  1. Okay, the parachute-not-repacking thing happened again, this time with more detail and a better output log

    So, (after a few quicksaves and quickloads) I managed to land a remote guided drill craft on Duna. Drilled as much as I needed, got back in orbit, docked with the space station and quicksaved. Went on EVA to repack the chutes - everything worked without a problem. Then I managed to break a solar panel on the way back, so I just quickloaded since all I had to redo is repack the chutes. Except after the quickload it happened again. Got an output log here, I hope it helps this time. Looks like I'll be deorbiting this craft anyway, It's too fuel inefficient for the kethane I get from it - time to make a Duna kethane mining base!

  2. You need to look for the line that begins "name =" in the part.cfg file for the part you want to add, and the string after that is what you need to use in the stockPartName entry, so for the small surface light from the pack you are working with you would use 'stockPartName = W485_SurfaceLight' - note that capitalization is relevant and must be the same as the part.cfg.

    Ah now I get it, I was using the model name for it. Gonna try it soon and see if it works

    You trying to make something grab ?

    Trying to make them placeable in the containers and then grab them so I can place them on the station

  3. I think you could take a look into the addModule.cfg in the KAS folder - got a feeling you just have to add another entry here.

    Gave it a try, didn't work. Tried with this:

    ///////// SurfaceLight ///////
    GRAB
    {
    stockPartName = SurfaceLight
    evaPartPos = (0.0, 0.00, -0.15)
    evaPartDir = (0,0,-1)
    storable = true
    storedSize = 8
    attachOnPart = True
    attachOnEva = False
    attachOnStatic = False
    attachSendMsgOnly = False
    }

    Might be the "stockpartname" messing it up but I have no idea what to put in its palce, just "partname" didn't work either

  4. Well ChampagneBottle sure loves to spam the log. That log only shows construction though. Mind repplicating the incident and sending the following log? (preferrably without cb so that I don't have to search the log with glasses :P )

    Redid it (without CB), but now it seems to work without any issues :huh: Tried again after readding Champagne Bottle, again worked. Only difference between the tests I just did and the issue I had is that the tests were done via Kerbin landing and the issues themselves happened on Duna (both on the ship in the screenshot and on a refueler I sent for it). I'll probably be sending another flight to Duna sometime soon, if it happens there again, I'll send the output log

  5. Ah sorry, missed your post in the cacophony. Mind you to try that again and send an output_log.txt my way?

    But repacking is set under strict conditions: the parachute must have been deployed and cut in the past, be it through manual cut or ground contact cut, and the part can only be repacked if landed or in space.

    output_log.txt (got the one from Kerbal Space Program\KSP_Data, I hope it's the correct one)

    Yes, I'm sure it was ground cut, with so many parachutes you just can't miss the cut sound
