Kerbal Science Monitor v0.3 [WIN] (1.0.4) - Standalone .Net App

[ultek]

Kerbal Science Monitor v0.3

Download here

I was missing fast, stand-alone app which could help me to track my science research while space cruising. So here is one.

It connects with the internet to check for updates and submit unknown science data from your savegame. Feel free to test it with your savegames.

Load persistent.sfs file from you Kerbal Space Program \saves\ directory.

.net 4.0 required...

v0.3

- window resize available

- refresh and auto refresh function (will auto update on savefile modification)

- updated values for mun/minmus/kerbal/ksc (still a lot of work to do...)

- bugfixes (like error on start; locking savefile, etc.)

Love the app, 2 minor bug Reports for you. First is the window is not able to be sized. Second, on the Kerbol tab, you have in Space low twice.

Otherwise a beautiful job.

Feature idea for you would be a button/key to refresh from the file instead of having to open the file again.

Any chance it's portable and will run with Mono on Mac/Linux (like CKAN does)?

Does it support science from mods (for example DMagic) or just stock science modules?

It connects with the internet to [...] submit unknown science data from your savegame.

Can you expand on that? Where is it sending "unknown science data", and why?

Thanks for info, I'll fix that soon. Also refresh option is not a problem, I will put it somewhere...

Tbh I don't use linux, but if Mono supports .net then it should be working. Nothing fancy here.

Not yet, but I've got currently a couple of reports from science addons. In future - If any additional data got detected - more tabs will apear assigned to specific mods.

Can you expand on that? Where is it sending "unknown science data", and why?

Basically whole unparsed (in fact undisplayed) data will be reported through POST to my php script on http://ksm.ultek.eu/parser.php

Here is example of submitted file: http://ksm.ultek.eu/data/Kariera%20(CAREER)_150617_020227_216.txt

This will help me to fix bugs (like in above example - naming the sun as "Sun" not "Kerbol" ) and missing science reports.

But you can always disagree when prompted to send any data.

Updated to 1.0.4

Fixed huge amount of bugs (missing reports mostly);

You can resize the window now,

Added refresh button;

Fixed random crash reports;

Download link in first post.

Great Tool I didn´t realise that so many science still missing in my career

[bernierm]

Awesome! I can finally throw out my stupid Excel spreadsheet.

[ClF3]

Cool tool! It throws me an error as soon as I open my persistent.sfs though. I can click continue and it seems to work ok but the Refresh and Statistics menu options are greyed out. Windows 8.1 (fully updated)

************** JIT Debugging **************

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

application or computer (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

enabled.

For example:

<configuration>

<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />

</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

rather than be handled by this dialog box.

I'm getting the same error, Windows 7. The rest of my game is stock aside from MechJeb, so I don't think its a corrupted save sort of problem or anything.

[ultek]

could you send me your persistent.sfs file to (edit: got it, thanks!)?

thanks in advance.

Refresh and Statistics options are coming soon in next release.

[ClF3]

If you need another example, I can send you mine tonight. Just let me know

[ClF3]

Just ran into another problem: while having science monitor open, KSP was complaining (in the debug log) about a sharing violation on persistent.sfs. Closing science monitor resolved that issue.

v0.3

- window resize available

- refresh and auto refresh function (will auto update on savefile modification)

- updated values for mun/minmus/kerbal/ksc (still a lot of work to do...)

Fantastic changes. Love it that i can leave this on my second monitor and it will reflect my current progress.
