laco_spb Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Dear @Tonka Crash, thank you very much for trying to help me, I really appreciate it. I already had such a configuration. Why should I accept her again? This instruction does not make sense. Please think 2 steps forward, starting from the beginning. Should I install "Docking Port Alignment Indicator" for version 1.4? and he should earn? Sorry, my butt burns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laco_spb Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Yes, installing the version of Docking Port Alignment Indicator 6.8.2 for KSP 1.4.1-1.4.4 all worked! (with my version of KSP 1.7) I would like to ask @Tonka Crash the next time, in a similar situation, to offer the requesting help to install the old version. And how to do it is a completely different question to which he can answer for himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonka Crash Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 @laco_spb I'm glad this worked for you. I'm not sure what you are asking in the last post. To get my attention in a thread you can "tag" me in a post using the @. If the user name is in blue it worked if not it didn't. When it's in blue I get a notification for the post. @Tonka Crash is not the same as @ Tonka Crash. You start typing @ followed by the user's name and then click on a name to insert it as a tag. In general old mods work fine on current KSP as long as nothing in KSP has changed in a way that affects the mod. When I want to try an old mod that's new to me, I check the forum thread. When things break users are very vocal about complaining, so you will quickly see a thread fill up with complaints and problem reports about broken mods. No complaints usually mean no problems. This applies to mods for 1.4 or later. At 1.4 the version of Unity the game is built upon was changed. This forced most mods to update for 1.4, but may haven't needed changes since then. I did find a mod from 1.2 that still worked, but these are much rarer. Like I said in my last post the only true test is to try it yourself.

jpinard Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I can't get this to show up the game's main toolbar in space mode. I can make it show up on the blizzy toolbar, but I'd really like it to show up on the main toolbar but it's not an option when I click the wrench. What am I doing wrong?

Ive also had a break from KSP (it was the v2 announcement that got me back into it.) Using v1.7.3 on Mac (so no jy for V2) DPAI working perfectly for me. Perhaps check your installation logs? Hope that helps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have the latest version of the Toolbar including dependencies installed?

It is to be expected with a change in Unity and KSP version. If you had read the post above, you would have seen that they are on 1.7.3. @VoidSquid gave the correct information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not talking about 1.8, it is well known and was before release, that many mods wouldn't work with it. For my part, I'll stay with 1.7.3 for a good while, everything works as it should Edited October 18, 2019 by VoidSquid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VoidSquid Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Yes, these versions are the latest for KSP 1.7.3 (probably @linuxgurugamer is already working on updating them for 1.8, though with the ridiculous numbers of mods he maintains and has adopted, it might take a while) and work perfectly fine.

litemaster Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 FYI - DPAI 6.8.3 seems to work fine in 1.8. I successfully docked at Mun Station, down to Mun Base and back up again. (and I'm really bad at docking without this mod) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddavo Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Oh no, this seems to be broken since KSP v1.8.1 update yesterday. Is anyone else experiencing this? The window toggle has disappeared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think by default it is off, I usually have to go in the DPAI Settings.cfg and set forceStockAppLauncher = true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micha Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Yes, if Blizzy's toolbar is installed, DPAI will default to using it instead of the Stock Launcher. There's an option to force using the Stock Launcher instead. You can either use the in-game settings to change which toolbar to use (requires a restart), or you can edit the settings file using a text editor before starting the game.

TanDeeJay Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 (edited) I have been constructing a habitat ring for my space station and found that to get up I needed to break it down into smaller parts that I dock together in space. Now I initially thought it would be easy to align the parts using this mod, but I had to rotate the parts slightly on my lifting rocket to get the parts to fit inside the large faring. Now I've found that when i go to dock the parts, the rotational alignment is off. I was hoping that the rotational alignment marker would be at one of the N/S/E/W compass points, but I've found in reality that the alignment is off by about the amount I rotated the parts by to get them to fit my launch vehicle. So my question is would it be possible to add a function to this mod so that in the VAB/SPH, this mod adds a marker on a selected docking port displaying its rotational position so that I can set it at build time and be sure that when I get into space, I find my docking ports have the correct rotational alignment?

Dave7 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 @TanDeeJay check out the dockrotate mod. It will let you rotate the sections after docking to get them aligned properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
