Looking for someone to help me making a MM patch to surface scanner

[MrFancyPL]

Hello, I'm looking for someone to help me make patch to stock surface scanner ( I want to make it able to show abundance of ModularKolonizationSystem resources on asteroids )

In spoiler down there you can see my try to make it but it is not working.

Spoiler

@PART[SurfaceScanner]
{
    MODULE
    {
        name=ModuleAnalysisResource
        resourceName = Water
    }

    MODULE
    {
        name=ModuleAnalysisResource
        resourceName = MetallicOre
    }

    MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleAnalysisResource
        resourceName = Substrate
    }

    MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleAnalysisResource
        resourceName = Minerals
    }

    MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleAnalysisResource
        resourceName = Karbonite
    }

    MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleAnalysisResource
        resourceName = Karborundum
    }    
    
    MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleAnalysisResource
        resourceName = Uraninite
    }

    MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleAnalysisResource
        resourceName = XenonGas
    }

    MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleAnalysisResource
        resourceName = ArgonGas
    }
}

It is easy to get confused between the scanners.

Your issue maybe that you are adding one functionality to the wrong part but not using it right!

You are modifying SurfaceScanner.

@PART[SurfaceScanner]
    {    MODULE
            {    name = ModuleResourceScanner
                ScannerType = 0
                ResourceName = HydrateOre
                MaxAbundanceAltitude = 1000
                RequiresUnlock = false
            } etc.

which would be different from the SurveyScanner

@PART[SurveyScanner]
    {    MODULE 
            {    name = ModuleAnalysisResource
                resourceName = HydrateOre
            } etc.

Note the OrbitalScaner  is same same but different.

@PART[OrbitalScanner]
    {    MODULE
            {    name = ModuleResourceScanner
                MaxAbundanceAltitude = 500000
                RequiresUnlock = true
                ScannerType = 0
                ResourceName = HydrateOre
            } etc.

 

Peace.

Peace.

Its not the reason. The surface scanner shows abundance on planets but on asteroid it only shows that its asteroid and no more. I tried using moduleanalysisresource because on KSP wiki is written, that it shows the abundance sended from ModuleAsteroidAnalysis.

Are you adding ModuleAsteroidAnalysis? Does it already have it?

[MrFancyPL]

Yes it already has it in its cfg, I didn't have had to add it.

MKS asteroid scanner has been broken forever (either due to, or regardless to the presence of an empty config file) for as far as I know. Your best bet is to ask in the MKS thread and see if the status has changed on that.

Some mods have asteroid specific cfg for resources?
