[1.11] RemoteTech v1.9.9 [2020-12-19]


Recommended Posts

[EDITED: pinpointed the issue] Does anyone have a good workaround to use pistons on a probe? I need to use them just once on orbit. If I have both probe module AND command pod, pistons don't work. They only work when there's no probe control modules on ship. :/ I tried disabling RT in config, didn't help. Removing RT, leaving only parts doesn't help either as then there are missing modules.

Not getting a connection at KSC for some reason. Crafts in orbit are when in view of ground stations, but nothing at KSC... Also, having depleted batteries does not seem to affect connection.

KSP 1.6.1 / RP-1 / RO...

Thanks,

Sorry, I am not able to advise as I am not familiar with RP/RO mod.

Ok so how do I land a probe on say Duna using remote tech? How do you do the landing burns? I'm confused and past experiences was pretty bad

There is no Flight Computer command for this automatic landing. At minimum, you need to do by hands some maths of engine deltas, gravity force, suicide burn timing and others to queue a series of individual commands to land safely.

MechJeb2 may have this functionality and you should check out. There used to be a mod (Landertrons).

There is a workaround to the problem: park a remote control station (crewed and minimum of 6 kerbals) orbiting Duna to reduce the signal delay to 0 sec so that you can remote-control the probe to land.

Yes, there is one workaround. Get your crew out of the manned command pod (just hug the pod) and let the vessel to be remotely-controlled. After this, you can retract/extend the piston remotely. The problem is actually a stock bug, in which targetExtension set by player via PartActionMenu is not passed to targetPosition unlike other robotic parts like hinge.

Thanks, actually few minutes ago came up with the idea to cheat it with F12 as it was for low Kerbin orbit anyway. I just created the thing with extended pistons and teleported it to orbit. Next time I face this issue I'll try what you said.

Ok, I connected this part to space station and all robotics stopped working. Even other parts (not only pistons). Undocked, they're still not working. I've got connection, I've got power. All that robotic thing wiggles. Hinges are loose (motors are enabled, tried disabling and enabling), pistons extend and contract with station movement. Not sure if it's caused by RT, but seeing what kind of issues there were, my bet is this is related.

EDIT: It just... fixed itself at some point. I mean I still can't move pistons, but they're retracted and I can control other robotic parts.

Two questions about Command Stations- firstly do they eliminate the need to connect to the launch centre entirely, or simply reduce the lag?

 

Secondly, once you have the requirements, how do you actually *set one up*?  Do you need to do anything to activate it, or...

I guess I'm a little confused how range is calculated, maybe you guys can explain where I'm getting it wrong.

I'm using Remote Tech with the root range model activated, and as suggested, turned range of all antennae down to 0.5x.

I have a small constellation of 5 relays with Communotron 16s (range 1.25 Mm) in a pentagon around Kerbin at 1.2Mm orbital altitude. I put another satellite in a polar orbit with a Communotron 16, so it can communicate with the constellation around Kerbin, and then a Reflectron KR-7 (range 45 Mm) pointed at the Mun. I then sent out a probe to orbit the Mun, also equipped with a Communotron 16 (just for maneuvers near Kerbin) and a Reflectron Kr-7, which once I got underway I pointed back at Kerbin. The Mun is at 11.4 Mm from Kerbin, so my probe should lose connection with the pentagon contellation of omnidirectional antennae satellites at around 8.75 Mm away from Kerbin - that's given by min(45,1.25)+sqrt(45*1.25), which should be the range the Communotron 16 and Reflectron KR-7 can communicate. The probe's only connection should be with the polar orbit satellite that also has a Reflectron KR-7. But what I'm seeing is that even in orbit around the moon way out at 11.4 Mm, well past the limit of 8.75 Mm, it's still communicating with all of the omnidirectional-only satellites as well. How could that be?

@TaxiService I'm trying to get RT working with the OctoSat command modules

The mod works fine with the patch bundled in for the dedicated antenna parts, but the three probe core parts all include integrated, deploy-able antenna, and I can't get them to actually work- here's the raw code of what I *currently* have for them.  

@PART[OctoSat_Com_HalfTop]:NEEDS[RemoteTech]
{
	!MODULE[ModuleDataTransmitter] {}
	!MODULE[SelectableDataTransmitter] {}
	@MODULE[ModuleAnimateGeneric]
	{
		%allowManualControl = false
	}
	
	%MODULE[ModuleRTAntenna] {
		%Mode0OmniRange = 0
		%Mode1OmniRange = 5000000
		%EnergyCost = 0.6
		%MaxQ = 3000
		
		%DeployFxModules = 0
		%ProgressFxModules = 0
		
		%TRANSMITTER {
			%PacketInterval = 0.3
			%PacketSize = 2
			%PacketResourceCost = 15.0
		}
	}
	
	%MODULE[ModuleSPU] {}
}

@PART[OctoSat_Com_Core]:NEEDS[RemoteTech]
{
	!MODULE[ModuleDataTransmitter] {}
	!MODULE[SelectableDataTransmitter] {}
	@MODULE[ModuleAnimateGeneric]
	{
		%allowManualControl = false
	}
	
	%MODULE[ModuleRTAntenna] {
		%Mode0OmniRange = 0
		%Mode1OmniRange = 7500000
		%EnergyCost = 0.6
		%MaxQ = 3000
		
		%DeployFxModules = 0
		%ProgressFxModules = 0
		
		%TRANSMITTER {
			%PacketInterval = 0.3
			%PacketSize = 2
			%PacketResourceCost = 15.0
		}
	}
	
	%MODULE[ModuleSPU] {}
}

@PART[OctoSat_Com_Side]:NEEDS[RemoteTech]
{
	!MODULE[ModuleDataTransmitter] {}
	!MODULE[SelectableDataTransmitter] {}
	@MODULE[ModuleAnimateGeneric]
	{
		%allowManualControl = false
	}
	
	%MODULE[ModuleRTAntenna] {
		%Mode0DishRange = 0
		%Mode1DishRange = 50000000
		%EnergyCost = 0.82
		%MaxQ = 6000
		%DishAngle = 45.0
		
		%DeployFxModules = 0
		%ProgressFxModules = 1
		
		%TRANSMITTER {
			%PacketInterval = 0.3
			%PacketSize = 2
			%PacketResourceCost = 15.0
		}
	}
	
	%MODULE[ModuleSPU] {}
}

 

Any hints on what I'm doing wrong, or is RT flat-out not made to do this?

@TaxiService would it be possible to make this mod compatible with Dynamic Battery Storage?  At the moment, that mod doesn't pick up RemoteTech antenna, and it'd be *really* helpful for judging whether a probe has enough storage available.  

Here you go though it is pending my minor correction on that inconsistent readings.

Does this have any support for RPM or MAS?

I am wondering how hard it would be to implement the flight computer on a rpm screen, and also implement the signal information on a rpm screen.

Sorry, there isn't any support because it needs major amount of efforts to implement RPM interface and wire it to the component.

For the first question, it is both benefits. It acts as a local control point controlling nearby probes far away from home.

Second, to qualify for Command Station, any vessel needs to have min crew of 6 Kerbals, 1 or more antenna for comm and 1 giant probe core (I think it is called RC-L01 Remote Guidance Unit).

Some time ago (40 page here?), I saw someone else accomplishing a similar mod (1 full-functionality part looking like an actual satellite) using this approach.

You need to combine the majority of the patches for antenna and command parts into 1 patch for the specific part. Below may look like.

@PART[probeCoreSphere]:FOR[RemoteTech]
{
  	//COMMAND
	%MODULE[ModuleSPU] {
	}
	
	%MODULE[ModuleRTAntennaPassive]	{
		%TechRequired = unmannedTech
		%OmniRange = 3000
		
		%TRANSMITTER {
			%PacketInterval = 0.3
			%PacketSize = 2
			%PacketResourceCost = 15.0
		}
	}
  
  	//ANTENNA
  	@MODULE[ModuleDeployableAntenna]
	{
		%name=ModuleAnimateGeneric
		%allowManualControl = false
		%actionAvailable = false
		%eventAvailableFlight = false
		%eventAvailableEditor = false
		%eventAvailableEVA = false
	}
	
	%MODULE[ModuleRTAntenna] {
		%Mode0OmniRange = 0
		%Mode1OmniRange = 2500000
		%MaxQ = 6000
		%EnergyCost = 0.13
		
		%DeployFxModules = 0
		
		%TRANSMITTER {
			%PacketInterval = 0.3
			%PacketSize = 2
			%PacketResourceCost = 15.0
		}
	}
}

Hey everyone, just wondering if there's a way I can uninstall/disable this mod and use the default CommNet without killing all my existing ships? This mod seems to be costing me 15-20 FPS :(

 

EDIT: Okay, so disabling the dll and deleting all .cfg s EXCEPT the settings file disables all remotetech antennae and reverts the stock antennae to stock behaviour. Why can't I delete the settings file - why is it even being accessed? And is this a safe configuration, can I leave it like this indefinitely? Sorry if this has been discussed before. Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: Disabling the dll and deleting the squad configs causes a couple of NREs every time I load a craft/launch a new one. Any ideas?

 

I can confirm this. After having like 5 fps on my base and removing the RT mod, it became 10fps+ :D

RT spams a lot of these:

It seems I'll have to completely remove the mod (although I was playing with it for years). I mean come on, double FPS boost is probably worth it. *sigh* goodbye, satellites, rovers, landers and other unmanned guys! :(
*makes a save*

Oh and.. playing with:
RemoteTech 1.9.3 on KSP 1.7.3 and latest Galileo's Planet Pack (might have an issue with this)

Anyways this mod is damn great!

@atomontage Just in case you don't know, you may not have to remove it! Just disabling the dll will preserve the parts, they're non-functional but still there on your crafts so they don't get deleted. What I'm trying to figure out right now is whether doing that is a viable long-term solution.

Yeah thanks for pointing that out! I've read your comment here and I'm still thinking whether this is the right solution (for me). You see, if RT gets disabled then I have to get back to using CommNet. And that means that satellites become dead. I don't want to play without connectivity.

One of possible solutions is to remove the DLL, play without connectivity for a while until fix is out, then install RT again. :D

Thanks anyways, good idea!

Yes, there is one workaround. Get your crew out of the manned command pod (just hug the pod) and let the vessel to be remotely-controlled. After this, you can retract/extend the piston remotely. The problem is actually a stock bug, in which targetExtension set by player via PartActionMenu is not passed to targetPosition unlike other robotic parts like hinge.

Am I right in thinking this issue is if there is a probe core and a Kerbal in a capsule?  So a core on it's own or a core and an empty capsule should work ok?

That seems to be the behaviour I'm seeing in a fresh install of 1.7.3 with RemoteTech, but in my main 1.7.2 game, with several other mods, the pistons work with a manned capsule, but not with a remote guidance unit and no capsule, which is confusing.

Hmm, I seem to be experiencing odd behavior when it comes to transmitting data.  When I try to transmit science via antenna, I don't see the option at all in the right click menu, no matter which antenna I use.  I can still transmit individual experiments and it *seems* like they follow RT rules for transmission (will test more to be sure), but that's a little annoying when transmitting a large number of items.

If I disable RT I immediately get the standard science transmission options on right-click.

Is this intended behavior?  I didn't see anything in my module manager logs that suggests any of my other mods are applying anything to the antenna parts.  When I look at my persistent.sfs I see that there is no TRANSMITTER information on any of the ModuleRTAntenna items on any of my ships.

If it is intended, is there an alternative "transmit all" button I'm missing?

MM Log: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1nHy34aC33FKQTVR9g6KOw3eScOOwCtE0

E: forgot to mention, this is on a fresh install of KSP with a collection of other freshly installed KSP mods.  But I don't see any other mods touching, the [HighGainAntenna5] object in that MM log. Remotetech is the only one.

 

I posted the bug on Github as per previously mentioned. Will await follow-up there.

wow, this mod have a long story, and its very old. I started to play KSP in the 1.4.x and I didnt know that before didnt exist the comnet. I loose at least 1 hour trying to understand why is so special this mod, if in the game we have the comnet system already :confused: now I understand... but seems like the mod is not dead, so... What does this currently do? replace the comnet system? I think I'm only interested in the part that make you have to point the antennas towards a specific objective. Sorry for the english, and great mod!

@Zerolera While these might be a little outdated as to to specifics, overall, these should help explain RemoteTech, if you havent already read them

Not sure if there is a specific thread, or write-up that specifically *compares* RemoteTech and CommNet side-by-side, but these two wikis should be a good place for you to start.
