Malfunction Custom Action + Mission Bug + movement tip and more

[OverCraft]

I have found 1 bug that need to be fixed soon. It has to be with the custom actions to read sensors like pressure, temperature, gravity, mistery goo etc.. all at once. Make a custom action to read that sensors its very helpfull, then store them on the experiments container, even read and store them at 1 action (its buggy with 2 actions or 1, it doesn't matter). The bug starts when you already have that experiment on the container and you fire the custom action, the sensors keep the old experiments instead of remove them for the new ones. So when you make the custom action again, it doesnt overwrite the new reads on the sensor and go on, so you finally need to make 1 by 1 by hand. It must overwrite an existing report or show an alert to tell you that you will overwrite data with that action. Otherwise its uselesss, you cannot remember if you already did that report on that zone, or spam the button, and finally you never trush on the custom action or you lost tons of science.

 

Second have to be with this mission for example:

 

You can go to the mun, get 3000 ore and come back to kerbin and never get the mission. When you are on the mun drilling and you finish, you have checked "acquire 2750 units + have 2750 units an stability". When you are on kervin orbit you have "have 2750 units + kerbin orbit an stability" cheked, when you land on kerbin you have "have 2750 units an stability" checked, but you never get the 4 options.

 

Other problem has to be with how labs work. You can get old reports with 0 science points and store them on a new lab, and it gives you the boost for that data, that maybe you already has in another laboratory or finished. It makes that at start of the game with 2 or 3 labs at the mun without even try the solar system and you unlock all the tech tree just skipping the time. That's a bug for me, you can investigate 1 report on any lab 1 time, not 1 per lab. About how many boost points you get to do that i belive its too high, but thats an oppinion, you have 1 too probably.

 

Another "bug" have to be with the EVA. You only can move yourself, even when you press SPACE in 2 axis. I understand that for a short flight in space its very usefull, but with big ships this usually ends with a very oblique angle difficult to move. I know you can "control" + "shift" to anywhere, but if you looking directly to the target sometimes its better. I understand you pretend this to keep simple to break in some directions for short distances, but when you move around something it has less sense. So I suggest to place the Z and C key or ZX to move yourself on the vertical axis, or if you press SPACE to locate yourself in the 3 axis oriented.

 

I hope you could work on this, the game its awesome and this kind of little things make it a bit pain to play, and you can fix it very fast.

I found the bug on the mission. If you save and load the game, the "acquire 2750 of fresh ore" get lost, even if you are still on the surface of the mun with the tanks full. So you have to jet them and repeat after load the game. Once you get in kerbin orbit without saving the mission its complete.
