The boss doesn't make errors! Greggan just misinterpreted the instructions

[1.12.3+] RealChute Parachute Systems v1.4.9.5 | 20/10/24
Sirrobert replied to stupid_chris's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Welp, I learned something. I did notice they looked so much different, that's why I got the hunch. At first I just asumed it was a retexture -
[1.12.3+] RealChute Parachute Systems v1.4.9.5 | 20/10/24
Sirrobert replied to stupid_chris's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
EDIT: after a hunch, it turned out that Ven's Stock Part Revamp was the cause. So turning this into a PSA: these 2 seem incompatible I'm just starting the game again, installed the mod, and having some significant problems. Basicly, with RealChute installed, the regular chute doesn't work (without, it works like normal) More indepth: The game detects the chute as regular, but it doesn't show up in the staging list (and thus can't be used regularly). It is still possible to right click on the regular Parachute and click deploy, but nothing comes out (and the craft does not slow down at all). I asume the problem is caused by some conflict, but can't for the life of me figure out what it could be (and I'm not really in the mood to restart the game 40 times trying to find out). If anyone has any idea what the problem could be, it'd be amazing. Screenshots: http://oi62.tinypic.com/ao0zkh.jpg (note the chute ontop, but not in the staging bar) http://oi59.tinypic.com/dwdyma.jpg (right click menu shows I clicked on Deply Chute, but no chute came out. Screenshot taken after the rocket had already bounced on the engine, but before that there was no chute either (crash at 50m/s or so)) -
[1.10.1+] Contract Configurator [v1.30.5] [2020-10-05]
Sirrobert replied to nightingale's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
The error message has been posted enough already, so I don't have to repeat that. But is there a fix? Is the old version still fine?- 5,202 replies

You have to remember that 50m/s is 180 KM per hour. That's REALLY fast for a rover Someone's confusing m/s with Km/h

Where are the contracts?
Sirrobert replied to Cdr_Zeta's topic in KSP1 Technical Support (PC, modded installs)
Sounds like you overdid it with increasing science costs there -
[1.0.4] BoxSat vA.02f - Updated 09/16/2015
Sirrobert replied to DasPenguin85's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Sooo. Would it help if I go download Boxsat 50 times from Curse now? I'll also be drinking a beer on you tonight. It wouldn't help you get beer, but I'll be drinking beer. So in the end, everyone is happy. On that note, I didn't even know that mod authors get paid for downloads through Curse. That's awesome. Go Curse And finally a question: CKAN has boxsat prototype parts. The OP doesn't say anything about that, what is it? Or am I blind again? Do you really hate Curse more than you love some mods? -
Allow Higher Timewarps on Gilly
Sirrobert replied to Vaporo's topic in KSP1 Suggestions & Development Discussion
The same thing for all waiting long times in an orbit: Go back to space center, open tracking station, warp until you are where you need -
I think it's pritty good that the Ore mechanics and mentions of other planets are in the Demo. Extra incentive showing what you can get in the full version

Sciency Help Wanted!
Sirrobert replied to PORK sushi's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
Sounds like you are only getting science from 'recover vessel' part. There are dedicated science instruments (in the science tab in the VAB), and you can do a crew report in crew capsules, which yield science. Right click your crew capsule in flight. In case you get lost, always remember that you can right click parts to activate/control them -
No power = no commands, even to shut off?
Sirrobert replied to moronwrocket's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
A tip in the future: there is 1 thing you CAN still do without power. Lock and unlock resource flow. So you can lock a full battery. And if you run out of power, you unlock it. This turns it into backup power, which you use to turn off the power drain. Than recharge all batterys, relock the backup battery, and continue as normal -
Refuelling depot: permanent tanks, or visiting tankers?
Sirrobert replied to hoylemd's topic in KSP1 Discussion
It is WAY cheaper/easier to ferry fuel from Minmus/Mun than from Kerbin -
Need some advice on modular landers...
Sirrobert replied to michaelvf's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
Yes, it's very cheap to return. Essentially, all you have to do to return is cancel out your orbital velocity relative to Kerbin, and you do that by escaping Mun SOI in the right direction. Offcourse it's a little more tricky now that we have rentry heat, but that's what shields are for. Congratulations on a succesfull mission -
A difficult if not impossible contract
Sirrobert replied to Anquietas314's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
For contracts like this, it's not about the money anymore. It's about the challange. It's about proving the computer that you are better than it, that impossible contracts don't scare you -
Adding to this: Sometimes the plugin spawns seemingly endles suggestion windows. Which is interesting at times. http://tinyurl.com/oxk38tq

Getting the Wheesley to higher altitude
Sirrobert replied to cephalo's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
True, but radial rockets aren't that heavy. That's a matter of convinience (2 rockets. no fiddling with CoT) vs efficiency (less mass, but fiddly) -
Multiple Satelite missions with a single probe - feels like abuse?
Sirrobert replied to Kerr_'s topic in KSP1 Discussion
Do you keep all satalites launched for a contract in your flight list? Cause I delete them. Deactivate by classing as debris, or just crash into whatever it's orbiting -

Skyrim and GTA are also sandboxes. A sandbox does not mean no rules -

Sirrobert replied to Anquietas314's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
Possible? Sure. But you'd probably need a CPU melting monster -
Getting the Wheesley to higher altitude
Sirrobert replied to cephalo's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
2 rockets will burn your fuel twice as fast, but since you have twice as much thrust, you can run at only 50% throttle (in effect a single rocket) -

All kerbals can steer, but you need a Pilot to be able to use SAS -
Can't plan maneuvers
Sirrobert replied to Mastikator's topic in KSP1 Gameplay Questions and Tutorials
Yup, sounds exactly like the old bug.
