• png textures to dds, @jrodrigv

• Match KSC grass color, @Standecco

v16.4 for KSP 1.7.X

• Integrated the RSS Runway fix from @whale2
• Removed Version Checker

v16.3 for KSP 1.7.X

• Recompile for KSP 1.7.X

v16.2 for KSP 1.6.X **HOTFIX**

• I foolishly had the wrong AssemblyVersion information attached on the previous release causing problems. Things are fixed now

v16.1 for KSP 1.6.X

• Fixed the issue where KSP log stated there was no preset high for PQS (Thanks to @PhineasFreak for telling me how to fix - Issue #167 )
• When KSP is reading biome maps, there are imperfections for some reason. There will by 1+ pixel readings of a different color than something identified in the file. In this situation, it defaults to the first biome in the list. Re-ordered the biomes so that the most common biome is listed first to stop something like Olympus Mons showing in many places on Mars. (thanks to Faptown - Issue #163)
• Updated the Readme to point to the correct versions of RSS-Textures at https://github.com/KSP-RO/ScaledRSS-Textures

v16.0 for KSP 1.6.X

• Updated for KSP 1.6.1.
• Added recovery zone support for the NIMBY (Not In My BackYard) mod (courtesy of @Kerbas-ad-astra - PR #155).
• Added the Mahia launch site in New Zealand (courtesy of @leudaimon - PR #157).
• Added an installation checker to verify that the required RSS textures are installed upon game startup.
• Added support for CommNet stations mirroring the existing ones by RemoteTech.
• Enabled the "On Demand" feature of Kopernicus for up to 35% reduction of memory requirements (courtesy of @pap1723 - Commit b1b8507).
• Fixed the incorrect latitude of the MSFN Indian Ocean Ship tracking station (courtesy of @Kerbas-ad-astra - PR #150).
• Fixed the missing surface tiles on sub-orbital flights (courtesy of @siimav - PR #159).
• Fixed the incorrect thermal radiation properties of Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Vessels will now explode less when in close proximity to these bodies (courtesy of @Starwaster - PR #162).
• Removed a lot of non-working stock KSP PQS mods.
• Removed the stock KSP launch sites (managed for RSS by KSCSwitcher).
• Removed the compatibility patches for AntennaRange, Better Buoyancy and TextureReplacerReplaced, as these mods are now deprecated and/or not maintained.

End User Notes:

From this release onwards the following dependent mods that were previously packaged along RealSolarSystem must be downloaded and installed separately:

• Kopernicus
• Modular Flight Integrator
• Module Manager

This only affects users that are installing RealSolarSystem manually. CKAN users are not affected.
