[1.10.x] PlanetShine 0.2.6.3

[prestja]

As neither @Valerian or @Papa_Joe seem to be maintaining PlanetShine, I've recompiled and updated PlanetShine for KSP 1.8 and higher. The functionality of PlanetShine remains largely the same, although debug lines are temporarily disabled while I resolve an issue with them.

If you have any screenshots you'd like to share, please DM me a link so I may add them to the album with full credit.

Installation

PlanetShine can be installed through CKAN. Simply search for "PlanetShine".

Alternatively, you can download PlanetShine at the releases pages and extract to a folder. PlanetShine is installed like any other mod, by copying the GameData\PlanetShine folder into your GameData folder.

Source code can be found on GitHub.

The original (well, next to original) thread for this mod can be found below.

Nice! But I think the original author was already planning that:

I did this a few hours before you, lol.  It got taken down.

We mod authors need to try and communicate better, I think.

Thanks for the link. I'll keep this up until Valerian gets that recompile done.

Sweet, meanwhile I might use this to see if I can find some more bugs

@prestja you're versioning on the release page is incorrect/conflicts with whats stated in your thread.

I've fixed it, good catch!

@prestjaI assume this doesn't show up in CKAN.

That's correct. It's something that could be done relatively easily though. I will look into it.

Thank you! I hope this one survives the storm!

Thanks for this, I was hoping there would be Planetshine for 1.8 but could never find it on CKAN. Hitherto I've been using an earlier version, and it works, but I kept getting this strange artifact associated either with engines or Kerbals. I also got the same red error message spammed in the debug menu while using it, talking about null objects and exceptions, so I'm assuming it was related. After a process of elimination I concluded it was Planetshine, because everything went back to normal after I removed it. Hopefully this 1.8 version will work correctly.

Thanks again. I really appreciate the work by mod-makers and those who continue their work.

Thanks for giving this a try! I'm overdue for CKAN support - got distracted by semester and all. Hopefully I'll get that done within the next week, should make it easier for people to find the 1.8 version.

Sorry to ask but it's still not on CKAN?

I've submitted a pull request that should get it on CKAN soon. I'll let you know as soon as it's up.

[toString]

Just downloaded it, thank you!

What about 1.7.3 which version should i use for that

I'm trying to get a recompile for 1.7.3 up but I'm running into some issues. In the mean time, use the last version 0.2.5.3 through CKAN (KSP version 1.4). This adds the planet shine effect, but there's a side effect of a magenta plane sticking through the midsection of your craft. If I can get a recompile for 1.7 I'll let you know. Sorry for the trouble.

Still work in 1.9?

[Zerolera]

correction: I modified the mod without want, changing other mods, but it seems to work fine in 1.9 (Except for the icon in the mod toolbar)

what does that mean??

Edited February 26, 2020 by BasilTBL

I'm guessing it means Planetshine works in 1.9, as implied in the first sentence of the original post.
