Crater Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I hit a weird bug last night.Apparently if you don't actually remember to place the parachute onto your rocket, then it doesn't deploy during reentry, and Jeb gets very upset with you (briefly).

Starstrider42 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 For a lithobraking specialist, wouldn't that be a feature, not a bug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 ummm.... i have a stack chute and a drouge on, and it's claiming that 9 tons is too much for it. I find that hard to believe, especially with kevlar chutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwaster Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Chris, question: When it asks (in the calculator section) how many chutes I'm using and it's a triple chute. Should I enter three or is it still technically considering it a single chute?Example, 8 radial chutes set to triple. Am I putting 8 or 24? Are the triples graphical only?

Cleric2145 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) What would be causing my chutes to be acting strangely? When I set up the settings in the editor window, and click "Apply to Symmetry" the other parts don't get changed, and usually have blank data entry boxes (Spare Chutes, Pre-Dep Alt, etc.). In addition, I can set my chutes to "Only deploy going down=False", but after hitting apply, a right-click, Show Info tells me it's still "Going Down=True", and in-game usage reinforces that. My chutes only open going down, making my LES quick-chutes rather ineffective.Is this just a conflict of an older version, or is there some mod conflict somewhere? I'm about due for a total reinstall anyways, but I figured I'd look into common solutions.EDIT: I'm reinstalling RealChutes to see if this fixes it, but I believe I was still at 1.0.x. I'll let you know what happens.EDIT2: So the mustGoDown will now 'stick' when set, and that was really the more aggravating of the two problems due to the lack of workarounds. The symmetry parts still have totally empty fields when I Apply to Symmetry, though. Edited April 10, 2014 by Cleric2145 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Hunt Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I have a weird one for you, apparently, if I attach an inline parachute to a decoupler, it will not work. You can't click on it, and it disappears from the staging tree on load to the pad. I tried attaching decouplers to either end of the part and got the same result. here's my KSP log:https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/18212815/KSP.logI also had an issue with the camera gradually moving it's focal point downward as the rocket climbed, until I can't even see the rocket, but I'm not sure that's related.

Capt. Hunt Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I also posted that one in the bugs forum, I just mentioned here it because it's probably mentioned in that log file, because I had both bugs on the same flight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The symmetry parts still have totally empty fields when I Apply to Symmetry, though.That first "bug" is only an aesthetics bug. It won't show anything but the values are there anyway. It's not in my field, KSP is the only thing that handles part copying, and apparently it's too dumb to properly initiate the components. So yeah, the values are applying normally, ignore it.I'd edit the OP to show this, but I'm getting 500'sI have a weird one for you, apparently, if I attach an inline parachute to a decoupler, it will not work.

I'll need your output_log.txtEDIT: I scrolled through it and it doesn't even seem any RealChute part was even present in any of the flights of this log.

Deleting the stock MM file fixed the behavior. Unfortunately, I don't have that probe anymore so I can't reproduce the bug.I've heard players get the same bug with other mod combinations (thread here), including people who didn't have RC installed at all, so I'm guessing it's a general problem with mod interactions, not something specific to RC.

Drew Kerman Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 They are graphic only, this is why I added a (parts) next to the field name.Actually, it says "Parachutes used (parachutes)" - hence the confusion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John FX Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Chris, I just wanted to say thank you for the effort you put into these chutes.All I see is a vista of bug reports and hassle for yourself so I thought it would be nice for you to have a post that just said thanks.So,Thank you, stupid_chris for Realchutes.Your chutes have been wonderful and I hope they become stock soon (if that is what you would want) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
