Drew Kerman Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 two more issues for you, @Arrowstar: First up, recall that issue I posted about a while back with the Revs on TA coasts resetting to 0 but actually still equaling 1? Well, I have a mission file for you that has it. Haven't worked on replicating it unless you can't figure it out from the MAT file. Just open the coast event and you'll see the TA rev at 0 even though you can see it's coasting through one orbit. Second issue is pretty serious. If you happen to forget you have a MA window open (buried under some other windows and you've been away from the PC for a while) and go to open it from the KSPTOT menu, it will reload MA and wipe anything already loaded. Don't worry didn't lose any unsaved data, but one could. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry didn't lose any unsaved data, but one could. Both issues have been resolved for the next release. Just a heads up everyone, I did (very briefly!) try out KSPTOTConnect in KSP 1.2 yesterday and it looks like the "create bodies file" works and the "real time system" stuff kinda works but returns wonky values. So you can probably get away with using KSPTOTConnect in 1.2 for now, but the official compatibility release will be in KSPTOT v1.5.6. EDIT: I think I've fixed the KSPTOTConnect issues. I'll put out a new pre-release soon with the updated KSPTOT and KSPTOTConnect. Edited September 15, 2016 by Arrowstar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arrowstar Posted September 18, 2016 Author Share Posted September 18, 2016 Hi everyone, I've finished packing up the latest prerelease for KSPTOT v1.5.6. The changes are as follows: Update for compatibility with KSP v1.2. KSPTOTConnect is only compatible with KSP 1.2 as of this release! Added stock comm max range model (sqrt(r1*r2)) to Mission Architect comm network analysis tool. Resolved issue with Mission Architect where trying to open up two sessions of MA would kill the first session without any prompting. Resolved rare issue with Mission Architect where the number of revolutions in a coast would be computed incorrectly when opening the Edit Coast dialog box. KSPTOT Real Time System now uses skin temperature in the thermal console screen, as opposed to the interior temperature. You may download the pre-release at the following location: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/29126891/KSPTOT_v156_prerelease3.zip Please let me know if you find any bugs or have any questions. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Kerman Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 crap you know what I keep meaning to request? That the MA save dialog make use of the fact that MA now knows when a file has changes (asterisk shows in the window title). Unless the save confirmation is performing another purpose when you go to open/create a new file or close MA, it'd be nice not to have to clear it every time when there's been no changes to save.

Unless the save confirmation is performing another purpose when you go to open/create a new file or close MA, it'd be nice not to have to clear it every time when there's been no changes to save. Yeah, I could probably do that. It's a good suggestion. EDIT: Implemented for next release. Edited September 19, 2016 by Arrowstar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilph Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Quote In theory that should work, yes. Give it a try and let me know how it goes. OK..will try it in the next few days. Wanted to report a minor nit...in the rendezvous screen, at the bottom, where you as for the start time for the calculation, you added an import from KSP menu, which works great. But, when you import, the time text underneath does not update. No real impact other than cosmetic. As a potential feature request, I'd like to see an "EZ Mode" option for the porkchop/burn process. If I understand correctly, you currently calculate results to be put into MA to be further optimized. But, not all missions require the complexity of MA. Most of the time, I want to get from body A to body B, and want the best transfer window. You calculate based on depart, arrival, or depart/arrival, which is better than other tools. But, the transfer rarely uploads correctly to get the intercept. In short, you can compute trajectories better than Mechjeb and KAC, but that accuracy doesn't seem to easily available for simple porkchop transfers. Does this make sense?

Thanks Hey there, so KSPTOT is actually designed to work the way you described. The probable cause to your troubles is that you're not telling KSPTOT your orbit epoch and mean anomaly at that epoch. If you don't supply this, KSPTOT simply assumes that your orbit will work out such that the spacecraft will be at the right point in space at the right time to perform the burn. Since this is rarely true, the uploaded maneuvers don't work out. They will work out (or they should anyway) if you give KSPTOT your epoch and mean anomaly. Does that help any? 8 hours ago, Sigma88 said: @Arrowstar if you are still having issues with sigma binary feel free to contact me, I will be happy to provide you any information you might need on the mod Thanks!

It does, but I have tried it both including and not including, and never seemed to make a difference. But, I will now be more careful in recording steps and will post if it happens again. I did have a case once where I kept the calculated maneuver that did not intercept, quit the game, restarted next day and the maneuver had an intercept. Will try to do that process again to see if it's just a display bug. You always help...much appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Yeah, definitely, if you can provide me with a bodies.ini file, the settings/inputs you're using in the KSPTOT application, and a stock scenario file, I'll take a look.

Gilph Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 (edited) OK, have some data. this is with latest prerelease on 1.1.3 with older connect file (which works fine) 1. Recreated and loaded bodies.ini 2. Selected my space station that I want to send from Minmus to Mun 3. Calculated porkchop 4. Calculated Departure Burn 5. Uploaded Maneuver (8 days in future) Note it's not even close 6 Stopped and restarted game - no difference 7. Warped to 2h before maneuver, deleted maneuver, and redid everything. No difference Bodies.ini and TOT log: https://1drv.ms/f/s!AigvIEvgjetqikNBLmuB5BXhIPUS Thanks Edited September 23, 2016 by Gilph fix link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Kerman Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 (edited) can we have the ability to directly edit bodies that are included in a MAT file? Right now it's a bit indirect as you have to load the bodies that you want first, then open MA to be able to save those bodies with the mission file. It would be nice if there was a dialog box with a list of bodies loaded from the current .ini file and you just Ctrl+click to select the ones you want MA to have loaded for the current save file. Might be another way for people to optimize mission plotting as well, like how you can restrict SOI search. Also I think any New Projects should load the currently selected .ini file, not just use whatever body data was loaded from the last MAT file Edited December 24, 2016 by Drew Kerman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Kerman Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 ooh, @Arrowstar had another thought - while it's hard if not impossible to show the position of other spacecraft like you can with body markers in the main diagram, perhaps there can be an option to only render 0.5% of their orbits from the current event UT, which is enough to be visible and give a good indication of the position of the spacecraft. Here's how it looks in action with a Delta Time Coast using Plock from OPM: Definitely visible, even in the small default diagram. And I'm mainly asking because it would be great to be able to turn this: into a scatter plot of locations like this: (also, slightly related to my previous request, that image with all the asteroid plots has a planet in it I don't want to show up in published diagrams for KSA, which is why it would be cool to be able to remove it - and even the outer planets to move the diagram view inwards by default - without having to re-enter all the asteroid data... but also in general make it easier than having to delete a body from the config, reload in KSPTOT and then save in MA then restore the body in the config file) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Kerman Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I still can't believe there isn't a way to export Matlab plots to the web for ppl to use them interactively like I can in the Figure1 window :/ Been checking every few months via Google hoping... did I miss something?

Drew Kerman Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 hope you didn't get turned off by my requests @Arrowstar - I know they can really be a bit "out there" at times Really excited for the semi-orbit rendering idea tho, I've been looking for years for an easy way to create a scatter plot of asteroid locations throughout the Kerbol system. But if it can't be done I'll just have to return to the drawing board once again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Kerman Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 back with another wish list item - looks like Other Spacecraft orbits can't handle hyperbolic trajectories. That would be nice to have as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
