Mod details

Key	Value
Name	Autophage Propulsion Mod
Authors	pm777
Abstract	Low dry mass, low cost. Get rid of staging with self-consuming rockets !
License	MIT
Size	8.17 MiB
Homepage	<>
Source code	<>

Description

This mod adds two different size of autophage rocket engines and consumable fuselage. With autophage propulsion, the rocket itself becomes the propellant. It gradually shrinks as it consumes its own structure. Since the structure is used as fuel, no tanking nor staging is needed.

The mod has been (roughly) balanced with the tech trees and against other propulsion methods. Feedback is appreciated !

Source is accessible inside the .zip.

Note : this is inspired by recent projects working to make autophage engines a reality ! See Engineers test autophage rocket engine fueled by its own fuselage for exemple.

Hey @pm777x2 I suggest renaming your mod's dll to AutophageMod.dll, for 3 reasons:

1. KSP will assume that DLLs with the same name are the same DLL, and only load the later version
2. CKAN can only auto-detect installs if the DLL name matches the mod's identifier.
3. ksp.log has a lot of information about loaded DLLs, and using a descriptive name can help diagnose issues.

Changed the DLL's name as suggested, thank you for your feedback. The new version has been uploaded to Spacedock.
