Jimbodiah Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) Only one problem is that the cargo section is from my patch pack. I know Mage is working on an even better part than mine and it might be coming in a release soon, but without my patches you will not have the VolumeContainer functionality right now. I made an SSTU-only version, but using my JPL patch for the ATV section that also has a probe core, SAS, reaction wheel and a science box built in for returning science home.

onurycl Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 hey i have an issue the modular fuel tank dont got fairings in my game and also i cant change the color of the modular upper stage and its bulkhead is this normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbodiah Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Which MFT doesn't get fairings? I've used the MFT-A extensively since the .137 update and have no problems with it. I will check on the MUS colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbodiah Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 (edited) Jimbo's tip of the day Q: Need a radial attachment point to put that docking port on but that stock radial frisbee thingy is just too big or too fugly for your taste??? Well look no further...A: The SSTU MFT-A tank will attach radially, so just rotate it, set the length to the shortest version, configure tank type to "structural" and presto... custom radial attachment points.

Rodger Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 @Shadowmage I'm getting this NRE spam: [EXC 00:20:32.276] NullReferenceException UnityEngine.Transform.Rotate (Vector3 axis, Single angle, Space relativeTo) SSTUTools.SSTUAnimateRotation.Update () when I do the following: In the VAB, place a command pod or something else as root stack two centrifuges (of the same size) under the root part inflate both centrifuges, then alt-click the one attached to root, so you pick up a copy of both centrifuges at once observe NRE spam it goes away if you trash the ghost parts you just picked up, or if after placing them you deflate the last two parts, or delete them. It doesn't happen if the group is two different sized centrifuges. It happens when you pick up a copy of any group of parts if there's at least 2 inflated rotating centrifuges of the same size in the group. If you need a log I can get one later which isn't full of career gameplay, just wanted to post before I go to bed in case you can reproduce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(basically when alt-click cloning parts in the editor, KSP skips past 95% of the initialization code.... which as you might guess, causes problems with things then not being initalized properly). File it on the bug-tracker, I'll look into fixing it for the next release. Include logs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pap1723 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Hi @Shadowmage, I am hoping you can help me understand the numbers I am seeing. I am trying to set sizes of the engines and to then determine what the Mount Sizes will be. Can you help me with the math and how it all works? Here are the modified numbers of the RD-0110: @engineScale = 1.5646 @engineSpacing = 2.3 @engineMountDiameter = 1.9 @diameterIncrement = 0.1 If I clear the mount to be nothing, the mount is still set to be 2.2. I cannot figure out why it defaults to this when none of those values are set above and the mountSizeMult = 1. Thanks for the help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowmage Posted July 20, 2017 Author Share Posted July 20, 2017 @pap1723 IIRC (and its been awhile, so I might not), about the only thing you should need to touch is the 'engineScale'. It scales everything else automatically -- spacing, diameters, etc. (You still need to adjust the mass, cost, and engine module values though) I would suggest you give that a try first, and see if it behaves more like you would expect. So the entirety of the patch would be: @engineScale = 1.5646 (It was intended to be very simple/easy to convert the engines for RSS / other rescale use) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That did the trick, now if I want to fine tune it a little bit, that will be easy enough to do. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowmage Posted July 21, 2017 Author Share Posted July 21, 2017 Regarding the docking ports integrated into the StationCore parts -- Before I go and remove a feature that will break save games, I thought I would ask for a bit of help in trying to solve the problems regarding that feature (I would prefer to keep it if possible, but the current bugs are unacceptable). https://github.com/shadowmage45/SSTULabs/issues/382 https://github.com/shadowmage45/SSTULabs/issues/522 Basically there appears to be inconsistent problems with the switchable/optional docking ports on the StationCore parts. The problem manifests as craft/vessels being unable to undock in some situations. This renders the vessels permanently joined, with the only options of fixing the problem being sending up an entirely new craft/vessel/station or manual save game editing. A separate/second problem apparently exists with a 'decouple' option being available in some cases, even when no docking port was selected (this problem is likely easy to solve, but still need to know how to replicate it). What I need in order to be able to track down and (hopefully) fix the problem is a method to reliably reproduce the problem. My current attempts to reproduce it have been inconsistent at best, and mostly a waste of time. This is where you all come in I am looking for a set of stock+sstu only save game files; one save right before docking, one save right after the 'no undocking bug' has occurred, and a list of the precise steps needed to trigger the problem from the 'pre-dock' save. (technically only the pre-dock and list of steps are needed, but quick access to a post-dock-bug save will allow me to run a diff on the save files to check for corrupted or incorrect saved game-state) If other methods to consistently reproduce the problem exist, I would also accept information regarding them (e.g. specific design setups / list of steps to cause the problem to manifest). In the end all I am looking for is a reliable method to reproduce the problem so that I can actually work on debugging and fixing it. If I can't reproduce it, I won't be able to fix it. If I cannot get this fixed in the next few days/weeks, I will be removing the optional/switchable docking ports from the StationCore parts entirely. This will be save/vessel breaking if it happens (might only effect vessels using the optional integrated docking ports, but might effect all station-core parts, unknown how far the breakage would extend).

F1RacerDan Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 i can tfigure for the life of me why the Merlin rockets have no test data numbers for the rated engine burn? have i installed something wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a question for RO - all the RO configuration is on that side and SSTU by itself does not interact with TestFlight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowmage Posted July 25, 2017 Author Share Posted July 25, 2017 This Friday will be the second anniversary of SSTU. I had really wanted to do something commemorative for the occasion. Sadly my current workload is a bit past 'crazy busy', so I'm not sure what I'll be able to pull off. How does adding recoloring support to the SC capsules sound (okay, so probably only one for now)? Worthwhile? (as I think it is mostly texturing work, I might be able to get it done Sat. morning prior to packing up the last weeks worth of bugfixes).
