Supports 1.8.1, 1.9, 1.10

Planner Improvements

  • Range selector is now a ScaleEdit, supports values from 10km to 100Tm
  • Ground station planning now includes minimum atmospheric effects when selecting specific ground stations

Config

  • Realism Overhaul: TL-3 Encoder changed from RM(1,5) to RM(1,3). 2x data rate, in exchange for slightly worse coding gain (~1dB). This will reduce the maximum range of TL 3 and 4 for a given power level.
  • ReStockPlus antenna added, configs adjusted slightly. No longer retitles ReStockPlus antennas.

Bugfixes:

  • Ground stations now detected when Kopernicus is used without any planet pack
  • Ground station planning (correctly) does not apply a minimum range for the ground station antenna
  • RF Band validity enforced on symmetry parts when changing tech level
  • Parts with multiple RealAntennas PartModules now correctly detect enabled/disabled state in background

Obligatory warning: Even though this is a release, there are ongoing changes to channel/band properties and the configured encoders per TL.

The data rates achieved between a pair of antennas at a given distance may change between RA versions. A link that was good previously may now not be, or vice-versa. Most of these definitions are configurable in the .cfg files!

Requires KSP 1.8, 1.9, or 1.10
