Right-clicking in editor broken

[baldamundo]

I'm running an absurd amount of mods, so I realise the sensible advice is "use fewer mods" or "disable half of them and see if it starts working again", but I figured I'd ask in case this is a known problem or if it's likely to be caused by some particular type of mod.

Right-clicking has always been a bit laggy for me in the editor if I'm running a bunch of mods, but lately it's gotten worse - sometimes right-clicking just flat out refuses to work at all. When it happens, it normally lasts at least for the duration of that editor session. Sometimes it lasts until I quit and reload, which I /think/ resets it. It seems as if there are some other triggers for resetting it, but I can't work out what they are reliably - but sometimes it starts working again while I'm in the editor, sometimes it starts working again after doing things outside of the editor and going back.

And it's not right-clicking broken entirely - it still works to look at the part info in the sidebar (although it behaves a bit weirdly when this happens) - it's only for the context menu you get when right-clicking a part that that's been placed in the editor. And when you try to do that, it lags horribly for a bit, but the menu just never comes up. Sometimes the lag doesn't go away until you pick up a part.

Right-clicking outside of the editor normally continues to work, I think, although it's still laggy.

Oh, and this seems more likely to break if the part you're right-clicking is a command module, possibly just for any module with crew space, and possibly it doesn't like root parts, although that might just be co-incidence.

Anyway, I'm running an awful lot of mods, so finding out what's causing it is liable to take forever, but I just thought I'd post to see if anybody else has ever had an issue like this, to see if it's a known problem, or even just to see if anyone could suggest what /sort/ of mod is likely to cause it, so I can maybe narrow it down more easily.

Any info would be much appreciated!

It seems as if what often happens, is I'll try to right-click on a command module, and that seems to break it, with right-clicking on any other modules also broken thereafter.

Only thing I can think of is that there's so much UI clutter that the mouse events aren't being registered, it's known that KSP has UI problems in Unity4x, and all the additional UI elements added by mods means there's more calls to update the UI.

A badly made addon UI or modified action menu can also cause lag due to excessive redraws.

If you take a look at the support stickes and provide the necessary logs then people may be able to see if something is going on, there may be a lot of logspam exacerbating the issue.

It may also help to reduce your mouse polling rate or DPI, as that can also cause issues, check your mouse software and OS documentation for how to do that.

A bit more testing seems to confirm that it's specifically right-clicking on a command module that's breaking it. And most of the time quitting the editor and going back again fixes it...or fixes everything other than command modules :/

Huh...looks like it's Tweakable Everything

I've since reinstalled Tweakable Everything...and it's still working fine
