GTI Multi Mode Engines - WarezCrawler/Guybrush101 GitHub Wiki

The purpose is to introduce a Multi Mode Engine module, which can handle more than two configurations.

###Features:

• GTI Multi Mode Engines
• Select which engine ID to affect
• Availability (Flight, Editor)
• Propellants, Ratios, IgnoreForISP, DrawGauge etc. is set up like stock through the alternative ModuleEngineFX modules
• Custom naming of Engine configuration
• Set Engine Type [LiquidFuel, Nuclear, SolidBooster, Turbine, MonoProp, ScramJet, Electric, Generic, Piston]
• Thrust
• Heat production
• Curves: atmosphereCurve, velCurve, atmCurve

Field description:

"GTI_MultiModeEngine"

name = GTI_MultiModeEngine **The name of the module is always needed

messagePosition = UPPER_RIGHT **This changes where in screen the message is put : Default = UPPER_CENTER

availableInFlight = false ** Set if it is available in flight : Default = true

availableInEditor = true ** Set if it is available in VAB: Default = true

GUIengineModeNames = ** semi colon separated list of mode names for gui. If empty the propellant names are used

propellantNames = ** semi colon separated list of propellants. For each mode the propellants are separated by comma.

propellantRatios = ** semi colon separated list of ratios. For each mode the propellants are separated by comma.

propIgnoreForISP = ** semi colon separated list of true/false. For each mode the propellants are separated by comma.

propDrawGauge = ** semi colon separated list of true/false. For each mode the propellants are separated by comma.

useEngineResponseTime = ** semi colon separated list of true/false

engineAccelerationSpeed = ** semi colon separated list of time (float)

engineDecelerationSpeed = ** semi colon separated list of time (float)

atmChangeFlows = ** semi colon separated list of true/false

useVelCurves = ** semi colon separated list of true/false

useAtmCurves = ** semi colon separated list of true/false

maxThrust = ** semi colon separated list of thrust

heatProduction = ** semi colon separated list of heat production

**Curves are added as if it was a ModuleEngines module. It is important the if the are two modes then if a curve is used, then the number of that curve is the same, namely two. **This means that e.g. atmosphereCurve would be there twice in a row. When switching modes the curve will be replaced in the moduleEngine.

velCurve{}

Example

@PART[engineLargeSkipper]
{
	@description = The smaller sibling of the Mainsail, the Skipper's power rivals that of... large cities. Combining high thrust with reasonable efficiency, this engine excels when used as a mid-stage booster. This upgraded version also feature a liftoff version, which uses intakeair instead of oxidizer. This is much more efficient, but also only works inside the atmosphere.
