Lothsahn Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 As a mod developer, for my first 15m playing with 1.3, it's a massive improvement. It's fixed a number of bugs I've been running into on my mod. Wheel destruction throwing script errors, for one. Performance seems significantly improved as well (although there were some code submissions from a fellow dev that may have improved performance at the same time). I know you guys may not see a big difference, but from where I stand, it seems to have helped a lot. Now I gotta go back to trying to position packed vessels properly. Fun times!

Azimech Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Questions: So fuel lines & struts now have the ability to move the other end. However, when I move one in symmetry, the other one does not. Did I miss something and is there an option to move them all? The pre-release page of the bugtracker is still open but how can I move the issues I created to the regular tracker? Some of them are just feedback for future versions. I'd like to vote in the bugtracker but I don't see how. Where should I look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i have done this than sorry. 8 hours ago, Red Iron Crown said: Each of those countries has >50% more population that Germany, so I'd say that is pretty unlikely. I think whats Maschbauer means is that german (also like french) will not only spoken in his main countrys - german also is the language in Austria and Switzerland - French speaks a great part of the world. Therefore the most other games are translated in this languages first. Another point that speeks for this translation is that here you can use letters - for chinese and japanise you need to convert all in logograms whats really more difficult and no one should wonder about the long time of developementr in this languages. The third point is that a german translation mod already exist from the german KSP forum. But as they want to provide this to Squad - they say that they dont want this. I think actual Squad is not as professionell as we think. But no matter - KSP is also nice in english and we all can play this - looking forward what happens in the future.

I remember how you were one of the first to build turboprops with me. Anyway ... about the performance. I just did a test between 1.1.3 and 1.3 using my crash test simulator car, 1123 parts. Started a new save game, set all GFX to low and all other settings the same (if present). No mods except a modified stock wheel. My conclusion: there is no performance increase at all, sometimes even a small decrease. It's worst when I crash the car, in 1.1.3 there was hardly a slowdown, in 1.2 and newer the whole simulation pauses from anything between 3 to 10 seconds. The only versions to be quicker than 1.1.3 were the very first 1.2 pre-release versions. The optimizations really paid off. After that a lot of new features were added and all performance gain was lost. Here's the car, already being wrecked by the Yllions.

There's huge French / German communities on KSP which can be angry with lack of communication on language planned/confirmation/roadmap. It's sad. And these sort of responses are bad responses, we don't know what language have been planned at the first time, we don't know if the probable language pack will be for this year or in 10 years ... We only know there was planned 9 languages in November, we saw the work on French/German Kerbal name generator and after this nothing, we wait, we wait and always nothing. And on twitter we can see always the same bad copy-past answer ... In French, it's call "langue de bois" ^^ (I don't know how to translate this). Squad you don't like our local communities? Which will work on a project on KSP with CNES to make challenges ... Which had worked on KSP localisation since many years? We really want to help our children to play to KSP, to help them in the learning of how works space. @SQUAD@Badie@nestor@UomoCapra a nice, constructive response can make us happy , don't forget us.

Green Baron Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 (edited) I don't care about languages. English is plain, straightforward and easy. Almost a formal language. But easier than C++ :-) I want a stable game ! Edit: ... but then again, it's not that important. It's just a game and i certainly had my fun with it (in some versions) !

Pretty much the same as what I'm seeing, and exactly what I expected. I would still be running 1.1.3 for the performance, but can't because of the constant crashes... How's 1.2.2 vs 1.3?

The saves are compatible if you changes the language? The saves are compatible across languages, but keep in mind that certain things may be saved in the language you had at the time - for instance, the language of the subjects/descriptions of contracts or science experiments that make it into your savefile are decided at the moment the contract is generated or the experiment is done, and then persists in your savefile. So it is possible to have stuff in different languages in the same savefile if you switch a few times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Post-release: People complaining KSP isn't translated enough. It's almost like the community isn't a monolithic hivemind all wanting the same thing. Shock! I think I've moved from "waiting for new useful KSP features" on to "waiting for someone else to release a competent KSP clone".

Jimmidii Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 One of the (not so) hidden benefits of localising software is that it needs virtually every line of code be given at least a once over. That naturally leads to many many bug fixes. So far for me, 1.3 (completely unmodded) seems like it might be the most solid version of KSP yet. Very happy so far, a massive thank you to the Devs and QA team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.A.P.O.R. Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 While trawling for updated mods for this release, I've found a bunch of really nice looking mods that I never heard of before. Looking forward to trying them all out. My plan is to lob stock only craft at Duna, transfer my kerbals and then transport the save to 1.3 even though the language bit doesn't apply to me bug fixes and easy to read fonts are something to rejoice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
