Hi all,
Just a random thought i came up with whilst looking at an ISS addon, is there an addon which contains various payloads to take up into orbit and attach to one another to make your own space station?? Any thoughts would be appreciated if there is anything out there!!:)
thanks
Ben
 
there is an add-on which includes several payloads for a space station, but I don't remember the name...
although, you can download several modules separate from this site
 
See also the Orbiter Forum Space Station. Our flight director is on a hiatus because of real life. But we hope to be back in business soon!
 
Ok thanks guys, i aint that good with programming so thats why i thought i could attach seperate modules to eventually form a station. Just out of interest, is there any software that allows you to make vessels, i no there are SDK's etc but i havnt found any vessel creating software. :hmm:
 
Also, go to orbithangar.com and search for "Space Station". There's a great addon called "Space Station Building Blocks", be sure to check it out.

Spacecraft3, available at OrbitHangar.
 
In general terms I recommend not only Space Station building blocks (you need to download and install both 4.0 and 4.1 addons) but also Big Space Plane 4.0 to carry those modules. I also recommend all Greg Burch addons, he is the man when it is about cool modelling of futuristic things. You also may use [nomedia="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=3152"]Big space plane 4.0 scenario generator 1.1[/nomedia] to make your scenarios

thanks guys, one more thing, how would you use the space station building blocks addon, i have tried to get my head round it but cant seem to work out how you would get the payloads into say Atlantis's shuttle bay. :idk:.
