Hey all,
After getting back into KSP recently and going nuts launching ships left and right in career mode I soon found myself desperate for a way to quickly pick out the ships in the Tracking Station that needed my attention next. I saw a couple of other users requesting this feature over the years and some disappointment when the latest update didn't have it. So I decided to try my hand at an add on. Here it is. It's a little thing, but it saves me some sanity, of which I have little to spare.
I hope some of you will find it useful!
ManeuverQueue
ManeuverQueue is an add on that allows you to sort and filter objects displayed in the Tracking Station list. It was developed and tested against KSP v1.1.3 and v1.2
Installation
Github: https://github.com/FatHand/ManeuverQueue/releases
Curse: https://kerbal.curseforge.com/projects/ksp-maneuverqueue
Make sure to get the correct archive for your version of KSP (1.1.3 or 1.2) add the contents of the archive to your KSP GameData folder.
Usage
When the add on is installed you will see a small toolbar at the top left of the Tracking Station. Switching modes will sort and filter the list in the tracking station.
MET
- Shows the default Tracking Station list
MNV
- Shows only those ships with maneuvers nodes
- Sorts ships by next maneuver node time, earliest first
- Ships with maneuver node times in the past will appear at the top of the list
- A ship is only listed once even if it has multiple maneuver nodes
- Color coding
- Yellow
- Two ships' next maneuver nodes are less than 15m apart
- A ship's next maneuver node is less than 15m away
- Red
- The ship's next maneuver node is in the past
A-Z
- Shows the default list, sorted alphabetically
Time Warp
- Time warp will slow to 1x when a maneuver node is 15m away. Very high speed warps can lag up to a few minutes when slowing
Vessel Type Filters
- Switching to MNV mode will unset all vessel type filters. Returning to MET or A-Z mode will restore filters set in those modes.
Known Issues
- Linux is not supported
- Certain tracking station operations such as untracking an object, terminating a vessel, or switching vessel filters causes the list to flicker momentarily
Changes in this version
- Fixes an issue that caused the list to reset to MNV when terminating a vessel
