[Mission failed / No situation report available. Need .cfg]

I've found this on the Restock+ thread for the same problem, but this one works for any other mods that have deprecated parts still in their library. Future proofing I guess.

You just click the app launcher button again.  Maintaining the separate button caused a lot of inefficiencies in the old Unity system because it had to constantly check to keep the two buttons in sync.  With only one button, it knows when it has been pressed so no need to run checks every frame.

Interesting! Thank you for the response.

Will this work with KSP 1.2.2?

It does, even in 1.3.1

Small observation though. In order for it to find all the buttons, you must visit all the screens, so that the buttons load at least once.

Btw, do we still post bugs and such in the dev topic?

Because the airlock of the PPD-24 "Panorama" is at different sides when viewed IVA. And did you remove the stack attachment node from the top of the PXL-9 "Vista" or was there none at the first place?

Apart from these, the IVA-s are flawless, and I especially love the hologram kerbin, and the discount lenovo thinkpads.

Weird, the clean install didn't do that. Must investigate further...

Hello!

This is going to sound weird but bear with me: Your .mu files in NearFutureSpacecraft\Spaces are lagging the hell out of the Tracking Station. I've tested it, it only drops FPS when these files are present, and goes back to regular when removed.

Any idea? Mandatory log file is here.

[Expand the Engineers capability]

Hi!

I was wondering if there's a way (or an existing mod already) that makes it possible for Engineer kerbals on EVA to change some settings on parts that only can be set in the editor for now. For example: Thrust level on SRBs, your engineer walks up to it, and is able to set the thrust level slider.

Is there any way of accomplishing this? A smart MM patch perhaps? Any idea or addition is welcome!

Cheers

@LEGIONBOSS Those same fields (and all of the others for ModuleDockingNode) exist for this mod.

Setting those values just makes it so that both docking ports need to be rotationally aligned, which can be a little tricky since there are no visual indicators on the docking ports. So you could set the same values for the FlexoTube module and it should work, though I've never actually tested it. 

I did a few tests to determine which modification does it:

• Weird, I added a :FINAL modifier to this cfg, so that it changes the flexing ones too, and still nothing.
• I also tested the possibility that they can only dock in a specific rotation (tried docking in space while one of the craft was slowly rotating), and that didn't work either.
• I started commenting out lines in the cfg, and determined that changing snapRotation to true is what disables the thing. The captureMinRollDot line is fine.

Does this help?

[[1.8.x] DMagic's Modlets - Most KSP 1.8 Updates [10-29-2019]]

GOTCHA!

The mod SnapDock made by Xiphos Aerospace is what broke it!

The whole thing is a cfg file that contains the following:

@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[ModuleDockingNode]]:FINAL
{
	@MODULE[ModuleDockingNode]
	{
		captureMinRollDot = 0.98
		snapRotation = true		
		snapOffset = 5
	}
}

I guess these values shouldn't be tempered with next to your mod...

@LEGIONBOSS It should work fine, the docking port mechanics of the flexible ports are basically the same as the stock ports.

What does the flexible port say when you right click on it? There should be a status field with information about whether the docking port is in Acquire mode. You can also check if the magnets are turned off, but that wouldn't stop the flexible port from reaching out for the target port.

Here's what is says when in close proximity to a stock docking port...

And here it is in working order near another flexible one (after a little misshap)...

I also tried this experiment with a clean install (only this and MM in there),  and it works, so I'm gonna troubleshoot which one messes it up.

[[1.8.x] DMagic's Modlets - Most KSP 1.8 Updates [10-29-2019]]

Hi!

Docking a flexible port to a stock one should be possible right? Because somehow I can't do it. I even uninstalled the only mod that tempered with the docking ports, which is Simple Construction.

Here's how my test setup looks like...

Any ideas? Log file is right here. Thank you!

[[WIP] Nert's Dev Thread - Current: such nuke, wow]

Hi!

Just for redundancy, I'm here to post about a bug, and the solution that Mr. @domassimo had found.

When players have the Simple Construction mod installed, but not the full Extraplanetary Launchpads, the resource definitions for MetalOre and ScrapMetal are missing (since SC doesn't use them). Problem is, when you install Simple Construction, it creates just a few files in a rudamentary EL directory to work. Then SSPX picks up that directory (or something like that), and thinks that EL is installed, so those 4 MM patches will kick in, but then the game will freak out, since those 2 resources are missing.

2 files (SSPXR-B9TankTypes.cfg and SSPXR-Containers-Switches.cfg) need 2 - 2 lines changed in order to work properly, I'll paste these modified lines below.

Spoiler

This is from line 365  in SSPXR-B9TankTypes.cfg

B9_TANK_TYPE:NEEDS[ExtraplanetaryLaunchpads,!SimpleConstruction]
{
	name = SSPXMetalOre
	tankMass = 0.0000
	tankCost = 0.0
	RESOURCE
	{
		name = MetalOre
		unitsPerVolume = 1
	}
}
B9_TANK_TYPE:NEEDS[ExtraplanetaryLaunchpads,!SimpleConstruction]
{
	name = SSPXScrapMetal
	tankMass = 0.0000
	tankCost = 0.0
	RESOURCE
	{
		name = ScrapMetal
		unitsPerVolume = 1
	}
}

And this is from line 238 in SSPXR-Containers-Switches.cfg

SUBTYPE:NEEDS[ExtraplanetaryLaunchpads,!SimpleConstruction]
{
	name = MetalOre
	tankType = SSPXMetalOre
	title = #LOC_SSPX_Switcher_Cargo_MetalOre
	transform = MetallicOreDecal
}
SUBTYPE:NEEDS[ExtraplanetaryLaunchpads,!SimpleConstruction]
{
	name = ScrapMetal
	tankType = SSPXScrapMetal
	title = #LOC_SSPX_Switcher_Cargo_ScrapMetal
	transform = ScrapMetalDecal
}

 

Keep on doing awesome stuff! Cheers

You should probably post things like this in the dev thread, but glad you like.

I don't really understand the install structure here though, so SC doesn't need EPL, but needs EPL files? That will certainly cause a problem. It would be good to have someone who uses SC inspect the patches for compatibility.

Sorry, didn't know there's a newer one.

16 hours ago, domassimo said:

SimpleConstruction is basically Extraplanetary Launchpads with a less complex resource chain and uses only stock parts, so the mod adds no parts of its own. It does use the EL plugin though and keeps this in the original folder, adding only a different set of recipes and MM patches. Because it omits MetalOre and ScrapMetal as new resources, problems arise when other mods expect these.

A solution would involve separate patches for regular EL and when SimpleConstruction is also present. I'm not sure how easy it is to remove a resource from a tank with MM after the EL patch runs... A simpler solution would be to add those resource definitions (even if unused), but that's probably up to the SC dev (who dropped support last week, no new takers yet if I'm not mistaken).

edit: I had a look at the SSPXR-Containers-Switches.cfg. Perhaps a :NEEDS[ExtraplanetaryLaunchpads,!SimpleConstruction] for ScrapMetal and MetalOre would work near the end of the file. Can't test it right now though...

I did test it, and it works! Brilliant idea, I'll post it to the newer thread.

[[1.3+] Stockalike Station Parts Expansion [retired]]

Hi!

I believe I've found a bug of some sorts in the Redux version.

When you have the Simple Construction mod installed (but not Extraplanetary Launchpads, since SC is not dependent on it), the B9 part switch freaks out during game load about the "MetalOre" and "SrapMetal" resources not being defined. I saw they have the NEEDS tag, but still.

Since Simple Construction needs a few files from EL (but not the entire mod install), so I guess B9 picks up the directory and thinks that EL is installed, but then can't find the resource definitions.

Not sure if I'm the first to find this, but the B9 error message promts to quit the game so it's quite big. Commenting out the specific lines in SSPXR-B9TankTypes.cfg and SSPXR-Containers-Switches.cfg solved the problem, but making a duplicate resource definition for these freaks broke Simple Construction so it's not a good solution.

BTW I'm in love with the inflating parts and the leveling legs! (just to say something nice too)

Cheers
