Stock parts not on the list will retain their original appearance. KSP loads stock data even if not in use.īeautifies and color-codes only specific parts. People with red/green colorblindness may not enjoy a benefit.īy not replacing stock model/texture files directly, memory usage is in addition to those files.
Serves a dual purpose of color-coding based on diameter, while also beautifying the parts.Ĭolor-coding relies mostly on orange/yellow/green hues. Memory usage is low due to shared textures.ĭespite having more detailed models, performance hit should be negligible, since triangles are cheap. Recommended: Fuel Tanks Plus, which adds more tanks with the same coloration and art style, plus enables color-switching with more options.Īutomatically detects if Fuel Tanks Plus is installed, and will use its textures to enable color-switching.ĬCC can be uninstalled or upgraded at any time with ease.ĭoesn't interfere with other mods that rely on the stock textures. See the Module Manager thread for details and license and source. Included & Required: Module Manager (by sarbian and ialdabaoth). This pack is using a 512x512 image for each of the smaller diameter sets, and one 1024x1024 for the 3.75m diameter set. To put this in perspective, many individual parts may use a 512x512, or even a 1024x1024 texture image, each. So far, each diameter has only one texture that the tanks of that size share. However, to make the memory footprint as small as possible, these new art assets share texture space and use them as efficiently as they can. The disadvantage of this method is that KSP still loads the stock models and textures into memory. (Note: This may not be helpful for those who can not see color differentiation very well, particularly red/green colorblindness).īy using ModuleManager to apply the changes, the mod is a non-permanent add-on, which means you can uninstall, reinstall, and update at your convenience, and it will not interfere with KSP's own patching process when a new KSP version comes out.
It updates the appearance of the tanks to look a little cleaner, while paying homage to the originals, and also giving each diameter its own color for the tank interior, which makes them easier to identify in the VAB/ SPH menus. What is Color Coded Canisters? Quite simply, it is a texture/model pack that replaces the appearance of the stock LFO fuel tanks, using Module Manager (required).
