T1mo98 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Great update. But there are a couple things that I sorely miss: Grey, metal varients of the flat adapters. Fully white varient of the Rockomax Brand Adapter. Varients of the Rockomax Brand Adapter and Nosecone without the grey stripe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw the same suggestion in the Tech Support forum as I was going to report the issue there, and same thing had been reported. i did Verify the files, and it said it found 2 that it needed to redownload. I let it do its thing, did Verify again, didn't show any problems. Loaded KSP, and craft shows invalid parts, building new craft starting with MK2 Lander Can still shows the Variant multiple slider issue. Expand Well, in that case, I'd suggest opening a new thread in the appropriate "Tech Support" sub-forum. I'm running KSP 1.6 here, and it's working just fine for me. Therefore it seems likely to be a problem at your end-- something about the state of files on your system, somehow. Diagnosing would require diving into more details, looking at your log file, etc., so not something to address here in this thread. It's what the tech support forums are for.

FleshJeb Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Limited the amount of undo/redo steps in the editors to prevent excessive use of memory while building large, complex vehicles. The amount of steps can be adjusted via GameSettings.EDITOR_UNDO_REDO_LIMIT I figured out that was problem the other day, when I had to do a LOT of undos on a large craft. If this setting is defaulted to less than 30, it's going to be a problem. Is the editor currently retaining a complete copy of craft per change, or is it transactional?

Snark Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Incidentally, for folks like @djr5899 and @Black-Two- who are seeing odd VAB problems with parts like the revamped Mk2 lander can, and so forth: If simply running Steam's "verify local files" function (or the moral equivalent on whatever download platform you're using) doesn't solve the problem for you... perhaps it may be worth running that and also deleting your PartDatabase.cfg file (from the root of your KSP folder) before re-starting KSP? If the game tried to start up with a corrupted set of local files, it's possible that the corruption could have screwed up PartDatabase.cfg. And since that's a locally-generated file that gets created when KSP runs, the "verify local files" function wouldn't fix it. So it may be worth seeing what happens if you delete that file before starting KSP, thus forcing the game to re-generate it.

Poodmund Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I'm not even sure this is a 1.6 thing, may have been introduced with the 1.5 revamp... but, is this the expected lighting behaviour on the HEC-II?

Unfortunately, that didn't help either. It is very strange. When I see the problem, I go into Steam, Verify the file, and it says 1 file corrupted or something and it will reacquire the file. I can completely shutdown Steam after doing that, open it back up, run Verify files, and it says everything is good. No file issues. I run KSP, see the issue. Quit KSP, run Verify again, and it again will say 1 file corrupted. Think I started off on 1.4 or somewhere in that range, and have never seen an issue like this in 4-5 version upgrades. Very odd.

sec3 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 (edited) I deinstalled and erased all from the Steam 1.5.x ; before i did a backup of the 80 mods and got it over the fresh 1.6. In Career all the mods worked fine; BUT some Errors appear: - Wolfshound Engine is changed to veryHeavyRocketry -> copy or edit the cfg files SquadExpansion\making history - entry to a lower techLevel and redo the 2.5 tons weight) - on some Ships it comments: no connectedLivingSpace etc. and docking hatch missing - But the ships will be startable. - in the R&D the thumbs on the right screen say : own but with a placeholder symbol.
