This was a manual install with no other mods but KSP-AVC. Yup, another goof on my part. It's up to date, just patch the version file to 1.1.3.

johnnyhandsome Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 (edited) How does the engine work? I built a test craft, loaded with pellets, liquid hydrogen and electricity, but the engine never works. It charges and then just seems to flame out. Suggestions? Here's the ship: DSEV test Edited July 3, 2016 by johnnyhandsome trying again to get image to show up, put URL link instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect to continue working on DSEV until sometime after KSP 1.2 is out. I have a lot to do... 2 hours ago, johnnyhandsome said: How does the engine work?

Here's the ship: DSEV test The engine requires electric charge to start. You can provide that through a fusion reactor. Once fully charged you start the engine. Once started, it burns a small amount of FusionPellets while idle/running. After the engine is warmed up, you can use the engine normally. Also, fuel lines are your friend.

Angelo Kerman Posted July 8, 2016 Author Share Posted July 8, 2016 DSEV 1.1.8 is now available! - Fixed radial attachment distances so that tanks will be flush with the part they're attached to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found another tank problem.... FLM-100, the small radial tank. When you configure this for LFO, it gets into like an infinite loop of adding lines for LF and O to the right-click menu. The right click menu expands off the top edge of the screen and keeps on growing, adding repeated lines showing how much LFO is in the tank. If you let this go very long, it will crash your computer. Fortunately, you can snatch the tank off the rocket while this is happening and discard it, thus solving the problem. But the tank is kinda useless for LFO.

Once I reach Core Complete (all Pathfinder IVAs done, some additional parts for Buffalo, finished MOLE parts) then I can start playing again. My goal is to reach Core Complete before KSP 1.2.

By the time I reach Core Complete, I hope to have all the pieces in place so that all I need are the printer and first habitat part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rasta013 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 @Angel-125 Just a heads up with the latest WildBlueTools and DSEV I've noticed a weirdness issue and at least one confirmed bug. The weirdness - and this may be intentional - the hex trusses no longer have empty versions available. I can switch through every tank/container loadout and they all work fine but there is no longer an option for the hollow truss - pressurized crew truss or hollow with nodes. Personally I hope this is a bug and not a change since I use your trusses for large probe frames all the time for the 6 even sides to load up with scanners/science. The Bug - The Mascon ballast cannot have it's mass adjusted currently. It attaches, it delivers it's base 50kg of mass but the right click menu button to open the window and change the mass is gone. I've reinstalled both DSEV and WBT to make sure I didn't have anything mismatched and no joy. I have not yet done a fully stripped down install of just DSEV/WBT/Stock but I do have several testing installs setup at the moment and across the board, small or large mod setup, the mascon cannot be adjusted. Will report back tomorrow with a stripped down test if you haven't checked into these issues before then. As always, thanks for all your work! It is most definitely appreciated.

rasta013 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 (edited) Ok - update on a clean install test. Yes they work but I did find what caused my problem. DSEV doesn't like WBT 1.3.7 or 1.3.8. So long as I use the 1.3.6 that's distributed with it there doesn't seem to be an issue. I had updated to 1.3.8 right after you released it but hadn't noticed the issues above until yesterday since I hadn't needed those parts since then. EDIT: LOL ok so this is really weird. I've downgraded WBT to 1.3.6 under my full mod load and.... The trusses all work again in that I have hollow/crew tube/equipment/tank choices and the MASCON is working again. However, with WBT 1.3.8 I lose those abilities but I gain the ability to swap the tanks around as if it were a Pathfinder module. Under WBT 1.3.6 where they work though, no option to swap to a different container so I have LF/Ox but nothing else available. Just as a note - this is only on the trusses acting weird. The other DSEV tanks have the Reconfigure menu but the trusses have a right-click menu arrow selector under 1.3.8 in order to swap the truss containers to something different like Slag or Pellets.

That'll take a bit, but expect a bug fix soon (TM) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's working fine with WBT 1.3.8 besides those two quirks I mentioned and since I tend to balance properly it's not all that often the MASCON gets used anyway. I've just been making probe cores based around the hex truss with tanks for the transfer stage instead of under it like I usually do.

Angelo Kerman Posted July 23, 2016 Author Share Posted July 23, 2016 DSEV 1.2.0 is now available - Fixed an issue where the Hex Trusses weren't providing the hollow truss configuration. - Fixed an issue where the Hex Trusses weren't allowing you to reconfigure the fuel tanks in their fuel tank configuration. - Hex Trusses now use the standard dialog for configuring resources. - All fuel tanks and trusses can now participate in Pathfinder's resource distribution system. - Fixed an issue where the MASCON mass window wasn't appearing.

Raptor22 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 When do you plan to move on to the N.A.U.T.I.L.U.S.-X re-creation? The DSEV seems pretty good (for now) to me. Have you started anything for the NAUTILUS? Also, what happened to the Copernicus/Constellation project? It said "coming soon" for a while, then vanished. Did you just drop it? What did you get done for it? Sorry for the wall of questions! I'm just curious as to what is going on. (BTW mods I have read 2.1 and 2.2, and I am not pressuring them or anything, I am just curious. So please don't hit me with another forbidden content thing.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
