Increased fairing maximum length for AE-FF000, AE-FF125, AE-FF250, AE-FF375 and AE-FF500 parts Updated drag cube for the "HS-I Deluxe Inflatable Heat Shield" so that it properly changes when deployed and retracted Updated the side count of the RF-AD-L 800 fuel tank to better match like-sized parts Updated the side count of the RS-AD 800 fuel tank to better match like-sized parts Saving and Loading Fixed: error generated and failure to load when attempting to load a game with a crash-landed vessel Fixed: error spam while loading a game with a vessel orbiting Kerbol Tutorials Fixed: First Time User Experience confuses map view for tracking station view Fixed: the player loses keyboard and camera control when pausing and resuming a tutorial mission while in map mode in the Training Center Fixed: training center shows artifacts in the background when transitioning from VAB Fixed: tutorial "Deorbiting" does not detect a crash event correctly UI/UX Fixed: Flight UI flickers when using an AMD GPU [1] Adjusted interactable area on scrollbars Improved how loading tips are displayed to show more of them Updated fairing editor icons to improve legibility Fixed a HUD issue that occurred when scaled to 50%.

Performance Degradation While we have seen improved performance in many ways as noted in the Optimization section above, some players may see issues on GPU bound setups while in orbit around Kerbin or on the surface of other planets. We are working to resolve this issue and if you see any change in your performance, please fill out a bug report through the link below.

Socraticat Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Two small bugs I'm absolutely thrilled to see in this fix.

NovaRaptorTV Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 There's an issue with the EM-500 engine plate. There are only two attach nodes, one on the fore of the part, and one on the aft where the engines are supposed to go. There should be three more nodes to attach engines on that part. This issue has been present since v0.1.1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This issue has been present since v0.1.1. all engines are surface attachable, so you don't need any nodes to attach them to the plate, that's a feature, not a bug, as far as I know Edited August 30, 2023 by munix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowZone Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 As your resident patch historian, allow me to present the statistics for this: Total items Community % of total 0.1.1 281 42 15% 0.1.2 173 36 21% 0.1.3 165 17 10% 0.1.4 81 9 11% Patch 4 has less than half the number of fixes than the previous one did. Does this make it worse? Hard to say, since I would assume work on the orbital decay bug must have taken quite a lot of time and developer resources. Which is why the sheer number of fixes rarely gives the full picture of how much of an improvement a patch really is. That being said, I have seen quite a few fixes for construction that will make my life a lot easier! Now to downloading it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Socraticat Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 I've been wanting to, but have been waiting for this new patch. It's hard to hunt for things when you're not sure if you're barking at something that's already known or already been fixed. Besides, most of the bugs preventing me from getting further into the game had already been addressed. Now that we are past that and into the new muck, I'm very stoked to fly into the fires of krakenous glory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurkonier Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Nice work. But sadly, this problem wasn't improved in any way for me. I still have the same problem of decaying orbits at the same rate, as before. I still can't put any probe in orbit around Mun or Minmus, because they will collide with the surface at the next revolution. This is still a game breaking bug for me. 36 minutes ago, Intercept Games said: Improved orbits decaying when vessels are not applying any thrust [1] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you allude two, I’d rather see them fix five game-stoppers than fifteen minor bugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicrose Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Definitely feels better to play as far as performance goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We identified and removed two issues that were slowing down the game but even after that, there is still a difference in perf between 0.1.3.2 and 0.1.4.0 that we want to keep investigating and fix in upcoming patches. It is not a general thing, some players might notice it and others might not but it is definitely there so we will continue looking for the changes that are dragging us back.

Alexoff Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 It seems that not all bugs that were previously reported as fixed are listed in the patch notes. Devs forgot to write here or they are not corrected? For example bugs number 5, 6, 15, 20... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyenaDae Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) I found that starting a new save clears up a huge amount of performance problems, and for me I'm seeing an 60-80% performance improvement over Patch 2 on my 5800X + 3080ti. Still a lot of areas where I'm CPU limited (ie, vsync off, 1080P Medium 4xAA). Main thing that's bothering me is the SAS Mini-wobbles even when the ship is stable and not under acceleration, wasting RCS. No improvements on that front yet. Posted a bug report for the Camera (Auto) mode freaking out and jumping between views until you force it with 'V' key. The phantom forces in orbit are still here, maybe not as bad as before, but I had a Mun low orbit or 9.5KM and 11.5km, and has degraded to 6.3KM and 13.8km after a few mins (and still going) so there's still something pushing me despite my speed being 551KM/s Edited August 30, 2023 by HyenaDae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
