Probe cores inside service bay


Recommended Posts

Sometimes when I build my unmanned rockets and put probe core inside cervice bay, the part (service bay, especially 2.5m version) start to shake insanely and sometimes it makes my rocket break in that joints (but not explode surprisingly). If I disable torque on the probe core - everything goes normal. The same thing happens if I put something inside that don't fit in size (cylundrified monopropellant tank rotated vertically for example). I know that part clipping is bad but this don't happen with other parts (I suspect that is because other parts don't have "fairing" behaviour) and some parts can have slightly bigger colliders (maybe, I am not pro in models, physics and such) so if everything looks okay (visually) thad doesn't mean that it is actually okay. And looks like that attaching to the bottom node in the bay have more chances to generate this issue.

UPD: Looks like the reason of shaking was not in the probe with torque, but in colliders conflict. This happens only with closed doors. When I open the doors - everything comes to a normal state.

I'm playing a science game and I've not yet gotten Tech for the 2.5m Service Bay, but I do have the 1.25m Service bay and I have mounted an OKTO inside it ... no problems so far. I should have the 2.5m Service Bay soon - I'll try it out too.

Which probe core are you using?

I'm using Probodobodyne OKTO. And checked it again: cannot get this shaking with probe again. So maybe that was not-so-obvious-clipping issue. But I am still curious: is it should be fixed or is it supposed behaviour that I just have to take into account.

I also noticed an issue with colliders and service bays (and already reported it so Squad may check). Thanks for the valuable info.

Well, nice to know. Hope it will be fixed somehow. Seeng the bay affected by ghost forces when putting a pair of radial chutes that about to fit inside makes me really worry.
