Dragon Rider Capsule [0.23 (2/14/14)

[Horus]

Too many huds to my taste. Also, I've got a weird issue with blue light projected on a launchpad before launch.

[mdapol]

Any update on the KSPI incompatibility?

[techstepman]

checked a few pages back to see if anyone has the same issue...didn't find anything.

I made a new fresh install of the game. Last time(about a week ago) everything was fine.Now I have the issue that the pod doesn't wanna be the first part.i know there is a simple solution to that but I googled around and couldn't find it.can anyone help and tell me how exactly should the part.cfg be?

[blackheart612]

Wow, you mean 'couldn't be first part of the vessel'? Strange.. Tried redownloading latest?

[techstepman]

yeah...this is strange...decided to delete everything and reinstall.had some problems with other parts from other mods...must be some plugin messing things up.will try every plugin I downloaded one by one to find what caused this.the part.cfg looked ok.

[K3-Chris]

Hmm, wonder why this pod and the real dragonrider are laid out so differently.

[johnnyhandsome]

Hmm, I've downloaded and started up KSP, then tried to load the Dragon Assembled in the VAB, but the craft is greyed out, says it contains locked or invalid parts. Anyone have an idea on how to fix this?

You need to go to the R&D Centre, then unlock the parts there.

[johnnyhandsome]

The parts aren't in the R&D Centre. My tech tree is complete, but I went back through every area and there was no Dragon parts in there

[johnnyhandsome]

If it matters, I"m on a Mac. The craft downloads as Unix Executable File, instead of just a document, which can be edited with a text editor, like every other .craft file. Tried downloading the file again, same thing, no part in R&D, won't load in VAB. Bizarre.

[Mekan1k]

I, cannot, for some reason, access your rather remarkable craft in the R&D center- it won't even show up in the VAB.

because kerbals shape is not exactly humanoid.. they are more like water melons with tiny bodies... which I woefully hate.

lemme look into this.. r&d thing.

I have an issue. I have a couple of other mods installed, and the result is that the right click menu for the dragon capsule is too big and I can't select most of the options, as they get cut off the screen. Anything I can do?

[Makrond]

Drag the mouse around while holding down the middle mouse button. If you drag the camera down a ways by doing this you should be able to see most of the options.

You can also scroll your mouse wheel to zoom out until the entire list is visible.

[Mekan1k]

Anyone know why the dragon pod cannot be the first part of a ship?

[techstepman]

have the same problem...still unresolved so I downloaded this http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/43208-0-22-Oct17-SelectRoot-Set-a-new-root-part-0-22-fixes

[FellipeC]

I would like to suggest that the docking port be a separated part from the capsule. So we can use FASA or another docking port we want.

[Taki117]

For anyone having the issue where The Dragon Cloak and Dragon Pod are messed up!

Pop open the config

Change the "module = " line from "commandPod" to "Part"

Save your work.

Profit.

EDIT: That didn't fix anything...Sorry.

EDIT: I'm a dummy and accidentally overwrote the part config for the Dragon Cloak with the one for the Capsule...I feel dumb.

Both of these mods would be more useful if you made them career compatible, perhaps it's just me but I can't find any parts in the tech tree after installing this mod.

Nowadays people are going to be focused on career, and it's a personal suggestion to make it compatible.

However if this is compatible I would gladly take a notice on that, thank you perhaps it's just the way I installed it.

[NoMrBond]

All the techtree arguments are in the development branch, so the next release should be enabled for career mode

[wasmic]

I found out how to make this compatible with KSPI. First, remove the decoupler module from the Dragon Wings. Then add this to the Dragon Pod:

MODULE
{
name = ModuleDecouple
ejectionForce = 250
explosiveNodeID = trunk
}

That should allow it to function almost like normal, but it works with KSPI.

This is having lots of problems with RSS. Well and 23.5 Quite a shame; this is my favorite capsule.

[CardBoardBoxProcessor]

what issues are people having? :/

[blackheart612]

I find that reaction cute and hilarious, cbbp. I dunno why.
