Surface Science Kit v1.0
 
This is a collection of few instruments that can add some "feeling" to your surface operations.
Designed for OFMM but can be used on any planet/moon. (of course setting up weather station on airless body is pointless but...)
 
 
Press U to unpack instruments.
 
Package contains:
 
Seismic sensor
Drill
Weather station
Relay Post
RTG Power source
 
Modeled by Loru - Packed By Woo482
 
Installation: Unpack to Orbiter folder preserving directory structure.
 
****  Requires UCGO by DanSteph  ****

I'll set up weather stations on whatever airless body I choose, I don't need you to tell me what to do! :p

Very good, there is not enough of that kind of "surface EVA" add-ons. :thumbup:

Are these vessels when spawned, and able to have animations?

Forgive me if this is a stupid question.

actually they're no more than eyecandy but you can substitute instruments with proper animated ones - I'm not a coder so I can't do that.

Actually, I was wondering if it could spawn a SC3 vessel, and make it easy for everyone to animate.

It wouldn't be exactly hard to make an animated DLL of those, autopilots are harder than pretty animations. I would say I could animate something like the weather station on one evening, maybe even add a blinkenlight to it to find the weather station again.

EDIT: One question to the beta testers - how far does the weather API of the next Orbiter version go: "Only" wind, or maybe also sunlight and temperature?

Earth?
A .dll for these experiments is in work, I'll add some basic UMMU interaction through action areas and a few animations.
As far as I know the only weather feature added in the beta is wind, I haven't seen anything relating to sunlight and temperature.

Thank you guys. I had been hoping that someone had at least STARTED working on something like this.
