Pegboard

How do you gather science from the scatters around, are they supposed to be like surface features, or is there another way to collect science off them? Further reading suggests its not BG, but I can't seem to get the pop-up for EVA kerbals on any scatters? Edit: Further testing suggests it's a bug, though I can't seem to find any issue with the module manager that adds the experiments, using ballisticfox's fork. It does register in the logs as actually patching, too.

I've tried to use the blueshift bussards, with no ability to gather graviolium around the Kerbin rings, it'd be a bit of trouble for me to test anywhere else right now but I can say that at least the Kerbin ones are too thin for the blueshift buzzards. They are affected by your actual velocity relative to the field as I gathered through, which may be the difference for the FFT ones being able to harvest it despite the on-paper density values of the fields.

I assumed that the inability to harvest in any the default belts at normal orbital speeds was intentionally, and yes, I can confirm that the basic space dust Bussard also harvests graviolium, I believe by patch, though I could not figure out exactly which one allows it. That one is the one I had not work offscreen, which meant that gathering graviolium that way was basically a no-go. Edit: Ah, that one is actually FFT, thought the exosphere scoop Bussard was Space Dust, so the patch is in there. The min harvest value for them is far lower than the BS bussards, so it can actually capture it.

Blueshift has its own, Trek-y Bussards, and there's a big, chunky (5m?) Bussard from Space Dust itself. That one works fine, blueshift's do not harvest anything at normal speeds (and all the dust rings exist below warp altitude, I believe.) Beyond Home indeed does not have BS configs, but this was how it was working on this set on my vanilla playthrough.

Space dust works fine on my machine, though (as the design seems to imply) the Bussards from Blueshift only would work at warp speed. I've got too many mods to list and currently in the middle of a Beyond Home playthrough though (to which I should probably put some Space Dust around...).

Is it intended that you can recover on planets with recovery bases, or is that functionality restricted to Kerbin?

Kerbin, sitting around 300km up. It's a real trickle.

To be clear, I'm using the original Space Dust Bussards, which do have the sensitivity to collect the graviolium, they simply only do so when I'm focused on the craft.

Doesn't work on my machine, Guess I'll have to debug it later.

What's to be said, honestly? They probably don't know much more than we do.

Can I get a change to Pegboard? I'm not very active but this one's something of a dead name for me, and I don't like seeing it.

To be totally fair, it does encourage you to actually pursue the other pathways to graviolium. Though, since AFAIK space dust doesn't work when you're not on the craft, so it makes it kind of painful to actually use it.

Why are the planets I look at with my telescope pitch black, even when I should be looking at the day side of them? EDIT: Turns out the cause was a cloud mod, This one specifically, how can I properly run this mod while still being able to actually see the planets from this range?
