Can you show the readouts related to the engine ISP?

Those were missing...? I'll provide an updated screen shot later today. But the only engines are three LV-Ns that are supposed to be 800 seconds.

Come to think of it, there are other quirks about that drive module. Twice now, when launching one of those things from my space plane, the topmost engine sometimes wouldn't produce any exhaust plume. The right-click menu would indicate that it was still producing thrust.

I wonder if that engine is somehow the root part. Engines aren't supposed to be root parts.

[Update] I won't bother posting an updated screen shot because it's even more confusing: Specific Impulse is displayed as zero seconds. Like it doesn't know what to do with LV-Ns. And this happens with both the spaceplane-launched version and the rocket-launched version. By comparison, the LFO Rhino stage I used to boost the rocket version to LKO had 340 seconds.

Also, on the spaceplane-launched version, the Vessel section in the save file listed the LV-N engine at the top of the triple stack as the root part. This might explain the lack of an exhaust plume, but it still seems to be producing thrust.

It appears I uncovered a different problem while trying to figure out this one: KER isn't recognizing the ISP of the LV-N engines, at least in the Vessel display. The original problem remains: How to calculate dV when one of the engines happens to be the root part. I might be able to re-root it by making the adjacent Mk1 fuel tank the root part, which would involve some save file hackery.

If I post the save files and craft files, is anyone able to parse them for problems?

Hi i have a question and a problem:
The question is: why resource mass isn't available inflight?
And the problem is, i have an edited engine for which the engineer doesn't calculate dV:
Here is the KER Log:

Does KER have "closest approach" for target and maneuver similar to basic orbit mod?

Not unless something has been changed recently. That value, and the others related to closest target approach, is actually one of the more complicated bits of Basic Orbit (not too complicated though, since KSP added in some accessible methods for calculating that information in 1.2).

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but, how do I get Engineer to show up in Blizzy's toolbar instead of stock toolbar? I saw nothing on the in-game settings, and I checked each file in Engineer folder in the GameData folder, but there is nothing related to toolbar. How do I do it?

I too wish to know this. Or at least, if it is still possible.

Hi! Didn't found a solution, maybe someone here could help? KER does not display delta v value for a spaceplane with two CR-7 rapier engines - neither in SPH or during the flight. Switching mode to space or back to atmospheric does not help, as well as reducing thrust to 0 (and again, both in the SPH and during the flight).

Game version 1.3.1, stock parts only.

Have anyone else encountered this problem?

Suggestion: Add "Miss Distance" to the Rendezvous display.

Proposed algorithm:

  1. After time to rendezvous is calculated, determine the position of the vessel and target at that time.
  2. Get the magnitude of the subtracted position vectors at that time.

dear author. I want to translate your mod into Russian. how much is this realistic? if you sent me the lines that need to be translated, I would translate them. you would then be able to embed them in the mod?

another thing about locales... there is different number format  

1234.567 ("N", en-US) -> 1,234.57
1234.567 ("N", ru-RU) -> 1 234,57

but @SQUAD doesn't have attention to it...

For mods it can be done 

private System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture =
System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture(KSP.Localization.Localizer.CurrentLanguage);

but I don't think it should be done until @SQUAD make it for the stock.

@ebigunso Known issue with RF. There is a PR awaiting review (#140) that supposedly fixes that bug but there has not been much progress on KER lately so...

Oh, great news somebody has already come up with a fix. Is there a way I can manually implement this fix into my local install?

Hi,

I just fixed the "unsupported KSP verion" if someone is interested:

Open your KerbalEngineer.version file with Wordpad and change it this way (if you are running 1.3.1):

Spoiler

{
    "NAME":"Kerbal Engineer Redux",
    "URL":"http://ksp-avc.cybutek.net/version.php?id=6",
    "VERSION":
    {
        "MAJOR":1,
        "MINOR":1,
        "PATCH":3,
        "BUILD":0
    },
    "KSP_VERSION":
    {
        "MAJOR":1,
        "MINOR":3,
        "PATCH":1
    },
    "KSP_VERSION_MIN":
    {
        "MAJOR":1,
        "MINOR":2,
        "PATCH":9
    },
    "KSP_VERSION_MAX":
    {
        "MAJOR":1,
        "MINOR":3,
        "PATCH":1
    }
}

Have a nice day

 

@mod: sorry for multipost

Hello I have installed this mode via CKAN and it says it is version 1.1.3 but when I launch the game I get an error saying "not supported version please use 1.3", five or six times... the same message.

 

How can I fix this what might be happening?

try reading the posts right above your own

I wonder a bit about the mass readout. My craft reads a mass of 233,249 / 574,346 kg. Total of fuel and oxidizer is 416889 kg, so either is 233t not dry mass or 574t not total mass, which I previously had assumed. Anyone knows?

I think the first number refers to the mass of your current stage, the second number is the total mass. I have not verified this though, but that seems the most likely answer.
