I just wish we could turn the rotors faster or more efficient

They are apparently working on it. The issue is that Unity has a rotational limit. Any fixes will have to fake a faster rotation somehow. Likely a separate propeller part that blurs the rotations and simulates the effect.

* Fix shadow casting string not displaying correctly if player doesn’t have the Breaking Ground Expansion.

But what does it do? It enables eclipses or what? Since the release of Breaking Ground this option remains a mystery.

Thanks a lot guys!

The suit LED colour switch means that now I’ll be able to tell between my Kerbals at a glance :D

hmmm... when will someone post a MM patch that changes suit color based upon class and rank? :P

MainThrottle axis can be bound, but only in absolute mode.

[Edit: On new craft binding MainThrottle works just fine.

For those of us with existing craft, ... ]

Throttle control, as indicated by the slider next to the nav-ball,  might control the rate of change of what throttle was set to control.

Using the U.I. in the editor to bind MainThrottle [to a robotic part on an existing craft] gives me only one of the two changes described in the workaround (link) in the bug-tracker.  If I make the second change by hand, I get the desired behavior : throttle position as indicated on the slider corresponds to the controlled variable of the part.

Or, just replace the motor with a new one in the VAB.

only existing craft have the MainThrottle entry under incremental

Have a quick question about the Making History Download pack .. was wondering if that is updated to 1.72, or do we use the 1.7.1 version and that's not going to break anything is it? Cause I found the Breaking Ground and the new version but no, makiing history Update..

 

Or is that one coming out soon?

@nestor said on the previous page that MH 1.7.1 is still fine for KSP 1.7.2.

I don't know which one it was but something fixed my #1 irritation with 1.7.1, namely Missions failing to start with any of my helicopters. It works now and opens up all kinds of possibilities! 

Thank you!

OT for the thread, but if you're building helicopters or propeller aircraft, DM me and I'll help troubleshoot; there's nothing wrong with the motors, they're super powerful. A single heavy motor can lift 70 tons or more. That's a lot of power!

I got another update today, seems like a really small update, maybe a hotfix. What was it?

There was a problem with build 2555 for those that don’t have Breaking Ground expansion installed. If you don’t have Breaking Ground you should ensure you have build 2556 showing at the. Orrin right corner when you start the game. For those that do have Breaking Ground it won’t matter if you have either. 

Details of the problem that was fixed can be found here.

I did have a thought when looking at binding robotic parts to axis.

Could we add a number of auxiliary axis?

so if I had say a 2nd joystick I could use it to control 'other' robotic functions.. for example a 2nd throttle axis on joystick 2 could control thrust vectoring.. or an arm position (or multiple joint positions), or flap extension, or wing folding, etc, etc, etc..

I haven't updated yet (mods...) but in the KSP settings menu for GOG Galaxy the latest version is 1.7.2.02555 (2 days ago), is that latest, non-Breaking Ground patch?

No, you want build 1.7.2.02556... it was a little late, sorry. But GOG should be updated now

KSP 1.7.2 is a total piece of garbage!  Try to start a new game/save and ALL THE MENUS ARE DUPLICATED.  When you right-click on a Kerbal...the menu is DUPLICATED.  Utter TRASH.  KSP 1.7.3 Anyone???  Joke.

Woah there! Calm down! Could you give us screenshot in a dedicated thread so people can help you out with this problem?

No one else has this issue... so not a bug. Probably a mod incompatibility.
