Version 1.0.0 for Kerbal Space Program 1.7.0

Released on 2019-05-12

• KSP 1.7.x
• Final content update
• Updated ModuleManager to 4.0.2
• Soft-deprecated all old solar panel parts: you have 2-3 months before they are removed PERMANENTLY (this was necessary due to extensive model changes)
• New part configs and names introduced * Complete artistic redo
  • Division of Basic, Advanced, Blanket, Concentrator panels is now visually clear * Use of reflective shader to improve visual fidelity
  • Consistent texel density for all components
  • Visual continuity with Restock project
• Panel naming convention has been clarified:
  • Non-blanket deployable panel nomenclature is now K{EC Output}-{Suffix}, where Suffix is composed of A (advanced), R (retractable) and/or K (concentrating) as appropriate
  • Blanket nomenclature is OKEB-{EC Output} with an R suffix if retractable
  • Circular nomenclature is NIV-{EC Output} with an R suffix if retractable
  • Most larger panels got new nicknames
  • Removed certain tags from un-retractable panels to remove them from searches
• Manufacturer naming has been tweaked and consolidated into two manufacturers
• Many descriptions were rewritten to account for changes
• Several replaced/significantly modified models:
  • K7-A/K7-AR 1x4 panels have been replaced with a modern Dragon 1 style
  • K22-A, K15-A panels are now physically larger (previously they were too small for their power output)
  • K55 Megalador has a completely different model with a different closed footprint
  • OKEB-100 has a completely different model with a different closed and open footprint based off a Deep Space Gateway concept illustration
  • OKEB-500 has a completely different model with a different closed and open footprint based off NASA DRM5 SEP-CHEM option
  • OKEB-75-R has a completely different model with a different closed and open footprint, and is now fully shrouded.
  • NIV-30 has been reworked to be visually similar to Dragon 2 wraparound panels
  • NIV-18 has been reworked to be visually similar to Dragon 2 wraparound panels but in a taller footprint. Renamed to NIV-45.
  • Static truss panels can now be switched between truss and flat versions for flush attachment options
• Balance changes:
  • Concentrator arrays have new cost/mass tier: even more expensive, slightly more massive, best output/area
  • OKEB-125 panel can now be retracted, power output updated to 150 kw (also retitled OKEB-150 as a result)
  • K90 'Trio' and K30 'Solo' are now Blanket style arrays from a balance PoV, and are retitled as OKEB-45 and OKEB-15. They can no longer be retracted.
  • YF-8 Circular Solar Array is now Blanket style from a balance PoV (higher mass efficiency, lower cost, worse output/area), and is retitled as OKEB-4R with 4 kW output
  • Mass, cost and unlock cost were tuned for many panels
  • Crash tolerances were normalized by type: Advanced * Shrouded panels now have higher thermal tolerances (2000K) and Blanket panels now have smaller thermal tolerances (1000K). Other panels normalized to 1200K.
  • Tech location tuned for all parts
• New panels:
  • K2-A 1x2 Advanced Photovoltaic Panels: Small Advanced 2 kW array based on MRO panels
  • K4-A 3x1 Advanced Photovoltaic Panels: Small Advanced 4 kW array based on TDRSS Gen 1 panels
  • K20-C 1+2+1 Concentrating Photovoltaic Panels: Medium Concentrating 20 KW array based on JUICE panels
  • K40-AR 'Oar' Advanced Photovoltaic Array: Medium Advanced 40 kW sized retractable array
  • KX-STAT-2 Advanced Photovoltaic Truss: Single-panel version of the KX-STAT series (2kW)
  • OKEB-25-R 'Starship' Blanket Photovoltaic Array: Small Blanket 25 kW panels based off the SpaceX Starship panels. Fully shrouded.
  • OKEB-250 'Ares' Blanket Photovoltaic Array: Huge Blanket 250 kW panels based off NASA DST concept art
  • IX-A 3x1 Advanced Photovoltaic Panels: Small Advanced 4 kW array based on TDRSS Gen 1 panels
• Curved solar panels now extend 10x faster in the VAB/SPH
• Curved solar panels now update their symmetric counterparts when deploying/retracting in the VAB/SPH
