[1.12.x] Trajectories v2.4.5 (2023-08-22) : atmospheric predictions

I just read the github issue. I didn't really "suggested" layer 24, that was the first one of my tests, where it was shown on close zoom. BUT on 24 it is not shown on far zoom anymore. :wink:
Maybe we should test if other layers match better, or, if we want to have full functionality (patches on both zoom modes) we would need to show it on 31 when on far zoom and on 24 when on close zoom (indicated by MapView.Draw3DLines ).
So I though a "proper" solution is a little more work than just changing it to 24. :wink:

OK, I did some more testing and in its current layout the patches are only correctly drawn on layer 24 and 31. In 24 only when zoom is close to the planet, on 31 only when zoom is far from the planet.
Some artifacts are shown on layers 5, 9, 12 and 25, however it seems that this uses another coordinate system.
Maybe one can live with "just switching from layer 31 to 24", as the thing one looses is the drawn patches when zoomed far out... with that one maybe can live.

@Jebs_SY I tried testing with other layers but 24 seems to work best when close, I have modified the code to switch between layers 24 and 31 when needed and it seems to have done the trick.

So patches are now shown at all zoom levels, if you had not suggested changing layers it would of taken me a lot longer to figure out what the problem was.

The GitHub commit is here if your interested: https://github.com/neuoy/KSPTrajectories/commit/aa8787b7ea816c26642a5fd86831b1ec00f4b3d0

Thanks again for the heads up :wink:

Windows Defender has been doing that for a few KSP mods recently, nothing I can do about it, sorry :(

Out of curiosity what is Windows Defender saying the problem is ?

With enough details I can contact Microsoft and let them know of the problem

I know its purpose, but the max. value ever reached in the whole reentry and landing process was ~ 3x higher than Trajectories predicted - and MJ or KER were able to pinpoint the max. G way better.

Example:

Still above 70 km, more than 12 min to impact.
MJ and KER predict the wrong trajectory but a max. G of 2.9
Trajectories predicts a much better trajectory but a max. G of 0.97
The max. G reached 2.93

Since when does KER do a Trajectory prediction?

can you make a quicksave File and Upload it to GitHub to an issue? preferrably one that can be loaded without mods.

There is a hud text line that can be added that shows the estimated impact time, so there must be some kind of trajectory prediction...

That's not an atmospheric prediction, that's the the time point of the intersection of the (vacuum) orbit with the ground. Hence me wondering where a predicted g-force readout comes from.

Well, at least MJ's predicted  max. G-force readout is correct. :blush:

How do you know Trajectories G calculation is wrong, I demand evidence before the Spanish inquisition, maybe MJ is wrong, did you even stop and think that you may be being lied to by MJ. And to even think that Trajectories is at fault should be a crime.  :P:confused:

Where should I check to make  sure trajectories is loading properly?  I am getting an error message in KOS that the trajectories mod is not available.  

I found the log and it shows that Trajectories is loading.  So, this seems to be a issue with KOS.  But to be thorough Trajectories and KOS  should still work together correct?XMbC1lo.png
