Bug Fixes Construction Re-enabled ALT to disable stack attach Increased timeout for Fairing and Wing edit icons Fixed: A.I.R.B.R.A.K.E.S do not open when selecting Deploy in the parts manager in the VAB Fixed: vessels with changed assembly roots cause failure of surface attached parts, as well as broken save behavior Fixed: triangle panels placed with mirror symmetry are not oriented correctly Fixed: the "RA-15" antenna appears inverted when placed in mirror symmetry mode on a vessel in the VAB Fixed: the "DTS-M1" antenna is not oriented correctly when placed in mirror symmetry mode on a vessel in the VAB Fixed: the "Pegasus 1" ladder appears inverted when placed in mirror symmetry mode on a vessel in the VAB Fixed: the "Communotron 16-S" antenna appears inverted when placed in mirror symmetry mode on a vessel in the VAB Fixed: Max Impact statistic shows twice in part info tooltip [Original Bug Report] Environments Cloud lighting and shading improvements, including: application of atmosphere transmittance to cloud lighting, unification of ambient light calculation for raymarched, baked, and scaled clouds, recalculation of average position for clouds to accomodate density, updating scattering to use average/weighted position estimated from density samples, moving some code into functions, and separating cloud shadows out of scaled cloud shader and into a new shader that renders below the atmosphere Changed lighting at sunsets by using atmospheric scattering to soften lighting - sunsets are now realistically red on Kerbin, blue on Duna, etc. Improved atmospheric scattering integration on terrain and clouds to make atmospheres softer and horizons smoother Improved cloud blending with the atmosphere Implementation of biome and triplanar mesh bucketing for terrain rendering Optimized cloud shadows Adjusted dynamic resolution calculation for clouds Increased Eve's atmosphere scatter height Fixed: wrong scale on KSC light colliders creating log spam Fixed: decals not visible at higher altitudes above Eeloo Fixed: water is invisible when landing at a specific location on the surface of Eve Fixed: Bop's polar crater appears distorted in map and tracking station Fixed: terrain spikes at Bop's south pole Fixed: lighting is not consistent from all camera angles when viewing the surface near the poles of several celestial bodies [Original Bug Report] Fixed: lighting is inconsistent at Laythe’s north pole [Original Bug Report] Fixed: lighting is inconsistent at Vall’s north pole [Original Bug Report] Updated mipmap settings for scaled planet textures to improve appearance Fixed: seen from orbit, Jool's surface disappears while medium quality clouds are enabled EVA Fixed: attaching a decoupler that creates a fairing too close to the Mk1 command pod prevents Kerbals from exiting vessel Improved self shadowing on kerbal skin materials Improved smoothness of the blink animation Flight & Map Implemented conic section highlighting when cursor hovers over trajectories in Map view Fixed: orbital decay fix causes vessels to travel sideways above Eeloo at certain altitudes [Original Bug Report] Fixed: EVA Kerbals are unable to move along vessels via magboots or ladders while in Orbit [Original Bug Report] Fixed: discarded stage's orbit changes when timewarping with acceleration Fixed: joints break when decoupling parts on vessels with physicsless parts.

SAS is intended to work with Gridfins in the future, but for now they are manual control only.

This issue the same as the one causing SAS wobble? I assume that's still a thing within this version as well? 20 hours ago, Intercept Games said: Fixed: lighting is inconsistent at Laythe’s north pole [Original Bug Report] Fixed: lighting is inconsistent at Vall’s north pole [Original Bug Report] I'd assume this is a just a typo, but aren't these missing the rocket image ( @Dakota, tagging because I've seen you be the one to correct things like this in the past)?

ShadowZone Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 As usual, I took the liberty to compile some statistics. And here they are: 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% 0.1.5 86 11 13% Community column is calculated based on how many items in the list have a rocket icon.

Vl3d Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 There seem to be some impactful bug fixes in this patch. I'm going in to test. Thank you dev team! 21 hours ago, Intercept Games said: Fixed: decoupled stage without probe core/pod is controllable This also had a community bug report. Might be others on the list. 21 hours ago, Intercept Games said: Fixed: rover wheels lose steering at low velocity Really curious about this fix. The wheel bugs really break gameplay.

If you experience a bug, fill out the bug report forum. Anth and I will merge new reports that already have archived threads and bring them back out. For now this is the best way for this workflow to work, though we know it's a headache. Hopefully will have news about new K.E.R.B. processes soon. 9 minutes ago, Vl3d said: This also had a community bug report. Might be others on the list! If you can find it, I'll add it to the notes!
