Yes it looks stupid but whats the point in orbital construction if you are limited to 7m? A craft that sized can be launched in a fairing on the flee solid rocket booster. So it's not 7m from the Kerbal? Now I feel even more justified in upping that to 70. Maybe I'll even make it 700. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'll even make it 700. Its also 7m from the kerbal! The kerbal needs to be within 7 m of the root part to be exact for attaching parts that require node attachments. For surface attachements its only 7m from the kerbal. In theory you can attach a node part at 14m. The kerbal needs to be sitting 7m from the root part and you attach the part 7m away from the kerbal. Do I make any sense?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should probably be reported as a bug, because attachment nodes should be always visible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would summon the Wrath of the Krakens on heavy crafts with autostruts the same way docking does. I would cope with a 7M limit from the nearest part, instead - or, better, from the part that will receive the constructed part. 14 hours ago, dave1904 said: In theory you can attach a node part at 14m.

But anything bigger than a small Space Station will demand you to play snipper to attach the constructed part on the right node.

Rakete Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 (edited) This eva construction radius should ONLY be tied to the respective Kerbal - not any rootpart. Why? Cause it's the kerbal, who's constructing and it has nothing to do with any root part. Do the devs read this discussion threat ?!

dok_377 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Can somebody from the dev team explain this? Is this just a mistake or? The bug was changed from "confirmed" to "ready to test", even though there is no new releases of the game. The 1.11.1 isn't out. But the target version wasn't even set to 1.11.1, it was set to the same version of the game that the original bug was reported in, 1.11.0.

Yes, RTT is Ready To Test, and means it will go to QA next. But it has to be thoroughly tested and passed by us before it's put into a release.

I mentioned the bug tracker not regarding the bug itself, it was just interesting to me that the bug has been marked as ready to test without the new version release and the target version being the same as it was reported in, that's all. But I feel you, reported a couple of bugs myself and sometimes you feel like nobody is even reading this stuff. 1 hour ago, Superfluous J said: Not from the dev team but as a computer professional I can explain this.

It was strange to me because Squad always puts "ready to test" on a bug after the new version has been released. Never seen it change before the release.

Xavven Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 I still find it odd that EVA fuel is magically refilled when returning to the craft. Shouldn't it be taken from monopropellant or something? Infinite EVA refills just doesn't seem right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't it be taken from monopropellant or something? Infinite EVA refills just doesn't seem right. From the Announcement: Quote EVA fuel has a density now:Kerbal EVA fuel was always a bit abstract. With the addition of separated jetpacks and the EVA Fuel cylinders, we’ve adjusted that. Now EVA fuel is 5kg/unit, and the Kerbal respond as you’d expect as it's burned up - jumping a little higher, being able to accelerate faster with the Jetpack. You are right - since they are going more realistic, EVA fuel ideally should not be replenished automatically. However... This is what was always happening until KSP 1.10.2 (unless your KSP is modded), and so such a decision would break a lot of savegames that were made when we had plenty of EVA fuel by spontaneous generation. If it would be on my shoulders, such a change should be applied only on new savegames, with savegames imported from previous KSP versions sticking with older rules - unless the user set an option like 'apply new rule to old savegames' or something.

Every update and every new feature needs a new save to be applied. I miss that game but having to restart again and again to enjoy a bug fix or content update...ugh...so far Kerbal has avoided that. Hopefully that will continue to be the case for any new future changes/updates. Edited January 10, 2021 by Boyster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no I wasn't working 70 meters away from the root part, either Edited January 10, 2021 by Superfluous J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astronomer Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) IDK how to reproduce this so this is not a bug report. I just could not not share this screenshot of Bill getting cloned?! xD When I switch to the clone (whomst I cannot control) in the bottom right I see this: Since I could not control the clone I had to dispose of him through the tracking station. For anyone curious how this happened: I was building on the station while holding the ladder of the hitchhiker then boarded. The 'dead' Bill was still on the ladder obstructing the hatch, while the living one was inside the hitchhiker.
