I found a strange bug regarding time warp and idle (deactivated) reactor cores. I am using Near Future Electrics to be specific. The core's life starts to rapidly count down from full lifespan after max timewarp. (rate7 = 6000000x in config)
Steps to reproduce:
-Place a vessel on the launchpad with a reactor.
-Do not activate the reactor.
-Time warp a couple of years ahead at max warp.
-Activate the reactor
-Watch the core life rapidly count down to 0 after time warpIf I do the same steps, but at the next highest time warp factor all is ok and can time warp till end of time without losing the core's lifespan when idle.

..ehm? What, in layman terms, am I supposed to do? Put the dll in a folder and drop it into gamedata?

Quick question: Is orbital decay part of RSS? I experience thar the Apo/Pe trickles steadily down with approx 0.1m/sec when above atmo (140km)

If you want to get to orbit with somewhat realistic payload fractions but want to keep KSP's simple fuel system, you can use the SMURFF mod which rebalances thrust, masses and fuel fractions.
Tried SMURFF. Previous orbits left me with 300dV. Now I have 3900dV with the same ascent parameters after installation.
BTW, I was astounded that RSS uses just 2,2 GB memory with 8192 textures and a bunch of other mods.

I'm assuming you're not playing with stock parts?
Have Space Y, but used just the Moa for the upper stage

Had my first try ever on RSS today. Great fun! Even with my 1500hrs KSP it took me 7 tries just to get to orbit
So what are you using for visual enhancements in RSS? EVE, scatterer, RVE?

So i downloaded the latest Version but i get massive Texture glitches. How can i fix this ?
For me this was introcuced in the very latest 1.1.2 patch some minutes ago

Could have sworn that the Karibou had the option to have its windows transparent earlier? Am I perhaps missing another mod that did this? (not thinking of the stock "ripped open" view).

@Proot Thank you for that very pleasant surprise. My jaw fell to the floor

Btw, I've found what causes "tsunami" bug, i.e. ocean out of position. Zooming in in IVA camera, then switching back to EVA. Ocean becomes misplaced, and camera FOV doesn't revert to normal.

You can also press backspace in IVA to reset the camera.

I am using some sci-fi tunes that I have put in the chatterer/sounds/SSTV folder and just renamed these soundtracks to sstv_01.ogg up to sstv_10.ogg, thereby replacing the original somewhat painful noises.
This all works fine and dandy so I wondered if is possible to use more than 10 files in this folder, or are there pre-defined "slots"? Would take forever to check out if, say 20, soundtracks works since they play randomly at long intervals.

@sal_vager I just had this revert issue happen again. The debug list said it was a NullRef at the time I pressed Revert Flight. "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"
-
Somehow the issue got reolved by entering another career and then back again. Wierd

uhh If it is using a kerolox config. The changes to the base plume removed smoke from that fuel type plume. That is to say it is intended. It was changed with the last update to the base RealPlume mod.
Ok, I guess it is by design then and no bug.
-
Has anyone else experienced problems with reverting lately? The game does not show the dialog box "revert to launch" and "revert to flight assembly" after clicking Revert Flight from the ESC-menu.
I am talking about flights that are 100% non-swapped to other vessels or to Space Center. And yeah, normal difficulty.
Also after having crashed there is no options anymore, just "revert to launch 1 sec ago" which is just plain wrong for a flight that started several minutes ago. I have to Ctrl-Alt-Del to get passed missing dialog options.

Some pictures from launch, 16.000m and orbit. (Yes I know there is no smoke trail in orbit, just wanted to show the plume) Plume is ok, but no smoketrail. Using latest build 0.10.6 running on standard directX on a nVidia GTX980
Will post a log a in a bit
-
I am not getting any smoke FX from the mainsails, just the plume. Other engines are fine with both fireFX and smoke trail.

If I keep hitting refresh, KSPRC for 1.1 will release sooner, right? Right? :-D
Seriously, though. The artistic direction of this mod is fantastic. Love it.
My heart skips a little each time a new post is available in this thread

I know it's normal for FAR to cause some FPS loss, however with this fresh 1.1 release the hit seems much much bigger than usual.
I'm also seeing much higher CPU usage compared to stock, this is normally a good thing, but I'm getting 70-90% cpu usage in the space center view with nothing happening. I must also add this doesn't happen the first time you load the game, but once I go in flight the CPU usage jumps up and stays that way when I get back to space center view. Tested with both 32bit and 64bit windows builds with just FAR and scatterer installed, CPU is an i5-2400 @3.1 Ghz, no errors or anything weird in the log.
Just wanted to chime in.. Yeah, my i4790K @4GHz, GTX 980 went down from a steady 60fps (capped) to 1/3 ratio physics time. Sorry no logs atm, got a sprained wrist today and cannot reproduce.

Awesome mod by the way. Took some effort to get into, but rewarding.
-
Sorry, my bad. Throttle controlled avionics had somehow been activated, most likely by a hotkey in heat of battle.... Disregard that post.....
-
Having a severe issue with 1.5.2 on 1.1 pre. When I turn off the master switch, I do not fully regain control over the craft again. Control surfaces work, but the throttle is stuck on some auto-mode, using thrust limiting and regulating throttle. I cannot lower the landing gear either. Even reverting to a savegame from the same flight does not help.

Is it a new feature in 1.1.2 that the ablator is slowly decaying when cruising through space (vakuum)? I noticed this first when on a very long journey that lasted 7 years. The 1.25m heatshield had lost about half of its ablators. I do have a few reactors onboard for EC, but my cooling system is way overbuilt for them. Internal heating should not be a problem.
