  1. Hi, just dropping by to let you know that I'm working on preliminary deb packaging. You can get a deb package from here. Please note that this package depends on mono-complete >= 3.10, which is not available in Ubuntu. You will need to follow these instructions to have the latest version of mono. This package will also install a small script that automatically runs ckan through mono. In the future I hope to move it to a ppa... but first I need to figure out how a ppa works.
  2. It's a shame I don't know who said it first. P.S: for those unfamiliar with latin (e.g, me), it's a joke about the latin saying "Ad astra per aspera", "To the stars through difficulties".
  3. -- removed: apparently I am one of those people who don't research what they are doing before they ask. Sorry!
  4. Hi John. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to sound rude: I was just really really in a hurry (as it's usual for me these days). The thing with forum posts is that we miss a lot of them. That's why we really prefer when people open an issue on github: it might stay there a lot, but it won't get lost. When we have some spare time, we get working on the open issues, not on forum posts
  5. In the future please avoid going to the authors for CKAN-related issues. It's our problem, not theirs. Oh, and please open a ticket for that, someone will take care of it as soon as we have the time.
  6. Uh... Maybe I am blind, but the throttle is divided every 25% (4 intervals, 3 notches + 2 on the borders). What is this 3-parts division you talk about?
  7. ... or if it's even possible at all: this post was made for ISA Mapsat, but the math is still valid. tl;dr: if you happen to catch a resonance with your satellite, you are never going to map the whole planet.
  8. ... which would also be a good thing. It just happens that I'm italian, so it's pretty natural for me to care more about Samantha than others. It would be nice for me if "Samantha" was part of the names pool: I don't want the others to be excluded, I just want this to be included. It also happens to be a name that doesn't clash with the general american-ish names so far, unlike all the other names of italian astronauts. I might be wrong, but as far as I know names are procedurally generated composing random syllables. "Samantha" is not a particularly weird name. It's not like I asked the generator to include "Umberto Guidoni" or "Franco Malerba"...
  9. As a reference to Samantha Cristoforetti, the first italian woman in space, currently aboard the ISS.
  10. Small feature request: could you please make sure to add "Samantha" to the list of random female names? It would be a little touch for italian fans (our first woman in space, Samantha Cristoforetti, is aboard the ISS as I'm typing this!).
  11. RCS is still rocket propulsion using hypergolic fuel, so it doesn't count as an answer to OP's question. But yeah, you can either store air in air intakes or use ions (although we could debate if ion engines are just another kind of rocket).
  12. Hey SpaceTiger! I pulled the wrong files for KerbalScienceExchange, they should be rebuilt shortly. I'm really sorry but I'm super-busy these days: I don't have the time to look into the conflict just now, I'll do that ASAP. If you could open a support ticket on github, that would be the best for us
  13. "Got Jeb stuck in the ceiling capsule".
  14. Yes, it did: iirc, it was due to the author suddenly switching to a new versioning scheme that was incompatible with the previous, something that computers are not very goot at detecting
  15. I was going to reply that it wasn't even on CKAN, but apparently I was wrong. The metadata was wrongly included, but it was missing the correct dependencies. I have removed it from the index now. Big apologies to CaptRobau for the problems we caused
  16. You'll have to email KS' support for that: we are not actually affiliated with kerbalstuff, although it is our preferred host - - - Updated - - - P.S: and remember, please do get in touch for any issue in the future
  17. Hey there! While we do in fact have an easy guide, please do open an issue and we'll see to help you out with it
  18. Hey guys, I'm from the CKAN team, and I'm here to clarify this bit. So, CKAN needs a file to be reviewed and accepted before it can manage a mod. At this time we don't have a ckan metadata file for this mod, since it depends on other mods that are not in the CKAN (yet!). However, whenever someone adds a mod to kerbalstuff, kerbalstuff prepares a template metadata file and sets the ckan badge on the page... regardless of the file being accepted or not. So in reality, there are a lot of mods that have a ckan badge on KS, but have not been accepted into the ckan yet. We are trying to catch up with all the mod requests, but it will take us some time, especially since right now all the team seems to be busy with real life. We could really use some help by the way Hope that cleared it out. If you have further questions about CKAN, let us know (preferrably on github). Cheers! tl;dr: CaptRobau is not responsible for ckan integration, bother me with that instead.
  19. Hey guys, the problem with ADIOS should be fixed now Let me know if it happens again.
  20. Could you please post me the steps you are following? I assure you that most mods are downloaded from kerbalstuff, like FAR, B9, FASA... and mine CKAN is not a download manager: it cannot automatically manage every new mod that is posted on kerbalstuff or curse, but it needs someone to write a metadata file so that it can be supported first.
  21. Hey guys unfortunately KS -> ckan is not automatic, someone from the team needs to review and accept the metadata first. We are doing our best to keep up but lately we are all really tangled with real life...
