Is there a solution to when MJ (latest Version) glitches during maneuver node executing? It Aims at the marker just fine, but doesn't begin the auto warping, nor does it begin the burn. (yes Auto warp is on etc etc) It happens with about 1/4 of my missions and not always from the very start, but once it happens it seems to persist with that vessel. (I read some where that manual maneuvering (spin and burn a few delta V's) snaps it back into shape... and I have had it do that occasionally but not over the last few days. I've tried re building the nodes but lately once a ship glitches it stays glitched... grrr. Just starting my bigger missions.

Atmosphere likely blocking a bunch but not nearly as much as the probe body is. Solar panels are best when highly exposed and directed at the sun. Yours are in a cave and may not point near the sun and thus are shadowed much of the time (let a day or even year pass to see if the sun aligns better. Right clicking on them gives you details like what is shading them if anything.

Changed Antenna Launch ID from 0 to 41 which matches the Stations ID (not the service mission) since it was easier to find that ID than the service Missions ID. Worked Like a Charm. Thanks!

Some Mods allow alternative launching sites. I haven't used any of them yet, but had plans for once my resource extraction systems were up... then the Great "1" made me abandon that... So you can use it as a new launch site with Mods... same with the launch site in the middle of the other continent... and a few dozen other places the Mods can add. https://kerbalstuff.com/mod/77/KerbinSide is one such example (relies on another mod - may or may not be packaged together so check).

Contract support please. I sent up a space station (to Min) but forgot the antenna... No problem because I have the twins KIS and KAS. So I made a service vehicle full of spare parts and an engineer. Went and attached an antenna... But it doesn't seem to want to trigger the contract component that mentions antenna. Do I need to leave the sphere of influence? I tried restarting the game. I tried undocking a part to see if that would prompt a "rebuild" of its capabilities. Ideas? PS can I suggest a Fun Pack addition? Paper Airplanes with the ability to give them a throw. Atmosphere = some lift. Low Gravity = long throw. etc. Could also make darts with a different model.

Dual Options please! Parachute would be awesome. Maybe Nerf the Glide ability - Came down without engine block and crossed multiple land masses (circumnavigation potential?). Saw a raft command in orbit but not once landed - is it in the engine section? Are you suppose to jettison that at some point?

Change Log mentioned that the parachute was being depreciated (removed) in favor of a lifting wing design. The lift and thus duration of the descent was insane! Just glide it in, ensuring that you bleed off speed. I splashed down in excess of 100 m/s and was fine. Have yet to test a dirt landing but the glide ability is so large I passed multiple land masses with ease. I would prefer a chute or both - it took so long but was kind of neat.

When Building you can right click on the items in the parts menu and it will give Charge units per unit time (sometimes seconds sometimes minutes). Tally up all the draws you plan to have running simultaneously (including probe cores and SAS). Once you have a units per second draw, pick solar panels up to that task with a little more for battery charging. Note that you should only count the panels that can see the sun simultaneously (so single square panels on opposite or 4 sides of the ship - only one counts). Be conservative since based on your positioning the panels may only get a fraction of their power so you want either to have it easy to align your station to the sun, or allow enough light to be caught at all angles. Then guesstimate (or research how to find) the amount of time your planned orbit will be in darkness. Make sure you have more than that time periods amount of power draw in the batteries. That way when in shadow of the planet and or moon your draws will be fed by battery, then be fed by your panels with a little extra planned in for charging the batteries. That should do it.

Found the offending culprit by removing each one in turn based on how much it interacted with Contracts or Biomes... Then went on to most complex mods... Turned out to be DMagic Orbital Science... and looked for an update and found this issue listed in the change log as being fixed by the new update! Yeah!

I'd like to figure a way to land within the range of KIS/KAS fuel lines but not on top. Its too close for safety and using a flag the errors stack (too close and you might miss toward the ship and hit that, if you miss away from the ship your too far for easy plumbing).

:cool:in 1.0.2 I have a moderately modded (~45 mods) game which seems to not detect certain contracts. Launch Site Engine test wont check off either of the requirements (Being on Kerbin, Proper Engine). Tourist Flyby Minmus wouldn't trigger despite 3 separate (not reloaded) penetrations of its sphere of influence. I assumed I was missing some part of the definition such as a certain altitude... I tried deleting everything from Game data (except Squad) and the launch pad contract functioned. Now I would rather not have to delete a mod, load, test, restore mod and saved state and repeate x 45 times. What rules should I follow to hit the most likely mods? Seems like those interacting with biomes, locations, and contracts would be better bets than parts kits. CactEye gives me a version warning. ContractsWindow deals with Contracts Any ideas for logically proceeding. Will try to list out names of Mods (but not all are easy to ID from folder and some Mods load other Mods so I dont recognize all of them)

Tried it with a purified Game Data folder and it worked. Now I wonder about the Minmus Tourist Flyby failure I had a week ago. I assumed I didn't know the full definition of flyby (Ie a certain minimum range vs sphere of influence). I burned almost all my fuel trying twice more before using the Mun to get me to an atmospheric burn. After all that I just hacked the save file. HOW DO I TRACK THIS GLITCH TO THE OFFENDING MOD? I have a bunch - would it have to be a mod that deals with contracts? or Biomes (since they all seem to be linked with contracts that need a certain place)? It would take a long time to turn off each mod in turn, load the save, and test. What rules can I use to find the biggest culprits. Ones that look red flagged to me: Cacteyes orbital telescopes (because it is not technically compatible with 1.0.2) ContractsWindow - Deals with contracts Final Frontier - Awards based on biomes and activities Any other catagories of mods to prioritize? (ie I assume parts mods are ok, etc)
