Field Training Lab (FTL)

This mod provides training for your kerbalnauts by adding a Field Training Lab into all science laboratories.

Field Training Lab provides a training method that consumes science points to earn a kerbal experience (stars).

By zer0Kerbal, originally by Efour

adopted with express permission and brought to you by KerbSimpleCo

FieldTrainingLab Hero

Pay 20 science and your kerbal recieved 1 experience. Once your kerbal has gained enough experience, they will level up (max of level 5). Must buy one entire level at a time.

Costs: 1

Level Stars Additional XP Total XP science cost
0 ☆☆☆☆☆ 0 0 20 science
1 ★☆☆☆☆ 2 2 +40 science
2 ★★☆☆☆ 6 8 +120 science
3 ★★★☆☆ 8 16 +160 science
4 ★★★★☆ 16 32 +320 science
5 ★★★★★ 32 64 +640 science

Training costs will be reduced

  • by 50% when your Field Training Lab is in orbit
  • by 75% when your Field Training Lab is on other planet

Cabin notes

  • You can tweak values by editing the part.cfg or using a ModuleManager patch.
  • This module can be added to other crewed parts directly or using a ModuleManager patch.
  • The code currently only works with the first eight kerbals in a part.

  • If leveling up immediately is not realistic?
  • Do you think training needs time to complete?
  • then Field Training Facility will be the answer for you.
  • The Field Training Facility (FTF) consumes Time and Electric Charge in order to train (school) your kerbalnauts.

And you can have both installed

The longer you train with FTF, the less science it costs to level immediately using the FTL.

For example:

Just using FTL, Level 4 -> Level 5 consumes 640p of Science point. But Level 4(50% with FTF) -> Level 5 consumes just 320p of science point. If 90% with FTF? Just pay 64p of science point or wait some more days. you can get level 5 kerbalnaut.

More training means less science points needed, linearly.

These two addons can cooperate

If you want one thing, you can install just one mod. If you install both, they will cooperate and your kerbals profit!!

Whilst I agree CKAN is a great mod for those that can't use zip tools, I take no part, nor am interested in maintaining the CKAN mod metadata for my mods.

Please don't ask me about it but refer to the CKAN mod thread if you are having issues with CKAN or the metadata it maintains. Beware, CKAN can really mess up though it tries very, very, very hard not to.
