Where'd the monolith go?


Recommended Posts

I recently noticed that the Kerbin monolith at  20° 40′ 15″ N 146° 29′ 48″ W  has disappeared, and the facilities there are signifcantly different.

The base's VAB is now the only visible structure (the dish and launch pad are not visible) has been moved to a slightly different location.  The radio dish is there, but is actually inside of the VAB.  And the nearby monolith is not visible at all.

Has anyone else seen this?  Any idea what mod is responsible?  (Things go back to normal if i remove all the mods.)

If you enlarge the planets, sometimes the surface features can be positioned below the ground. Maybe that's it?

I tried that, but haven't been able to spot it.  It wouldn't explain why the other features of the base have been moved around / inside one another.

Why is this in the KSP mod releases?

Because i am pretty sure one of the mods is causing it.  If i remove all mods, it returns to normal.  I was hoping someone had seen this before and would be able to explain which one and why.

Not to be the strict guy here lol but would be nice if you could use this one https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/20-ksp1-mods-discussions/ instead of the Mod Releases one :)

Maybe you should share a screenshot so we don't have to guess what it looks like.

Sure.

So here is the location in Stock.  This is looking eastwards.  The monolith is in the center of the picture, with a purple flag beside it.   In the distance at 672.9m is another flag, marking the location of the secondary launch base "Baikonbanur".

Now here is a picture with various mods added (Parallax2, Scatterer, Eve, etc).  This is now looking to the south-east.  You can see the flag for the monolith in the center of the screen, but the monolith is gone.  The radio dish is also gone.  You can see the same flag that marted the secondary launch base in the background, but the base is clearly in a different location.

And if you move the camera around the right way, you can see that the dish is actually inside of the vab.

I don't object to this but i don't think i am able to move an entire thread.  Can a mod do it?

@Fizz The issue you describe occurs when you have Parallax Continued installed (and all it's dependencies) . If you remove Parallax the site will be back to normal. 

More details here: 

 

Unfortunately it is not just Parallax Continued.  The screenshot i'm using is from Parallax 2.  But it's probably the same error.

But at least it's not just me... heh.  I will look into KerbinSideRemastered- looks interesting.  Does your patch also restore the monolith?  Thanks!

@Fizz Sadly no. The monolith and other features of the KSC2 site are Stock game items. My patch only fixes the runway that is part of the Kerbal Konstructs build for the KerbinSideRemastered mod (and my contract pack)

 

OK.  I wonder what it is about Parallax that modifies that site so much.  I've checked all my other monoliths on Kerbin and other planets / moons, and none of them are affected.  The Baikerbanur site is the only one.  Does anyone know why Parallax does this?
