Hey guys, I've been out of the loop for about 9 months now and am just getting back into things. I built a few simple jets just for fun. I noticed that when I switch between them while they are on the ground, they will pop up in the air, usually resulting in an explosion or flipping of the aircraft. I noticed it also happens when a vehicle on the ground comes into physics range (the grounded aircraft will jump with no effect on the aircraft in flight). Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated. Here is a screen shot of my GameData folder. https://imgur.com/a/CDeIk

Cool, I'll experiment around with something like this -- thank you very much for the descriptive reply!

Awesome, thank you for the quick reply! I'll give them a try! MFG!

Hey everyone, I'm sure the SSTO hype in the community has passed but I'm getting into a bit of an SSTO phase here. I've had success building several SSTO capable of Minmus missions (with mining) and returned to Kerbal. I find this challenge very rewarding and was wondering if there was a lighter alternative to the Nerv rocket. I've done some browsing and can't really seem to find anything as efficient but is lighter and produces more thrust. Of course, it's possible I've been over thinking things and the Nerv rocket is actually quite OP. At any rate -- I'd like to play around with what ever is available. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Cheers!

Thanks for the info! That helped ease my nerves about trying new mods. I found out that it seems to be a glitch with something not related to KSP. It would say it deleted a file, but then show the file in the folder. Then it wouldn't let me touch it. As it turns out, I just have to close the folder and it disappears. I'm probably doing something silly to make that happen but it appears to be a non-issue. But anyway, thanks for the information and my apologies for the delayed response.

AVC has been the saving grace from the headaches, really. I don't typically go to spacedock, or github directly (if the mod doesn't support AVC). Now I just go to add-on releases, find the mod, read the latest posts to see if it's up to date, and prefer the github links because you can see all previous releases with notes on the same page. As for CKAN, from what I've read it has too many in's and out's for my liking. I'd rather do it manually, like you said, so I know everything is where it should be.

@Galileo You are amazing! Just wanted to say thank you for all your dedication to providing such a high quality mod. Everyone else is awesome too; easily the best community I've been apart of in the PC gaming world. Thanks Everyone!

Good catch man! That was the trick, apparently I just need to slow down to catch every detail; I have a tenancy to get ahead of myself. Thank you SOOO much!

Thank you for your reply and suggestions! I will give that a shot and check it out! As far as EVE, I have v 1.2.2.1 downloaded but when I install it, nothing changes. As far as what's not working, Kerbin is still Kerbin, by looks and name, none of the other planets change either. I'll try that other Kopernicus download and let you know how it goes.

Thank you all for the amazing feedback and tips, you have streamlined my modding. I've been pretty busy so spare time has be dedicated to playing and personal affairs, so my apology for the late thanks!

Hey everyone, First of all, from everything that I've read I can ascertain that the majority of you are helpful, kindhearted individuals; I want to say thank you for that. That being said, I feel as if I may be asking the wrong questions. So instead of posting where all the developers are posting, (and asking stupid questions), I'm going to ask this question here -- where my newbishness is assumed and expected. KSP 1.3 Game Data Screen Shot: http://imgur.com/a/yngN5 (all mods are up to date) I've tried to install the SSRSS (Kerbin sized real solar system) after reading the entirety of the latest thread for the mod -- which contains very specific instructions, updates along the way, and countless confirmations that it's working properly on 1.3. However, all three times I haven't been able to get anything to work. Now I'm wondering if there's some mod out there that I've just never happened upon; that no one talks about, that's sort of an "Oh, you didn't know you needed that? EVERYONE knows that", type thing. I've posted on that thread but my question seems to stick out in a bad way and feel stupid posting there due to my ignorance of how all of this really works. Anyway, I'm in no rush and appreciate any support someone is willing to give me.

Hello everyone, I have a bit of a problem that I can't seem to resolve. I've read every page of this thread, followed every instruction to the letter three times; but have failed to get any of it to work. I hate being that guy, but I'm pretty new to the game as far as mods go. Installing this doesn't seem difficult at all, so I'm sure I'm just missing something simple (as usual). Here's a screen shot of what I have installed. I have started a fresh install specifically for this mod. Any help would be most appreciated. -PF

Hey, I know this question has been asked and answered, but when I start the game (v 1.2.2) it says "only compatible with v 1.2.1." Is this now accurate, or is that error message benign?

It sounds like we have similar interests! I have probably 22 mods or so, I like to build various bombers and fighter jets as well as some sub orbital high-speed bombers. Procedural wings and BD armory is a must, I can hop over to that NKD forum where we first met and get the BD link from there. I should check github for procedural wings though? LOL I'm an idiot, I understand now. Thank you so much for the help! Now if I could only find someone to make starwars parts.....

Fresh copy runs flawlessly without memory leak or any weird glitches. I posted another question in the modding section about where to find a list of the latest mods and their dependencies; any chance you can point me in the right direction? I don't even remember what mods I need to get started lol (I was very unorganized in the beginning)...

That's a good idea, I think what I will try is verify the game cache and copy the game folder from steam and start over from there. I'll let you know how this goes, 2150 game files failed to be validated lol.

Just thought of something: My original copy is a steam copy, could these files be on lock down because of steam? Should I uninstall though steam? Thank you for the quick reply!

Well, I messed up several mod installs, (separated files into specific locations), I believe it was you that set me straight on how to install mods the correct way. Since then, I've had memory leak issues, as well as what I can only describe as an epileptic-event inducing glitch when at high altitudes above a planetary body. To rectify this issue, or issues related to messing up the installation of a mod in the past, I just copied my clean copy of KSP and modded the new copy. Anytime I try to delete the old file for an updated one, it will not allow it to be deleted. I do believe this might be related to my other project on this PC: X-Plane 11 in which I somehow or another corrupted 64gb of data... So I guess a better question is do you think this is HD related or KSP installation related lol?

Hello, Just as the title says, I'm about to either reformat my HD or uninstall everything completely; however, I don't have a sure fire method of obtaining the latest versions of mods in general. There seems to be a lot of dead links and dated files out there, so if someone could shine a light in the right direction for me that would be great.

Thank you.

Hey guys, I started modding this game with very little understanding of how everything works. I've corrupted several GBs of data that I literally can't delete. I'm wanting to uninstall everything and start over. But at this point, I'm wondering if I should just reformat... Corrupted data is never good. Any advice from someone in the know would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys, I'm pretty new the forums as well as KSP. I have about 13 mods installed and have an aching suspicion that one of them is either out of date, or installed incorrectly: massive memory leak, when I go above the first layer of atmosphere, shadows and lighting get really buggy. What would be a suggestion from an experienced modder? Any advise would be appreciated. P.S. My apologies if this is not the correct place to post a topic such as this, as I said, I'm pretty new around here ...

Thank you kindly, good sir!

Hi, I'm an idiot apparently and am unable to find this new version of BD Armory... I'm a pleab.... Can you hook a pleab up with a link?

I have done a bit of searching on this and can only find archived posts on this issue. Mods I have installed: FAR, B9, NKD, OPT, ISFS, KAX, Proc. wings (B9 and stock), BD armory, BD mk22 plugin, Airplane Plus, Firespiter, Tweak scale and module manager. Whenever I equip the parachutes, they don't show up in staging, or otherwise. If I need to provide more information, please let me know. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
