Oh, no no no. I mean, when you left click and drag while on EVA with your jetpack out, you can change the Kerbal's orientation. It'd be useful to lock this while doing KIS stuff. Right clicking to move the camera is fine. That's perfect. I did just notice, actually, that the current lock doesn't yet prevent this, only the EVA keys...

Hey bro. Really nice mod. Works wonders, but I have a suggestion, if I may. How about a mouse-drag lock for when Kerbals are EVA? This would be most useful with the new Kerbal Inventory System, when users have to drag items around different inventories. Having the ability to mouse lock while maintaining the ability to adjust your EVA motion would be immensely useful.

So I have a few mods installed which use KSPAPIExt: TweakScale, using v 1.7.4, TweakableEverything, using v 1.7.4.15, Infernal Robotics, using v 1.7.4 These are the only intances of the KSPAPIExt file I could find. All mods downloaded via CKAN. Lately, I've been having trouble right clicking Kerbals to open their context menus. I have a plane sitting out somewhere, and whenever I right click on the pilot, I get this exception: [EXC 22:05:38.577] NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object KSPAPIExtensions.UIPartActionFloatEdit.UpdateValueDisplay (Single newValue) KSPAPIExtensions.UIPartActionFloatEdit.UpdateItem () UIPartActionWindow.CreatePartList (Boolean clearFirst) UIPartActionWindow.UpdateWindow () UIPartActionController.UpdateActiveWindows () UIPartActionController.UpdateFlight () UIPartActionController.Update () After getting this exception, I cannot open any context menu without changing scenes. Attempting to open a vehicle part's context menu does not throw an exception. Anyone know what mod is causing this, and how I can fix it while keeping the mod, or at least work around it?

Just letting you know, there's a typo in your KerbalStuff link to here. It reads "http//forum..." instead of the proper "http://forum...".

scerion, I unfortunately don't know how to determine the subscriber status of a viewer, and I'm actually working on changing the behavior of the mod in Career such that, instead of drafting directly into your Krew, it will fill the applicants roster with viewers every time you go into it. If you have any design advice on how you'd like that to work, let me know! - - - Updated - - - Updated! v1.0.5: - Users already drafted are now removed before randomly drafting, skipping them completely. - The list of users already drafted is stored in individual files for each game save.

Vigilante96, maybe the default decoupler chance of failure is still too high then? Try going into the main injections config and lowering them. Add these lines to each decoupler, inside each injection's MODULE node: chanceOfExplosion = 0.03 chanceOfNothing = 0.08 That gives each decoupler a 3% chance of explosion, and a 5% chance of silent failure (0.08 - 0.03 = 0.05). Change as you like.

FreakyCheeseMan, The longer missions will have a higher chance of failure, but only if focus is kept on them. I haven't yet figured out how to handle unfocused vessels, so no calculation is done on them. Spare parts are stored in a container which is unlocked in General Construction. Repairs bring reliability up somewhat, but free repairs barely do anything at all even if they succeed. All mod parts need my mod applied to them via config file. Currently, I'm a bit busy so I haven't had the time to create configs for some of the more popular mods, but it's on the to do list. Silent_Thunder, it is possible, but as I remember, it is extremely difficult, and even worse if you're running RPM. That involves basically manually replacing internal props all the way up to manual texture modifications for RPM. Sorry, but it's a bit out of my expertise right now.

Updated! v0.6.4: - KSP 1.0 "Kompatibility" update ;3 EDIT: Updated again! v0.6.4.1: - Fixed icon duplication bug.

Updated! v1.0.4: - KSP 1.0 "Kompatibility" update ;3 EDIT: Updated again! v1.0.4.1: - Fixed icon duplication bug.

Updated! v1.0.3: - Fixed weird audio panning effects. - Set draft audio to the game UI level.

Try the newest version. No need for bots or API keys! As for the Kerbal, drafting them puts them in your crew, but if you revert to before you drafted them, they do disappear.

Updated! v1.0.2: - Removed twitch login requirement. - Mod no longer posts to twitch chat. - Mod now requests a user list, parses the list, and then drafts as usual. - Mod now plays sounds on draft button click, draft success, and failure. - Added username filtering which removes vulgar usernames form the draft. - Right clicking the app launcher button will automatically draft a Kerbal. - The draft alert now shows the drafted user's skill type.

My mod is not a bot in and of itself. It requires your own bot to log into a channel. You will need the bot's username, exactly as you spelled it, the API key (you can click a button inside the mod to get that), and a channel to join (which MUST be lowercase). Click connect, and you should be good!

I have not yet created a failure module for solar panels because it's difficult dealing with panels that are physically broken by impacts. As it is, once they're broken, you can't click on them anymore, and then in order to actually repair them, I'd have to destroy the old part in code and recreate it, which I'm sure is possible, but physically modifying ships is a bit out of my range at the moment.

Blender 2.6.x and Unity 4 are still highly recommended. My tutorials cover that particular way of doing it, and as that method, to the best of my knowledge, isn't broken, it's best to stick with it since it is the most documented. I do know of CRP, and you have an interesting idea, but in order to implement it, it's not the CRP you need, as all it is, is a set of resources. Regolith is what you want. That is the framework from which you can define your Radiation resource. From there, I'd say you could then use ModuleManager to apply the resource to all relevant parts as well as a "ModuleRadiationReceiver" module which would actually perform the receiving of the radiation, depending on the location. And if you'd like to add compatibility with Kerbal Mechanics, have right at it! I'm a bit busy with actually managing it, another mod, and some other projects to help, but I did design it to be easy to add to.

The changes between 0.23(.5) and 0.90 are minimal, so at the least, 90% of the information found in the videos is relevant. I'm not going to guarantee it'll work 100%, but the information should get you on the right track. As for science parts, it really shouldn't be that hard to implement. My tutorials do cover general part making, but they do touch on how to add a module of any type in, and the method of adding module X is the same as module Y, there are just different things to configure. So the easiest way to figure that out is to look at a preexisting science part. Let's see... Ah, here we go. Ok so it is a bit more work for science parts in particular, because you not only have to define the part, but you also have to define the experiment. So I'd recommend the following: 1: Look at "GameData/Squad/Parts/Science/GooExperiment/gooExperiment.cfg" for how to set up a ModuleScienceExperiment on your part. 2: Look at "GameData/Squad/Resources/ScienceDefs.cfg" to figure out how to define a science experiment. 3: Define your own science experiment in your own ScienceDefs.cfg file in your own mod folder ("<your mod>/Resources/ScienceDefs.cfg"). 3: Make your part and define it in its config file, referencing the experiment ID you made in your science definition. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask, k?

Updated! v0.6.3: - Fixed App window bug on resolutions other than 1080p.

Updated! v1.0.1: - Fixed App window bug on resolutions other than 1080p. - Fixed Draft alert window always showing "Draft Failed".

Copied from PM to me from Ricardo79: What doesn't make sense about this is that the config doesn't reference "smokePoint" at all. Maybe this is something that is taken in code without using the config... Either way, if it's working, then great!

No worries, Ippo. Keep up the good work!

Updated! v0.6.2: - Fixed KSP App Launcher bug when switching to the main menu and back. - Fixed bug with App window not showing when an alert is showing.

It may take some time. I don't know how long it takes Kerbal Stuff to update CKAN.

FAR requires that your turns only be of a certain angle at any given time. You cannot turn very suddenly using FAR because that causes more drag and flight instability on your craft than it does proper change in direction of travel. I can't explain why this is because that's getting into real world aerodynamics, which I am not good at, but trust my when I say you cannot point your rocket at too great an angle from your direction of travel or it will make your craft unstable. Now, in order to properly gravity turn, it actually depends on what speed your craft is when. Some crafts are so heavy that they need to start them late. Some are light and fast and need to start early. So as a rule of thumb, you should start your turn very early, around 5km or so, and turn very slowly. And I mean early and slowly. You should indeed be at 45 degrees at 10km, but you need to start early enough to get there with a slower turn.

If there is anyone that runs KSP on Linux, I'm looking for someone to assist me in making KCE cross-platform. There are some things I need to know about Linux's KSP installation to continue. Message me if you're interested in helping.
