[1.1] SXT - Lack's Stock Extension [SXT-25-10APR16] - Basic 1.1 compatibilty


Lack

Recommended Posts

Did the same as @Vlad Lastname said. Works.

@PTNLemay, edit your .json file on CKAN folder, find the "SXT" part, under v25.1 change the repo's path, as mentioned by Vlad. Worked like a charm for me too! It installed via CKAN normally and everything works. Quote me if you find any trouble.

(* remember to uncheck the 'auto-repo-update' thing under CKAN Options tab before doing this. You can re-check the option after performing the install)

Hope the dev fixs this quickly :P

Is there a special way of doing this?  I tried to open it with NotePad but it freezes and crashes Windows Explorer.

Oh, this kind of files are way too "heavy" for NotePad or WordPad.

Besides, if you plan to mess with this kind of thing (editing config files etc), I recommend you download a little program called "NotePad++" for windows. Then just right-click the file to open it with NP++. Then find and edit the lines of code I said before. This program is somewhat a little more complex then the default NotePad, but once you get used to it, it's also waaay more powerful. That's gonna do the trick for you! Enjoy it :)

Just got a weird bug with TG-T2 Wheel block where whenever the wheels made contact with the ground the physics freaked out and sent the truck as a whole flying. Only when the wheels touched the surface though. I have the the most recent download of the mod and I have KSP 1.1.2. Any thoughts?

Glad to hear you're enjoying the parts. I've got RPM support for some of the cockpits, but I don't plan on adding it to some of the older (generally early tech-tree) plane cockpits with analogue dashboards.

The ASET avionics props do have loads of very lovely analogue flight instruments. I remember there was a module manager patch before that let you have a steady "upgrade" path from all analogue instruments to modern glass cockpit with the standard Mk. 1 in career mode. But I think that died with KerbalStuff (and the revamp of the Mk. 1). But yeah, RPM glass cockpit might not be good for some of them ("He-111 with satnav? Now this will have an impact on the war effort!").

 

I know you don't take direct requests for parts, but I'd like to ask if you'd think about giving us the cockpit+nose of the beautiful Avro Lancaster (B Mk X; since that's the model of the one I can go take photographs of; VR-A is a sexy plane, and boy is it amazing to see her fly...)? Since we already have the wonderful He-111 cockpit (I swear I'm trying to glue that and the Otter cockpit on everything...; 'cause who doesn't wany an He-111 in space?), and the Merlins to power the thing (and the Mk3 cargobays to deliver all of the ordnance science). But it might be a bit redundant what with having the MRBL-8 for our Mk3 strategic bomber science delivery vehicle purposes.

Is anyone else getting a weird bug where the propeller only plays sound in one ear?

This is a problem apparently floating around almost every single mod that has props in it.  Firespitter and KAX are both experiencing it and you've now confirmed that SXT is as well.  Someone in the FS thread recently posted some info they tracked down that might (or might not) be related to it.

Hello! I'm not PTNLemay, but I'm having the same problem and I'm quoting you because I've found trouble. 

I changed my .json file's repo path for SXT to the correct link as you advised, and I'm still running into the same problem. Do I need to change anything else on that file for my changes to stick, or to be valid? 

I couldn't find the 'auto-repo-update' setting under CKAN options... that might have something to do with it. Please advise.


Also, if you don't mind, please explain to me what "repo" means so I can stop feeling sheepish. :)

Thanks!

EDIT: I fixed it! Now I'm just stuck with the same error for Taerobee, and can't find a stable mod release for it... Any pointers?

Edited by MitchS
Added picture of error. Then fixed broken picture of error, but apparently didn't. Can you guys see my picture, or is it just me?

@Christoph Lipkathe wheel parts have not been updated yet for KSP 1.1 and thus they are completely broken.

Dammit, that's a pity to hear. I was banking on the Friendly Yellow Truck as an efficient means to go places at the KSC to do some science. Looks like I'm still stuck with the Lame Duck approach (read: wingless plane; not enough science points for rover wheels yet).

Any ETA for a fix?

also maybye adding NFE/kerbalatomics modules to the nuke engines.

i would be happy to write the patches myself as soon as i work through some other compatablility patches im doing for myself.

FYI - three of the prop engines will throw NREs in the editor and in flight under circumstances I can't figure out (they won't do it if only SXT is installed on otherwise Stock game).

Here's a patch that solves whatever the incompatibility is with another of the 78 mods I'm using - don't know exactly why (went and looked at other props that worked, they had these elements and SXT ones didn't):

Spoiler

@PART[SXTJ213|SXTPWR2800|SXTNK12M]
{
    @MODULE[FXModuleAnimateThrottle]
    {
    dependOnEngineState = True
    dependOnThrottle = True
    }
}

  Hide contents

@PART[SXTJ213|SXTPWR2800|SXTNK12M]
{
    @MODULE[FXModuleAnimateThrottle]
    {
    dependOnEngineState = True
    dependOnThrottle = True
    }
}

 

This is due to an edge case stock bug.  As it stands, dependOnEngineState default to false, which means that the animation depends on the vessel's main throttle, however, trying to access that causes NREs in the editor.  Setting dependOnEngineState to true is really better anyway.  I can provide more info on what the parameters are and how to use them if need be.
