• Added integration for Snacks! LS: Create Snacks from Hydrates (CRP) or Rock (Classic Stock).
• Added Extras:
  • RR_BlacksmithFamily.cfg which allows for parts to opt-in and have Blacksmith style furnace or workshop (compatible with EL) and does opt-in on EL workshops and smelters.
• Changed part desc heads-up color from green to blue.
• Enabled Convert-O-Trons that opt-in to have configurable efficiency multiplier and configurable slot count (for mod plugins that facilitate module switching such as Kerbalism and WBI OmniConverters).
• Fixed (inaccessible) bug with LqdHe3 placement in Mun (specific) template.
• Fixed and revised Kerbalism integration.
• Revised opt-in patches for converters, harvesters and Ore tanks.
• Updated Extras:
  • RR_ScienceLabBlacksmith.cfg: Added 4th level (not available in stock tech tree) and added support for nuclear material tanks for use when NF Electric not installed; Added Classic Stock support.
  • RR_BlacksmithFamily.cfg: Added Classic Stock support.
• Updated NEEDS and filenames concerning CRP vs Classic Stock to reduce fatal errors concerning WBI Play Mode switching.

Rational Resources 1.15.0

• Added Extras:
  • RR_RCSFamily.cfg with modlet RationalResourcesRCSFamily to add fuel switching to RCS thrusters whether MonoProp, LFO, or MonoProp (WBI Classic Stock). Has default support for NF Aero, NF Spacecraft, most of NFLV, MKIV Spaceplane, KRE.
• Added ISRU options (specific to other mods or parts in them):
  • Water-consuming NSW production to FFT 3.75m smelter part.
  • Blacksmith (Ablator refurbishment) to FFT 3.75m smelter part.
  • EL recipe for KerbalHealth Radiation Shielding.
  • Blacksmith based Shielding refurbishment to all parts equipped with KerbalHealth Radiation Shielding.
• Added/Updated WIP tank options for NF Propulsion (Lihtium,Argon,Xenon).
• Added opt-in ISRU options:
  • Deuterium: Freezer option to RR Boxed Compressor/Freezer.
  • Deuterium: as byproduct of Water Splitter.
  • Glykerol production (for DeepFreeze users).
  • KerbalHealth Lead Extractor.
• Added opt-in ISRU options (stock mode only, should already be provided by Kerbalism):
  • NFE Uraninite Harvester.
  • NFE Uraninite Enricher (converter).
• Fixed missing Kerbalism MRE Rock definition.
• Moved Kerbalism patches to their own mod folder to prevent their config nodes loading when they need not (when Kerbalism not installed). Due to how Kerbalism operates, configs are parsed before MM runs, making MM conditions irrelevant, and which is the cause of RR processes involving Metal and MetalOre to cause cascade problems because these resources' definitions haven't gotten to load at the time the processes are parsed.
• Updated Extras:
  • RR_ScienceLabBlacksmith.cfg: Blacksmith is now its own modlet RationalResourcesBlacksmith so it can be targeted by patches or used as a dependency. Its converters are SystemHeat compatible.
• Updated Water Splitter to produce proper amounts of H2 and O2 gas (was broken and would produce 20%) and to produce Deuterium (gas).
