I don't recognise them but i do need some kind of size 2 structural element like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoverDude Posted January 12, 2017 Author Share Posted January 12, 2017 Ok - doing some catch-up as I am at a software conference for the rest of the week. @LatiMacciato - log a ticket if the drill particle effect is messed up and I will look at it. @Wyzard- I am ok if people want to turn KSP into 'Kerbal Metal and Fuel Refinery Simulator' @voicey99 - Tethering simply kills velocity and angular momentum of a vessel's parts. Since joints and such are kraken bait @Amnesy - I thought there was a setting on KAS pipes that blocked fuel flow or enabled it.. check that maybe? @toric5- that's probably a CRP question which would involve digging through configs to see if anything uses atmospheric bands. MKS does not use any atmospheric resources. @dboi88 - log an issue and the use case for warehouse distributors that can't be solved with current mechanics and I will consider it. The big thing was to simplify logistics and have it work with intelligent defaults. @fenderzilla - if you are having production issues, I would say it is worth posting in the EL thread @Caithloki - inflatable tanks are a custom code module I wrote. @DStaal - It was a call between doing push/pull settings vs having it automagically push/pull based on capacity. I chose the latter because it makes for some clean menus, then added in local logistics so folks can handle the one-off cases Longer term I have a new system planned that will completely revolutionize all of this, but there's a lot of code to do on that one. And for all of you folks who have been answering questions, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, after playing around with some of the config files (and I'm sure @RoverDude can verify this), it is the module that determines if that structure will scavenge. The MKS modules are defined as ModuleResourceConverter_USI, which means they know to send out Kerbals to scavenge the needed goods. The stock ISRU module for converting ore to LFO (which is what I'm using) is just the stock ModuleResourceConverter...it doesn't know about scavenging and just sits there doing nothing although there's ore in the nearby resource tower. Changing that converter module to ModuleResourceConverter_USI gives it the ability to put in a scavenge order and bring in ore to the attached ISM.

Stratickus Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Anyone know where the Orca Command Pod .cfg file is located? I assumed it was an MKS part, but couldn't find it. Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also tried recreating the issue in sandbox mode but if I just put a base on the launchpad everythign works as expected... maybe my kerbals on Iota (GPP mun of kerbin) just like the recycled supplies so much they don't wanna try new ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just adding new capabilities but have to noodle through a few of the issues, and it is a back burner to Ground Construction integration.

Wyzard Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Is there a way to determine in advance how many MaterialKits I'll get for disassembling a particular part? I'm sending a lander to the Mun to deliver some Ranger parts for a base, and it'd be useful to know how much I'll get for disassembling the lander afterward — both to make sure I have enough MaterialKits storage, and to know how close it'll get me to inflating a habitation or agriculture module.

jd284 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 You always get 50% of the dry mass in MaterialKits, so 500 MaterialKits per ton of dry mass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LatiMacciato Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 (edited) Does MKS intend to produce/generate/find resource lodes on Kerbin too with the stock survey scanner? (I menaged to do that.) If no, then I'll file an issue on GH, otherwise I keep enjoying it.

If you think it's cheaty, a) you're right, b) don't use it for real, just for testing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WuphonsReach Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Do the inline Nom-O-Matic 25k parts in USI-LS improve their production if you stick an experienced Botanist in them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No the USI-LS parts don't have specialist bonuses. Looks like the module they use allows it (same as MKS convertors) So i'd be up to @RoverDude to confirm if this was a design intention or an oversight.

dboi88 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Further addition: Looks like the botany skill is a part of MKS not, USITools so probably a design constraint otherwise someone with USI-LS on it's own wouldn't have any botany skills to use.

JadeOfMaar Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Howdy. I currently only install Karbonite and I'm wondering if a condition needs to be met to allow the ventral ocean harvester part to operate at full (or at least higher) efficiency for karbonite. It tends to only ever draw 1% of the rated karbonite value for an ocean. In Galileo's Planet Pack, the oceans are intended to be karbonated™ somewhat like real oceans are salinated to make this particular part useful. Is it nerfed due to reality-based constraints on an water filter? Am I doing it right by installing several of these to get a decent input rate?
