ebigunso Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 If you're going to use RO, I reccomend copying the install elsewhere since Steam automatic update will mess with your install a LOT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't lose a lot of features if I downgrade? WIth RO you only gain a lot of features that the standard game (RSS, RealFuels/engineUllage, limitedIgnitions and and and) cant give you! Much higher immersion into rockets and spaceflight. I also recommend using Realistic Progression 0 the developmental version (which is for 1.3.1), that makes it even more real and gives you contracts and avionics and stuff (https://github.com/KSP-RO/RP-0/tree/Developmental green button: "clone or download"). If you never played Realism Overhaul it can be it little bit overwhelming, it has a high learning curve, but: RO/RP0 are the BEST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSP has a steep learning curve, adding RO + RP0 or RP1 makes that curve go vertical, like a sounding rocket but it’s well worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoboRay Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 If you have completely mastered stock KSP, the learning curve for RSS/RO/RP-0 is similar to the learning curve that got you from Day 1 of stock KSP to where you are now. It's really a whole new game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebigunso Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Now that I'm used to RO, I can't get myself to go back to stock, since it's too easy XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerthNerd Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 I'm getting a crash on loading screen, while trying to Install RO and the recommended mods. I went mod by mod, and the problem seems to arise when I try to load RO and TestFlight together. The setting works fine with only one of them, but not both. Using TestFlightCore-v1.8.0.1 and RealismOverhaul-v12.1.0 as linked in the OP. I also tried the respective master versions that are linked in the RP-0 1.3.1 spreadsheet. I uploaded a crash folder under that link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/r4hbjcnpe3vdo63/2018-09-18_220936.zip?dl=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitspace Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Hi everyone! Now that all the essential mods, including RSS seem to be updated, what are the plans, regarding Realism overhaul? Looking forward and really can not play without it Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iguas Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Hey, how do you guys roll back to 1.3.1 ? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how to do it if you got KSP from the Squad store. But in Steam you look under Betas and they offer many KSP versions: 1.0.5, 1.1.3, 1.2.2, 1.3.1, and all from 1.4.1 to 1.4.4. So you can select 1.3.1, let Steam download, then copy out of the Steam install directory (usually "<Steam root>/SteamApps/common/Kerbal Space Program/") to one you maintain (I use "C:/Prog/KSP/v1.3.1" for a pristine copy and "C:/Prog/KSP/v1.3.1+mods/" for the modded install where I ran KSP 1.3.1).

AVaughan Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 6 hours ago, DanielBR401 said: CKAN doesn't work with this anymore? At a guess because you are trying to install into a 1.4.x version of KSP. RO and some of its dependencies haven't released 1.4 compatible versions yet, so there are no 1.4 compatible versions for ckan to install. In the meantime you should be able to install Ro in KSP 1.3.1. If you use Steam instructions on how to get a copy of 1.3.1 are a couple of posts up.

If you use GOG, then write support and have them make the install files available to you. It might take a couple of days before they reply, but in my experience, they upload it to an FTP-server pretty soon. If enough of us requests older versions of KSP, they might end up having a better backlog of versions available on their homepage or the GOG Galaxy application.

Pehvbot Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I wanted to play career in RSS but didn't want to go full Realism (I like Kerbal parts and don't want to mess with fuel types, ullage, restarts, etc. I also wanted to use 1.4.x). I installed the ROMini.cfg patch to rescale and real-size the Kerbal parts. It seems to work well, mostly. Some of the Making History parts are glitchy but nothing you can't work around. The thing I was wondering is this: Does anyone know if there's an in game reason to have fuel tanks nearly double their fuel-to-mass ratio compared to similar real world tanks? A script modified LT-45 engine for example is a very close analog for an early Merlin 1 (very similar thrust and ISP), but it needs half the fuel mass to get the same burn time, thus giving it a huge boost in dV. It means you can get away with much lighter (and shorter!) rockets. Before I start messing around with the cfg file to get more realistic(ish) numbers I figured I would ask in case I'm missing some important point or my math is just crap and I'm wrong about the fuel/mass thing.

Tyko Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 The fuel/mass ratios were adjusted along with a bunch of other things to adapt to the 1/10th sized solar system. If you used RL ratios it would be too easy. There's a mod called SMURFF that tweaks them for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quickspin Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 KSP 1.3.1/RO 12.1.0/all required dependencies specified in the OP I'm unable to get RCS to work. I'm mounting thrusters directly on the fuel tank and have configured the fuel to match the thruster requirements. I've tried many combinations of thrusters and RCS tanks, but the engineering report in the VAB always indicates "consumers not receiving mono-propellant". If I uninstall RO/Real Fuels/Real Plume, RCS seems to work fine. Thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafidge9898 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 (edited) I'd like to report a bug. I'm not sure if it's RO doing this so sorry if this is the wrong thread. Basically, patches of the ground start floating up as I approach the ground. I haven't noticed it when I'm ascending, but definitely when I'm descending. You can also crash into these ground patches, and I've observed them to be as high as 40km in altitude. They're not just stationary, either. You can see them moving upwards as you get closer. Logs: https://www.dropbox.com/s/i0vleh0p582wgqs/output_log.txt?dl=0 Pics: https://imgur.com/a/OcI3tEB It's actually kind of funny sometimes, until I end up crashing into one EDIT: I know the screenshots only show the moon, but it happens on Earth too. EDIT2: Narrowed it down to scatterer. Edited September 23, 2018 by dafidge9898 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't see something like that, then open settings and check you have advanced tweakables turned on. Sorry for the late reply, but thank you. Thats going to really help, when I come to think about it I was also missing the fuel priority so that make sense. I simply hadn't really needed it yet however as default generally works out. tbh that should be on by defualt as it's super handy.
