If this is the case, not checked myself yet, then maybe there needs to be some functionality for when vessel changing occurs? Like removing all temp joints on vessel change? The only other thing I can think of would be to maybe make the KJR joints permanent for the vessel config until the scene changes?

Yes I have other mods installed, and just checked and yes EVS is installed. Is this a known conflict or EVS problem?

It's related to the KJRAutoStrutHelper "part". As soon as that fires it seems to kill the affected vessel and all its crew!

There weren't any parts with that name in my save, just loads of Missing astronauts!! Hope you can what and where this bug is hiding!

I'm getting this too, when I switch to vehicles that have decoupled, the game kills the vehicle because "KJRAutoStrutHelper" is missing. I've lost 2 space stations so far, just going to head off into the gamesave to see if I can try to salvage them

Hey @Ezriilc The http error is only on the file download - IIRC (It was a few hours ago when I tried) 429: Too many requests - the site's fine, just whichever download I chose seemed to be getting a lot of hits? On a separate note, I will recompile for 1.4.1 at some point in the next few days, I'm just hunting down a bug that may or may not be HyperEdit related!

Hi @Jirokoh I'm curious why you're still running 1.2.2? Other than trying an earlier version of HyperEdit I can't really offer a solution as we're now on KSP version 1.4.1 and I know some things have changed since the version you're choosing to use. Have you tried using the mods in their relevant latest KSP builds?

When you say fine-tune, I assume you mean using the I,J,K,L keys whilst the vessel is being lowered to the surface? I'm still ironing out the bugs with fine-tuning as it doesn't seem to behave consistently across all landing bodies. (FWIW, this has always been somewhat of a beta plugin given the time and space bending it does!!) Cheers

Hi @Daniel0102 and welcome to the forums! Are you using the latest beta version of HyperEdit? It should work as intended if so. Otherwise we'll need some more info to debug this. Cheers

So, good news, thanks to @linuxgurugamer's excellent video I can now recreate this error. Bad news, the jury's still out on how to solve it. I haven't tried to find a cut-off point (yet!) but when I tried a higher value (as in greater than the body's high space altitude) this behaviour doesn't seem to happen? Either that or it's not really noticeable due to the altitude and planet surface not being as detailed. I will continue to try and find a solution other than saying "don't teleport to an orbit with x altitude"

Cheers for this, @linuxgurugamer A video works wonders for these kinds of bugs I'll have another look for possibilities as to why or how this is happening. EDIT: And commentary too, nice. (Where is your accent from? btw) Cheers again

Hi @alexilahio Welcome to the forums If you can build it in the VAB or SPH then you can use HyperEdit to move it elsewhere! (Everything's a vessel when all's said and done!) When I'm building bases I do it in the SPH as it's more conducive for building flat structures (Space Stations are better planned in the VAB). You might want to grab this plugin too as it extends the buildable area of your vessels (so you can create massive things so long as your machine can keep up with the Part Count!). So, a quick tutorial is what you were hoping for? Build your base, making sure you include everything you need and some kerbals, and probably some way of communicating with the KSC!). Launch, so that you're out in the game. Open up HyperEdit, go to the Orbits panel and it should be set to the Active Vessel and the body should say Kerbin. Apply the orbit. Decide where you want to put your base, then change the orbit body to that planet. Quick-Save for safety/convenience reasons! Open up the ship lander panel and make sure the selected body is set to the planet you're orbiting. Stick in the Lat/Lon coordinates - it will probably take a bit of guessing (I always try to make sure it's somewhere on the planet that is getting sunlight for the solar panels) Now for the tricky part, the Alt(itude). For most vessels this can be anything below 100 but with bases you need to be careful that you don't end up clipping the surface as I'm still working out the kinks of orientating vessels the right way up. (This is where the Quick-Save/Load can be your friend!!) Click the Land button and with any luck your vessel is near the surface (not under it!) and you have enough space to rotate it so that it ends up landing the right way up! If you're happy with your landing spot you can click the save button to save the lat/lon/alt for your base in case you need to get more stuff there! Profit! Hopefully that gives you an idea of what to do? Cheers

Hi NovellonEntInc (Bit of a mouthful to spell and say!!) If your craft has any resources, then something should show up (monoprop, electric, ablator, fuel, etc). It doesn't appear everywhere as it's only designed to work in certain screens. Though if you've noticed some inconsistencies, that could be interesting! I can have a look at this, though I never use the Planet Editor and was under the impression it worked as intended. Though if you seriously want to manipulate the celestial bodies, you should maybe have a look at Kopernicus- as this does seem to be the standard way within the community! Cheers

No, it's just Windows 10 Another successful M$ product!

I occasionally get permission problems in Windows 10 and it's usually folders that somehow forget it's my machine!! (And yes, it's a long-shot but worth a check so we can rule it out)

Ahhh, cheers, I'll add rovers to my checks. And yes it should create a folder in the plugin folder, like GameData -> KerbalTek -> HyperEdit -> PluginData -> hyperedit.cfg ---> windowpos.cfg ---> landcoords.cfg (so that's 3 files in the PluginData directory). If HyperEdit isn't creating any files then it could be a permission problem on one of the folders in the hierarchy.

I would probably need to know what you class your vessel as? (as I'm sure there isn't a stock way of saying it's a boat or a sub or whatever?!) (BTW, what mod are you using for this cos I could check for this and provide a conditional fix for the vessels) Yeah, what @Ezriilc said, it's a good idea to try again, and failing that you'll need to land them next to each other (or try the IJKL tweaking to see if that helps!) As far as the settings saving goes, I haven't seen this behaviour so I'm curious which dll version you're running? Cheers

I don't think it's a case of wrong coords, I think it's more to do with the precision of said coords. But saying that, if you can give us some test data to work with it can make things easier to fix! Cheers

Yes we do need more test data, but being "out" by a couple of degrees is your best chance! The Lander does sometimes drift you if you've visited those coords before - as far as I can tell it's a safety feature (for times like when testing bases or when you want multiple vessels to be in the same vicinity. If you can give us what you entered into the lander (either here or on github) then it will help with testing! So, Body, Lat, Lon, Altitude should do it Cheers

@blowfish @Ezriilc I've done this change in my current build - just sorting out a UI bug before I do a PR!

I agree. It sounds like you're using a "dodgy" copy as there wasn't a proper released version (only the pre-release for testing planned changes). And the wiki - https://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Version_history - has no mention of that version. You should really support indie developers! and FWIW it's half price in the Steam Winter sale. Bargain!

I'm happy to help (I'm sure I've said that before?!) plus it gives me a break from other games and/or web development!

Yeah we should probably go thru the issues to see what's been addressed. I understand more of the logic of HyperEdit now, just want to get more and better understanding of it! And be able to alter the User Interface confidently!!

Yeah, sorry, I was intending to play a bit of WoW for a break from space but then saw the problem with time warp so thought I might as well sort it out!

Yeah I always thought of HyperEdit as a kind of God-mode. It's a tool to test ideas out, like building a base in some far off world, or setting up a satellite network. In my current test build (not released) I'm killing Time Warp when doing the Land maneuver. It only does this while landing and seems to be working okay!
