I only know how to add pre-existing scatters to a new planet (like making hte trees normally only found on Kerbin appear on Duna), but I know of at least one mod that adds entirely new terrain scatters (or are they BG surface features? I don't know) - and I do not know how to do that.

And what I do know what to do, my understanding is a bit fuzzy on some points.

I understood well enough for this though:

To my mod world rald, I added grass tufts that appear underwater and at low elevation:

And I've tried trees too, but I ultimately cut them.

Thanks! I'm thinking about adding terrain scatters to RSS, but I'm a bit clueless on how to do that. From what I understand, Kopernicus also allows us to enable scatter colliders; trying to land on Europa's penitentes would be... interesting, to say the least :D

hi also sorry how come I still get this error in KSP version 1.8.1 using latest Kopernicus am I doing some thing wrong.

Reason I ask I am running a fair few other mods and I was using Kopernicus as its reqiured for beyond home.

With these two mods installed I some times get a black screen when I first load the game.

So I have to END TASK (KSP) and restart and some times it works fine though I also get the issue above about colliders that cause stutter and issues with SIM speed.

Sorry for all the questions :P

Thanks

It's not an error, it's a warning and nothing to be worried about. Kopernicus checks the surroundings in a certain distance for scatter object and if there are any, it will add a collider to them but once you are "out of range" of a scatter object, it removes the collider again. I guess this is supposed to reduce the RAM usage. These kind of log messages can be used by the mod creator to verify, this part of the mod is working properly.

No idea what's happend when your game shows just a black screen but when it happens the next time, you may want to save a copy of the log file and upload it for others to look at.

is there a way to disable the creation of colliders on these objects because it does cause the sim speed to go yellow a lot when this happens.

Thank you I shall upload the log next time.

I am going to install a second copy of KSP for just Kopernicus,beyond home,EVE,scatterer and sigma skybox replacment and get back to you on that OG file.

Thanks again :)

yes, you can add a MM patch to your game to disable it:

@kopernicus:final
{
	@body,*
	{
		@pqs
		{
			@mods
			{
				@landcontrol
				{
					@scatters
					{
						@value,*
						{
							@components
							{
								!scattercolliders {}
							}
						}
					}
				}
			}
		}
	}
}

Just create a textfile within your GameData folder, name it however you like and change the filename extension to .cfg. Then copy&paste the patch into it, save the file and restart the game.

I personally like to add custom patches in a specific folder which is named like "zzz_Final" or something like that, to keep everything sorted.

thank you so so much I shall deffo do this.

I was just testing again and here is what I have got so far.

With

Kopernicus

Beyond home

Sigma raplacment sky

Games starts up fine every time all the time no hangong after loading screen

 

With all my mods 100+ but no

Kopernicus

Beyond home

Sigma raplacment sky

game does also not freeze as far as I can tell.

 

But with all my mods and

Kopernicus

Beyond home

Sigma raplacment sky

Game seems to freeze a lot or all the time last few lines in the log are

Thanks so so much @4x4cheesecake

ok I am totaly stumped I though I got it I removed DEADLY REENTRY and boom got into main menu after loading TWICE.

So re added it to make sure and got into main menu I AM SO DAMN LOST HERE :(

 

EDIT
 

No idea still messing with this is so random.

If I close the AVC window once it tells me about out of date mods ETC ETC then it some times seems to work more often.

An way 3 days on this I cant do no more :(

The log is pretty clean for an install with that amount of mods, nothing really sticks out which would explain your issues. Did you monitor your RAM usage already? Planet packs usually add quite a bit to the RAM usage so maybe you just ran out of memory or you're close to it.

Btw you can also try to remove just the planet pack but not kopernicus. If it loads fine, the reason is not kopernicus itself ;)

Thanks so much for looking at the for me.

I did and RAM goes to about 8/9GB after its so called fully loaded and just sits there on a black screen but then IF I click the screen it will turn white and ask close or wait for program I notice EVEN IF I click wait RAM drops to like 500MB some thing aint right at all.

I have 16GB of RAM.

 

Also yep testing now will remove planet pack.

hmmmm it worked again with out planet pack that once but with every thing else installed.

but its worked with planet packed intsalled before any way...its way way to random and it takes a while to load up every time as said 3 damn days on and off with this :(.

 

Every time it does fail to load though I get this with out fail

says about dx11 that cant be good.

I have a 1080 NONE Ti version but still a pretty beefy GPU.

Drivers maybe?. let me see :) will update them but I aint confident oh I am so stressed now it frustrating to hell as its so random :(

 

Interesting

 

https://forum.unity.com/threads/d3d11-error-causing-builds-to-crash-on-some-devices.519599/

 

Any way very sorry I just realised I am posting in this thread when its not really the issue so sorry.

I might start a new thread on main forum.

Thanks so so much for all the help.

 

just for completness it very well may be video memory i have 8GB which is pretty high but KSP must want more lol some times

I'm not 100% on this, but I read about miniAVC causing problems at the moment? Try the mod ZeroMiniAVC and see if that helps.

Hi yeah I heard some thing about that going around.

I am sure I had zeroMiniAVC installed and read to remove it and use FULL AVC..I might be wrong no idea TBH.

I am running full KSP.AVC 1414 at the moment.

should I try zerominiavc then?

 

Thanks again all

HMMM I stand corrected its a mod to help with miniavc issues

I have reistalled and and I am retesting my mod pack

thanks chap I shall get back to you :)

at least, to put it simply. There may be more options check the wiki for full properties listings

Im not sure if this helps, i don't know the exact circumstances, but I know there were some issues with Deadly Reentry and RSS/RO/RP1 crashing/freezing before Main Menu.

In the RP-1 Installation Guide it states:

  1. Go into GameData\DeadlyReentry\Plugins and replace the .dll with this one:  <I deleted the link, if im not mistaken its not allowed to post .dll without source code, so please go to https://github.com/KSP-RO/RP-0/wiki/RO-&-RP-1-Installation-for-1.8.1 and scroll down to "Updating Broken Mods">
    • This is required for now because otherwise current DRE will randomly crash your game before the main menu.

...but goddamn, I can't find any documentation for any these fields! Why are there even two scatters nodes?! :D

I'm wading through this myself currently. I also haven't found much documentation. But I finally figured some of it out.

I basically looked some of the best examples I could find that did what I want:

 ...LandControl{scatters{...       is where you define new scatter objects (see Ecumenopolis and KSRSS mods for examples)

...LandControl{LandClasses{scatters...             is how you define where those objects will be placed:                  (see KSRSS mod)

The some of the Lat/Lon values in LandClasses are degrees, but shifted and converted to percents.

I haven't found a way to link specific scatters to biomes does anyone know if that is possible?

This is the billion dollar question. It makes sense for biome-specific scatters to exist - even more so than latitude-based placement.

Not at the moment.  I started a conversation with the Kopernicus devs about possibly adding that as a feature.  The initial reaction was that it might be possible, but as far as I know, there's really not much happening on Kopernicus at the moment.  Perhaps they'll look at it more seriously if and when work on Kopernicus ramps back up.
