I did rename some parts in IR but not build a new release for the sequencer... you need alpha 2 for the latest IR Next Beta3 Patch4 I've to say that I never worked with the Sequencer and all I did was modify how it accessed the IR/API and then I compiled it... in case there are problems, I'd have to contact the original developer... maybe he can help us... but I will try to help as far as I can Edited April 15, 2018 by Rudolf Meier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is more than a half of fun to have multiple "lego" parts that you can combine and discover for yourself if something work properly or not, discover flaws in your own designs and how to counterpart those flaws. I understand that there always will be users who would want something that is ready to plug in and play (or pray) with it. im with @kcs123 with this one, for examble i take great pride on my work on the mechs i design, always building them again and again, never using the same schematic twice "except for the legs and arms uses same base design with little modifications from time to time when needed" and i can model them anyway i like to, so they will resemble a specific robot/mech/droid/suit or even METAL GEARS that some of my viewers desire to see. like my next project "Halo - Grunt Goblin" wich i will probably reveal tomorrow. Still working on that Pacific Jaeger "Gipsy Danger" still having problems because of its size and weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let say if unity joint limit is 1.0 (for translation) you may set part limits to be 0.9 or 0.8, whatever would prevent going beyond unity limit of 1.0. If possible of course to do something like this with unity, can't claim that I'm familiar with it at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TinanPMD Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Guys, I have a problem... (help plz x) ) When I using movement of any IR parts in flight I have a black screen with an inscription in the console "look rotation viewing vector is zero" (KJR not installed) What could it be? version 1.4.2 Installed mods Image Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurki Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 (edited) 18 hours ago, Rudolf Meier said: how did it "drift" ... I cannot see the problem and how did you connect the parts? Flt-400, then on it's bottom the hecs and then again one down the Mainsail? what was the first part? the flt400? Setup is (from top to bottom): MainSail HECS FLT400 fuel tank The "drift" is: angle value for pivotron raise over time alone without activating servos. The drift is mainly visible from the IR UI/Edit group panel (have a look in my previous post with screenshoot). If I use the rotate buttons, the servo won't respond (despite the color change and EC consumption). Another question, what's the compilation target ? x86 ? x64 ? My recompile was a specific x64 with all the KSP stuff in 64. Edited April 16, 2018 by Gurki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudolf Meier Posted April 16, 2018 Author Share Posted April 16, 2018 Beta 3 Patch 5 is online it fixes a graphics problem (after destruction of a part or decoupling/undocking the fixed meshes were shown wrong until the next scene change) and it fixes the overshooting and uncontrolled spinning bug very important: if you are testing, ALWAYS use the latest version... every Beta 3 version contains the same files, simply overwrite all of your existing files... the bugs in early patch levels sometimes have huge effects (alltough they are all tiny in the code) up to the destruction of the universe in ksp or a complete game crash it's not worth trying something with those version... and yes, I know, sometimes I release them quickly and installing them every second day may be a bit annoying... but at the moment there is no other way and I hope we will have a perfect version soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so... but describe it a little bit more precise. What do you do? Put this ship to the launch pad? Or the runway? Then what? Wait? How long? 1 second, 40 seconds? something starts to oscillate? Some numbers in the IR gui are running? How fast? If something breaks, what was the first part?... things like that... step by step. How did you launch it the second time? by "revert flight to ..." or completely from VAB/SPH again? ... or is "launch" really a "start engines" ?? and then? crash like "don't see anything and crah" or "arm moves out of position first and ...".

Would it be possible to get the default limit set in so we can still use the full range of motion without triggering this bug? I mean say you have a 180 degree hinge, set unity to have 190 range and have the default limit stop it at 5 and 185 degree so we can still have full 180 degree motion without hitting this bug. I hit this bug so hard and my little crane flew half way through the atmosphere..

And this was because of a bug inside my module... but now it's done differently and it shouldn't be possible anymore now.
