[1.8.x] Module Manager 4.1.3 (November 30th 2019) - Right To Ludicrous Speed

[Tonas1997 38]

Another question: how do I make it so that this patch

@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[ModuleEngineConfigs]:HAS[#type[ModuleRCS*]],!MODULE[ModuleRCS*]]:AFTER[RO-RCS]

is applied to all BUT parts named xxx and yyy (for instance)?

Is it possible to write a patch to make all parts have the rigid attachment tweakable enabled by default?

@PART[*]
{
	%rigidAttachment = True
}

There's also an option to force the tweakable to be visible in flight mode as well.

@PHYSICSGLOBALS
{
	%showRigidJointTweakable = Always
}

 

[Rocket Witch 540]

Great! Thank you @Starwaster!

So, I want to add a script that allows an ISRU to be able to refine ore into XenonGas. How do I add a new MODULE to an already existing part?

Create a new empty file something.cfg and put it into your own folder in KSP\GAMEDATA\mystuff to keep everything neat and tidy.

Choose the part you want to change and copy the module that converts ore into fuel from the converter, make appropriate changes to let it turn ore into xenon.

Copy the small template below into the file, add the stuff you want to do and then see if it worked.

(Cursive text is yours to change.)

Spoiler

@PART[partname]:
{
    MODULE[modulename]
    {

        stuff to make things happen goes here

    }
}

There’s a mod on CKAN called Xenon ISRU that does exactly that

why is module manager not compatible with ksp 1.7.3

It is. Works well.

I've just noticed that I'm getting warnings like:

[LOG 12:43:31.423] PartLoader: Compiling Part 'AirplanePlus/Parts/Engine/Early/51/part/AJEE_NapierLion_Prop'
[WRN 12:43:31.428] PartLoader Warning: Variable base_diameter not found in Part
[WRN 12:43:31.428] PartLoader Warning: Variable AJEE_thrustTransformName not found in Part

Spammed for every part AJEE loads. This is strange because:
A) I know those variables are in the parts, I put them there

Defined like this:

base_diameter = 1.25
AJEE_thrustTransformName = #$/MODULE[ModuleEngines*]/thrustVectorTransformName$

And used:

@rescaleFactor = #$@AJEE_TEMPLATES/AJEE_NAPIERLION/diameter$
@rescaleFactor /= #$@PART[AJEE_NapierLion_Prop]/base_diameter$
	
...

@MODULE[ModuleEnginesAJEPropeller]
{
	%thrustVectorTransformName = #$../AJEE_thrustTransformName$
}

B) The values those variables represent are being applied to the final part.

I'm not sure what those warnings are talking about, so I'm a little worried even though everything seems to be working as it should. Is this just part loader throwing spurious warnings because those are custom variables it doesn't understand but modulemanager deals with them as it should?

As I say, everything looks like it's working as it should. Just for my own peace of mind I want to know what those warnings are talking about.

Its saying it didn’t find those variables in the game’s module Part. 

Basically “hey I found this in the part CFG (small p) but I can’t find a reference for it in the Part module (large P)”. 

You can ignore those warnings as long as you’re using them for personal purposes and don’t expect the game to actually recognize them. 

Edit: here’s the API for the Part Class. It’s logical that it can’t find your variable there, because it’s yours

Thanks. That's what I thought, I just wanted to make sure .

That's KSP, not ModuleManager.  It's saying that it doesn't know what those fields mean.  ModuleManager has already completed its part at this point, here KSP is parsing the configs and compiling parts from them.

Presumably it would be a good idea to delete those variables when they're no longer needed then?

Yeah, that's frequently done in a patch that runs near the end.

[zer0Kerbal 513]

Am Back with another query:

found this patch (think it was from ( not Gordon Dry ) which is supposed to add the docking port type (size) to the part description - is this possible? suggestions solicited for fixing this patch.

Spoiler

// Add port type to description
@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[ModuleDockingNode]:HAS[#nodeType[*]]]:FINAL
{
	@description ^= :$: #$/MODULE[ModuleDockingNode]/nodeType$:
}

@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[ModuleDockingNode]:HAS[#nodeType[*]]]:FINAL
{
	dpinfo = #$/MODULE[ModuleDockingNode]/nodeType$
}

 

thank you in advance!

That was not from me.

Take a look at its Jenkins entry for the latest build.

btw what is the difference between

?

I ask because I'm on RO and use the latest ModuleManager-RO 4.0.2 - and always wondered why.

4.0.3 works fine for me, big thanks for making and maintaining MM

Other than release dates (and RO being yet in the 4.0.2 version), they appear to be identical:

The RO thing was a backport to make it work with KSP 1.3.x.  I don't think it's necessary anymore.
