@Atlas Gaming I'm curious how you came up with this?

Would be fantastic if this could be, would mostly eliminate my aversion to part clipping.

And for those modders who have lots of parts, it's a lot of work. Is there a way to take a dragcube and calculate a volume? What units are these?

I'll have a small update out soon. The volumes are extremely rough, but it will work the way you are trying to use it.

I’ll take a look at it

Also And

Made some good progress last night. I now have the functionality to do a simple Execute Next Maneuver Node This will be included in the mod. I need to add some options, such as How far in advance of the node to start the burn (as a percentage of the full burn) How far off of pointing at the maneuver node would be allowed to be able to start the node Whether to do a full power burn or have a short throttle down period at the end Minimum throttle setting for the throttle down period Also need to add code to stop any warping in progress. Let me know if you can thing of any other options useful for this functionality

Thank you so much, working like a charm

That is a nice surprise

I never said there were no other solutions. In fact, the dev team for KSP2 has stated that they are working on improving the available tools. Just don't expect a full autopilot like Mechjeb

Probably in the OP

Nice image. Most likely there will NOT be black holes..

They did say that they wanted to improve that aspect, sx o it might be best to wait and see

And sometimes, something which seems simple to you is really quite complex, to the point that it's not worth doing. This , IMHO, is one of those things

yes, as long as you do it correctly

Did you specify the GameData directory in the settings for the plugin?

Then you'd better prepare yourself for disappointment, it's going to be there.

Huh? Where do you get that from? The phrase "it's the basis of the game" doesn't need playtime to know it's true, since KSP2 is a sequel to KSP1

Very helpful, thanks So all I need (for now) is to get the correct targetOrientation for each of the various autopilot modes, including a maneuver node I got the maneuver node angle working. Regarding the Vector3.Angle, it's not obvious whether the vessel is pointing close to the node or in the opposite direction. I think I can live without it, but would like to know if there was a way to get a full 0 (pointing straight at th etarget orientation) to 180 (pointing away from the target orientation) I though I had it working, but it's not perfect. This seems to be somewhat working: Vector3 currentOrientation = FlightGlobals.ActiveVessel.ReferenceTransform.up; //up is foward Vector3 targetOrientation = //your desired direction manNode.nodeRotation.eulerAngles; manNode.nodeRotation.ToAngleAxis(out float angle2, out targetOrientation); float angle = Vector3.Angle(currentOrientation, targetOrientation); GUILayout.Label("Angle to node: "); GUILayout.TextField(angle.ToString("F2")); When pointing to the maneuver node, the angle is 90. when pointing directly away from the maneuver node, the angle is 90 Anywhere else, it's very odd and not consistent

Take a look at KRASH

Would definitely be helpful

I need to be able to know how far off a vessel is pointing from what one of the modes (selectable). For example, I would need to know how far off a vessel is from pointing Prograde, and also, would be nice to be able to get the rate at which the vessel is changing orientation. I believe this would need Quaternions, which I really don't understand :-( Good news (for me) is that I just need to know how far off it is, doesn't really matter which direction it is off in. Any help would be appreciated. I found this code, which I think may be part of what's needed. It seems to get the angles for pitch, yaw and roll of the vessel, I believe that if I can get the same for the desired direction, then it's a simple matter of subtraction. private Quaternion updateHeadingPitchRollField (Vessel v) { Vector3d CoM, north, up; Quaternion rotationSurface; CoM = v.CoM; up = (CoM - v.mainBody.position).normalized; north = Vector3d.Exclude(up, (v.mainBody.position + v.mainBody.transform.up * (float)v.mainBody.Radius) - CoM).normalized; rotationSurface = Quaternion.LookRotation(north, up); return Quaternion.Inverse(Quaternion.Euler(90, 0, 0) * Quaternion.Inverse(v.GetTransform().rotation) * rotationSurface); } Quaternion attitude = updateHeadingPitchRollField(ActiveVessel); float pitch = (float) ((attitude.eulerAngles.x > 180) ? (360.0 - attitude.eulerAngles.x) : -attitude.eulerAngles.x); float yaw = (float) attitude.eulerAngles.y; float roll = (float) ((attitude.eulerAngles.z > 180) ? (attitude.eulerAngles.z - 360.0) : attitude.eulerAngles.z);

Just ran into the discovered undiscovered body locking up space center last night. Also the Research Bodies not working in space. This post helped fix it:

Just changes the texture
