I've just upgraded to v3 and at first look my early orbital rocket (LR89 / AJ 10 / Aerobee (AJ10-27)) has lost about 500 m/s DeltaV from what it had and can no longer make orbit. I've looked at the change log and can't see anything that might cause this. Has anyone any ideas what's caused this ?

I can't work out how one can see the current fuel capacities of existing launch complexes. Can anyone enlighten me please ?

I'd recommend taking a copy of the original file before making any amendments, just in case.

I've been playing the developer line of the new version and having fun. When the full version came out I created a fresh new install, but I've found that if I try to import old craft files there's an incompatibility between the Procedural Tank (Conventional Structure) parts between v2.0.0.0 (Test) and v2.1.0.0 (Live). When I try and load a craft it can't find a part called 'RO-RFTank-Seperate'. This also applies to craft created by other people in other installs that I've download (e.g. NathanKell's games) I've tried creating a craft with just one part - a procedural tank, and it's incompatible between versions with the same issue both going backwards and forwards. Is this expected or is there a workaround ? If this a case of 'hard luck, that's what you get for playing a beta version' then I'll shrug and move on, but it would be nice to know if I can do something.

Has there been some sort of change to solar panels recently ? Last year I built some early game space craft with solar panels that would keep them perpetually powered up if oriented correctly. I started a new game late last year and now these same craft slowly lose power (daytime exposure no longer offsets nighttime drain) and I don't understand why. I've had a look around and can't see any in game options to change this nor any notification of changes to the mods, or am I missing something obvious (again !). I've been patching the mods when updates have been made available.

Is there any way to edit or modify subassemblies once you've created them ? I don't so much mean editing the craft files themselves, but editing or reorganising the entries in the subassemblies menu. I can neither find a mod or work out if there's any way to do it in game. I know you could edit the craft files directly but that's a bit of a drag.

Ah, I WAS missing something. I never knew that option existed. Thanks so much. Looks like the wiki needs to be updated, because that option is unchecked at all difficulty levels but the wiki makes no mention of it an says that avionics stack.

I'm on v1.11.2 and have a weird problem. My avionic units don't stack. e.g if I have a 2 ton upper stage and set the avionics to be able to control 2 ton, all is good. I add a decoupler and a 20 ton second stage. Now as far as I understand it I now have a 22 ton vehicle with 2 tons of avionics control, so if I set the second stage avionics to control 20 tons then I should be able to control the whole vehicle of 22 tons. But when I look at the RP1 avionics is says only 20 tons of avionics controls, it seems like only the largest unit counts. This seems weird, am I missing something, do I have a corrupt install ? Anyone got any ideas ? Thanks

Ah, that explains why I couldn't work out where to find it. Thanks so much.

Some time in the past I've had a mod installed that produced a nice summary of career progression in a CSV or possibly XLS file for my RP1 game. Can anyone tell me which mod it was that produced this, I'd be very grateful. Thanks. Image of Spreadsheet

Sorry, I should have mentioned that. I'm running it with RP1 so using the RO Kerbalism Config.

I've noticed that at the start of my settings.cfg file there's the line - "Reliability = false // component malfunctions and critical failures, missing configs and so disabled" I've got reliability set on in the settings so I'm guessing this is saying that something is conflicting with it and so it's set itself to off ? Anyone know how I can diagnose this ?

Thanks to @Ocrock for this fix.

Thanks for your reply but no, that doesn't help. I've tried various zooms in and out, even to the edge of the solar system and back and waiting but nothing changes.

I've got a really annoying effect where the orbit lines of planets and craft show up through planets which makes it really hard to orient yourself in the tracking station. I've ported the game directory to different hardware and it makes no difference. I downloaded clean versions of 1.6.1 and 1.7.3 and loaded just RSS via CKAN and had exactly the same problem with no other mods installed. Am I missing some obvious setting ?
