Good job, hope it gets a fix.

I'm getting the following error message when I load my save file and advises to post here for further information. I just click OK or Ignore and it seems to load without problems. Does anyone know what might be causing it? Exception occured while loading contract parameter 'HasBiologicalSample' in contract 'RP0.SoundingRocketAdvancedBio': System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.ArgumentException: 'BioCapsule' is not a valid Part. at ContractConfigurator.ConfigNodeUtil.ParsePartValue (System.String partName) [0x00025] in <8d9727f1c7ce40b294e3f01494caf8da>:0 at ContractConfigurator.ConfigNodeUtil.ParseSingleValue[T] (System.String key, System.String stringValue, System.Boolean allowExpression) [0x000f9] in <8d9727f1c7ce40b294e3f01494caf8da>:0 at (wrapper managed-to-native) System.Reflection.MonoMethod.InternalInvoke(System.Reflection.MonoMethod,object,object[],System.Exception&) at System.Reflection.MonoMethod.Invoke (System.Object obj, System.Reflection.BindingFlags invokeAttr, System.Reflection.Binder binder, System.Object[] parameters, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture) [0x00032] in <9577ac7a62ef43179789031239ba8798>:0 --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.Reflection.MonoMethod.Invoke (System.Object obj, System.Reflection.BindingFlags invokeAttr, System.Reflection.Binder binder, System.Object[] parameters, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture) [0x00048] in <9577ac7a62ef43179789031239ba8798>:0 at System.Reflection.MethodBase.Invoke (System.Object obj, System.Object[] parameters) [0x00000] in <9577ac7a62ef43179789031239ba8798>:0 at ContractConfigurator.ConfigNodeUtil.ParseValue[T] (ConfigNode configNode, System.String key, System.Boolean allowExpression) [0x001f0] in <8d9727f1c7ce40b294e3f01494caf8da>:0 at ContractConfigurator.ConfigNodeUtil.ParseValue[T] (ConfigNode configNode, System.String key, T defaultValue) [0x00012] in <8d9727f1c7ce40b294e3f01494caf8da>:0 at ContractConfigurator.Parameters.PartValidation.OnParameterLoad (ConfigNode node) [0x00079] in <8d9727f1c7ce40b294e3f01494caf8da>:0 at ContractConfigurator.Parameters.ContractConfiguratorParameter.OnLoad (ConfigNode node) [0x000be] in <8d9727f1c7ce40b294e3f01494caf8da>:0

I'm playing with RO-RP1 (all latest versions), latest version of KSP, and a stack of other mods. I removed the old version 1.8.1.15 of KK and CustomPreLaunchChecks I had mistakingly installed. After removing them and restarting my game, my funds per day has gone from a fairly high positive value (+319 per day) to a negative value (-1085 per day), basically breaking my game if I remove it. Re-installing (the old) KK and CustomPreLaunchChecks restores my game to normal use. Installing the newest version of KK 1.8.6 doesn't solve it, I still have negative funds per day, I have to re-install the old version to continue with +funds/day If I start a new game without KK, and load my current save file into there, it still shows negative fund values, so something in my save file caused by the old KK must be breaking it. I haven't even used KK yet to build anything but I'm stuck with it! Does anyone know what's going on, or how I remove it without losing my game save, please?

Edit: Ignore this post, just saw there's a newer version and thread for it. I'm playing with RO-RP1, latest version of KSP, and a stack of other mods. I removed KK and CustomPreLaunchChecks to try and pin down a random crash I'm having.

That toggle doesn't seem to do anything, NaviG also reported the same thing a few posts back.

Well I thought it was the culprit, I'm not so sure now because my shortcuts are still sometimes gone, it just doesn't happen as much without Time Control.

Yeah and like you, I can't disable SR in the options either, it still calculates in the VAB, so the only solution is to remove SR or Real Chute.

Is there a 0.2.1.7 update for this? Every time I launch KSP, AVC tells me there's an update but takes me to the github page for v0.2.1.6. It started doing that 2 or 3 days ago. Thanks.

These are excellent for getting started in RP1, it can be confusing at first. I'm just watching the first ones now. Thanks for making these videos.

Found the culprit, it seems to be a conflict between Time Control https://github.com/ntwest/TimeControl/ and RP0. Remove either and the issue is gone.

I'm having a problem where every time I go into the VAB my keyboard shortcuts are removed and I have to use EditorExtensionsRedux to reset them. As soon as I leave and re-enter the VAB, the same thing has happened again. As soon as I remove RP0 the problem has gone. Anyone have any ideas, it's driving me nuts?

Hi, I have a problem when Stage Recovery and Real Chutes are both installed together, causing lag/stuttering in the VAB. I've tested both in a stock install with the bare minimum mods installed, and there is no lag with either or both removed. The lag seems to be caused by something in RC, as shown by these messages from my log file. These messages repeat continuously and the log becomes huge. Any clue what might be going on please? Log file is here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/px7pnotsz1jnr1o/With Stage Recovery.log?dl=0 [RealChute]: Could not find the transform "canopy" in the library (Filename: C:\buildslave\unity\build\Runtime/Export/Debug/Debug.bindings.h Line: 35) [RealChute]: Could not find the transform "canopy" in the library (Filename: C:\buildslave\unity\build\Runtime/Export/Debug/Debug.bindings.h Line: 35) [RealChute]: Could not find the transform "canopy" in the library (Filename: C:\buildslave\unity\build\Runtime/Export/Debug/Debug.bindings.h Line: 35) [RealChute]: Could not find the transform "canopy" in the library (Filename: C:\buildslave\unity\build\Runtime/Export/Debug/Debug.bindings.h Line: 35) I also made a post about it on the Stage Recovery thread here:

Yeah, the other problem is though, that whenever I detach a part, such as, say a tank, and then re-attach it, it will lag like hell while the whole vessel is updating. So editing a ship becomes tedious and unplayable really.

I tried it out once a couple of years ago in my stock career game and just decided I could do without, was trying to keep part mods to a minimum in stock. I'm just starting an RO/RSS career now and going all out on part mods haha. I only really need Real Chutes for scaling to smaller vessels anyway. I would use Tweakscale instead but it doesn't scale chutes

Thanks for looking at it, much appreciated. I did notice those messages when I opened the console in-game. I might make a post on the RC thread to see what's going on there, I'll just have to make do without RC for now.
