I know I'm late, but...

Current KSP is know to have some sort of terrain issue. (One aspect is exemplified by the T3 and T2 runways not being aligned properly and showing seams.) As far as I know, all of Kerbin has that issue to some degree. (Plenty of mentions of rover suddenly flipping out at particular locations, IIRC.) I imagine this is related. I've had vessels sitting on the ground but look like they're floating like half a meter above it and what not. It seems like an inherent collision detection versus visual rendering problem in KSP itself due to the changes from 1.1.x to 1.2.x.

i never really notice these on Kerbin myselfe.  but Duna...  from orbit it looks like a deathstar with a giant square laser...

I have a problem where all of the robotic parts in this pack (even the rework) do not show up in the servo editor. Only Konstruction parts show up. Can someone help? (P.S. The IR Icon on toolbar is different.)

The problem with the sampler not working was caused by my using galileo planet pack and the way the surface sampler code tries to determine if its touching something sample-able. I wrote a patch for that and made a pull request for it on github. 

The weird visual collision glitch remains, but the sampler works whether it "sinks" into the ground or not.

Ok, my button showed up when I used that guy's toolbar (Blizzard, IDK how to spell it) but the GUI for IR only showed for 1 launch of the game. I know the fix for it is somewhere in the config.xml but I do not know what to do with the numbers. I saw a form post with the numbers but I lost it.

[ZodiusInfuser]

Try deleting the IR config (it will get recreated when you launch KSP). It could be that the coordinates saved for where to put the window has placed it off your screen. I've had this before, but mainly when I go from a high resolution to a low one.

[Jackaroo0505]

Ok, I lunched KSP once and copied the config.xml to my desktop and edited it so it used Blizzy's Toolbar. Now it works all the time (I think the copied version is fixing it.)

This happens to me too, does anybody know what to do about it? :c

Third.

Hinges, foldotrons etc. don't work.  Really the only thing I want too, to fold out solar arrays

Hi. Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'm looking for a mod with a robotic arm that can grab onto another part. Does this mod include such a part? If no? Can someone point me to a mod that does? Thanks

[Jackaroo0505]

Ok, I am trying to make an Kerbinada arm (Canada Arm in KSP) but I don't think it likes hinge on hinge action even when there are things separating them. Any help?

[Rokmonkey]

@yorshee @Halitsu

 

I fixed the problem on my end.  Do you have Kerbal Joint Reinforcement installed, specifically through CKAN?  Check here and grab the dev version of KJR linked:

https://github.com/MagicSmokeIndustries/InfernalRobotics/issues/146

It fixed my problem perfectly.\

@Jackaroo0505  I tried making a robot arm after this fix and it went fine.  Maybe you have the same issue?

[Jackaroo0505]

@Rokmonkey Yes (Maybe?) but I do have JKR installed and it still happens.

Right, but do you have the Dev version of KJR that I linked?  That fixed for me.

[Jackaroo0505]

Will Try that @Rokmonkey

When I try to use the robotics, they work fine in the hanger, but they get all gibbled when I launch. This example is only showing one part, but the pistons, rotaters, etc don't work either. 

The parts on either side of the robotic parts act like they are connected directly, so when I try to move the robotics it just breaks the parts connected to them

i have that problem too, and already tried the solution posted by @Rokmonkey, still not working.

Also, the Canadarm page said to turn off autostrut. None of the IR parts have the autostrut part in their configs.

[Jackaroo0505]

I am not using the Canadarm mod; I'm just making a homemade one.

Okay, silly question then.  Are you sure you didn't put the hinges on backwards?  They will work fine in the VAB but not outside.  The model rework places little yellow arrows showing which side is the base.

@Rokmonkey I installed KJR Dev (could not find the most up to date one) and it worked. Now I can move (even my craft) me Kerbanarm!

[Vince_K]

ok... I reinstalled the mod but I did not install the legacy part. for me, the only part that is still bugged is the reworks basic hinge. check your build. The other parts works well for me

yup. that was fine. ill do a reinstall and see, also i did the autostrut thing using this in config.

 

@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[ModuleWheelBase]]
{
	@MODULE[ModuleWheelBase]
	{
		%autoStrut = False
	}
}

 

idk if i'm missing something or did something wrong 

[Jackaroo0505]

@Vince_K Try the dev version of KJR. That fixed it for me!

Is there a way to do a TweakScale config that will only apply TweakScale to IR parts, I have many other mods installed and don't want to have tweakscale on everything.

you just need to delete configs for tweakscaling other parts and left only those regarding IR parts. I think that all config files regarding TweakScale are in Tweakscale folder, but it is always possible that some moder wrote those scaling configs inside their own mod.
