Say @theonegalen, are you planning on ever doing a high-tech Kn-2, or just the retro spin-off like the warbird Mk-1?

I'm rebuilding my mod ecosystem for pods/cockpits, and rediscovered/fixed a somewhat tricked-out Kn-2 with modern ASET bits circa 2015 or so (video here) if you or other Kn-2 fans want to keep tabs on that:

Seems like I've reached an age with this game (and personal age) where I'm following the same paths of digging up old pods and configurations every couple years. Not sure if it's funny or sad...

 

 

I certainly intend to do a updated glass cockpit version of the Kn-2. I actually have a key set of images for the modernized version.

I really like your cab. I adore willow. The Mk2 Inline Cockpit and Mk1 Capsule are very good.
I found your mod when I was looking for a booth for the Mk1 command module. But it does not work on the KSP 161, since the MK1 capsule was changed to the MK1 command pod.
Do you have the opportunity to solve the problem?
When I play a full IVA, there is no EVA exit button (Mk2 and Mk1 capsule). As in the cockpit of the ALCOR (alexustas) there is an exit to EVA.
Thanks for making great cockpits.

Sorry for my English.

Next version will work with 1.6.1 and use mostly MAS. It won't be out before the end of the semester, though.

Thanks, will be fixed in final v0.3.

@марат-ru, I just thought of something.

Extract this file in your GameData folder, and let it overwrite. This will put the Mk1 capsule IVA into the Mk1_v2. I make no promises of it being pretty, but it should function.

These look awesome. I don't know if it's just a quirk of the screenshots, though, but the IVA camera is so low that it's almost useless. And that's something I notice with the sweeping majority of KSP IVAs.

Low? As in located in the lower portion of the cockpit panels? I'm assuming you know you can pan your view around when you're in IVA?

Assuming that's not a silly question, I can't remember if the Hullcam(or something similar) mod provides a popup window you could drag anywhere you want on-screen...

This sounds to me like you might be using female Kerbals in IVA. Squad, in their infinite wisdom, decided to make male and female kerbals have different eye levels when in IVA view. To compensate for this, I have put seat position switches in all but the most basic of my IVAs. I don't think the Vintage Kerbonov or the SXT Bonny have them, but I believe the rest of mine should.

I have had absolutely no trouble flying with these cockpits. I use them all the time. Remember, you can also double click on most of the front windscreens to get a better view, as if your Kerbal had sat up to peer over the dashboard.

Nah, it has been an issue I've had with Kerbal IVAs since long before we ever got female kerbs. They've sat so low in the seat that all I can see is sky and gauges since we first got IVA in aircraft cockpits.

 

I'm well aware that you can doubleclick the windshield to glue their eyes to it, but that's not really a solution either, because then I can't see any instruments at all. When I fly an airplane I want my airspeed, altitude, and artificial horizon visible, but I also want to be able to see in front and sufficiently below the cockpit that I could see the runway while sitting on the runway(excluding taildraggers but they're rare in KSP).

 

If I were setting up the IVA of an aircraft cockpit I'd rig it such that the default view has the bottom third of the screen showing the dashboard, with the relevant instruments to actually flying the thing(Navball, radar altimeter, regular altimeter, airspeed indicator) positioned on said dashboard such that they'd be visible, while the upper 2/3rds of the screen is looking out the window such that you can actually taxi around, or use the cockpit on a rover, et-al. You'd be able to see ground, your relevant instruments, and the sky, all without touching any camera controls whatsoever beyond hitting the 'View' button to get into IVA in the first place.

 

 

Incidentally, this is also why I don't like driving cars in real life. I feel like I sit too low in them as well. It's not as bad as KSP IVAs, but even when driving an automobile I prefer to sit quite high up in the vehicle so I can see over the nose well, and cars generally don't let me do this very easy. Usually hit my head on the roof before I get a view I like. Part of why I love my old pickup so much, sit straight up in that thing can see for days.

Low as in 'I can't see a damn thing in front of the airplane, only above it'. And this isn't limited to just a specific mod, even the stock aircraft IVAs have done it for as long as we've had them. And it's annoying as hell, since I want to fly IVA and can't readily do so when the camera is so low inside the cockpit that all I can see is sky and instruments.

Oh! as in viewpoint "camera" -- I getcha now. Yes -- some cockpit ivas take up a LOT of the view. I don't wonder that this isn't true of many real-world aircraft, as well. The advantage there is that being in a 3-d space, we'd have a much better situational awareness than we do when plopped into a game-rendered version without peripheral vision and depth perception.

When flying usual missions and flights, I find myself toggling internal / external view quite often as a way of simulating better situational awareness, but spend most of my time in-IVA. For lining up approaches, I'll use the cockpit instruments, then zoom in to the window with the double click for the clearer view ahead, then hopping back to check for drift, etc. There's no one view I wind up happy with.

Can I suggest (if you don't already use them) Nano Gauges? They're pretty cool little instruments, and you can customize clusters of them really easily to appear in flight, orbit, launch, etc. (or custom settings for IVA only, or for use when zoomed out the front canopy view...)

I seem to be able to get a reasonable approximation of those things by the manipulation of the camera controls, but if you want it to be the default then I'm afraid you're out of luck because of the limitations of the game and configs. RPM does give a Kerbal eye offset option to move the camera in 3D space, but it doesn't provide a rotation option as well.

You are welcome to go digging into the configs to see if you can get the Kerbal eye offset settings to plop you where you want to be. I would be grateful for those kinds of contributions.

@theonegalen Here's a suggestion: add a config option (or a MM patch) to remove the screwy results without the pitot heater on and not coming on without connecting, for the KSP modders who aren't so in to super realism.

Thank you for the suggestion. When I start to convert everything over into MAS, I will see how much extra trouble it would be to do that.

@theonegalen

Love the mod. Got a question for you. I am trying to make a copy of your seat height raising prop. I am trying to get it to work for a certain IVA but no matter what I've tried it doesn't work. It doesn't change the seat height. It seemed straight forward from looking at the cfgs but it never works in game.

Here are the configs I tried, but with no luck. Any idea where I am going wrong. Thanks!

I thought it would repalce the seat prop currently in the IVA with the one that can have the height adjusted. Props show up in IVA but seat height isn't affected.

@theonegalen

Love the mod. Got a question for you. I am trying to make a copy of your seat height raising prop. I am trying to get it to work for a certain IVA but no matter what I've tried it doesn't work. It doesn't change the seat height. It seemed straight forward from looking at the cfgs but it never works in game.

Here are the configs I tried, but with no luck. Any idea where I am going wrong. Thanks!

PROP

  name = Warbird_2_PilotSeat

 	MODEL
	{
		model = Galen/WarbirdCockpits/Props/Seat/PilotSeat
		texture = Seat_Texture, Galen/WarbirdCockpits/Props/Seat/Seat_Texture
	}
	
	MODULE
	{
		name = JSIVariableAnimator
		refreshRate = 1
		
		VARIABLESET
		{
			variableName = PERSISTENT_WARBIRD_PILOTSEAT_POSITION
			scale = 0,1
			controlledTransform = seatPilot
			localTranslationStart = 0,0,0
			localTranslationEnd = 0,0.065,0
			maxRateChange = 0.7
		}
	}
		
}

@INTERNAL[jetfireASET]:NEEDS[Galen]
{
	@PROP[SeatV2],1
	{
		@name = Warbird_2_PilotSeat
	}
	@PROP[swPUSH_RCS]
	{
		@name = Warbird_Switch_V3_PilotSeatHeight
	}
}

 

I thought it would repalce the seat prop currently in the IVA with the one that can have the height adjusted. Props show up in IVA but seat height isn't affected.

It seems reasonable at first glance. The first thing I would check would be to make sure that seatPilot is the right transform in the model to attach the InternalSeat module to Remember that all of those things are case sensitive too.

Well I was afraid you'd say that... That is definitely the right name, but no luck. Only clue I have now is i get a NRE when with the prop added. Was hoping I was missing something easy and obvious. Sucks cause that height raising prop is a god send for the stupidly shaped kerbals. Landing is so much harder without being able to see above the dash IMO. Thanks anyway. Looking forward to whatever you add to this mod.

I got it I thought you were moving the transform baked in the IVA. You are moving the transform attached to the chair and that were you are putting the kerbal not in a baked in transform. So, I got it working and saw the ASET was working on the same height adjustment, but never implemented it. However his chair seemed to distort female kerbals  at least so I am back to using your props. I really want to set up IVA building because it's so much more fun playing that way. Thanks for the best IVAs!

Hey everyone. Sorry for being gone another two months (from the forums - five from the last time I posted in here). For all that time I've been busting my butt putting together the biggest and baddest show my band has ever played, getting into a new relationship, rewriting all the lesson plans I used last year to be better because the pressure is on at work this year - if we don't significantly uptick the school graduation and test passing rate, the school could be closed - and trying to settle into a new living space.

And last Sunday, my appendix burst.

So I do know that I love KSP, that I'm interested in continuing to work with @SpinkAkron on UKS and on Warbird Cockpits. I know I'll be back someday, but I'm not sure when. Thanks for all the support and enthusiasm for what I wanted to accomplish here.

Oh man -- all the things, right? Especially hope you're healing up after that appendix. Crikes!

As always, your past efforts with the cockpits and UbM stuff, etc. has been terrific. Look forward to your return!

And -- with some motion going on over in the RPM thread, i'm seeing some pretty nice cockpit IVAs again in 1.8.1!

I can't dm the creator for some reason so I'll post it here. There is a bug in at least the Mk 2 Inline Cockpit, and I assume every other cockpit, where it won't detect power if the craft has more than 10,000 units of charge. As soon as you run the batteries bellow 10,000 the cockpit has no problem turning on. Hope someone sees this.

That's a really odd case -- I wonder if @theonegalen customized the props, and 10K EC actually rolls a digit over so it thinks the value is less than zero. It seems like a bit of an edge case, since warbird cockpits are typically on "small" aircraft, but it sounds like something that should be fixable.

I took a quick look at the files and I have zero inclination as where to start looking.

Well, that's a fun bug! I'd have to look into my custom variables to be sure, but from what I recall, I may have set 10000 as an arbitrary upper limit because I couldn't set it to infinity. I'll try a million next time.

If you go into the .cfg of custom variables, and look for a variable that says "electrical_on" or "power_on" or something like that, you can just add however many extra zeroes you need to get it to work.

Hello!
Is this mod in active development? Or will development ever be resumed?
I would really love to get more IVA for the AirplanePLus parts.
If this is still on hiatus, could you help some total newbie start making IVA's?
Thank you very much for your attention.

Have a good one!

Just got a new computer today, and resuming development is definitely something I intend to do. The next version of the mod will focus on changing over the RPM internals of the current cockpits to MAS, and perhaps one new cockpit to give me a reason to update all the MAS props. I am also going to be playing a few different games, so I don't expect the update to the mod to be completed for a couple of months at least. I had hoped to get back to development before I had to go back to work, but I wasn't able to get my new computer earlier due to financial considerations. I am a teacher in Texas, so we're starting school next week.
