What's the purpose of the rocket mode for the fly-by-wire?

normal mode - sideslip is kept at zero when no user input is provided, sideslip itself is the setpoint.

rocket mode - yaw is controlled the same way as pitch - angular velocity is the setpoint.

Ah, thanks, that makes sense.

I'm not sure what's going on, but suddenly RCS doesn't work when Standard FBW is engaged. Mechjeb also loses it's ability to control when FBW is engaged.

Don't know about RCS, but don't activate multiple autopilots simultaneously. It's not supposed to work.

I was asking another forum user for his expertise, just wait. If you really need to play now, just remove AA or resetup KSP without a "downgrade".

hagbard · March 2, 2020

Ok... thank

I play 1.8.1 to correctly support other mod. I will try on 1.9.0 and report result.

Best regards

hagbard · March 2, 2020

re Hi...

i m trying something alway in 1.8.1 :

Uninstal AA mode (using CKAN) and Run KSP
Open Stock Craft in ("thunderbird" plane) in SPH and clone it (saving on antoher name, "thunderbird-bis" for example)
Exit and close KSP
Reinstall AA mod and re-Run KSP

it works !! I can open the cloned craft and... The Original stock Craft !!! ("thunderbird" plane).. what??

~~Some other Stock Craft dont Open, i will try repeat operation and repport result in this post...~~

EDIT : Its work with all SPH' stock Craft Plane.

Is not an user friendly solution but maybe give a way to fix it ??

SaveUpgradePipeline.v180_ModuleControlSurface.OnUpgrade

This is not right. It should call for v180_ModuleControlSurfaceFixed.OnUpgrade instead. Is there a line "[UpgradeScriptFix] Successfully replaced the v180 upgrade scripts." somewhere in the beginning of the log? For me it happens right after the main menu loading, like this

[LOG 19:53:42.059] [HighLogic]: =========================== Scene Change : From LOADING to MAINMENU =====================

And if not, are there some exceptions from KSPUpgradeScriptFix.UpgradeScriptFix.Awake? How did you install the mod? Is there a file KSPUpgradeScriptFix.dll somewhere?

Mod install using CKAN.

If KSPUpgradeScriptFix.dll is not installed can i manually copy it ? If yes where is the corect file loaction ?

in GameData or in GameData/AtmosphereAutopilot should be fine.

This tip is it aviable with 1.9.x ?

So whenever I have this mod installed it ruins my aircraft's elevons by enabling everything (pitch yaw and roll). Is there any way that this can be avoided? It's been happening ever since I started using this mod a few years back.

I'm fighting this thing for some time, and managed to get the history of it.

The Module AA uses to do its thing extends (an OOP term) the stock ModuleControlSurface. The problem is that by doing it, the module itself is renamed on the craft, and so the default values are reapplied.

Initially things worked fine, but somewhere in 2014 (if memory serves me right) something inside KSP changed and so this misbehaviour started to bite us.

In a nutshell: the ModuleControlSurface is renamed SyncModuleControlSurface. New crafts and savegames, after installing AA works fine because everything is created from scratch, using SyncModuleControlSurface. But older savegames and craft gets the control surfaces reset to default because the ModuleControlSurface data is ignored, and a new SyncModuleControlSurface one is created with default values.

There's a cumbersome workaround for it: using an editor, open the craft and savegames (after making backaups!!) and replace every instance of "ModuleControlSurface" to "SyncModuleControlSurface" - this will "import" your artifacts to be used on a KSP with AA installed.

The other way around is also possible - exporting savegames and crafts to a AA-less instalment is essentially doing the inverse: replace every SyncModuleControlSurface to ModuleControlSurface.

An automated tool to do that would be the ideal solution, however.

Trying to use this in 1.9.1 and for some reason it pins the rudder to full nose left deflection, any solutions?

Look into the mods you have installed and see if you have some obvious autopilot-y conflicts.

NippyFlippers · April 29, 2020

Maybe I am just dumb, but is there a way to have the AA performing a continuous turn at a constant turn rate? (While keeping a constant speed and altitude)

How do you use the stock trim system with this mod? I'd like to pitch up very gently using trim but it doesn't seem to affect the aircraft. Trim on roll and yaw also seems to have no effect. I looked up the word "trim" in this thread and someone does talk about it like it does work. Maybe it is a problem with my installation?

Thank you for the mod by the way. I've been playing KSP for ages and I wish I had found this earlier.

Sorry, but no, there is no way to use stock trim. If you wish to pitch up very gently I can suggest caps lock (precise mode) and stricter pitch/roll rate constaints. Maybe reducing quadr Kp in angvel detailed window will do what you want and make keyboard more gentle.

Is there a way to use Atmosphere AutoPilot with kOS to script flying at different altitudes?

To pick up on this old post, I have made a mod that extends kOS to allow it to control AA from script.

Currently supported are: toggling mode (fbw, director, cruise), setting director vector, setting some cruise params.

Note that the director is not mouse director, I've added a new kOS director to avoid the mouse interfering.

Download (and code) here: https://github.com/RCrockford/kOS-AtmosphereAutopilot/releases

Usage:

You can access it with ADDONS:AA it has the following boolean suffixes: FBW, DIRECTOR, CRUISE, SPEEDCONTROL, PSEUDOFLC, scalar: SPEED, HEADING, ALTITUDE, VERTSPEED, and vector: DIRECTION

e.g.

set addons:aa:altitude to reqAltitude.
set addons:aa:heading to reqHeading.
set addons:aa:cruise to true.

or

set addons:aa:direction to heading(reqHeading, reqPitch):Vector.
set addons:aa:director to true.
