Vessel mover not working


Recommended Posts

I have version 1.2.1 and I downloaded vessel mover and put it in Gamedata as the readme said, turned on the game but there was nothing new. The readme said it would be in the toolbar ui but I don't know where that is or how to get it. I don't know what I could have done wrong, any ideas?:/  I got vessel mover from kerbalx.

I am unsure as to how you got vessel mover from Kerbalx as it is not a mod hosting site

I recommend that you refer to the OP of the BDAc thread where you will find installation instructions and download links for Vessel Mover and the other mods that the BDAc team maintain

Click on the VM releases link and scroll down until you see a VM version for your KSP version (I believe it's the 3rd release in the list) and as always, keep your stick on the ice :wink:

Well I downloaded the right one and put the file "vessel mover" where its supposed to go, but there is still no change.:/ Is it supposed to be zipped or unzipped when it goes into game data?

Unzipped.  Take the unzipped contents and drop them inside the Gamedata folder in your KSP install.  You may also need to check if Module Manager is required and that you have that as well.  I'm not familiar with VM, so I'm not sure if it's required or not.  Make sure you're trying to use a version of VM that's for your KSP version - IOW, don't try to use a VM version for 1.3.0 in KSP 1.2.1.

Tried that still didn't work. Does it need bda to work?

The VM mod page doesn't say that BDA is a requirement, so my guess would be, "no".  At this point, I think it would be in your best interest to post this issue on the Vessel Mover mod page, and follow the instructions in the spoiler section to get support from the developer/maintainer.  Scroll down to near the bottom of the first post:

Read the OP of the BDAc thread ... it is clearly explained how to install a mod

No, BDAc is not a requirement for VM

So I finally figured out what I did wrong. I had the wrong version still in the Game data folder when went to put the right one in. Now it works except I can't seem to move any vehicles. I click the VM button in the toolbar ui and a green ring shows up around the vehicle but I can't move it. I've hit all the buttons the readme said to but they don't do anything. I can spawn a new vehicle but it appears about 20 or so meters in the air and I can't seem to move that one either. This is the right version of vm for my ksp so I'm not sure what's wrong. :/
