Add life support to NFT mk3-9. Need help

[Sokar408]

Can anyone tell me why this isn't working?

// Adds life support to NFT Mk3 pod

@PART[mk3-9pod]:FINAL
{
    RESOURCE
    {
        name = Food
        amount = 1.097
        maxAmount = 1.097
        @amount *= 2
        @maxAmount *= 2
    }
    RESOURCE
    {
        name = Water
        amount = 0.725
        maxAmount = 0.725
        @amount *= 2
        @maxAmount *= 2
    }
    RESOURCE
    {
        name = Oxygen
        amount = 111.038
        maxAmount = 111.038
        @amount *= 2
        @maxAmount *= 2
    }
    RESOURCE
    {
        name = CarbonDioxide
        amount = 0
        maxAmount = 95.913
        @maxAmount *= 2
    }
    RESOURCE
    {
        name = Waste
        amount = 0
        maxAmount = 0.1
        @maxAmount *= 2
    }
    RESOURCE
    {
        name = WasteWater
        amount = 0
        maxAmount = 0.924
        @maxAmount *= 2
    }
}

To my knowledge this should add the lifesupport resources to the pod, but for some reason it doesn't.

Make sure that you have TACLS installed. I also have the Mk3-9 pod, but it includes 2 days of LS without having to add anything.

Lemme check my file real quick though.

Edit: OK... pulled up the part, doesnt show. HOWEVER, TACLS does include a config that will automatically add LS to anything that is crewed. Its located in the folder of TACLS, titled MM_AddResources.cfg. If you do not have this file, try adding this to a cfg file

// Add life support resources to every command pod with crew capacity and minimum crew > 0, unless it already has Food.

    {
        name = Food
        amount = 1.097
        maxAmount = 1.097
        @amount *= #$/CrewCapacity$
        @maxAmount *= #$/CrewCapacity$
    }
    RESOURCE
    {
        name = Water
        amount = 0.725
        maxAmount = 0.725
        @amount *= #$/CrewCapacity$
        @maxAmount *= #$/CrewCapacity$
    }
    RESOURCE
    {
        name = Oxygen
        amount = 111.038
        maxAmount = 111.038
        @amount *= #$/CrewCapacity$
        @maxAmount *= #$/CrewCapacity$
    }
    RESOURCE
    {
        name = CarbonDioxide
        amount = 0
        maxAmount = 95.913
        @maxAmount *= #$/CrewCapacity$
    }
    RESOURCE
    {
        name = Waste
        amount = 0
        maxAmount = 0.1
        @maxAmount *= #$/CrewCapacity$
    }
    RESOURCE
    {
        name = WasteWater
        amount = 0
        maxAmount = 0.924
        @maxAmount *= #$/CrewCapacity$
    }
}

*= just multiplies the defined amount. There is no need to do that if you are defining the amount, just double the number. It's just shorthand for x = x * 2

}

I have this ofc, as it comes with the mod, however the mk3-9 pod for some reason doesn't get any. I'm assuming its because its doubling as probe core, and has a minimum crew = 0.

I did this because the code it copied and only slightly modified from the file that comes with TACLS, use usually looks like what Sovek linked.

Moved to modding.

All you have to do is change minimumCrew = 0 to minimumCrew = 1, and you'll have life support.

Otherwise,if you still want to use it as probe core,then you need the whole patch.

        amount = 0
        maxAmount = 0.924
        @maxAmount *= #$/CrewCapacity$
    }
}

That was the first thing I tried. It didn't work, and I assumed it might be because of the "#$/CrewCapacity$" modifier, as minimum crew = 0, hence the changes you see in my version of the code.

EDIT: Problem found. Turns out I had forgotten a "}" in a previous entry.
