[1.12] KSP-RO - Realism Overhaul [16 May 2022]

etheoma · October 15, 2018

It's kind of kinda scary that you can break a hole file by missing a single | "{" or "}" take your time while editing files... or use note pad++ or something similar and it will be instantly obvious is what I am learning. Also don't do it drunk... I suppose that is good advice for a lot of things...

True... It's also a good practice to back up the file you are editing, so you don't do permanent damage to a file you worked hard on.

Github is a free way to keep track of the changes you've made and makes it easy to roll back or see where you might have made a mistake. You have to be willing to let it be public for the free version though. I don't know about notepad ++, but Visual Studio Code has integrated git support. It makes it super easy to manage your edited files.

The paradox is:

RO devs say"we wait for official FAR"

FAR thread says "perhaps there will never come an 'official' FAR from Ferram" (so it's a community project now) ...

So ... Ferram doesn't say anything, so who knows.

It doesn't need to be official from ferram, but it needs to be it's own official thread with it's own github release and ckan support. I'm not basing a RO release on some random persons dll compile posted in the mess of the main thread.

I have the problem that the runway is not long enough as the Skylon is suppose to have a 5km runway

Use Space Shuttle runway from Real KSC.

I keep asking for a edit for the RO file for B9, even gave the code for the edit, explained that it was editing the engine to be realistic, but nothing was done.

Did you create a PR with proposed changes? Because I did and it was merged: https://github.com/KSP-RO/RealismOverhaul/pull/1884 - proper ISP for SABRE engines, minimum thrust and mass correction.

Kitspace · October 23, 2018

Hi everyone!

I am having a weird effect, where the Kerbal Engineer, the readout in the vanilla toolbar, the Mechjeb vessel info, and its stage stats, give out three different mass values, for the exact same vessel.

I thought this was an old bug, fixed some time ago already. It is not related, to whether the parts are crewed or not though, so not sure, if that is it.

Any ideas why that could be happening?

Thank you!

hypervelocity · October 23, 2018

hey guys, hope everyone is great today!

quick question here: one of my vessels is now stranded in space without control as the only command module it has is an uncrewed MK1 cockpit. Is there a way to remove the crew requirement in order to operate the vessel remotely?

I have tried the following but it didn't work, so I am wondering if either the code I added is wrong, or it simply does not apply to launched vessels.

I edited RO_Squad_Spaceplanes.cfg for the following part...

// Resized parts.
// because why not, and 1.25m is too narrow a diameter for crewed spaceplanes
+PART[Mark1Cockpit]:FOR[RealismOverhaul]
{
	@name = RO-Mk1Cockpit

... and added the following bit of code:

@MODULE[ModuleCommand]
	{
		@minimumCrew = 0
		RESOURCE
		{
			name = ElectricCharge
			rate = 1.895
		}
	}

Thanks in advance!

RoboRay · October 23, 2018

I think editing the RO config would only affect the parts in the VAB, and therefore newly created craft. Existing craft already in flight would not be changed.

hypervelocity · October 23, 2018

thanks @RoboRay!!! any clue on how to edit a craft already in flight?

RoboRay · October 23, 2018

I suggest making a new Quicksave file and editing that one. Don't ever play around with your Persistence save file. If you break the Quicksave, KSP will refuse to load it... if you break the Persistence file, KSP will refuse to load your game at all.

You should be able to find your in-flight craft by its name in the Quicksave. Do the same edit to the cockpit listed in that section as you tried on the RO config.

sam_milne · October 23, 2018

does anybody know where I could download RO configs for ksp version 1.22 for the space x launch vehicles mod by Kartoffelkuchen

ColKlonk2 · October 23, 2018

Only reference (so far) to SpaceX parts I could find is the Merlin1_Config.cfg from RO Version 11.0.5.1

Heya quick question, is there an easy way to remove or hide all the non RO parts?

Thanks!

Hi, I'm having the same problem! I noted this when on Mechjeb the weight was 150 t and on the vanilla toolbar was 139t.

Awesome Thanks! That seems to filter out most non RO parts!

You can create a working Skylon pretty much from Procedural mods like I did. Other than that I can suggest installing B9 Aerospace which adds many spaceplane cockpits and fuselages.

I've been looking at this, but my procedural tanks end up overheating above 15,000 meters. Their maximum skin temperature is about 750°K, and they are already at about 600° at the runway, so it doesn't take a lot for them to blow up

I've forgotten to mention. I edited RO config for Procedural Tanks and created a new variant: cryobaloon shielded tank. With regular shielded tanks plane was about 25 t too heavy, now she is 50 t dry and 350 t wet.

I don't remember what is max temp for B9 tanks you need to check it on your own.

Hi, I'm having the same problem! I noted this when on Mechjeb the weight was 150 t and on the vanilla toolbar was 139t.

I found the origin of the bug: every part attached to a manned capsule will be given a weight (from MJ or Kerbal Engineering Redux) of: realWeight + 100 * n_of_passengers.

If you empty the capsule the weight count return normal. I think there is some logic that add 100kg to the weight of the capsule per each passenger but that logic by error is applied to every single part attached to the capsule (I tried with a thermometer or a parachute).

I edited RO_Squad_Spaceplanes.cfg for the following part...

@hypervelocity are editing the wrong thing; all that will do is make changes to FUTURE parts. Once you launch a vehicle it becomes hard-coded. You need to edit your VESSEL{} in the game's persistent.sfs .

thank you @TranceaddicT & @RoboRay!!! will try it out!

EDIT: ok, this is rather strange. I edited the save file's VESSEL{} entry but it didn't work

I first tried the following (my addition is the @MODULE[ModuleCommand] entry at the bottom):

PART
			{
				name = RO-Mk1CockpitInline
				cid = 4292551006
				uid = 520936581
				mid = 4257879762
				launchID = 59
				parent = 5
				position = 0,3.9504241943359375,0
				rotation = -0.707106352,0,-0.707107186,0
				mirror = 1,1,1
				symMethod = Radial
				istg = -1
				resPri = 0
				dstg = 4
				sqor = -1
				sepI = 0
				sidx = -1
				attm = 0
				srfN = , -1
				attN = top, 5
				attN = bottom, -1
				mass = 2.34067154
				shielded = False
				temp = 223.06565801213159
				tempExt = 222.86479049072139
				tempExtUnexp = 4
				expt = 0.5
				state = 0
				attached = True
				autostrutMode = Off
				rigidAttachment = False
				flag = Squad/Flags/redsacqua
				rTrf = RO-Mk1CockpitInline
				modCost = 9252.07813
				EVENTS
				{
				}
				ACTIONS
				{
				}
				PARTDATA
				{
				}
				MODULE
				{
					name = ModuleCommand
					isEnabled = True
					hibernation = False
					hibernateOnWarp = False
					stagingEnabled = True
					EVENTS
					{
					}
					ACTIONS
					{
						HibernateToggle
						{
							actionGroup = None
							active = False
						}
					}
					UPGRADESAPPLIED
					{
					}
				}
				@MODULE[ModuleCommand]
					{
						@minimumCrew = 0
						RESOURCE
						{
							name = ElectricCharge
							rate = 1.895
						}
					}

And then, as it did not work, tried just simply adding "minimumCrew = 0" under MODULE {name=ModuleCommand} and left it as follows:

MODULE
				{
					name = ModuleCommand
					minimumCrew = 0
					isEnabled = True
					hibernation = False
					hibernateOnWarp = False
					stagingEnabled = True
					EVENTS
					{
					}
					ACTIONS
					{
						HibernateToggle
						{
							actionGroup = None
							active = False
						}
					}
					UPGRADESAPPLIED
					{
					}
				}

None of these updates worked - any ideas?

It might be easier to spawn a FASA launch tower with a kerbal in it, EVA the kerbal, use the cheat menu to rendezvous the kerbal with the craft in orbit, and get in and drive.

In any case, the code you need to enter is a different format that the Module Manager code you're using. Don't include Module Manager things like the @ sign. Instead of adding a new Module Command, you should just be editing the Module Command block that's already there. I would look at an unmanned craft in the save with a working probe pod and copy from that.

thanks @RoboRay!!! your second comment was on point, I just added "minimumCrew = 0" and it worked! thanks a ton!!!!

it worked!

I see there are configs for KK's SpaceX pack included in RO, but they don't seem to do anything to the parts in-game? Do I have to move those configs somewhere else for it to work?

Yes there are configs, if you take a look at for example the "RO_KK_Falcon_Tanks.cfg" in the RO suggested mods folder KK Launchers, youll see that only the LaunchersPack parts are supported. Use the 1.3.0 version 4.1 of the launchers pack. For the new parts, the F9Demo parts, there are no configs.
