Kurld Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I noticed the module manager dll in my gamedata directory, which came with this mod. After I got rid of that and the associated config files, my overheating issues disappeared. So, it must have over-written some of the modules by default? Seems odd and rude.

Cyst Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Ever since .90 I've been experiencing weird no-texture bugs with some/all parts some mods have to offer, same happens with these mods (procedural wings/parts/airships[?] with the exception of fairings).Right clicking on a part to select texture say something like *missing texture* / *no texture*.Any ideas what could the problem be?Thanks!

zilfondel Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 (edited) I've got a strange issue with tweakable parts after installing the SETI mod. Specifically, my solid rocket booster (first level) produces a different amount of thrust and TWR before I launch then after I revert to fly it a second time. For a roughly 2-meter tapered cone SRB, the delta-V goes from ~1,900 m/s and 1.6+ TWR to 1,500 m/s and 1.16 TWR, with no change to the craft itself. Although I have no experience with tweakable parts and SETI before, I find this behavior very odd.Worse, I'm running with KCT and the performance differs from where I design a rocket, simulate it (first time is OP, second time functions differently). Then once I actually build and fly the rocket, its overpowered again.Any thoughts? And its not just a misreported KER value, as the craft itself on the first launch accelerates like a bat out of hell, and once I revert and fly it a second time, performs much differently (slower, less thrust). This is making it quite difficult to properly design a craft, since with DR and FAR I keep losing critical parts (parachutes) to overheating on my small rockets.Ok, I think this may have had something to do with interactions between tweakscale and PP. I pulled tweakscale, as I actually meant to install tweakable everything instead.nope - see below. Edited April 3, 2015 by zilfondel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zilfondel Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Thank you - an additional infobit: On the issuetracker, i saw another thrust-related bug which supposedly happens when KIDS is installed and the option "thrust varies with ISP" is checked. This is the case for me, so perhaps this is related. Unlike what that issue states however, the thrust remains constant in the editor at the SPH.Here's a wild guess: When i tested those SRBs, i was actually surprised by the sheer amount of thrust they generated - despite them only being two with 40 thrust. Perhaps as soon as i enter flight, the thrust DOES reset to the default (much higher), so that might be why the burntime no longer matches and is much shorter?Hi, I've ran into this issue - its quite annoying. I just documented my findings here:http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/52882-0-90-Kerbal-Isp-Difficulty-Scaler-v1-4-2-12-16-14?p=1819831&viewfull=1#post1819831 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Balholm Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I have the same problem with Procedural Parts As MotoKid600. Just like him, I right click a part and the UI does not show up. However, if I click umpteen times in different places, it eventually shows up. It appears that I have to hit a specific "hot" pixel or something. (It seems to be on the midline of the tank, below center) It is very frustrating. Is there any other way to edit a Procedural part in the VAB, or a way to reliably make the UI show up? This is a serious issue and any advice anyone has would be greatly appreciated. What do the rest of you do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motokid600 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) @Peter Balholm - I can't for the life of me remember if I ever found a fix for it. What I can remember is switching to RSS with Real Fuels, so... Completely different situation. I remember working with liquid fuel and oxy at the time so I can't imagine it was the issue of having both RF and MFT installed at the same time. But for what it counts make sure that's not the case for yourself. If I remember correctly it was with smaller radial tanks I wanted monoprop in. ( or maybe it was a mono tank I wanted LF/O in ). It wouldn't let me open up the MFT ui to change it. But I switched over to RSS/RO soon after. Edited April 8, 2015 by Motokid600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Balholm Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 @Motokid600 - Thanks! I will certainly be using RSS and RealFuels, and have used them before. But, right now I am installing my mods a few at a time, after switching to 0.9.0. Anyone else have any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatcargo Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Hi! I too was looking for a way to reduce part count in-flight using proc parts for MKS/OKS bases. I won't comment on resources offered by proc parts - enough to say everything is where is should be.However i do hope that proc tanks could benefit with few textures from EL, TAC-LS and OKS/MKS. For example, MKS/OKS licensing is open enough to transfer textures to proc parts to allow more seamless looking crafts/bases. Does similar apply for EL and TAC-LS ?

EVDE Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 i seem to have a problem with the SRB's. I do not use 64 ksp, i do use FAR and deadly reentry.The SRB's seem to overheat very quickly and will even explode. I am sure it is not because i have to much to close together because i have only one. Can anyone tell me why this is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svm420 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 i seem to have a problem with the SRB's.

I am sure it is not because i have to much to close together because i have only one. Can anyone tell me why this is?Yes this is because deadly re entry rescale max temps for all parts. He also intelligently scale heat production. However with pp srbs heat is a factor of size. In the .cfg file for the srb there is a variable called heatperthrust. This variable isn't changed by DR and causes the srb to produce stock heat with reduced part max temp so your srbs blow up. You can open that .cfg and change that number to a lower number I feel they should never explode from there own thrust as long as it's reasonable. So I cut the number in half. YMMV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made a pull request to PP with a compatibility config that was accepted so it should be fixed in the next version. In the mean time throw the following in a cfg file.@PART[proceduralTankSRB]:AFTER[DeadlyReentry]:NEEDS[DeadlyReentry]{ @maxTemp = 1250 @MODULE[ModuleEngines] { @heatProduction = 55 } @MODULE[ProceduralSRB] { @heatPerThrust = 14 }} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaMichel Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 This is a great mod! I use it regularly. Thank you very much for it.Here is just a little feature request: An option to make slanted parts. This would be great for aircraft fuselages and side boosters. I think it could be implemented quite easily as a shearing transformation that is applied to all vertices of the final mesh, i.e. multiply vertices with the matrix (1, s, 0)(0, 1, 0)(0, 0, 1),where s is the amount of shear which should be adjustable with a gui slider.Just an idea.

cipherpunks Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 (edited) Being lazy, I thought I'll ask here: LiquidHydrogen & ArgonGas MM patch someone, with realistic tankage weights (that includes XenonGas modeled after Carbon/Kevlar/Epoxy/Ti commercial offerings)? Just need it to support NFP with RSS so far...And how to do those neat 45/55% (or 100%) buttons on tanks? Should I dig into ModularFuelTanks instead maybe?Nevermind, indeed I should. Oh, one more thing: seems like the latter is incompatible with AIES - tank size always stays the same despite I rescale them... But that's off topic I guess.

alexman142 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Can someone confirm if this mod at least runs on 1.0? I'm holding out playing until I can confirm it. All my other essential mods are up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HafCoJoe Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 (edited) Would it be hard to make a plugin to swap between stock part textures? I'm interested in making my own texture variants for the stock parts and be able to swap in editor between them.

Entropius Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 When this mod is updated for KSP 1.0, it might also be nice to add a procedural Ore tank. Just an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDBenson Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I'm pretty sure you can do custom tanks via config files, you just need to work out a reasonable capacity/volume set-up compared to stock then you can copy the config for a fuel tank and adjust it, either as a standalone mod or using ModuleManager?
