Thanks

Does this error happen every time?  I don't see it in the log file :-(

Yes, every time. It didn't for the first ~20 missions in a new GPP based modded save. Now it does it on every start. 

Only thing I can think of that changed related to DangIt is that I had a midair engine failure, landed, tried to repair it (not enough engineer stars) and in the process moved some SpareParts around, tried all the Repair options etc. It started after that. 

[Kardea]

So I'm having a problem and I'm hoping one of you guys might be able to figure out what's going wrong: DangIt is installed and has worked flawlessly for me in the past. No issues at all. And now, suddenly, I can't take Spares from any container. The button to "Take Spare Part" has completely vanished. All other aspects of DangIt continue to work just fine... but I can't fix anything at all because I can't take a Spare Part out of a pod. I've tested it with multiple types of command pods and the button to take a spare part is just... gone. Anyone know what's up?

I have dangit installed. I had a few batteries go out and now i havent had a failure in a few IRL days.  Is it fairly uncommon to have a failure?  All settings in dangit menu are default with exception i have all failures activated.

[maculator]

I can't make the decision between this and launchfailure...

I'm really carefull with adding mods to my precious career so it would be nice if someone could help me with some answers:

- How is the performance impact?

-Is there a spreadsheet/a up to date video? Didn't find any via google. Wich level can repair what?

Yep those are the questions that bother me.

I really wish Kottabo would have a look at those mods since the available footage really isn't that advanced.

 

@HaydenTheKing I've come to this after watching a yt series and in this series failures do happen but it's not like they're verry common. He has some minor failures every now and then so I guess it's supposed to work like that.

I just came here to post how much fun I'm having with DangIt.  I've added lots of redundancy on probes, have failures along the way (most often batteries and solar panels), have to adapt around them to complete primary and secondary mission objectives, think about how to minimize active hours, remember to set things to a fail-safe config before long timewarps, etc etc.  It's a thick layer of interesting complexity on top of standard KSP.  I love it.

I'm using both DangIt and LaunchFailure, as they're fairly distinct.  I have no idea what the performance impact is, if any.

[maculator]

This really sounds like the thing I would want^^

I only play with x-science, alarm clock and mj on my "stockish" career. I limited myself to the least possible ammount of mods and thats really the bare minimum I would play with.

Now I ramped up the visuals a bit but I'm seriously looking to slowly add a handfull of gameplay mods too. So I think I'll go for dangit and KIS/KAS that should make things a bit more interresting.

 

Edit:

There is a thing I'm stil courius about: It doesn't affect unloaded vessels, does it? I mean my deep space sats are at the edge of kerbns soi having them fail every now and then would be a serious problem since theyre like 80000000m away.

Been getting a lot of log-spam of 'Adding leak: [none]' and 'FailureModule.OnLoad". Any tips what sort of issues/conflicts I should be looking for here? Is it possible it's related either to KCT or switchable tank modules?

[linuxgurugamer]

Yes, try removing them and see what happens

No, it doesn't affect unloaded vessels

Thanks.

Dang it can happen any time, including during launches.

Launch Failure only during launches

[HaydenTheKing]

I reinstalled this mod and it seemed to be working again.  All the sudden every vessel that has a 2.5 cargo bay had failures? Now I'm getting the warning sound when I click on any vessel or return to let alone space center

[HaydenTheKing]

New issue I try to fix a broken part and it uses the spare part but part remains broken

[linuxgurugamer]

Unless it is really needed, I'm delaying the 1.3 update for this mod until I can look into some of these bugs.

Depending on the final resolution, I don't know if I'll get a bug fix out for 1.2 or not.  To a certain extent, that depends on feedback here.

The delay for the 1.3 update will probably be a couple of weeks, given my time issues.  I could release it as  is, but then the bugs will still be there

I think quite a few people will probably stick to 1.2.2 for a little bit. I'd definitely like to see a bug fix release for 1.2.2

That's a known bug

[fourfa]

This is a pretty minor usability note, not a bug.  I've had a few craft where I get the alert beeping in orbit, nothing listed in the F3 menu so I know it's not super critical.  I zoom in and rotate all around the craft and can't ever find anything highlighted in red, can't ever figure out what's wrong.  I usually pack things very densely in service bays etc so it's not trivial to inspect everything.  The ship keeps beeping every time I come back to the craft scene. There's no way to mute the alarm, other than just disabling all alarms (AFAICT)

Maybe at some point (not critical now, while Linux is updating all his mods) we could discuss having a bit more UI to call out failures?

edit: dang - now I re-read the previous posts more carefully, perhaps this is zero failures but just a simple beep bug

Hello, I have encountered bug when using Snacks and Dang It together. Containers from Snacks mod start to leak almost immediately. I have found that it was known issue, but supposedly resolved by MM patch. Despite having latest versions of both Dang It and Snacks I keep having this bug.

And of course thank you for your work on this mod and many others!

Do the Snacks! mod's radial snack tins have a stupid high rate of failure? i just had the only 3 i have used so far fail within 5 minutes of launch... something's going wrong, or perhaps I am supposed to do something different with them? do they break under small g forces?

 I've had the same problem with the instantly leaking snacks! parts. Do you know why that happens, linuxgurugamer?

[linuxgurugamer]

Not yet.  I've been busy with mod updates, I'm about to start working on DangIt!

That's what it sounds like.

NOTICE:

I'm starting to work on DangI!'s bugs.  I only see the following 3 bugs on the tracker:

1. Alarm sounds when switching vessels or switching from mapview to vessel if something is broken on another vessel
2. Broken RCS thrusters are unrepairable after saving and loading
3. Snacks! containers instantly leak

Please let me know ASAP if there are any other issues.  Adding them to the Github Issue list is also very useful, it's the only way I can keep track of everything

[linuxgurugamer]

I need some help testing.

This is a BETA release for 1.2.2:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/wti8qh75490ccci/DangIt-0.7.12.1.zip?dl=0

•     Fixed nullref in WheelMotor on start
•     Restricted alarm to sounding only when part is failed on active vessel
•     Changed Update to LateUpdate in AlarmManager
•     Restricted failures to active vessel only (in FailureModule)

Please let me know if it helps,  Specifically, this should fix the alarm sounding all the time

[linuxgurugamer]

If I don't get any responses about the 1.2.2 beta, I'm going to assume no one wants it and will proceed to move to 1.3.  Once I do that, I won't have time to revert changes for 1.2.2

So, it's up to you guys.  I was told that people wanted it on 1.2.2, so I'm doing this for you, not for me.

Let me know

I've had the alarm sound problem with previous versions. Will give this one a try in my 1.2.2 install.

I've moved on to 1.3. Mostly due to your work updating half my mod list.

Since you were one of the people who requested it for 1.2.2, could you do me the courtesy of testing what I released?  Otherwise I'll drop 1.2.2.

Sunday is the deadline, if I don't hear anything by Sunday, I'll move on to 1.3

@linuxgurugamer

I'm testing the 1.2.2 now

EDIT: Is Win64 still not supported? Just saw that on the trouble shooting page on the Wiki
