[1.8.1 - 1.12.2] KSP Interstellar Extended 1.29.5 Release Thread

[EvilSpace]

Hello. A month ago, I wrote in the support thread about the inoperative function of changing the nuclear fusion mode (swap fuel)
After downloading KSP-I 1.29.5 (I am using KSP 1.12), the problem still remains. I don’t know how long ago it appeared, but when you try to switch the fuel mode (whether it be a reactor or a NERVA-type engine), some kind of error occurs.
Using the LMCR example, I want to change the Uranium-238 TVR to Plutonium TVR. As soon as I press "Swap Fules" - the part is completely unusable.

The pebblebad reactor "lost" the last two upgrades. These upgrades are shown in the tech tree, but do not affect the reactor.

Is it possible to use ElectricEngineControllerFX to allow ion engines from other mods or stock to work during time warp? Most of them work quite simply (just regular engines accepting xenon and electric charge as propellants), but I can't find any documentation for this module

Ideally I would be using PersistentThrust, but the mod seems a bit broken in 1.10...

The stock ion engine is completely broken for me. I have electric charge AND xenon, but when I activate the engine, literally nothing happens. No electricity or xenon is consumed, kerbal engineer says I have 0 delta-V, and my orbit doesn't change whatsoever. The only way I even know the engine is activated is from the blue glow.

Hello

 

I´m using the IXS Command Module and I´m havin crashes to desktop everytime I use timewarp, right now I did a test timewarping in the launch pad, and it happens again.

Hello KSP Community,

 

could somebody please look at my screenshot and tell me what I am doing wrong? The Engine is supposed to produce 160kN of force while in vacuum and fully throttled, but I am getting only a fraction of it. I know that the generator can not supply the full 6MW (which the engine has as the maximum energy intake and I assume are needed to get the full force), but the batteries are fully charged and should be able to supply this at least temporarily? (But the batteries seem to have no impact at all, removing them still gives me the same engine power)

Is there any one up-to-date guide on this mod? It seems like all of the ones linked are unfinished, and the wiki is missing large amounts of linked pages. 
Also, how do I get rid of the microwave/beamed power parts? I'm probably not ever going to use them.

i have a strange problem with the halberd engine.

the engine is available in the partselector  when  the game is newly loaded. After i selected it and doing a new search with the partmanager it disappers. i also tried to find it again  using The Janitor's Closet and filter on Warp Mod but it is gone.

Loading a vessel with the engine on it works as intended also when the part isn't available anymore within the partselector. reloading the game makes the engine to appear again in the partselector

i looked for some errors in the log but couldn't find something.  has anybody of you expertienced the same issue or something similar?

I'm running into this issue, too.  I do have a line in my KSP.log, but it just says:

[LOG 19:12:08.176] deleting part kspiHalberd

Nothing above or below that seems related and I'm not sure the timestamp actually corresponds to when it happened.

This is gonna be SO hard to uninstall.

Try ckan maybe?

I'm using KSPIE and Cryogenic Engines, Unfortunatelly KSPIE is causing issues with fuels and I'm missing Liquid Methane + Oxidizer. Removing it is not an option because it breaks my game many parts are in use. I removed the ResourcesConfig and Resources folders and fuels work properly but I get errors in game. 
Any proper way to fix this?

[Wildkakahuette]

hi,

is there any patch to make this mod compatible with RO-RP1 because everytime it say "no RO" and remove the part or they wont work with other RO patched

thanks

[slyfox023]

I wanted to make note that the Atmospheric scoops aren't working, I've looked that the fourms and it says to use an Atmospheric intake but not the stock one, I've used all but stock and there's no atmo scoop in your mod, how do I properly use it? also everytime I load the scoop in, it says it's "offline" and "closed"

[Fabled_Mike]

Is this compatible with waterfall

[aravioli]

When will KSPI-E release for version 1.12.3? Thanks!

I have the same Issue, my LH2/Ox Tanks get all messed up, can't use the engines using those fuels

[ssd21345]

I use 3rd fuel switch (either configurable container or modular fuel tank) to fix it, kinda funny solution

[ToastyOats]

I think it's safe to say don't expect KSPI-E to be updated.

It's a beast of a mod and alot of these cats have full time jobs outside the Forums.

Hi is tweakable/rescale nessisary for this mod as it causes other mods such as extraplanitary laucnh pads and storage to stop working

Hello, 

I am having an issue with the Metallic Hydrogen engines, Specifically GX-220. I have KER installed and it will state a certain TWR and delta V. if I calculate the values, KER values match what is expected. For some reason the stock game's staging menu only states like 1/5 values for TWR and Delta-V. Is there a way to fix this issue?

Thanks!

Edit: I did some math this morning. Turns out that KER is looking at the Metallic Hydrogen ISP of 1700, not the combined ISP. I figured this out by changing the MH ISP to 1034s and that  ISP showed up in KER menu. but then the engine only performed at the mix of 1034 and 400 which is incorrect, so I changed it back. Not sure how to fix that in KER so I just wrote up an excel file to calculate the values to fine-tune my numbers. Still not sure why the KSP program is giving a small TWR but maybe its only looking at the Liquid Hydrogen Thrust? luckily, the actual TWR is used not the value shown in the stock menu.

If anyone know how to change the KER file to look at the correct ISP that would be helpful. Otherwise, I will just use what I have now.

Hello.

I found a bug with methane engine upgrade. When I unlock first upgrade related to this engine it thrust drops to 300 kN instead of increasing.

Step by step with pics:

Spoiler

I have plain unupgraded methane engine 

 

It could be installed on and works as intended 

 

But if when I unlock node that contain engine upgrade: 

 

Then its max thrust drops dramaticaly (in should raise to 2100 instead according to actual .cfg file)   

It also could be not a specific methane engine bug but more general error in parts upgrade code.

 

Thank you for your attention, KSPI in general is still the most "believeable" and enjoyable mod.

How do i make use of the green "universal drill"?

What do i pair it with to make it work?
