Space Station Modules?

[penlu]

I wished someone would make some modules you can dock in orbit. I know about Kulch's Mir-2 addons, but there are no modules aside from the two that come with the normal orbiter package. Someone should make truss sections, radiators, and solar panels. Don't ask me to do it, I don't have anim8or or know how to program (or delete random bits either!).

So maybe someone could make those? I have a list of parts and a space station already drawn up, partially for the reason that the fan on the computer with orbiter broke.

Nobody will do it, I think. But if anyone does...
2 sided large panels (longer than smalls) (not wider)
2 sided small panels
1 sided large panels
1 sided small panels
2 and 1 sided small and large radiators.
Truss sections the length of default modules

Too many. ?

There are loads of addons out there already for station building, all you need to do is search. Orbithangar.com is a good place to start.
These should get you started:

[ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=3177"]Space Station Building Blocks 4.1B[/ame]
http://orbiter.mustard-fr.com/addons/addons.html

Both full of excellent building blocks.

Unless I miss penlu's intent, it seems he wants to revisit the entire building of the ISS. If so, perhaps a listing of all of the individual addons for the ISS, updated for the current Orbiter version (if the addons still exist) might be appropriate.

Penlu, RokGeetar, is right though. Pass a visit to Orbithangar, or to Simcosmos and you might find what you are after.

Cheers

RokGeetar's second link has all of that. Mustard has done great work for the Orbiter community. You can very nearly build the ISS from scratch with his modules. Kudos to him.

I'm not building the ISS, actually. I'm going to try to make a bunch of custom space stations in orbit aroung various celestial bodies. I'm not the best pilot, so I won't launch the parts, but I have constructed a space station out of parts docked together in orbit using a Dragonfly. I used Scenario Editor to put everything up there. I think that's cheating.
