Kerbal Gamer Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 (edited) Hello. I've been playing around in KSP 1.4.2 with the long tracks and they seem to have a mind of their own. When I launch the vehicle, they do a quick burst of power pushing it along until it runs out of EC, and if I add infinite EC it keeps going. Is there a fix? Thanks. Edit: It seems to be happening with most of the wheels, stock and modded. Edited May 5, 2018 by Kerbal Gamer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then your problem is not with KerbalFoundries or KSPWheel, but rather a problem with your game configuration or PC settings. Two things to check. First, do you have any joysticks/gamepads/etc installed? Second, what are your keybindings for 'rover throttle' set to? Likely the problem is with one of those settings.

Jimbodiah Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 1.4.2 is completely borked for wheels, you really need 1.4.3, if that even fixed the issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerbal Gamer Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Thank you, I am using a joystick, so I will switch to 1.4.3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Dragon Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 So First thanx for making tracks a thing again. I'm having an issue with vehicles I make using tracks though. Whenever I launch them (load from SPH into runway) they start facing vertical and role over onto there back. I cheated to play some and made a kickstand (retractable landing leg) to force them to role onto there tracks. This is not a good way to be playing though. 1. Is anyone else having this issue? 2. How can I correct this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does not sound normal... could you provide some screenshots showing the issue? One of the craft in the SPH, and another right after you launch it? The craft should spawn onto the runway in the same orientation as it was in the editor -- nothing in KF should change that behavior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrious Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 (edited) Are the issues of the wheels being "skittish" and the suspension being non-functional already known? For the former, the wheels jitter around alot (wheel stress goes bonkers) and for the latter it doesn't matter what accelerations the vehicle is under the suspension will not move. I am running 1.4.3 so I'm not sure if that is part of the issue. Edit: Cut the number of active wheels down to a significantly smaller number (I like clustering the KF Medium wheel for superheavy rovers) seems to have eased off the worst of the jitteryness and gotten the suspension to respond to loads, but its still acting oddly. Edit 2: Seems the jitteryness and other whatnot at least partially stemmed from how I was attaching the wheels to the main body of the rover (Through girders segments and struts). I'm still trying to figure it out. Edited May 28, 2018 by Cyrious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For best results, attach the wheels directly to one of the heaviest parts on the vehicle. Also, activating auto-struts can help if the wheels are not attached directly to the chassis (e.g. as in your 'through girders' setup). (it is this same error in the Unity Joints that has resulted in stock adopting AutoStruts in the first place). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbodiah Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 The repulsors are awesome on landers Soft touch with them on, then switch them off to bring the lander to touch the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Minmus Derp Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 REPULSORS ARE AWESOME!!!!!! Try flying from the KSC to the Old Airfield using Only Repulsors. That would be kooleio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbodiah Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Pretty fast, way faster than with any landing legs as they do not explode as there is no direct contact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtualgenius Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Hi I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this I built a rover using the kerbal foundries small wheel and tried to use the Mechjeb rover autopilot but it wigs out when trying to control them, stock wheels work perfectly unfortunately as I prefer the Modded wheels. i have left a post over on The MJ thread as well Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LexTRM Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 When I'm using it, I can't move and when I right click, nothing happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKurgan Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 (edited) @Virtualgenius Could you describe "wigs out " a little more? Do you mean they turn to their full limit and back really fast? If that's the case, turn the steering response all the way down to 0.05 and try it again. Edited June 10, 2018 by TheKurgan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
