    [KSP 1.12.1+] Galileo's Planet Pack [v1.6.6] [23 Sept 2021]

    in KSP1 Mod Releases

    Posted

    I'll report that have also experienced this, on two saves in a row, the second of which I didn't even have anything in space, it just seems to happen if I warp down after ~70 days of gameplay. Unfortunately, I'm running a sort of "high-risk" mod set (i.e. featuring at least one mod marked as not compatible with 1.12), so I don't particularly think posting a save would be helpful, as I could just be having unrelated issues.

    I would only recommend CKAN if you are incapable of navigating your file system or unable to wrap your head around zip files. OP doesn't have problems with installing mods, just stemam doing something unexpected. In fact, since CKAN requires the user to specify the folder for most installs, it would have failed the exact same way.

    It's the issue where any objects in orbit around Kerbin tend to end up with severe orbital decay due to issues with reparenting Kerbin, which is almost definitely a problem with Kopernicus and not something I would really go here to bother about... in fact, I'd probably end up going and fixing it myself if it really bothered me, though that's really more of a personal problem than anything (really, pointing out an issue before going gung-ho to fix it is probably a good idea).

    that section doesn't necessarily contain all the issues.

    feel free to add one if the github issues system is a better way for you to track those kind of things :wink:

    ? No, I just think any issues should be on github, but I'm also not as familiar with the zeitgeist regarding error reporting in this particular modding community. Dwarf Fortress is small enough that it's a person-by-person basis (I personally prefer github issues), but KSP seems to have a good deal of sort of unspoken agreed-upon standards for a variety of things and I don't particularly want to stomp around and yell that people should do it my way.

    I guess the way I asked the question sounded more like "why aren't you putting it on there" than the literal "why isn't it on there", huh.

    tested

    No, procedural parts seems to use TankContentSwitcher in its own content files exactly the same way the CryoTanks patch patches it... unless I'm misunderstanding something real subtle.

    EDIT: Just tested, the fix I posted above seems to work. If it does break compatibility with those who have MFT but not PP... I don't see how, since it only seems to patch PP parts, unless MFT uses parts with the same name.

    Yeah, I had it at 1000 before, set it to 100, found even that was too big then forgot to lower it before posting here, heheh. Anyway, yeah, I noticed the limits as I was making them and noted them in the comments. The wording by "still basically can't do" means "the configuration provided has no tools to do this yet".

    As for "sideways", yeah, I meant having magnetic axis be separate from axis of rotation. The magnetic axis of Arin is stated by the Dmagic magnetometer experiment to be sideways and one particular biome is given as the pole, so if I had rotations I could pretty easily set that up correctly. That was the only one I really searched around for, I figured the quadripole and huge tidal compression by parent body would rely on some sort of big rewrite after I had figured out all the various meanings of the options by perusing the code. If magnetic axis can be separated in a reasonably trivial manner, that'd be great.

    Quadripole radiation I can't even imagine the appearance of, except maybe by making some sort of fake inner body with gravity too low for the SOI to reach the surface, but that sounds highly dangerous and irresponsible. Plus, it won't display right.

    Also, I had the radiation belt contract issue earlier today as well... I got a high radiation warning and everything, did a geiger counter test to see if that would do it, recovered the whole thing, still didn't complete the contract. I have so many mods it could be any one of them, so I didn't bother reporting.

    4) Not until 1.2.

    6) Essentially, everything works with all of those. That's seriously it. Delete all the EPL parts but the survey stake and mallet and the rest works perfect.

    7) Yes, TAC is still available. USI-LS is also excellent and that option is there. Which you use is up to your taste.

     

    I recently played a save doing basically exactly what you were saying (seriously, same goal including OPM, EPL, MKS, OSE and a Minmus base) and it was great.

    Here's a compatibility patch for New Horizons:

      

    // ============================================================================
// Radiation environments for New Horizons bodies
// ============================================================================

RadiationBody:NEEDS[New_Horizons]
{
  name = Arin
  radiation_model = earth                     // sorry, can't make it sideways
  radiation_inner = 20.0                      
  radiation_outer = 4.0                       
  radiation_pause = -0.010                    
}

RadiationBody:NEEDS[New_Horizons]
{
  name = Aptur
  radiation_model = anomaly
  radiation_pause = -0.010
}

RadiationBody:NEEDS[New_Horizons]
{
  name = Serran
  radiation_model = earth                     // still basically can't do weird magnetic fields (serran has quadripole)
  radiation_inner = 3.0                      
  radiation_outer = 1.0                       
  radiation_pause = -0.003
}

RadiationBody:NEEDS[New_Horizons]
{
  name = Sonnah
  radiation_model = giant
  radiation_inner = 30                        //Should probably be more intense, given science data, but that would make early game WAY too hard
  radiation_outer = 3
  radiation_pause = -0.007
}

RadiationBody:NEEDS[New_Horizons]
{
  name = Titanus
  radiation_model = giant
  radiation_inner = 200.0
  radiation_outer = 5.0
  radiation_pause = -0.010
}

RadiationBody:NEEDS[New_Horizons]
{
  name = Ete
  radiation_model = irregular
  radiation_pause = -0.002
}

RadiationBody:NEEDS[New_Horizons]
{
  name = Vanor
  radiation_model = giant
  radiation_inner = 200.0
  radiation_outer = 5.0
  radiation_pause = -0.010
}

RadiationModel:NEEDS[New_Horizons]
{
  name = tidus

  has_pause = true
  pause_radius = 0.5
  pause_compression = 100.0 //this'll be towards the sun instead of vanor, but whatever
  pause_extension = 0.9
  pause_height_scale = 0.45
  pause_deform = 0.05
  pause_quality = 50.0
}

RadiationBody:NEEDS[New_Horizons]
{
  name = Tidus
  radiation_model = tidus
  radiation_pause = -0.001
}

RadiationBody
{
  name = Etal
  radiation_model = earth                     
  radiation_inner = 10.0                      
  radiation_outer = 2.0                       
  radiation_pause = -1.000                    
}

    It almost definitely needs some tweaking; I said that Sonnah's inner radiation should be more intense, but last time I sent someone in they all nearly died of radiation poisoning before even dying of slamming into the "ground"... 

    The rest of the comments are pretty self-explanatory... though tbh Tidus is a bit too weird even taking that into consideration.

    I only changed parts that I thought deserved to be a bit later or in a more logical place in the tech tree--all in all, there weren't any vanilla-to-vanilla changes except where CTT added a higher tier in a branch and I thought it appropriate that a part would go higher (thermal compjet, dustcc and dustring are the only examples of that).

    Since we're on the topic of balancing, I found in the process of making this that much of the mod is OP as hell compared to many other mods. Note that I made the EC-to-VP converters require the "unified field theory" research node--one of the two final tier nodes, requiring 10,000 science each, a cost which in my current install is only shared by an alcubierre drive and a dumb little antigrav device I made as my first mod. I figure this is fair--it's basically infinite fuel, which is crazy. But with a tech name called "unified field theory", you'd damn well better be okay with crazy, ha. I made this config while testing my own mod--I was using the engines from this mod, noticed it didn't have a CTT config, noticed that it filled the exact niche my mod was holding (I only made an antigrav part for putting in the "unified field theory" node in the first place), so I just sorta stopped working on it and went to make this.

    Anyway, yeah, I like this mod. I'll probably tweak it some to replace Blutonium with some community resource stuff, but that's only personal taste, not a suggestion at all.
