[1.0.2] Sentinel Memory Monitoring Utility (v0.3 Beta)

[Jim3535]

This mod is great.

It would be awesome if we could toggle the display with the toolbar button.

It doesn't seem to work for me, but it's no biggie as I was just curious about how much memory my Linux 64-bit install uses compared to my Windows 32-bit effort. Apparently zero memory used ;-)

If Sarbian wants me to post any logs, can do, but I'm a beginner with Linux so you'll have to bear with me.

Is this normal?

Failed to load assembly C:\Kerbal Space Program 1.0\GameData\KSEA\Sentinel\Native\getRSS_x86.dll:

Yes. This is due to the native plugin being loaded and KSP/Unity not being 100% cool with it. They're only 92.3% cool with it. Both Sentinel and GCMonitor should throw this exception as they both depend on the same native plugin.

After some tests, RamRush does not stop the game from crashing, and also distorts some planets ground textures. My Kerbin's grass texture became wavy.

You are fully correct and I stand corrected. It seems like my tests with RAMRush were nothing but placebo effects doing their thing.

Not sure why you're mentioning this here. Might be more useful to forward this to Sarbian in the GCMonitor thread.

Is there a way to have it constantly display the memory usage? Maybe with a toggle?

Otherwise, I still need to switch to Windows Task Manager.

No. The entire purpose of this mod is to only warn your usage in the most minimalist way possible. In my mind, there is no need for you to monitor your memory usage as a percentage. You only need to worry when the program tells you to worry. Otherwise, keep playing. Simple. Effective. Easy. It just demands a bit of trust on your part. Ask yourself: Do I really NEED to know exactly how much RAM I'm using? Or do I just need to know if I'm close to capacity or not?

But if you can't trust the machine, then maybe GCMonitor has the feature you are asking for. So maybe you should check it out!

This mod is great.

Thank you! Unfortunately, I don't think I will be updating this mod with new features due to time constraints. Adding a toolbar button should be easy enough. No promises, but I'll keep it on a sticky note ... somewhere.
