totm nov 2017 [1.3.0] Community Database of Module Manager Patches for Stock KSP

[maculator]

So all patches in one place seems to be a good idea. Here is stuff from my thread and  my collection:

  Reveal hidden contents

1. Set of science experminents at the start node of the techtree:

@PART[*]:HAS[#category[Science],!MODULE[ModuleScienceLab],!MODULE[ModuleResourceScanner],!MODULE[ModuleOrbitalSurveyor],!MODULE[ModuleDataTransmitter]]:FINAL
    {
        %TechRequired = start
    } 

2. Empty monoprop tanks of commandpods (from @Otis)

@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[ModuleCommand],@RESOURCE[MonoPropellant]]
{
    @RESOURCE[MonoPropellant]
    
    {      
    %amount = 0      
    }
} 

3. Decoupler for heatshields (obsolete), add to stock description

//Add decouplers to heatshields

	@PART[HeatShield*]:FINAL
	{
	
		sound_vent_large = decouple
		fx_gasBurst_white = 0.0, 0.0650517, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, decouplefx_gasBurst_white = 0.0, 0.0650517, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, decouple
		
		@description ^= :$:. Equiped with integrated decoupler and ultra cool "woosh"-effect! They'll know what hit 'em.:
	
		MODULE
		{
			name = ModuleDecouple
			ejectionForce = 40
			isOmniDecoupler = true
		}
	}

 

4. Mechjeb for all pods

//Unlock MechJeb for all command-parts at start:

	@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[ModuleCommand]]:NEEDS[MechJeb2]:FINAL
	{		
		%MODULE[MechJebCore]
		{
			MechJebLocalSettings[*]
			{
				%unlockTechs = start
			}
		}
	}

5. Enhanced generator of launchclamps

//More electric power for launchclamps:

	@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[LaunchClamp]]
	{
		@MODULE[ModuleGenerator]
		{
			@OUTPUT_RESOURCE[ElectricCharge]
			{
				@rate = 100 //1 is normal
			}
		}
	}

6. Resize part

	$PART[launchClamp1]
	{
		@name = [launchClamp2]
		@rescaleFactor = 2 //1 = 100%
	}

7.

7. Crewreports for sciencelab

		}
	}

8. Increase range of mysterygoo and small lab (from @Warzouz)

// Increase range of Lab
@PART[science_module]
{
    @MODULE[ModuleScienceExperiment]
    {
        @interactionRange = 3
    }
}

// Increase range of Goo
@PART[GooExperiment]
{
    @MODULE[ModuleScienceExperiment]
    {
        @interactionRange = 3
    }
}

9. 100% for transmitting experiments

@PART[*]:HAS[MODULE[ModuleScienceExperiment]]
{
	@MODULE[ModuleScienceExperiment]
	{
		@xmitDataScalar = 1.0
	}
}

10. Give the stock ISRUs a balanced generator

Any of you MM guru's know of a way to shut off sun tracking in solar panels that track?  Used to have that with stock bug fix, but I don't know if it took special DLL to accomplish it or what...

Rather then delete, you might want to change the category to = none.  If you do, they won't appear in the VAB, but you can still load craft that use them...

Try this.  I don't have time to test it now, so I don't know that this property actually does that. Let me know.

Turned out to be way simpler (this didn't work)

What did work was

	}
}

So you got me started!!  Thanks!  Now to make stationary duplicates.

[BlackHat]

Nice! There was one tweak that would drive me crazy trying to find it each time I upgraded my system or lost my ksp folder, was the patch for switching the Crew report and EVA report.  (So you would not have to EVA each time you went to a new biome, you just do a crew report instead)

It worked under 1.0.5-1.1.3 I dont know if it works with 1.2 yet.

// This tweak is from Science Revisited Revisited by Capt Robau
// It switches the biome mask for EVA and crew reports so you don't have to keep sending Kerbals on EVA for each biome.

@EXPERIMENT_DEFINITION[*]:HAS[#id[crewReport]]
{
        @biomeMask = 23
}
 
@EXPERIMENT_DEFINITION[*]:HAS[#id[evaReport]]
{
        @biomeMask = 7
}

Interesting, I didn't even see sunTracking as a property.  It must be inherited.

EDIT: I just looked again, there is no public boolean named sunTracking in any of the three classes that make up ModuleDeployableSolarPanel.  Are you absolutely sure that works? There are other things we can try though.  I see a TrackingMode in ModuleDeployablePart, but it isn't boolean.  There is a boolean named isTracking.

Yep, it's in the wiki and stated as "believed to control panels pointing at he sun" or some such.  I found it by googling ModuleDeployableSolarPanel.

That is really strange.  It definitely isn't in 1.2, I'm looking at the object browser.  Are you running an earlier version?

EDIT: Ok, I went back and that property does exist in earlier versions, but not the current release.  I suspect it was moved and is now isTracking in ModuleDeployablePart (which does not exist in previous version), I'll need to test that to confirm.  There is also an enum which suggests it was renamed because they added the ability to track other sources.  The enum name is TrackingMode and contains the values SUN, HOME, CURRENT, and VESSEL.

Ok, I've confirmed.  isTracking does work in 1.2.  I've added the patch to the OP.

v1.2.1856 and it works.  I don't know what "the object browser" is (Although I'd love to know) but sunTracking = false works.  

Meanwhile, that TrackingMode looks intriguing....

Anybody know a patch to use all six seats in the MPL. I know I can simply change CrewCapacity = 2 to CrewCapacity = 6 but that won't give me an IVA or portraits

The object browser is a part of visual studio.  It allows me to see all the public members in a class.  After that, it does also tell you what data type it is but you just have to guess and experiment to figure out what a particular member might do.  I have no idea why using sunTracking would work.  It certainly does not exist anymore in 1.2, at least not as a public member, and I don't think module manager would be able to modify a private one.

There is also documentation here which shows the public members now.

https://kerbalspaceprogram.com/api/index.html

However it isn't incredibly well documented, so there is still going to be a lot of educated guessing.

Ah this is going to help me try to dope out the changes to the flightcamera - 1.2 broke the docking camera in my KOAS...  I'm new to VS so thanks.

This model is guaranteed to spontaneously combust less than previous models, and also has the equipment necessary to clean out and restore functionality to inoperable experiments.

In 1.0.5 that worked great but I've tried it in 1.2pre with no luck.
Have not tried in in the full 1.2 release though.

It works in 1.2 (tested right now) if you edit "largeCrewedLab.cfg" and add that seats directly. I have still unmoded version, so I can't test it with MM.

Great thread idea! I ended up making an intermediate between the small landing gear and the medium, as the size difference between the two bothered me, as I am quite a plane guy.

// Author: Vegetal
// Adds an intermediate landing gear between small and medium.

    @cost = 650
    @description = Smaller version of LY-35 landing gear, not too big, not too small.

Now, does anyone know how I can make all the LF and LFO tanks have jettisoning capability?
