1.3.0 Antenna Range Displayed


Recommended Posts

Hi @ all.

I started a new sandbox game with DSN Modifier set to 10,

and was wondering that the Antenna range from Command Pods, Probes and Antennas shown in the VAB or SPH does not change.

 

With DSN Modifier set to 1 the shown Antenna range for the MK1 Command Pod is at L3 DSN: 35.4Mm.

When the DSN Modifier is set to 10 or anything else the shown Antenna range for the MK1 Command Pod is still at L3 DSN: 35.4Mm although the "in game" Antenna range was increased correct.

Is this a known Issue / Bug?

 

KSP 1.3.0.1804 32Bit Windows Installed over Steam.

That is true.

 

As far as i remember, the Antenna range is Calculated with the DSN Power and the Antenna Power.

Stock LvL3 DSN Power 250G  250.000.000.000

Stock Pod Power 5K  5.000

Multiply DSN and Pod Power, take the Square Root of the result and that is the Com Range between KSC and the POD: 35.4Mm.

 

If the DSN Modifier is set to 10, the DSN Power should be 2.5T  2.500.000.000.000

The Calculated Range between DSN and Pod is 111.8Mm, but only 35.4Mm is displayed in VAB and SPH.

 

I know it's just cosmetics, but it confused me. :confused:
