Sir Mortimer Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 16 hours ago, gulegule said: To me the new science system felt like it cut against one of the things I like about this mod. Namely that "the need to repeat the same experiment in a situation multiple times has been removed" (from here: https://kerbalism.readthedocs.io/en/stable/science.html#tweaks). This is especially evident in early career science-ing, needing multiple launches to get a full crew report doesn't feel like the right kind of challenging. The crew report taking that long is an issue with the configs that we since changed. You'll be able to do a full crew report and a goo with your very first Mk-1 pod sitting on the launch pad. Trust me, I absolutely hate having to do multiple launches for the same experiment, but this is different. You still will be able to do all the experiments in one swoop, it just might be tricky to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you can now just leave all experiments running, and they just automatically measure whatever's there, which is *really cool*. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Passive science is amazing, means I can get other contracts done while I'm collecting science. It is a shame however that science gathering and transmitting at he same time induces quite a bit of lag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like that too. Buuuuuuut, it can get you killed when EC is tight and you forget to turn them back off . Thats easy to work with though and overall I love the change.

You could set them to automatically turn off at low power using the Kerbalism auto tab so that wouldn't be an issue, if that's what you wanted to do.

dylsh Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Hey guys. I’ve read most of the posts and the main thread and haven’t found a solution to my problem. Maybe someone here can help. I’m running KSP1.6.1 and the corresponding install of Kerbalism. I’m having trouble with science from mods such as ScanSat and DMagic Orbital Science. When trying to either keep or transmit the science, I receive a message saying there isn’t enough room on my hard drive. Is this just because I need a better probe core? Thanks!

Krastynio Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Hello! I have been out of the ksp galaxy for a few solid months... Last time i was playing on 1.45 eheh... kerbalism has become my go to LS&more mod; so much so that i don't ever remember how stock background processing works... eheh (i should re-look into it). I would like to start a brand new career focused on interstellar colonization.. and even if everybody has suggested me USI for that i must admit i have never used it... xD but the logistic mechanics looks interesting to remove some micromanagement... BUTT; having said so.. Would be nice to have a Kerbalism adventure to the stars with Nertea's suite... (dunno maybe i like tens of dead ragdoll kerbals floating in space). So, anyone of you guys (&gals) know of some way to add another star system(s) compatible with kerbalism? All the planet pack i have seen just substitute the stock system with a new one, and a few (like TWB and KSS/GalaxiesUnbound) do not seem to have config for kerbalism at the moment.. (and changing a few config would not be that big of a problem... but i just started Javascript so i'm in no way a codemaster xD so if there are some patch already made i won't complain...) Thanks, and Fly safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downgrade to 2.1.2, unless you're purposefully playtesting 3.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, I think you can even load old savegames without game breaking issues. We were able to avoid breaking compatibility after all. KCT should work New horizon will be an issue: if there are new bodies, they won't have magnetospheres, van allen belts and radiation parameters. But the bigger issue I think is that new horizons replaces the central body of the universe with something that is not a sun, and that will cause issues.

NH works fine with the current kerbalism, but i might go back to stock if that is needed (I grew a bit tired of the stock system tbo).
