A 100mm plate (BDARMOR = 100) could eat 6 torpedoes and not be damaged, leaving me with only NAS cannons to damage the plates. What are the factors that affect the damage towards armored plates? Hi under intense investigation we discovered some serious issues with the current armor and it's tie in to the bullet system. To which end armor is currently being overhauled and accordingly everything will need to be re balanced once we have the performance that was intended. Any results up till the fix is in are skewed and armor is terminally OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goduranus Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 (edited) Hi, I have a hopefully simple request for the Vessel Mover that I hopefully already found the right code for implementing. I noticed that vessels spawned by by Vessel Mover have the actiongroup Gear = False where as vessels spawned with the SPH have Gear = True. This is preventing the use of Gear actiongroup to make BD Armory Autopilot AI automatically do certain things during takeoff, like jettisoning JATO rockets or toggling radars on crafts spawned by the Vessel Mover. Where as these are possible with crafts spawned on the runway or SPH. So I would like to request that spawned vessels are set to Gear = True. I did some research and looked at SirDiazo's AutoAction mod, and may have come up the code to do this. In VesselSpawn.cs, line 657, add this? v.ActionGroups.SetGroup(KSPActionGroup.Gear, true); Maybe line 657 isn't the right place? as I think the actiongroup should be set before parts on the vessel are loaded in, to prevent premature activation. But I wasn't able to understand VesselSpawn.cs enough to suggest where else to put it. I also created an Issue https://github.com/PapaJoesSoup/VesselMover/issues/37, but since the last post was a month ago I made a forum post just in case it's rarely visited.

Guest Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Adding to the previous post I would also hope that the vessels start with brakes on. Having vessels sliding around is not exactly pleasant, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although as you can't place more than one craft at one time, even before the craft can move you have to physically place it on the ground, and locking brakes activating engines, setting teams etc is all part of the AI setup, it can all be done before you even place the craft on the ground. I could understand if on the other hand VM dropped the aircraft wherever it wanted, with no input from the user , but it doesn't. You choose where to place it, the angle of placement, even how it's finally placed on the ground , is all on you Setting up large combat and weapon test scenarios is something I do a lot ( as do most of the team) , and of all the annoyances setting the brakes is fairly minor. As Doc Davinci mentioned Quickbrake takes care of it nicely, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
