- Features:
- Currently features the Conical Heat Shield inspired by the sphere-cone heat shield on the Mars Science Laboratory.
- Comes in three sizes: 1.25m, 2.5m, and 3.75m (soon more).
- Works great with Ferram Aerospace Research (FAR) by ferram4, in that here-cone shaped heat shields offer greater control (by lift) over blunt ones.
- Comes with an auto-shroud adapter that meets flush with the shield. It works st like the stock heat shields. Just add something to the heat shield's bottom de (like a decoupler) and the shroud/adapter will appear!
- Supports the Deadly Reentry plugin by Starwaster, based on the works by thanKell, ialdabaoth (who is awesome), and r4m0n.
- Unlike the heat shields in DR, the Conical Heat Shield does not have an ni-decoupler. Instead, it has a single decoupler on the top attachment point ellow/black ring), allowing for more custom designs.
- Known issues:
- Stock KSP has an issue with rescaleFactor on root parts. Since this mod uses rescaleFactor, you should avoid using these shields as the root part on your vessel.
- Future:
- more sizes
- the latest version of this readme is always found on GitHub
