It seemed like perfect thong for lighting up asteroid surface.

Unfortunetly light globe seems to be broken in current version of ksp.

Whatever i try to do, it always show on right click that its not enough electric charge. I cant deploy it or light up when its attached to vessel and dropped to surface.

It still works fine for me, sounds like you have KAS installed ok, so either you're missing the Vanguard Plugin/ or there is a problem with your installation or a conflict with another of your mods maybe?

[Warpedone]

Does anyone know a location for the vanguard plugin now we've been Cursed??

[Kreuzung]

See my thread.

Both can be found in their respective threads. The Vanguard mod is linked in the post above yours and KAS is available on Curse as well.

I just found this today and can't wait to use these! A very nicely done mod and I hope it works with 0.25.

[Trevisan]

Not working in 0.90: Cant activate the light globe.

Work fine in .90 did you get KAS Mod and Vanguard plugin ?

[B-STRK]

Hopefully a 1.0 update can be sneaked in?

(Alternatively: what can we do to make it work, e.g., KIS functionality?)

[iDisOrder]

is this going to be updated or integrated into KAS or KIS?

[Cocox]

Omg! Didn't know that such part existed. It really needs an update.

[Kerbas_ad_astra]

Here's a patch that makes it attachable to the ground with KIS. (It also fixes the stack node.) Bear in mind that the default connection to the ground is not very strong, so don't use them as road barriers or anything like that!

@PART[Deployable_Light-01]
{

    @node_stack_bottom = 0.0, -0.16, 0.0, 0.0, -1.0, 0.0, 0


    -MODULE[KASModuleGrab]{}

    MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleKISItem
        allowAttachOnStatic = true
    }

    MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleKISPartStatic
    }
}

[iDisOrder]

Here's a patch....

so download the file and then where to I add this patch?

You need to have Deployable Light Globe and Module Manager. Then, copy that patch into a text file (by convention, they're all named something.cfg) in your GameData folder.

and place that .cfg in the same folder as this mod or directly into the GameData folder?

sorry for the silly questions, I never added a patch before

You can put patches anywhere in the gamedata folder.

As MeCripp says, you can put patches anywhere, but I put mine in a "ZZZ_Unofficial_Patches" folder -- that way, I never forget where they are in case I feel like changing them, and they don't get accidentally deleted when I update things.
