Sahadara Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 How would I go about changing/removing tech limits? I tried changing the max diameter allowed at each upgrade tier as well as making the upgrades available at sooner tech nodes (need those big parts earlier in RSS) but it seems to have no effect. Actually it seemingly worked for the tanks but not any of the other procedural parts. Help would be appreciated. Note: I'm playing with RSS but not RO so I don't have those configs interfering.

These upgrade lines in the individual parts (these are the tanks, but other parts use very similar setups): https://github.com/shadowmage45/SSTULabs/blob/master/GameData/SSTU/Parts/Tanks/SSTU-TANK-MFT-A.cfg#L599-L639 Reference these 'upgrade' parts (again, that is the tanks file; the other files are in the same folder): https://github.com/shadowmage45/SSTULabs/blob/master/GameData/SSTU/Parts/Upgrades/UpgradeParts-MFT.cfg The required tech is set in the upgrade part. Edit/patch those to reference your desired tech. As far as removing the requirements entirely -- been too long since I've played with the system, so couldn't say off the top of my head; but it is an unsupported use-case anyway. It might be doable (should be, even), but couldn't really say one way or the other with any certainty. NOTE: I believe some of the tech-tree related data is loaded into the save-game file, so you may need to start a new game in order to see all of the tech-tree related changes. FURTHER NOTE: Many of the parts reference upgrades for other parts (or did at one point). E.g. the decouplers may use the tank-size upgrade (or they might have their own...). Something to keep in mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be working through some updates for the mod in the upcoming weeks, and I'll try to remember to take a moment to check on this feature and document how to adjust the tech-limits. If you do get it figured out, feel free to post letting others know how it was done; nothing wrong with sharing the information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowmage Posted January 9, 2020 Author Share Posted January 9, 2020 Been quiet for a bit, and about the only thing I can add at this point is 'Promotions Suck'. I mean, getting paid more is great and all, but... having a life would be good too once in awhile. I suppose that is the real trick, finding the balance between the three (work/life/fuel for barter). I do still intend to fix up an official 1.8 release, probably about the time 1.9 drops with how things are going, but it is still in the plans. Now that the holidays are done and all the obligations they bring, I'm truly hoping to have a day or two to spend on coding and cleanup; likely shouldn't take much longer than that, as most everything still works as-is, just needs recompiled/packaged/labeled as compatible. And then I found out yesterday I'm getting another promotion in the near future. Yay? At least this one might, perchance, lead to a bit more 'free' time on occasion; but I'm going to work on getting updates out before then, just in case.

Idontevenkno Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 so for the the craft files you can look up, whenever I try to load them into my game it says that some parts are invalid and are not in my game. Can anyone PLEASE help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowmage Posted February 8, 2020 Author Share Posted February 8, 2020 Finally got a few moments today to work on modding affairs, and the good news is that generally most things seem to be still fully functional; no code changes needed so far. There was however an issue with the procedural fairing shading, which after a few hours mucking about with the generation code, turned out to be a simple issue of a missing normal map texture... a quick config tweak later, and it is back to working as intended Still investigating and cleaning up a few things with the part-icons in the pop-up tooltips, that are getting cropped incorrectly. I've verified that this is something in the shader itself and not in TUs replacement code, but I'm yet to track down the source for the stock icon shaders, so have no reference to how they are configured. The issue itself is odd, because it manifests differently depending on how you flip and scroll through the editor tabs; sometimes a part-icon will get cropped, sometimes not; leaving the editor and re-entering, and performing a different set of actions with the editor tabs and scrolling will manifest in a different set of parts being effected. Very strange to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptor30 Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Hi Shadowmage ! nice to see that you are working on an update... I seems to have an issue with the engines... they don't have any plume and sound.... is that a bug with the 1.8.1 update or is something at my end? I do have all the dependencies installed including real plume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far I'm testing with minimal deps, and sounds and plumes are working in stock; but I'll keep it in mind to check the RealPlume stuff before I publish an update.

Shadowmage Posted February 9, 2020 Author Share Posted February 9, 2020 Managed to make some progress on the icons; put in some hacky guesses at where the light/color multiplication stuff is at, which now gives: (using albedo multiplication) Also managed to fix the clipping issues with the icons. Doing more testing on various aspects; if all goes well, should likely have a release in a few hours. 11 hours ago, raptor30 said: Hi Shadowmage ! nice to see that you are working on an update...

I tested this a bit and didn't run into any issues; you need to be using both the latest RealPlume and Smokescreen though, as there were some 'recent' changes to both that are needed by SSTU.

raptor30 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) so what can be the problem? I do have all the recent versions of real plume and smokescreen and most of the engines specially the LFO ones don't have any plume and no sound and gives me this error in the console when I activate it... they are acting like the small merlin engine that is activated in the picture. here is the outputlog file: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Cl9quIuEV4bnwdvAUHJLD6gikyy9PI98 Edited February 10, 2020 by raptor30 link to log file Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverted to 2.8.7 and the nullrefs were gone. I posted the bug on the smokescreen page here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
