KSP version 1.1.2 Game regularly crashes when I hit "Revert to Launch/VAB". Not every time, but over 50% Mods (installed through CKAN): [x] Science - 4.17 DMagic Orbital Science - 1.2.4 Docking Port Alignment Indicator - 6.4 EVA Transfer - 4.0 Field Experience - 1.0.3.1 Indicator Lights - 0.8 Kerbal Engineer Redux - 1.1.1.0 Kerbal Planetary Base Systems - v1.0.12 MechJeb 2 - 2.5.7.0 MechJeb and Engineer for all! - 1.2.0.0 Modular Flight Integrator - 1.1.4.0 Module Manager - 2.6.24 Procedural Fairings - v3.17 RCS Build Aid - 0.7.7-14 (manual install) Stockalike Mining Extension - 0.93 Trajectories - v1.6.1 Log: https://www.dropbox.com/s/0k2pig0a0wepr5f/output_log.txt?dl=0

I'm having this problem. At first it seemed to be only happening in VAB but now it happens at random times. Sometimes while staging but also while right clicking on a part in flight, switching to map mode, throttling up and even just moving the camera. I've tried a clean install with no mods and I've tried both 32bit and 64bit. No noticeable difference. There's nothing useful in the output logs and there's no crash dumps created. Windows error reporting shows it as an Application Hang ID:1002 paired with a WER ID:1001. I zipped up an error report from windows in case it helps anyone fix this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/sy70grbffhhkmxh/Report.rar?dl=0

I just found an fascinatingly coincidental calculation while planning an extension to my network. So I already have my base constellation set up around Kerbin: 3 sats equally spread around an equatorial orbit with an orbital radius of ~1400km (800km altitude) and each carrying a mid-range omni and a relay dish. Next step in my exploration program is to send an unkerballed rover to the farside of the Mun and for that I obviously need to be able to relay the signal. I like to keep things lite so I decided to aim for a single relay satellite at the Mun end rather than the full three. The first problem was how to make sure the relay stays above the farside so that I can get full-time coverage of my already-sure-to-be-tediously-longwinded rover mission. If this was the real world then I might consider shoving it into the L2 point and hoping it stays there long enough to complete my mission. But KSP uses a single-body physics approximation so there aren't any Lagrangian points. So instead I settled for putting my relay just beyond the Mun's SOI, so that it's orbiting Kerbin slightly faster than the Mun. This means that eventually it will overshoot the Mun and become useless but I did the calculations and made sure it would be in position long enough to land my rover and have a good look around. (Interestingly this puts it very close to where the L2 point would be, because L2 is generally found close to the radius of the smaller body's Hill sphere - presumably the real-world basis for calculating KSP's SOIs) The next problem was to make sure that if I put a relay satellite here it wasn't going to be inside the shadow of my Kerbin constellation. So I drew some diagrams and did the calculations based on the point where my 3 KerbSats would be casting their longest shadow. I used their actual orbits in the calculation and then got lazy (while erring gently on the side of caution) with plotting the signal's path past the Mun (I pretended the Mun was a cube). But the figure I arrived at for the longest signal shadow cast by the Mun was: 2,431,028.1 m... And the SOI of the Mun (according to KSP wiki)? 2,429,559.1 m This seems to be more of a happy coincidence than anything derivable (although if someone wants to prove me wrong, I would love to see it) but it seemed like too beautiful a coincidence not to share

Yes to all of the above. But I have solved the problem laterally... I plugged a mouse into my laptop instead of using the touchpad like usual. Now it works perfectly. Looks like my touchpad doesn't register mouse clicks while I'm holding down a key on the board. But KIS is working just fine

This is my first time trying KIS and it just isn't working right. Inventories are fine and I can drag and drop objects from the inventory but I can't seem to attach anything or grab any objects that have been dropped. I've tried with screwdriver and wrench. I've tried various combinations of pressing and holding x/h/g along with mouse buttons. I've tried disabling all other mods. I've tried using various different objects to attach. Nothing works. When I try to attach a part, the log shows: [Log]: [KIS] StartPointer(pointer) [Log]: [KIS] Surface node set to default [Log]: [KIS] Cancel key pressed, stop eva attach mode [Log]: [KIS] StopPointer(pointer) And when I try to pick up a dropped part: [Log]: [KIS] StartPointer(pointer) [Log]: [KIS] Surface node set to default [Log]: [KIS] Create & drop part [Error]: Actor::setLinearVelocity: Actor must be (non-kinematic) dynamic! [Error]: Actor::setAngularVelocity: Actor must be (non-kinematic) dynamic! [Log]: [KIS] StopPointer(pointer) Any ideas?
