b0ss Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) They don't have conflicting mass/thrust/power consumption/etc. though, do they? i.e. Two very similar engines from either mod require very different amounts of fuel, or two tanks have very different capacity-weight ratios By the way, what happened to these engines???: https://imgur.com/a/HWZQy Edited May 3, 2018 by b0ss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSPNoob Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 (edited) Question about the core health of the engines/reactors, is there a way to repair it? I somehow went from nearly full health to a few percentage after a asteroid capture and burn and now am only getting about 121 KN of thrust with the Emancipator engine. I also have another question about the temps, on the Emancipator no matter what I do the reactor runs at 18035/18000, even dropping thrust and power of the reactor to the lowest it will go I get 18009k. Will this cause damage to the core long term? Edited May 14, 2018 by KSPNoob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will this cause damage to the core long term? Would be cool to have some mechanism to repair the core to some degree. 'Realistically' (in quotes because this IS just a game), core damage like that would likely be in lining plates inside the core and not really replaceable parts. I started mounting my engines on docking ports. That way I can swap/upgrade them. However, my longer ships have some crazy oscillation under thrust, and this may be part of my problem. maybe add some struts that I can break off with KIS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA an engineer for a dangerous mission. He'll need to be Level 5. You also cannot repair a reactor if it's below 10% core integrity, and you cannot repair it above 75%.

b0ss Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Oh gee didn't even realize that was a thing, how well can one hope to properly integrate it with BDA's damage system by playing with modules? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not at all, that'd have to be on BD's end to affect the damage stat field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoE Smash Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 The retractable engine plugin that I believe was installed with Kerbal Atomics did not uninstall when removing kerbal atomics.....I'm not sure if this is a @Nertea issue or a CKAN issue, but I am attempting to inform both parties..... Thanks for all your time and hard work with these mods @Nertea! JoE Smash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoE Smash Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 (edited) Hello @Nertea I typically use CKAN and thusly I have no idea how to install this correctly.... First your OP says you don't support CKAN.....but it's on there. By default CKAN wants you to install Retractable Engines and CryoTanks. I don't know why I need CryoTanks if I plan to use the Liquid Fuel patch with the engines so they use Liquid fuel like the Atomic Engines already in game.... Lastly I don't know where the LiquidFuel.cfg goes exactly even after reading your OP and the Read Me...? It says copy it from the Extras folder into the "appropriate folder." Which folder is that the Patches Folder? Also it looks like one of the files in the patches folder messes with some of the recycled parts nuclear engines....like Lightbulb Atomic Engine (which I use a lot). Can I just delete those cfgs if I don't want this mod to mess those stock parts? Lastly near future propulsion does kind of the same thing (I think). There's a cfg the patches folder that "nerfs" stock ion engines.....what if I don't want that to happen? Delete it? PS Your mods are awesome in general.....they seem to just be a little over my head is all.....they do a lot of things and you seem to be very knowledgeable about using module manager to tweak everything....I don't really know how to do stuff...lol. Thanks, JoE Smash Edited July 27, 2018 by JoE Smash I'm dumb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nertea Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 They're on CKAN because other people put them there. If you install via CKAN I don't give you installation support. The appropriate folder is your gamedata directory. Put the folder from extras (eg, NTRsUseLF or whatever) in gamedata. Done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blowfish Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I don't think the way the CKAN metadata is currently set up supports the LFO patch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garwel Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 A few people have reported it before, but I haven't really seen a fix. When I load my vessel, its nuclear engines (two Neptunes in this case) get extremely overheated, more than 60,000 K. I managed to fix it by editing the persistent file and setting IsActivated to false in their FissionReactor modules. Does anyone else experience the same issue? Can something be done about it? It's pretty annoying to have to manually edit the file nearly every time I switch to the vessel. One quick fix might be to disable the FissionReactor module when the scene is loaded or changed.

It's pretty annoying to have to manually edit the file nearly every time I switch to the vessel. One quick fix might be to disable the FissionReactor module when the scene is loaded or changed. This was fixed by NFE 0.9.5. I just loaded up a blank save in 1.4.5 to test with NFE 0.10.1 to see if there was a regression with the latest patch. Created a vessel with one Neptune, some radiators, a command pod and a battery Set reactor to on, set throttle to 2% (handleable by radiators, enough to run generator at full power), ramped up to operating temperature Teleported to orbit, timewarped a bit, watched thermal behaviour, no temperature anomalies when entering and exiting timewarp Tracking station, timewarped ~ 5days, switched back to ship Observed no thermal anomalies If you see something with NFE 0.10.0 and KA 0.5.0 installed on KSP 1.4.5, please let me know with some distinct reproduction steps.

garwel Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 I had it with NFE 0.10.1, KA 0.5.0 but I'm still playing KSP 1.4.3. Don't know if it can be related to the problem. Will save a log if I have this issue again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nertea Posted August 7, 2018 Author Share Posted August 7, 2018 Kerbal Atomics 0.5.1 KSP 1.4.5 Updated bundled B9PartSwitch to 2.3.3 Updated MM to 3.0.7 Updated DynamicBatteryStorage to 1.3.2 Updated CryoTanks to 1.0.1 -Changed omni-tank patch to run AFTER several other mods that also omni patch.
