done

Just to clarify, does this patch also remedy the problem of the large dish lacking an extend/retract command?

If you don't mind just what one are you calling the large dish ? 

[Mecripp]

Found it will check it out and @linuxgurugamer on your module you have ProgressFxModules = 1 shouldn't that be ProgressFxModules = 0 ? has there the first module in writing a MM the first is 0 the 2nd is 1 and so on or are you just wanting them to stay the same ?

EDIT- forget that brain fart I see it now DeployFxModules = 0   long day

I need to get back to the mod which changes the antenna type, it still has issues

[Cazrl]

Is there a way to get the fuel tanks working with realfuels? or is it supposed to?

Thanks.

Probably, but I don't use RF, you should ask for help in that thread on how to write a patch for it.

If you do, feel free to send it to me.  Even though I don't use it, I'd be happy to include the patch

The largest dish this mod has,. the Gargantuan one.

[leatherneck6017]

Totally forgot about this mod. I used it all the time in 1.3. Good stuff.

[tempes156]

It's a really fun mod to have. I'm sure linuxgamer will get it updated at some point, not like he isn't managing 1200 other mods now.

[leatherneck6017]

@linuxgurugamer Any idea why Octosat is affected by atmosphere while enclosed inside a fairing? It happens with stock and KW fairings. I'm not using any physics mods. See images of my rocket:

Try the same vessel with some stock parts and see what happens

@linuxgurugamer Used the same vessel with these parts:

I can not reproduce what happens with OctoSat parts.

[Rafael acevedo]

had the same issue (heating inside firing) with stock parts, I don't think is an issue of this mod

[linuxgurugamer]

new release, 0.1.10:

• Really fixed the Tweakscale config
• Replaced the Firespitter with InterstellarFuelSwitch, works better
• Removed the SelectableDataTransmitter
• Added new part to give a relay antenna (clone of existing)
• Moved all MM files into a MM directory
• Added support for PatchManager
• Tweakscale config moved into Patchmanager
• New config for stock texture switching added, to be used only if IFS is not installed, thanks to github user @Hexicube for the stock texture configs.  This is NOT recommended for use, however
• Updated Part Requests description for science contracts to properly say which part is needed
• Adjusted antenna ranges and power consumption

CKAN is being updated for the new dependencies

[Rohaq]

First of all, I love Octosat, it makes for some beautiful satellites!

I'm having an odd issue with the gargantuan dish though; when activated, the opening/closing animation just keeps repeating. It still seems to be working, at least.

I've got a bunch of other mods installed, and I may be able to test this with them removed later, but was just interested to know if anyone had seen the same problem.

I had a feeling that this would happen at some point. Kudos for trying to make it work. 

Fixing up a new installation but IFS throws a conflict with ConfigurableContainers at CKAN. Any chance for a firespitter one or could you at least point me in the right direction?

Turned out that the relay antenna could also receive, so that mod wasn't needed.

Post a link to a log file, and I'll take a look. 

I'll have to take a look, not sure if there is a solution.

No chance for firespitter, sorry, although you could try to use it. IFS is a superset of FS, so maybe just replacing the module names would suffice

Edit:  I just tried, and I was able to install both ConfigurableContainers and IFS using CKAN, so what's your issue?  This was on a 1.4 game.

Strange... CKAN doesn't let me install either (octo or IFS). Both CKAN & KSP at latest versions. I'll try a manual install and report back.

Do you have IFS installed?

First, it isn’t repeating, it is opening and then closing.

second, I haven’t seen that before, Imwould need to see a log file

I do, is that likely to be the cause, or is it a prerequisite?

I'll see if I can muster together some logs.

It's a dependency.  In other words, you need it installed.

Gotcha, just checking it wasn't a known conflict  

[Phraxas]

Does this not work in 1.4.5?  My gargantuan dish is not picking up any signal, which sucks because it's perfect for my relays.
