[1.9.X]Aircraft Carrier Accessories

[bvsveera]

Love this mod! It's made my dream of trapping and launching planes from a boat come true. Just one question. I've been having a bug where if I land a plane, activate the brakes and then go into physical timewarp, the plane tends to shake itself to death. Starting from 2x or 3x warp, the shaking is noticeable; once it reaches 4x, parts start exploding. Seems to happen whether or not the plane is connected to any tie down points.

 

Is there any way to deal with this issue? Otherwise, I was thinking of using the Hangar mod to store the planes as I'd like to use physical timewarp when driving the ship.

Very interesting mod, i've just downloaded it but the pre-made enterprise doesn't show up in the SPH ship list

What's with the tie down not showing wires with the fixed point? No matter where I place the tie downs and points, whether they're extremely close or a good distance between them, no green or pink lines show. I'm stopped right in between the tie downs, yet nothing shows. 

Try adjust the range and clear the space in between, some part has bigger collision than the visual model.

Yes, please use hanger, there is no way to help this issue unless we totally remove gravity.

I built a craft and tried to launch it from a catapult and it just disintegrated immediately. The same thing also happened while landing. Any advice?

Did you use KSS Nimitz? It has a problem with invisible colliders since 1.4 so it destroys everything that touches it.

[Redacted]

Please add a small county with WMD to invade to justify the $ required to build a carrier.

Yeah, I used Eskandere's stuff. That explains a lot hehe

Liaoning is absolutely safe to land|takeoff, Enterprise is mostly safe. "Mostly" means nothing explodes during takeoff or landing but there are some Keter-class anomalies on the deck if a plane gets trapped inside the game crashes. Kerbals just safely fall through the deck. LBPCVS Single part hull from SMmarine also has invisible colliders that destroy everything that moves faster than 10m/s.

KSP has a major problem on the multi mesh collider now, old MOD might suffer from it since the bug was not there back then.

Looks like a Unity problem. That can be fixed only by Unity update (and it will break a bunch of other mods). I tried to explore how deep is the rabbit hole and found that all large hull parts from SMmarine have their colliders messed up now.

Not a Unity problem, same part works perfectly in previous version KSP will be messed up in new version. It is not only happened in 1.8 through, Enterprise has been updated a while ago.

Nimitz got it's destructive colliders after updating to Unity 5. Didn't try to land on aircraft carriers in 1.8 yet, can't land on a carrier with no landing gear (KF and KSPWheel haven't been updated yet)... actually I can but it will be destructive regardless of destructive colliders.

Tested some aircraft carriers in 1.8.1 and I have good news. Nimitz made by @Eskandare and LBPCVS carrier by @SpannerMonkey(smce) do not have destructive colliders anymore and now they are absolutely safe to land or takeoff. Some other hulls from SMmarine that used to have collider issues work well in 1.8.1 
Enterprise had invisible walls near aircraft lifts (just simple colliders not these ghostlike you can pass through) now they are gone. Invisible holes in the deck still remain but getting trapped doesn't crash the game anymore. Couldn't check Liaoning because when I approach the carrier jumps into the air (sometimes up to one thousand meters) and hits my aircraft if I'm not fast enough to pull up. I think, I shouldn't place ships of this size on the runway.

THis is a good news. 

Could you take a screenshoot to indicate where the hole is?

Actually they aren't holes just the deck ends not where it ends. Not as dangerous as holes near airplane lifts that used to trap planes in 1.7

[CardboardGuy]

can you use the Optical landing system and Long-Range Lineup System for landing on the runway? asking for a friend.

Does anyone else have this issue I'm having? Trying to reload throws a nullref at ReloadableRail.PartSnapshot()

Another seemingly random question - when successfully reloaded, does staging completely break? As in the staging bar disappears and you cannot trigger any staging actions.

Try this fix. Download the .dll and replace the original .dll with this one.

I want to know if, with the new dll, you can reload the rail successfully, any other related errors occur, and any effects it might have on staging.

Rearmed and refueled successfully... staging..... never cared about it but yes, it broke.

Got some error messages while reloading

I think it's needed to do this. But something has gone wrong.

Do the lifts of the carriers work? If yes, they do not work for me

Hello,

I have been having a problem with the catapults where they tug the plane all they way into the ship resulting in the destruction of the cockpit and most of the plane. Is there any fix?
