50.13 (including USITools.dll v0.8.11) or v5.0.12 (including USITools.dll v0.8.10), the hab doesn't get aero shielding from the fairing. (Place it on the launchpad, turn on the "aero data in action menus" debug option, then zoom the camera through the fairing and right-click the hab. It says "Shielded: False" at the top of the menu.)
However, if you go back to the VAB and make the fairing a full segment taller, keeping the same diameter, then the hab does get shielding. The other MKS inflatable parts behave similarly, though the required fairing size (both diameter and height) varies.
Note that if you inflate the hab, it sticks out through the side of the fairing — yet it still gets aero shielding from the "tall" fairing, so the shielding check clearly isn't based on the size of the inflated hab dome in its displayed orientation. However, the tall fairing is big enough to fit the inflated hab dome pointing upward, so it could be that the shielding check is looking at the inflated size in the wrong orientation.
If you replace USITools.dll with v0.8.8 (from USI Core v0.3.4), the problem goes away and all the Ranger inflatable parts receive aero shielding from the original "short" fairing.
(As a workaround, the inflatable part can be placed inside a KIS SC-64 container. Those can be attached anywhere a Ranger part can, and after BobPalmer/MKS#1112, they're compatible with the Scout's weight transfer feature just like the Ranger parts are.)
I don't tell they are too heavy, but i want understand why weight are that hight,
If i watch real world Containers for a 67m³ is 3.75 tons, but yours weight 10 Tons, those spec are double versus refrigerated containers where for 67m³ the weight is 5 tons with refrigerator.
For space transport like refrigerated they require insulation and i can understand the weight of refrigerated ones.
if you are interested i have take the values from here http://www.kkfreight.com/container-types.html, i have watched other sites but specs are always near
Probably my request is related at my gameplay because is always a pain move containers and you can close it if you think that is a selfish request and don't fit your mod design
Sorry for my bad english

The short 1.25m reactor costs the same as the full-size 1.25m, despite only generating 1/6 the power. Likely a copypaste error.
As I said on the KSP forum, I find Konatainers annoying to reconfigure and would prefer a system more alike what Angel-125 has in place.
USI Life support does not work, When I start the game part there is but the game does not use them,
Not included Habitation (USI Kolonization installed)
(sorry for my bad english)
Well all containers subtract the price of their contents from the base price. This means that only a full container has a "price", while an empty has often a negative price. An example:
Filling it shows the price of 2640, which is quite cheap for such an amount of fuel. Furthermore: the price will always be 2640, independent of what fuel is selected.
I don't know how to embed an album in here, so:
Currently the USI reactors are in the Utility category. They should instead be in the new Electrical category
The Kontainer Tanks seem to have some kind of issue with the Firesplitter FuelSwitch Module.
Namely, the label doesn't match the contents and "Tank_07" seems to be a fuel option.
Additionally, the Cylindrical tanks don't support Karborundum, only the spherical ones do.
just a personal preference, and you said you had no preference either way.
Sorry did not seen your Call for a issue.
The behavior is everytime reproduceable with USI Parts only for Auxilary, Airlock and Scout-200 on Every Dunamodule. I have a moded install but like you see in Forum (pics) only USI parts on Test.
Oddly enough all other modules Act absolutely Perfect. Additionaly i tried to Start the Test and i am Not able to target the parts there to but Kerbals are able to interact. Like Grab, Board for Airlock.
Hi RoverDude,
Thanks for great work!
Can we have separate installs for Kontainers and Reactors here and on CKAN?
A nuke that could power a mid size manufacturing base. A short 2.5 form factor would be an excellent choice.
Please add the C3_NukeFuelTank and the C3_DepletedFuelTank to the CTT.cfg. I'm guessing that the nuclearFuelSystems node makes the most sense.
It is safe to delete GameData/UmbraSpaceIndustries/ReactorPack/USI-ReactorNFE.cfg, since this patch (in an expanded form) is now shipped by Near Future Electrical instead.
Per the forum discussion, requesting that reactors be made surface-attachable. The smallest reactor, in particular, is handy - but having to find a node to place it on is less handy.
should be "NAME":"USI Core" instead of "NAME":"USI Tools"
Just letting you know that the NF engines that used to use Liquid Hydrogen now use Lithium, so, could you add that as a fuel for your tanks instead of LH, or in addition to?
Engineers have been supplemented by Mechanics and other new kerbal types. I suggest switching the hard-coded "engineers are the only people who can blow stuff up" to an effect that can be applied to the some of the new kerbals.
The USICore.version file included in all of the downloads says it's for KSP up through 1.1.2, but as of its latest revision, the one here (which is the one that KSP-AVC listens to) says it's only good through KSP 1.1.1.
All sizes of "Kontainer tank - cluster" and "kontainer tank - flat" have the same dry cost.
EDIT: the same is true for KIS-Kontainers of different sizes (including the "Stow-Pak")
not sure if it would go in the kontaners or the tanks, your call, really.
This happens with several Kontainer Tanks (for example the 1.25m version). The texture switch config looks ok (LFO and argon reference different textures). Maybe the content of the texture file is wrong?
The spherical ones still have those three options available though.
I did take a quick look and compare using notepad++ and didn't see any obvious differences like a typo or something, so, not sure what broke.
