DMagic Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) OK, looks like i'm going to be first...I've put line between two ships, opened EVA Transfer window, choose amount of resource, clicked "Begin Transfer" button and... nothing happened. Amount sliders reset back to 0% instantly and no transfer was completed.Thanks for the heads up; not sure how that bug made it in there... Fuel line persistence definitely has some problems (which seem to be worse in 1.0.4, but I'm not sure) and there are also problems when changing scenes or boarding a vessel while carrying the fuel line.Edit:Version 1.1 is out; get it on Kerbal Stuff.It fixes a bug that was preventing resource transfer.

hraban Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) Hello DMagic,i have a great problem but i'm not sure what the problem makes. I play with many mods aktiv in OpenGL mode and your EVA Transfer will not connect to any parts of any type. When i load the Game new (with actuall save) the EVA will work ONE time to connect to a Part. That will do only if the first doing in game is to pick up a Engineer and take EVA. I get the new version today and test the cases more then 20 times. Hope you can help me.Thx Edited June 25, 2015 by hraban Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a roulette to make a connection but no more then two connections will do in one session.2. Is a connection done, i must go back to Spacecenter, save and come back to the engineer.3. EVA-Transfer lost connections from time to time.All my EVA-Transfer sessons will be done on my mun-base, not on Kerbin!Greetings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohans1 Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Hi, I tried this mod and it worked once for me. I was able to eva and connect two vessels to refuel one of them. I was unable to make a connection with a third vessel, so I disconnected the first vessel but still could not connect to the third vessel. I could reconnect the original two vessels, but that was it. Will there be a fix to this issue. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REGZZZ Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) I hope this gets fixed.. I really like the concepts and the KISS of it! (EVA Transfer)... I gave up on KIS/KAS after it began to be too unstable and complicated... So this one is just amazing if it works! Thanks for designing it!I have the same prob as above. I was able to use once on two lander on minimus, but nothing works since.. when i come back, there are persistent transfer lines hanging in the air.. and my Kerbals are not able to connect any new lines to anything.. Willing to send pics or logs.. just don't know how to do that :-( (edit: trying now...)cheers.- - - Updated - - -DMagic.. what log files do you need? i will try and provide...

DMagic Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 Version 2.0 of EVA Transfer is out; get it on Kerbal Stuff.It fixes some problems with persistence and reconnecting transfer lines; it should also handle lost connections more gracefully.I rewrote the window GUI code and transfer logic so that it no longer resembles something created by a fourth grader with a poor understanding of object oriented programming. The results are mostly the same. There are a few minor improvements and resources that aren't present in either vessel won't show up in the drop down menu, making it a bit more manageable.

REGZZZ Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Wooohooo! The new version worked like a charm in my little Minmus setup! Thanks so much.. now My Kerbals wont have to starve to death... (they where running out of pizza!) Thanks again, much appreciated and great work!.Now off to colonize Duna... perhaps, after that I'll look into your orbital science pack!Cheers, Reg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainRizla Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Can't seem to get the EVA Transfer pipe to connect to another ship. Can pick the pipe up and can't do anything else other than drop it.The GIF seems to make out that I should be able to drag it to another part but I have no right click menu on the pipe and nothing relevant on the Kerbal.

REGZZZ Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Yes I have the same prob... but since the last update, it works a little better... if you exit to the space center and come back right to your Kerbal (in EVA) then it works... I find that if I do lots of other stuff, after a while it does not work properly like you describe..my 2 cents...Reg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddiew Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Finally remembered the name of Celestial Body Science Editor and found this thread! The game is so much better when Mun/Minmus are unrewarding vs other destinations. Much less temptation for farm every biome with repeat missions. Thanks DMagic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game is so much better when Mun/Minmus are unrewarding vs other destinations. Much less temptation for farm every biome with repeat missions. Thanks DMagic I figured it would have a better home here, where it won't get so easily lost in the release forum.I keep thinking that someday I'll make a more robust version of this. Something with an in-game editor that allows for save-specific settings, similar to my contract rewards modifier. It would probably be very easy to make, I could just recycle most of that addon to create it; or maybe I can try it with the new UI system, it would be good to figure out how to make something a bit more complex. I've never been a fan of config file editing to make changes, it's so much easier to handle it in-game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiew Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) ...I keep thinking that someday I'll make a more robust version of this...That would be fantastic I'd be inclined to suggest a default profile that would nerf Mun/Minmus, and perhaps buff Moho and asteroids?One question - do you have any idea whether body indexes change with Kopernicus planet packs installed? In my head I'd like to think not, but... investigation needed ¬_¬ If at all possible, a UI version that would dynamically inspect the game's planet list would be epic!Not sure if it would be in your realm, but I'd love the ability to tweak returned surface samples to be worth more than any other experiment (maybe 5x more), as an encouragement to getting kerbals out there into space. I tend to play at 20% science return (partly because I use mods like yours to give me more 'periments to do), so the idea that a Duna soil sample is worth a higher value would be a powerful incentive to take an early-game shot for it! ^^*edit* I'll answer myself about the indexes; my Kerbin is at index 1, Mun is at index 2, which is normal. I suspect things beyond Kerbin might have changed, but these are easily gleaned by checking the persistence file for contracts Time to nerf the stuffing out of Kerbin SOI!

DMagic Posted July 11, 2015 Author Share Posted July 11, 2015 I updated the Celestial Body Science Editor; get it on Kerbal Stuff.Be aware that the installation folder has changed for this update. The old editor was placed in GameData/ScienceParamLoader, while the new version is in GameData/ScienceParamModifier. It shouldn't cause a problem to use both at the same time, the new version will simply override any values set using the old version.I spent a few hours ripping out the guts of the Contract Reward Modifier and replacing it with a much simpler system for editing the science multipliers for each body.You simply select a body from the drop down menu, input the desired multipliers into the text boxes and hit Apply. The values will then be updated for that body and stored for that save-file. If you want to use those values as the default settings for all new games (and as the values to be applied when reverting to default; you can also revert to stock values at any time), go into the settings window and push the Save To Config button.You can deactivate the toolbar button when you are done setting values if you want. Simply change the "disableToolbar" field in the config file to False if you want to reactivate the toolbar.The recovered craft data value is used by the contract system for generating rewards and other parameters, as such you have to force the option to edit this value using the settings window.

jlcarneiro Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) Hey, DMagic, these Portrait Stats never cease to amaze me! Thanks! They should be stock!May I give you a suggestion?

Targa Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Love the mods, thanks! Also wanted to mention that Portrait Stats is also useful for when you rescue kerbals.

DMagic Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 (edited) Portrait Stats 4.0 is out; get it on Kerbal Stuff.This version has a few additional features.A settings file is included which can be used to enable or disable tooltips that show when mousing over each icon (they are on by default).Tooltips for the trait icon give info about the trait effects at the current level. Tooltips for the stars icon give info about the Kerbal's career log and the current flight, the number is the experience value for that entry. This is basically the same information found in the astronaut complex.If the stars icon tooltip (expToolTip in the settings file) is disabled this icon won't be displayed in sandbox or science sandbox mode.Edit:Tooltip pictures: Edited August 14, 2015 by DMagic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
