EngineeringEnjoyer Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 (edited) Do these extra antennae from the mod show up in the tech tree? I'm playing a science mode save. Edited July 25 by EngineeringEnjoyer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SergeantBlueforce Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 What does the "other vessel rating" slider in the commnet info PAW group do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SergeantBlueforce Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 So it's showing you the maximum range at which both vessels can be connected? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, if you have a relay somewhere, then it could be helpful for designing a new vessel to be able to connect to the relay, but not something else.

SergeantBlueforce Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Does the range calculator provided by CommNet info account for the antenna strength modifier in the difficulty settings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit Fiddler Posted Sunday at 04:59 AM Share Posted Sunday at 04:59 AM (edited) after installing the consumpter I have many ship designs that cannot sustain the EC draw. I have looked in the PAW and there is no way to enable and disable the antenna. I assume this is because the ship is using an internal antenna, and it is from a mod that you have not made a patch for? Or should this mod already find any antenna defined as internal and reduce the EC usage, or provide a switch? For example, I made a small airplane with two of the mk1 open inline cockpit, and the craft draws 12 EC/second. The only thing that uses EC on this airplane is the cockpits. So, my question is do I have some mod conflict that is making them consume too much power, or do these cockpits need to be added to a compatibility patch? Or is the consumption rate just so high that even a small internal antenna in a cockpit will draw this much power? If it is by design that these antennae draw this much power, how can I adjust the "difficulty" setting on this mod to make it draw less EC? I like the Idea of this mod, but if all my small probes and aircraft will suddenly need reactors or huge solar arrays then it is just too much for me. If it was such that an antenna in an idle state is drawing 1EC or less and only ramps up when sending science, is extended (where possible), or if it is a relay antenna that is actually being used to relay a signal to some remote craft, then I would be much happier with it. But as it is now, none of the alternators on the airplane engines seem to be able to keep up with the EC usage on Direct/Internal antennae in an idle state. And even adding in RTGs or fuel cells is not going to fix it, as they all make around 1 EC/s, and on this example craft it is drawing 12 EC/s. So basically, all my aircraft would need a full-on reactor on them. Edited Sunday at 05:04 AM by Bit Fiddler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flart Posted Sunday at 04:51 PM Author Share Posted Sunday at 04:51 PM @Bit Fiddler Most likely there is some mods conflict, 12 EC/s for small plane is not ok. I don't know mods that make all internal antennas very powerful (probably something around 10T), but in this scenario any part with internal antenna will draw 6 EC/s (because of 10T power) Share KSP.log and GameData/ModuleManager.ConfigCache — not on the forum, load somewhere online, and put links there.

Bit Fiddler Posted Sunday at 06:06 PM Share Posted Sunday at 06:06 PM I do not have that MM file in my game data folder. I do have a message on load about an error preventing the cache from being saved. I will just send the MM log instead, if this will help. There are a few issues with this install I am trying to track down, so I know there are problems in here somewhere. This is a new install I am trying to setup for a new playthrough, and all these aircraft were built with a previous install and just moved over to this one for testing, if this is any help. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/1ambgj2npcda05rqv82lc/KSP.log?rlkey=qr5qbzzf4tlwoc1o7h15ef6ee&st=v4h016bx&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/vyp8bg0bs0w8l7vt8kgk2/ModuleManager.log?rlkey=cp7my876pup5qv45afksxq8n7&st=og644sja&dl=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flart Posted Monday at 12:28 AM Author Share Posted Monday at 12:28 AM Quote I do have a message on load about an error preventing the cache from being saved. It's better to fix these MM errors to ensure the cache is saved. I checked my MM patches, the Consumptor only created for the RELAY and DIRECT antennas, but not INTERNAL, so it's probably something else.
