Well since my last 3 posts haven't shown up. Here are my results on what I found. Currently the only winch with the gui problem is winch1 (Horizontal stack winch). I added the line of code that was missing, that was on the other three. Unfortunately it did nothing to help the problem with the missing gui. MODULE { name = KASModuleWinch maxLenght = 80 cableSpring = 1000 cableDamper = 0.1 cableWidth = 0.04 motorMaxSpeed = 1 motorAcceleration = 0.05 powerDrain = 0.3 headTransformName = head headPortNodeName = portNode connectedPortNodeName = bottom anchorNodeName = anchorNode evaGrabHeadPos = (0.05, 0.01, -0.11) evaGrabHeadDir = (0,0,1) evaDropHeadPos = (0.05, 0.01, -0.16) evaDropHeadRot = (180.0, 0.0, 0.0) ejectEnabled = true <--------Added this ejectForce = 20 <--------Added this lockMinDist = 0.08 lockMinFwdDot = 0.90

In the cfg files, I did find that the Horizontal Stack Winch is missing a line in the cfg MODULE { name = KASModuleWinch maxLenght = 80 cableSpring = 1000 cableDamper = 0.1 cableWidth = 0.04 motorMaxSpeed = 1 motorAcceleration = 0.05 powerDrain = 0.3 headTransformName = head headPortNodeName = portNode connectedPortNodeName = bottom anchorNodeName = anchorNode evaGrabHeadPos = (0.05, 0.01, -0.11) evaGrabHeadDir = (0,0,1) evaDropHeadPos = (0.05, 0.01, -0.16) evaDropHeadRot = (180.0, 0.0, 0.0) lockMinDist = 0.08 lockMinFwdDot = 0.90 } This is the Vertical Stack winch, Horizontal radial winch, and Vertical radial winch. Everyone one of these winches has this line of code in it. MODULE { name = KASModuleWinch maxLenght = 50 cableSpring = 1000 cableDamper = 0.1 cableWidth = 0.04 motorMaxSpeed = 2 motorAcceleration = 0.05 powerDrain = 0.5 headTransformName = head headPortNodeName = portNode connectedPortNodeName = bottom anchorNodeName = anchorNode evaGrabHeadPos = (0.05, 0.01, -0.11) evaGrabHeadDir = (0,0,1) evaDropHeadPos = (0.05, 0.01, -0.16) evaDropHeadRot = (180.0, 0.0, 0.0) ejectEnabled = true ejectForce = 20 lockMinDist = 0.08 lockMinFwdDot = 0.90 } I don't know if having these missing from the cfg (ejectEnabled = true and ejectForce = 20) is causing the problem, but I will add these lines to find out.

I forgot to remove the AIES parts, but I did find out it's only the Horizontal Stack Winch that has the GUI and control problem.

Found a bug! All the winches except the Horizontal Stack Winch show up in the gui and work just fine. It seems the Horizontal Stack Winch has the GUI issue that people have been complaining about.

So it seems I have the GUI problem, and I have no idea what is causing it. I have removed all mods, uninstalled the game completely, and just added KAS 0.4.5 to the gamedata folder and still come up with the gui saying rename the winch. All the logs state everything is fine. Here is a small log. [LOG 01:16:18.988] [untitled Space Craft]: Ready to Launch - waiting to start physics...
