While testing patch v0.1.1
I was testing landing gear.
I just lowered landing gear and vessel landed x20.
If I raise and lower gear, it does it again.
-
I found out what is causing the the problem!
I deleted the old savegame and started over.
I started a new game.
I loaded the craft above and added landing gear.
Every time I raise and lower the gear the save gets BIGGER because of vesselLanded is added to save.
Just an update.
-
While playing I noticed when autosave happens, the game stops for saving the game.
The pause while saving was getting longer and longer.
So, I looked at where the game was saved.%username% is my username, I not telling you that.
Beta is the the game name I saved.
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\LocalLow\Intercept Games\Kerbal Space Program 2\Saves\SinglePlayer\BetaI have 3 autosaves that are 14,588,699 KB.
autosave_1.json 14,588,699 KB
autosave_2.json 14,588,699 KB
autosave_3.json 1,409,380 KBMy save in Beta
docked.json 919,319 KB
takes about 5 minutes to load.If I do anything that causes an autosave,
the auto saves are about 10-15 minutes to SAVE.Just for fun I dragged an dropped autosave_1.json in WordPad.
I waited, and waited, and waited and walked away to see if it loads.
45min later still not loaded. May be a Windows does not like loading and saving something that big?So, I went to a hexeditor and found
From hex 00000000 to 0003DE95A
Everything looks ok.
Setting and Crafts I have around Kerbin.
1 craft in orbit.
5 craft on Kerbin.from hex 0003DE85B to 3776ECE7B are EventKeys.
Examples:"EventKey": "vesselLaunched",

],is repeated over and over.
As if an object is bouncing on Kerbin.event vesselLanded Is making the AutoSave TOOO BIG.
Just letting you know what I found.
-
Launch 2 separate rockets to orbit.
Docked them.
Saved.
Eat something.
Reload from docked save.
Bug shows no fuel.
Uncouple ships.
No control over both ship.
I still had fun getting there.
-
How about a test dummy
A tech tree with crash test dummies to test forces on before putting a Kerbal in danger.
It can start as a simple dead weight rag doll and go to a dummy with force sensors.
Add artificial intelligence and you have a robot/android
A Kerbal android?
Note: people can still have fun sending Kerbals into danger if they still want.
But some places may be to hot,cold, and have too much gravity too explore in the future.
-
When I first started playing KSP, I went into sand box mode.
Try for orbit by adding MORE boosters.
Reached Kerbin escape velocity and no fuel left.
The flight path was out past the planets and back into the Sun.
Jeb took a long(years) ride out and then long(years) ride back to burn up in the Sun.
Jeb had plenty of time to think while waiting to hit the Sun.

19 hours ago, Krazy1 said:
Polar Orbit!
The orbit stays the same BUT the planet is rotating under orbit.
-
Hopes and Wishes? How about Option.
Optional: Atmosphere planets have wind.
Planets that have a tilt and spin cause air to flow.
You could make it as simple as a directional gust.
IF you want more complex, Air thermals, jet streams, tornadoes, hurricanes.
What could be more Kerbal than a wind blowing apart a solar array?
-
5 level pilot, should be able to create nodes.
I am at a loss for a cause of not being able to create a node.
-
I play career mode.
Did it have power? No, power = no control.
Did it have a com link? If no link = no control.
-
If you can't hire, can you create a Kerbal?
LEFT ALT + F12 Kerbal create
-
-
In Career Mode you may need to UPGRADE Astronaut Complex to hire more Kerbals.

I have Active 45 Kerbals and 18 tourists
14 Pilots
12 Engineers
19 Scientists
trying to keep track of them is a messSuggest to add custom tabs in Astronaut Complex and VAB to
group crews and sort KerbalsIn Astronaut Complex
====
Example: Create Tab names Red Dwarf
check Crew Tab (Note not a sort tab)Check boxes by each Kerbal
Select
Dave Kerman
Rimmer Kerman
Cat Kerman
Kryton KermanIn VAB I can now see a tab with Red Dwarf and click it for the Crew.
Shows
Dave Kerman
Rimmer Kerman
Cat Kerman
Kryton Keman
====
Example 2:
Create tab named Pilots
Check Sort tab (Not a crew)Option to check which Kerbals are in the list
Check Boxes to show:
Available
Assigned
MissingCheck Boxes to show:
Pilot
Engineer
Scientist
TouristCheck Boxes to show:
Male
FemaleCheck Boxes to show:
0 stars
1 star
2 stars
3 stars
4 stars
5 starsVeteran
Courage
Stupidity
----
Select Pilot
Select
0 stars
1 starIn VAB if I click tab Pilot it will show all Pilots
with 0 or 1 stars===
Tabs can be created for Scientists
Tabs for Engineers
Tabs for Tourists
This would make it easy to find match Kerbals to missions
Just a suggestion.

First Mun landing
Landing from orbit
Walking on Mun
What is this?
It is a crater!
SelfieKerbin eclipse Sun
-
I was driving a solar powered rover on the Mun. I have the scatter mod.
The Mun started changing to a orange red color.
I looked back at Kerbin.
I sat back and watched real time Kerbin eclipse the Sun and the color of the Mun change to black.
-
When I first started, I used time warp all the time.
Now, I am launching multiple rockets at a time, I use it less.
I had 3 tourist missions, a save Kerbal in orbit, and launch a sentinel going at one time.
If I time warped more than 2 days, some kerbals would not be making it back.
I am in career mode, Less time warp means more missions complete faster and more science/money.
-
3 days each 14 hours work done.
Time to really test Rover v2.
Rover v2 on Mun and found stuff!
-
Career mode what I have learned with rovers
Rover v1 old low tech unlocked
vs
Rover v2 new all tech unlockedMy frist Rovers was simple
I have them on the Mun and Minmus.
Still a noob just starting to leave Kerbins gravity to orbit Sun.Rover v1 Front
Rover v2 Back
Rover v2 More Batteries, Lights
Always use landing gear to keep in place
and they help JUMP to complete science while flying below altitude.
Communications Retractable
Rover v2 Retractable because I rolled over so many times with Rover v1Solar Retractable
Rover v2 There are some surface solar as well as retratable, again ROLL overs.Hydraulics
Rover v2 hydraulics. Did I mention rovers flip over! Hydraulics flip them back.Scanning arm
Rover v2 Large Scanning Arm tucked in tight because of ROLL overs.Ramming speed
Rover v1 go BOOM.
Rover v2 on side no damage.Advanced Inline Stabilizer
Rover v2 has Advanced Inline Stabilizer so I can spin it back up.
Rover v2 winner! -
When I just STARTED playing career mode. I got a contract to fly by Eve before I got to the Mun.
I also had to test a BACC "Thumper" Solid Fuel Booster at 300k orbit while staging. Try getting a LARGE booster to a high orbit with low tech.
Then there is the tourists.
I had three ships with 6 tourist each flying to Mun and Minmus at the same time once.
I also saved a lot of Kerbals from orbit.

They are not in one place

Sort and group in Astronaut Complex.
Sort by Pilot/Scientist/Engineer/Experience
Ability to make a Group/Crew choosing Pilots/Scientist/Engineer for missions/ships/planes
I have saved 23+ Kerbals from space.
I would like to group them, so I can train them equally.
Teams taking turns on mission.

lol, I am noob. Thank you.

I like it.
Hmm, if hack my save, I could add a Tony Stark Kerman.
hehehe

Communication Action Group bug v0.1.1
When 2 antenna are symmetric and toggle antenna is in action group,
They do NOT toggle.
