  1. "Flight"? The thing exploded still attached to the launch-pads.
  2. I think my Workstation's videocard is toasted. While moving the workstation for disassembling it I dropped the thing a few inches from the ground, what for a mammoth weighting more than 100 pounds, it's something. The things is rock solid (it's a old Dell). No issues but a dent on the ground. But I could not help but to remember this: (https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOAA-19) Well… I'm feeling somewhat better by looking on it.
  3. My bad. Fraktal's problem is similar to mine, and the "good news" is that the problem also happens on Win64, it's not something exclusive to MaxOSX or Linux. This suggests that the problem can be on a higher, platform independent level - and so, easier accessible. Would this thing happening on a platform and not in the others (or not happening only on one platform), this would be harder to fix.
  4. Steam, MacOSX, 16GB Ram. MH is Mission Builder (what I have installed). So at least is consistent. It's the same for everybody, what it make it plausible to be fixed or perhaps workarounded.
  5. Should be something that CTB relies into, as the HLA didn't presented the problem until I added CTB on it. Since MJ2 does not use CTB, MJ2 relies on the same thing, as it has the same behaviour. =/ What is your setup (KSP Version and OS, with or without MH)?
  6. Now I'm sure. It's the CTB (or/and Toolbar+Blizzy - I'm only mentioning it because it's the other code intervention I did) running on KSP 1.4.4 + MH 1.3 under MacOSX. By using a old, 1.3 binary, for a mod I'm using (HLAirships), I can select the HLA window (the window border became white) and Shift and Control (and everything else) works. By using "my" binary, modified to use Toolbar and CTB, when the HLA window is selected, all the keystrokes are ignored. I hope this is not yet another Unity's idiosyncrasy. — EDIT — HLA is not the only mod with the issue. Every single mod those window border became white does it, MechJeb2 is another one. I don't know if MJ2 uses or not the CTB, but HLA didn't presented the problem before recompiling with CTB, so it is at least a trigger.
  7. No. You can use anything that can download a text file from. Examples: http://ksp-avc.cybutek.net/version.php?id=538 https://ksp.lisias.net/add-ons/UbioWeldContinuum.version and also github: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/linuxgurugamer/MemGraph/master/MemGraph.version (GitHub is a little tricky, as you can't change the .version file on master while developing without triggering false update alarms on everybody - if you don't use GitHub already, I don't think it worths just due this)
  8. Something like this: { "NAME": "Airplane Plus", "DOWNLOAD": "https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/140262-131-airplane-plus-r200-supersonic-6-retractable-landing-gears-jan-23-2018/", "URL": "<some url to a remote .version file>", [SNIP] Since you are not using GitHub or something, you can create a login here if order to publish a .version, as in this example.
  9. Nops. But allow the KSP-AVC and MiniAVC to detect new versions and check compatibility with the installment. The way it is, it just make a request on the forum for nothing - it's better not to use this way, as it would delay a bit the startup and add load to the forum.
  10. Hi. I think there's a error on the .version file. The URL is not pointing to a remote .version file. { "NAME": "Airplane Plus", "URL": "https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/140262-131-airplane-plus-r200-supersonic-6-retractable-landing-gears-jan-23-2018/", "VERSION": { "MAJOR": 23, "MINOR": 0, "PATCH": 0 }, "KSP_VERSION":{ "MAJOR":1, "MINOR":4, "PATCH":4 }, "KSP_VERSION_MIN":{ "MAJOR":1, "MINOR":2, "PATCH":9 }, "KSP_VERSION_MAX":{ "MAJOR":1, "MINOR":4, "PATCH":4 } }
  11. Humm… Since I added CTB into a customized plugin, my keystrokes are "eaten" when the plugin window is focused (white border on the window). Perhaps another plugin could be influencing on CTB?
  12. Whoops… I could swear I had read "button". =/ But, I think the same applies. But one thing to be tested if when many windows are stacked to see if the performance penalty piles up. In time…. ClickThoughBlocker blocks also keystrokes, I'm right? How hard do you think it would be to add an option to allow the keystrokes to "leak" into the game? If I manage to implement this thing, would you merge the feature?
  13. I don't think it worths. The "issue" only happens when the mouse is over the button. How much time one do that? And even by every button on the toolbar having this problem, only one has the mouse over it at each time - so stacking performance loss is not a problem neither.
  14. Well, it works, but not for all marks. This is what I typed in KSP: **This** is a simple _test_ to *check* MarkDown support. This craft: 1. Fly 1. Land (most of the time) 1. Eats fuel as it was candy More info about this test [here](https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/84389-kerbalxcom-craft-mission-sharing/&page=43&tab=comments#comment-3418431 "Craft Manager on KSP Forum") - - - "Be kind, rewind" You can see the results here: https://kerbalx.com/Lisias/Hovercraft-Jet
  15. I suggest to use KSP-AVC. I delete every MiniAVC.dll on my GameData (one less thing to bother), and rely on KSP-AVC to do the checking - it give you one report with all the issues found. A click in the "OK" button, and life goes on.
  16. Could you, please, explain what's broken? This can can be useful to me.
  17. I bet on the GC. :-) A screenshot front GCMonitor, or better yet, MemGraph (logging into a file) would help to confirm (or not) the thesys.
  18. 9/10 : Proteus? It's you? I'm out of ideas. Why is so hard to be a Human?
  19. From the link you gave: "The FAA gave airlines 120 days to replace devices that could be giving false airspeed indications. [snip] US Airways, one of only two American carriers who fly planes affected by the order, said Thursday they had already replaced the part." Airbus is still in business, by the way. It doesn't matter what I think. What's matter is what effectively happens in the Real Life. Airbus is still in business, the A330 fleet is still flying, and the insurances were paid. It's how things work. Just like that. Did you gave a look on Boeing stock prices when a lot of 747 had hull losses in the 70's? It was bad. The Teneriffe disaster was particularly bad. But Boeing is still in business. And doing pretty good, as it appears. It's all about risk management. And dying people are handled as one risk to be managed. It's this way on every vehicle industry on the planet, from GM to Airbus, from Mitsubishi to Virgin Galactic. It will happen - sooner or later, someone will die due a vehicle manufactured by them, so they save money to be used on insurances, compensations and P/R . It's part of the operating costs. It will not be ignored. It happens that it will be eventually forgotten, as every single disaster in history - from Hindenburg to Titanic, including the Concorde. The Hindenburg didn't caused the end of the Blimps, it was the huge cost. As hydrogen revealed too dangerous, the cost to use helium was just unsurpassable. That accident were just the last drop, the airplanes were already taking the place. The Titanic didn't caused the end of the massive transatlantics - they are still around (and some of them are still sinking and killing people). The end of the Concorde was caused by 9/11. The entire fleet were revamped after that terrible accident (the only one in the history of the plane), but then 9/11 happened, trashing the more rentable international trips that Concorde needed to be viable. Boeing, Airbus, et all… How many people do you think their aircrafts had killed? So… In the mean time, do some research and see how many Billion USD worth companies had closed due fatal accidents. The blow can be big, but they usually survive it. Granted, not every single one of them had survived the hit (de Havilland and their Comet came to my mind) - but most of them, yes. Statistically, the odds benefits Virgin Galactic and Space-X.
  20. Addendum to my rules: 6. Scare the sheet out of the tourists. 7. Do not abandon/waste hardware. 1. I'm spending the last 10 days trying to recover a drone that loose contact with the KSC. Boy, this is harder than I though... I'm using Blimps too now. :-D
  21. Nops. The reason private companies are being in charge is exactly that: they can kill people and still be on business. See the airplanes companies: how many years Airbus was "grounded" when the Air France 447 crashed in the Atlantic? How many A330 were forbidden to take off? Yeah. Sorry, but private companies answers to no one but their investors. NASA must answer to the Public Opinion or they loose the money - NASA is funded by the Congress, that answer to their electors. People die in cars, airplanes, ships and crossing the streets. They will die in space too. Nothing new.
  22. Nah. All he need to say is "You're rocketing it wrong" and he will be fine. Really, we are living in strange times. Not yet. The patent must be accepted first. Also, patents protect implementations, not ideas. Musk must copy the very same hardware in order to be loose a dispute. Not impossible (patent trolling exists because now and then they succeed), but unlikely IMHO. And Musk has his own patents too, I don't think he is a guy to be patent trolled unchecked,
  23. "Oba! Peleja" - someone has some molten cheese? [snip] That ball is not mine (that phrase sounds weird ). We have evidences that we are running out of Fresh Water, exhausting our ocean's capacity of producing oxygen, some scientists are screaming about an imminent global warming (the last time we had so much carbon on our atmosphere, the South Pole was a Tropical Forest), and some others are telling that a new Ice Age is near, as the present Warm Window is simply the longest one that they observed on the historical registers from the pole's ice drillings. There's a reason why all the known human history have about 10.000 years: it's the time since the last Ice Age. Ice Age erases everything, the ices smash and triturates everything as it advances and recedes. We have perhaps one or two evidences of civilization before that, one of them Yonaguni - being them underwater can be an explanation for the survival. I'll spare you from the myriad of links about those matters - we are not scientists anyway, how we could understood such data in order to have a proper informed opinion? It's better that each one do his own research. So, yeah. In the next 50 years our civilization will be struggling to adapt - and the resources needed for Space Exploration will be withhold by populist governments in order to try to maintain peace. — EDIT — but granted… Perhaps I should had type "near extinction". — END OF EDIT — This information does not apply. No one (but Facebook) is dumb enough to launch satellites without insurance. It's expected that one will be lost now and then - Russia blew it recently, China did it, and the list goes on. And Musk probably vowed to never again allow a launch without insurance: I think Bezos is taking greater risks in killing people. He is the one willing to kick Tourists into space - and Virgin Galactic already killed one of their own. I think both will be fine. People will die in the Space Exploration.
  24. There are mods installed? The unit log would be helpfull.
  25. Uh… Kerbal-X accepts Markdown on the `.craft` file? I need to pay more attention on some details. Damn, I was editing the description on the site after uploading.
