warlord13f Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I am sure you are busy. I was just wondering if there is plans for this mod working for the latest version of KSP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linuxgurugamer Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 Minor update, 0.5..71 Renamed DLL for CKAN compatibility If you install this by hand, delete the old one first before updating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fittedorphan68 Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 @linuxgurugamer This mod is by far, without a doubt, the best Quality of Life mod I have used yet! Thank you for re-bringing it back to life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotel26 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 (edited) tl;dr KSP mods -- including Haystack, Kerbal Konstructs -- seem to rely on the assumption that cwd is the KSP base directory (buildId.txt, GameData) in order to find their own assets, causing pointless problems. This is just exploratory. I've been running Haystack for three years under Linux and wondering why the appearance of the UI is so bad. (Under Windows, previously, it was quite pretty.) It appears that Haystack makes the assumption that the cwd is the KSP base directory (the one containing buildId.txt and GameData) and uses this to find its own assets (textures, icons). This isn't my case on Linux Mint using an App Launcher on the desktop. Kerbal Konstructs assumes the same and this one problem stopped me using it altogether also for three years. In my opinion, it's not enough that there is a work-around for this, since people don't know and aren't told about it; they just have to go without. It's possible this is a KSP Linux-only (or Steam environment) bug but I do regard it as a bug to be fixed, one way or another (e.g. AppContext.BaseDirectory.). Have I got this wrong? And is there anything that can be done? [keywords: Linux] Edited May 27, 2021 by Hotel26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While your comment is correct, at this late date it's not reasonable to expect every mod author to update their mods for this case. In many cases, the authors aren't around any more, and in my case, I have too many mods do this to,. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotel26 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 (edited) 6 hours ago, linuxgurugamer said: update your app launcher OK then. For other desperados, here's the method (Ubuntu, Mint): https://askubuntu.com/questions/50085/setting-the-working-directory I added this line to the launcher in ~/Desktop: Quote Path=/home/kmk/env/games/KSP/1.7.3.2594 You can get your own Path from the Exec line in the launcher and truncate it to just the path to the directory. In the case of Kerbal Konstructs, this is especially egregious because, not only does the mod not work, but you cannot deploy to the runway and you cannot exit KSP. Kaput. (I've reported it in that topic.) Edited May 28, 2021 by Hotel26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a false alarm and inspection of the code and some better testing have shown that the latest Haystack works fine. In debugging a similar problem in Kerbal Konstructs, I learned that one may change the CKAN "minimum version" setting and, as a result of doing so, the latest Haystack updated into my KSP 1.7.3 installation. This is what rectified the textures/icons problem in Haystack, I believe. Please ignore the report above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logs and context--in this case a screenshot--are the minimums needed to track down any error, especially after @linuxgurugamer said he didn't know what you were referring to.

linuxgurugamer Posted July 12, 2021 Author Share Posted July 12, 2021 (edited) Ah, so these are two NEW items added in KSP 1.12. So I need two new icons, do you think you can make a stab at creating them? Also, I looked in the game, and since stock doesn't display those using anything different, I'm not sure they should be included. What happens when you click those missing icons, does anything get displayed as a result? and if so, what icons are used to display?

The icon for 'Deployed Ground Part' appears in the TrackStation, with the name 'Deployed Science' . I'm not sure, I'm just inferring this since this icon doesn't appear in Haystack... I see now that Haystack have the filter 'Deployed Science Part'. So I don't know what this icon should represent... I try to find where Squad put icons used in the program, but I don't find any. I can try take a screenshot and cut the icon, but I suck at image editing. As for the Dropped Part icon, I suggest using the same icon for Debris... But besides the icons, won't it be necessary to adjust the strings used too? * In my game, a very early carrear game, I don't have any object that matches this filters...

Qhat strings? I haven't looked into this yet, since it's something new, so maybe that would be obvious, but it's been a while since I worked on this mod, so not up on it's internals at this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the icons, I simply duplicated the 'Debris' and 'Deployed Science Part' icons so I don't get those white squares... I'm not sure what those filters should represent to propose or try to create icons for them! Anyway, the mod seems to be working fine as it is. Thanks.

Dominiquini Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Found another bug: Appears that some filters are not working. I was playing with deployable parts and see this: I deselect all the filters, but the windows continue to show some items. I have vessels and probes that was hidden, but DeployedScienceController and DeployedSciencePart are still showing, despite I turn it off!

Dominiquini Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 When I use the mouse scroll wheel to scroll the contents of the window, I also change the zoom of the scene. "Click Through Blocker" don't should prevent that? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game does not use it at all, therefore clicks and mouse wheel will always fall through to the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mangelhaft Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I have been having a hard time finding an answer to my problem with Haystack. I am running windows based KSP 1.11.2.3077 with Haystack ReContinued 0.5.7.3. Haystack appears to only load the stock KSP planets. I have Galaxies Unbound A Stellar Odyssey 1.0.2-3 and Titania 0.8 installed., but cannot locate vehicles when Haystack is sorted by celestial body. If I sort by time launched or vessel type, I can locate all deployed craft. Is Haystack running as coded, am I missing something in configuration, or is there a burp somewhere? Thank you for your time and help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81ninja Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 This is the mod I was looking for! Thanks for such great mods @linuxgurugamer Can I suggest a neat feature though? The ability to find ships that are currently docked to other ships (and which ship they're docked to). It'd be terribly useful to find ships parked in stations (esp. when there are dozens of them...) Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
