Doh! Should have thought of that first. Turned out to be Kerbal Joint Reinforcement, which makes sense. Thanks for your suggestion anyway.

Yeah, since the update, my game has been very unstable with any mods at all. And with the DLC, I find the parts just do weird stuff (like one hinge will open and the other won't) unless I play in a completey stock game. Right now I'm not keen to try and trace what is causing what, so I'll just live with the vanilla game for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmpCat Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) Anyone else having issues with the new suits not showing up? I don't know what I'm missing. All the other new stuff is there. I downloaded with Steam, already tried checking integrity of files. Still old space suits. Even did a fresh install, no mods.

jarnold Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Have you chosen the suit in VAB/SPH? It's where you assign crew to seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyRender Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) It kind of seems like deployable science doesn't actually transmit anything on its own. I have a lovely setup on the Mun with 5 relay satellites (2 regular antennae, 2 relay antennae each) in synchronized 100KM orbits for continuous surface coverage, yet even in sunlight my deployed science won't transmit. I've got enough power, I've got a control unit for them, all of the stations say they're connected, yet no science goes out. What gives?

Chaotic Protocol Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I'm curious here. How is everybody finding surface features? I have a contract for Green Sandstone in a new career game but I swear I've looked everywhere and I can't find it. I found the Minmus spire things but none of the sandstone?

Critter79606 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) Found a couple bugs with the telescoping hydraulic cylinders. When power runs out, they collapse instead of stopping in place. This is not possible with a hydraulic system. Even with a leak, it would only slowly fall based on the rate of the leak. When a hydraulic engine stops, the piston stops. The next video shows 2 of 3 symmetrical cylinders failing while the 3rd continues it's pre-programmed course. I also had the rotation servo not be able to stop, even when the power ran out, and the control said it was off.

RealKerbal3x Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Yay! It's out! I'll probably buy it tomorrow, and then I can give all of this stuff a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When a hydraulic engine stops, the piston stops. That depends very much on the system involved (actual engineer here) and how it is designed. It's quite possible for a failed or de-powered hydraulic system to still allow movement. Aircraft, for instance, often have 3 independent hydraulic systems for control surfaces. If the moving parts froze upon system failure, the redundant systems would be unable to continue carrying the workload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, in looking in the VAB, I don't see anywhere in the screen assignment tab where I can change their suits. Edit: Okay, I found the little coat hangar icon. It's about 3mm tall on my 4k monitor. Wish that were pointed out more in some of the announcements. Edited June 1, 2019 by AmpCat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a wire coat hanger looking symbol next to the kerbals in the crew tab. Same icon in the astronaut complex. Click that and it cycles through the suits.

AmpCat Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Okay, now the real question: How do I get them to change uniforms in flight? I know they packed spare clothes. They've been in space for a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have over a hundred mods installed, and have had no issues at all. But I'm also a bit more patient and less accusatory than some, too.

It's just observing what is what. I've been using the same set of mods for a while and in the recent updates, I am crashing a lot, which I have not had issues with in the past. (Well, crashing the game. Crashing planes is another story ) I uninstalled the mods to so I could continue to play. Then I continued to build my plane, which was a simple X-wing. I tested it and it worked--the wings opened as they were supposed to. I tried reinstalling just a few mods (not including Kopernicus which I thought might be the issue). No crashing, but the plane did not work: the top wings deployed and the bottom ones stayed stuck closed. So I uninstalled all the mods, and the plane worked again. I just have not taken the time to go through mod by mod of the remaining ones to see who the culprit is. It will get sorted out I am sure in time. I did not expect everything to work perfectly from the get go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyRender Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Either there's some bad mod synergy going on, or the "gather surface science" mission is buggy right now. It started out saying "gather 100% of 50% of surface mystery goo science", but now it's saying something absurd like "4,538% of 50%" instead.

LameLefty Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 The KAL module forgetting all the programming upon reverting a Quick Save seems like a pretty obvious bug to have been missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not expect everything to work perfectly from the get go. I understand. I realized later my wording was maaaybe a bit harsh, despite being accurate. My point was more than sometimes people blame instability on new KSP versions and Squad, when the real reason may be incorrectly installed or corrupted mods, or even just poorly written mods. Remember, believe it or not, it's actually a lot more likely a mod is poorly written than the root game. The main difference is a mod will get feedback and fixed within days, rather than months. So just because a new patch comes out, don't fear the patch. Just play it and help hunt bugs, rather than accusing Squad of bad programming. Or, if you rather not deal with it, then sure, just wait it out. But it might be a month or two. But sure, paying money for a new patch that could be more buggy now, than in a month? If you're tight on funds, sure, wait. If not? Live a little! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
