Stelith61 Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Would it be possible to allow the ports to freely rotate as hinges? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been curious about this option as well, but I been thinking about using a docking port as a 5th wheel trailer hitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor rotation and free rotation are very different things from a ConfigurableJoint point of view. Edited March 7, 2019 by peteletroll ... sorry...

Redacted Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 (edited) @peteletroll Could you add an indicator / marker showing the orientation of the docking port while its selected? Example: Its home position vs its current position. This would help properly align objects both in the VAB and orbit. Thank you in advance!

The angle between docking ports should visible in the right click menu when the rotation is enabled. Make sure you have the latest release of DockRotate.

Redacted Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Didnt have a log as my screen was black. Had to kill KSP and then verify the base files. When i tried a second time same result. Dropping the mod, everything loaded up fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also you can read this post to find the output_txt.log file based on your operating system. If you can, follow these instructions when you report a problem. The info in the files can make it much easier for mod authors and others to help you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redacted Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 Tried the mod again and was able to load in. Yet the mod doesn't appear to be working correctly. Tried to upload the log and the txt file is HUGE. Would have to Paistebin it if you still want it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurgut Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Hi @peteletroll , I've got some trouble with dock rotate on 1.6.1, when I rotate my docked ports, just after the rotation, they reset to the position they were first.. Both ports have rotation enabled I've got KJR (recompile), and restock mod (changes stock texture, so docking ports textures are changed, but not how they behave/work) Any idea? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is DockRotate (and NodeRotate) mentioned in your KJR config.xml? @linuxgurugamer's KJR fork should be OK, you can try copying config.xml from there.

DownHereInChile Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Help! I can preview the rotation in the hangar, but nothing happens in flight. I am not using KJR or Tweakable Everything, so I'm very confused. The angle gauge on the right-click menu displays very small (fractions of a degree) changes in rotation, but nothing visible. No rotation sounds either. Has this been addressed before? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
