[1.10.0] Final Frontier - kerbal individual merits 1.10.0-3485
Nereid replied to Nereid's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
A screenshot plugin is clearly way beyond the scope of FF at the moment. Perhaps its just me, but I dont like the idea of a death ribbon. Its just because in real life you wont find any officer walking around with a deatch ribbon of any kind. The main problem is, he wouldn't be walking anymore. Because me and some other wont like this or some kind of ribbons I will include this type only if ribbons could be deactivated. If I add this functionality a death ribbon may be there some day. I'm working on custom ribbons at the moment, but this will take a while. -

? Strange... Those debug lines in the code are removed in my version. I will check this ASAP (seems that my development and release builds differ...) EDIT: I do not know how this could have happened. For each test I copy all files to my development and to my release installation of KSP. They should be identical, but this time the DLLs were different. Fixed this in 0.2.3b. And TY for reporting -

Nereid replied to Nereid's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Final Frontier 0.2.3 is on Spaceport Changes: corrected typo in "Splashdown ribbon" orbit ribbons are only awarded for stable orbits outside atmosphere and inside sphere of influence new Fast Orbit ribbon (awarded for stable orbit in less than 300 seconds) no more Splashdown ribbons in EVA or driving a rover on the shore new filter: active vessel only Please update to 0.2.3b! There is something wrong with the DLL included in 0.2.3. -

Done. But I will fix some other bugs before I release it. I will try to reproduce this. If I can't, I will add some additional log outputs to analyze this further. -

Take a look at the right side of the window. The buttons for filtering, dead, active, available, or undecorated kerbals are missing. So you are using an outdated version. If you have reinstalled FF and still get this bug, please search for another FinalFrontier.dll in GameData. Maybe you have installed it the wrong way so there are two DLLs and KSP loads an outdated one. -

Nereid replied to Nereid's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Well... it seems that I should rename this ribbon to "Kerbal Bathing ribbon" or something like that. I will restrict the Splashdown ribbon to non EVA in the next release. Another requirement should be a previous flight situation, so even a vessel on wheels would not get the ribbon just by driving on the shore. Puh... The width is hardcoded at the moment. And each ribbon is a GUI-Label so I would have to do a bit more than just to make the width of a ribbon user adjustable. Perhaps I could give it a try in a later release, but its not on top of the todo-list. The ribbons are just png files, so anybody could change them to their own needs. But they would work best in a 120x32 pixel resolution. -

Nereid replied to Nereid's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Thanks. I will correct this in the next release (this weekend?). Confirmed. It seem's that KSP is firing a launch event at every load. In will have to check, if I can distinguish between true launches and "load launches". This is a major bug, so I will try to solve it this weekend. Until then: mission times are reset every load. Thank you for reporting. This should be fixed in 0.2.3 -

The fix in 0.2.2c should fix 99,99% of those situations. But any non docking operation with two vessels (non EVA) that triggers a docking event will still award docking ribbons. But I don't think such events exists in KSP. But I could be wrong of course. -

[1.10.0] Final Frontier - kerbal individual merits 1.10.0-3485
Nereid replied to Nereid's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
I have checked the (sub)modules of a involved part already and haven't found any kind of useful pattern so far. There are attachment rules and some have a boolean flag for docking, but they are always false. I could test for the name "LargeDockingport" for example but if some addon uses different names it wont work. And thats my problem: I'm just still looking for some kind of attribute in the KSP classes that have the information to detect the docking ability of a part. It has to be there... somewhere... but where? -

Nereid replied to Nereid's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Well... kerbals tend to create solutions that are some kind of an overkill, so this idea would not be THAT bad. To answer the original question: I will first get rid of all quirks and bugs that are in the code. After this is done perhaps we could think about some kind of ranking system based on experience, flight hours or whatever. And hopefully some day Squad will include a similar system as mine, so that FF is no longer necessary. -

I have just tested it with 0.2.2b and could not reproduce this. Can you tell me a) which version you are running and what exactly have you done to get multiple First In Space ribbons? -

1. Try to start KSP directly from the KSP home directory 2. Extract the archive directly into the KSP home folder: GameData + Nereid + + FinalFrontier Don't extract FinalFrontier directly into GameData! EDIT: I have just corrected my answer a to make it a bit more clear now. Just make sure the Nereid subfolder is extracted in GameData, i.e. extract the archive into to KSP home folder. Unfortunately you have to check every addon how it has to be installed. Some choose to include the GameData folder in the archive, some don't. I have choosen the first option, so just extract it into wherever KSP is installed on your system and don't mess with the folder structure afterwards. If it still fails to load the ribbons, I will have to add log message to analyze this further. Notebooks... I hate them. Just typing this a second time, because the first time the notebook shuts down just while I was typing this. KSP was still running in the background and had drained the battery after a few minutes... and its a lot easier to create typos on this kind of keyboard... -

I have created a temporary fix for the docking ribbons while in EVA: DOWNLOAD 0.2.2c It just checks if any involved vessel is on EVA (in KSP any kerbal on EVA is a vessel too ). If any involved part is a part of a vessel on EVA (i.e a kerbal on EVA) it just wont trigger a docking ribbon. And if anyone knows how to check a part if its capable of docking, just tell me... -

Nereid replied to Nereid's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
KAS is still a problem. Currently any couple event leads to a docking ribbon. This is fine for vanilla but for KAS or similar addons I suspected some problems already. Its already on my list, because KAS is one of my personal favorites, too. EDIT: any version with docking ribbons will award this ribbon in this case. Just wait a week. I will take a look into this next weekend. I you want get rid of this ribbon: Just edit the halloffame.ksp in your save game folder. Find he line with DO:<body> order DO1:<body> and the name of the kerbal. Just remove this line. -

Final Frontier 0.2.2 is on Spaceport Thank you for reporting. The bug is fixed in 0.2.2b. EDIT: Should have been fixed in 0.2.2 but reappeared because of a unintentional revert. -

Nereid replied to Nereid's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
I think this would be quite difficult. I have one ribbon I want for myself: The Abort Launch ribbon. But it's seems not that easy to detect an abort. It may be easy to detect the user input that should (!) trigger an abort, but the user can set it up for anything he want, perhaps extending landing gears. And a ribbon for extending gears... well... Such things are complicated to detect. It update frequency will go down in the near future. Currently I'm finishing the UI and I'm still hunting bugs. Changelogs will come, when this stage of development is passed. Regarding bugs: The current version has a bug in detecting orbits. Sometimes (in the sphere of influence of Mun for example) it detects an orbit, but the Apoapsis is beyond the sphere of influence of that body. So it is not really an orbit. But unfortunately this is a situation change event that changes the situation to ORBIT of the vessel and then no other change will be detected. There is an Orbit-Closed event but this isn't working for me. I do have a solution: just test for an closed orbit every few seconds. But I have to test this more carefully before I can release this. In my last tests nearly all ribbons seem to be broken with this workaround, so I will delay this for a week or so. I will release 0.2.2 in a few minutes. I have given up detecting solid fuel booster at the moment. Its possible to detect them, thats not difficult. But I haven't found a solution to detect a single engine activation (without triggering the new stage). New in 0.2.2b: The detailed display window (as in 0.2.0/0.2.1) The timestamps in logbooks have been corrected A new ribbon for entering the sphere of influence of a celestial body. Any other ribbon of that body will replace this new ribbon. -

Nereid replied to Nereid's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
0.2.0 doesn't count docking operations. Just a missing incremental operation. There may be a 0.2.2 tomorrow too. BTW: In flight you by selecting any kerbal on mission and pressing the button on the right hand side directly beneath "MISSION" (the name of the vessel), you can make the vessel of that kerbal the current active flight. -

Final Frontier 0.2.0 experimental My time in the next week is very limited and I can't really fix bugs then. So I decided not to upload the new version on Spaceport to prevent a similar desaster as last time. But anybody may download the version 0.2.0 from this location: DOWNLOAD 0.2.0 (outdated) DOWNLOAD 0.2.1 Issues: Filter for dead kerbals is broken. Again the misleading RosterStatus has confused me, because dead kerbals won't get RosterStatus.DEAD, but RosterStatus.MISSING.. (fixed). Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. New features: A display window for a detailed view a a specific kerbal. A logbook for each kerbal. A hotkey LEFTALT-F for those with toolbar issues. [EDIT] a screenshot: -

Nereid replied to Nereid's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Sprottige kieler Grüße! Well... FF is considering all EVA not on ground and not in an orbit as dangerous. Currently an orbit is called stable in FF, when there is a apoapsis and a periapsis. Atmospheric pressure is not taken into account at the moment (i.e. the orbit may not be stable for a long time). It's just some kind of fun ribbon, because a kerbal that goes on EVA in that situation takes a greater risk (it's easy to rescue a kerbal in orbit, but if he is flying into deep space or falling down to ground its not that easy). Any EVA while in transit from one planet to another without orbiting the Sun would also be counted as dangerous. And yes, if you do an EVA in an airplane without a periapsis, you will receive the Dangerous EVA ribbon. EDIT: mistunderstood the question The new ribbon EVA around Kerbin is awarded for any EVA (not on ground of course - let's this will be detected correctly) without an apoapsis or periapsis. For example: your kerbals are approching Mun but won't enter an orbit and are using Muns gravity only for changing the flight path (so they get only a periapsis), then they get the ribbon at the point they are doing an EVA in the sphere of influence of Mun. -
