Ugh, here we go again .... another version, another bunch of mods screwed up. 

This cycle is not unique to Kerbal Space Program. There are other games where each time an update/DLC drops, the mods installed also have to be updated. We are lucky that we have such a great bunch of mod makers, such as @peteletroll, who work endlessly to keep their mods updated - and they update them fairly quickly. :)

After some testing in 1.12, it looks like it's working. I'll release a recompiled version soon™.

It has some problems when used together with the new stock rotation: if you rotate with DR then with stock, or vice versa, you get weird results. So, until I find a workaround, please use just one of them at a time!

I'm having the mod report a bad docking rotation on a connection I haven't used rotation on. I also cannot undock or decouple these docking ports through the game PAW.

Thanks for your report, @jordanjay29. Could you please try the DockRotate.dll you can download at the following link?

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1URc6KgWP55BRsDXIGpklkqGQzR9g2uWY/view?usp=sharing

Let me know if this works, and send logs!

It did!

Trying to clean up the log for just the relevant DR parts for this. I added the DLL and started KSP, went straight to the ship right away.

After some testing in 1.12, it looks like it's working. I'll release a recompiled version soon™.

It has some problems when used together with the new stock rotation: if you rotate with DR then with stock, or vice versa, you get weird results. So, until I find a workaround, please use just one of them at a time!

Can't modify the stock mechanism freeing it to rotate freely?

New release!

This will work only on 1.12.x.

@jordanjay29's bug is fixed in this release.

Also, DockRotate won't accept rotation commands if stock rotation is being used: in other words, if stock rotation angle is not zero, DockRotate rotation is disabled to keep the Kraken away.

Can you explain how it works related to the new stock mechanism?

@linuxgurugamer, if you mean how do I disable DockRotate when stock rotation is used, the code is here: https://github.com/peteletroll/DockRotate/blob/e407060144d6a47467a05345482524f8bb2f452d/DockRotate/ModuleDockRotate.cs#L263

If you mean how DockRotate works in general, that's a longer answer ;-)

Actually, not looking for code.  I'm wondering from a game point of view, what the differences are between DockRotate and the new stock mechanism, and why to use one over the other

The stock thing is fricking crafts up completely. This is a craft with a new docking port on it, in case you can't see the report. It has issues similar to robotic drift, but way worse. The robotic drift only affects the robotic part itself and all the children of the robotic part, when the new docking ports affect the whole vehicle

Spoiler

 


And I don't think it can be fixed by just installing Dock Rotate, because the broken code will still be there. The only way to get rid of this, is to downgrade to 1.11.

You can use KJR next and DockRotate, though. Regardless, it is something that should be fixed on KSP code side. Infernal robotics has suffered from same issue for a long time, trough several KSP version, until Rudolf Maier fixed it with new Infernal Robotic Next code. Same method should be used over stock robotics and new stock dock ports.

Unfortunately, I don't think KJR will be of any help here. It just stiffens the joints, where drift actually occurs because the game doesn't snap displaced robotic parts and docking ports back into place. It's a little bit different from just joint force. It might actually make parts drift less with stronger joints, but it will not help in the long run at all.

Infernal Robotics itself suffers from a lot of bugs (not drifting related) as of today. But he said that he might be able to restart the development and fix the mod, which I'm counting on at this point.

Absolutely. If there only was a way to make this happen.

I tried DockRotate+KJRNext on 1.12.2 and it seemed to hold the port in position just fine.  When I had DockRotate moving the ports, it'd release it and let it sag, but once that was done KJR would come back on and it'd spring back into place.  I didn't test it *that* extensively, though, so maybe it just takes a long time for anything noticeable to happen.

I love this mod. Will DockRotate be compatible with the 'Fix Stock Docking Nodes' mod?

The dev there mentioned, "Will probably not be compatible or break other mods that use the stock ModuleDockingNode part module",  which is also briefly mentioned in the OP here, but I don't know if it'll be incompatible.

Short answer: apparently it is.

Long answer: I tested @JPLRepo's fix in my current career. It looks like DockRotate is not only compatible, but even necessary: after installing the fix, undocking becomes problematic ("Undock" button doesn't show up). DockRotate's port state checker can fix this. I still get NREs from deep inside ModuleDockingNode:

[ERR 11:40:04.455] Module ModuleDockingNodeFixed threw during OnStartFinished: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance o>

Yeah I used this mod today and if felt kinda weird, as if the buttons on the UI werent where I remember them being before. Then they seemed there again, then another time they appeared partially  buried below some other buttons used something else.... something weird is happening, that is for sure. An interface thing.
