Added support for gas giant jet engines and harvesters Added resources for gas giant worlds in popular planet packs Set up coexistence with Rational Resources

Explodium Breathing Engines v1.5.0 for Kerbal Space Program Released

Sun, 27 Oct 2019 22:21:21

Updated for KSP 1.8.0; corrected a problem with NCS Adapter OX version. As a result, this may not work in earlier versions.

Explodium Breathing Engines v1.4.0 for Kerbal Space Program Released

Sun, 28 Apr 2019 17:28:02

Removed RealPlume configs and submitted a pull request to RP-Stock to avoid Module Manager warnings. Adjusted Eve's and Tekto's resource percentages.

Explodium Breathing Engines 1.3.0 for Kerbal Space Program Released

Mon, 03 Sep 2018 14:14:14

Converted Module Manager patches to full parts, removing Module Manager requirement, to work with the Kerbal X craft repository. Also fixed text labels.

Explodium Breathing Engines v1.2.0 for Kerbal Space Program Released

Wed, 20 Jun 2018 03:09:21

This release includes patches previously missing for wet wings and harvesters for Ferram Aerospace Research. This should fix the incorrect centre of lift indicator during craft construction. This works with both the official FAR release v0.15.9.1 on KSP 1.3.1, and an unofficial release v0.15.9.2 on KSP 1.4.3.

Explodium Breathing Engines v1.1.0 for Kerbal Space Program Released

Tue, 17 Oct 2017 03:59:51

No changes needed to support KSP 1.3.1 apparently.

Explodium Breathing Engines 1.1.0 for Kerbal Space Program Released

Fri, 15 Sep 2017 02:24:16

Extended the atmCurve float curves, to mimic greater thrust in Eve's denser lower atmosphere. Otherwise, no additional changes.

The changes are based on a side project that examined thrust amounts for Advanced Jet Engines on Galileo's Planet Pack's world Tellumo, which has IntakeAir for jet engines but densities in excess of twelve times that of Kerbin.

Explodium Breathing Engines 1.0.0 for Kerbal Space Program Released

Added Spanish language dictionary courtesy of Fitiales and KSP-In-Spanish
Re-tuned harvesters to use KSP 1.3 ModuleResourceHarvester changes
Re-balanced tech tree placements
Introduced tech tree swap if Eve Space Program is detected
CKAN NetKAN file added

Explodium Breathing Engines v0.2.1-beta.1 for Kerbal Space Program Released

Mon, 08 May 2017 00:07:27

v0.2.1 beta 1 First general release. Removed unneeded comments, corrected minor mistakes.

v0.2.0 Added colourized textures for the majority of these parts. Just used blue bands near connection points or along lines similar to the LFO tanks. Added copyright notice for modified textures; these belong to Squad / Deported B.V. and are used with permission per add-on posting rules part 8. (Not included in release) Added Module Manager FOR statements to prepare for RealPlume configurations. (Not included in release) Added RealPlume configurations using pre-existing models and textures. Cloned two jet engine plumes, then applied them to all engines.

v0.1.6 Further adjustments to harvesters and engines so resource abundance has an impact on engine performance. Changed engine plumes for Sphinx in wet mode, Beelzebub and L.U.C.I.F.E.R. in open-cycle mode to use Stock blue shock diamond. This matches an ethane-oxygen flame. Changed Eve's resource abundance to reflect KSP Wiki suggestion of 10% ethane.

v0.1.5 JadeOfMaar added planetary resource definitions for the Outer Planets Pack, Galileo's Planet Pack and Gameslinx's Planet Pack. Engine ISPs changed to 45% of original values to reflect energy difference between RP-1 + O2 and C2H6 + O2 reactions. Rebalanced engine performance. Baseline resource ratio is 3.75 ExV to 1 OX, compared to 133 IntakeAir to 1 LF.

v0.1.4 Rebalanced engine performance based on ethane chemistry. Baseline resource ratio is 3.75 ExV to 1 OX, compared to 38.1 IntakeAir to 1 LF. Engine ISPs reduced to 16% of original values to reflect energy difference between H2 + O2 and C2H6 + O2 reactions.

v0.1.2: Converted all intakes into harvesters. Harvesters now only work on Eve! (Credit to JadeOfMaar: You're a lifesaver!) Added FAT-451 Airplane Wing with oxidizer tanks. Modified resource to have 1000% chance of appearing in Eve's atmosphere; should work with any difficulty setting. (Credit to ShotgunNinja for preventing a potential snipe hunt.)

v0.1.1: Redid all parts as Module Manager patches. Added Oxidizer versions of all Liquid Fuel-only tanks, adapters, wings and nacelles. Renamed L.U.C.I.F.E.R.'s open-cycle mode to "ExplodiumBreathing."
