sarbian Posted October 19, 2014 Author Share Posted October 19, 2014 Recompiled for current FAR / NEAR version. I still did not have the time to automate it yet.

Poofer Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 hmm does this still need dev version? or will the main version have support soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Net-burst Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 FAR updated once more. New version is 0.14.3.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tynach Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 It's been a while since FAR was updated, and this plugin does not seem to work. When will the new version come in?Alternatively, is there any way to compile the plugin myself from inside Linux? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarbian Posted October 31, 2014 Author Share Posted October 31, 2014 it seems it needs more than a recompile with the current FAR. You ll have to wait for me to be back home, so around mid next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonaBabii Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Hey sarbian Sorry to bother but I noticed something now as I found the new updated file and went to update it; with the previous version of MechJeb + NEAR patch I could actually go to MechJeb's Smart s.a.s. and use the buttons like Kill ROT and SURF (though using Kill ROT would always pull my nose up very very slowly, but hell it worked better than just using a normal s.a.s. D:), but now with this new version (updated today?) using the Kill ROT button and SURF acts as if I didn't have this patch installed at all D: I wonder if it's something I did or something went wrong with the updated file?

MonaBabii Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) Sure thing, sorry about that! I'm still new to heavily modding my game and still bad at the game altogether lol, though to counter-act those things I try to make sure I read the main posts and a few extra comments when downloading a mod I'm using the latest dev build of MechJeb and the latest version of NEAR.Here's the log file compressed in a .7zip archive:Log File.And here's a couple pictures of the plane in game while Kill ROT active (well, one with and one without, for whatever it's worth):---------------------------What I did before grabbing the log file: Fire up the game, resume, go straight into the SPH, load my ship, launch, take off using regular SAS and then turned Kill ROT in flight. Flew for a while with it even after turning back around towards KSC, turned Kill ROT off and landed on the helipad atop the building at KSC. (Not entirely sure what all kind of information the data file will contain so I'm just trying to help as best I can ).To reiterate the issue; whenever using Smart S.A.S. the game acts as if I didn't have the patch on, a.k.a. the plane wobbles like crazy. This didn't happen with the previous version of this patch (I kept the backup). The patch in question being MechJeb + NEAR.

sarbian Posted November 6, 2014 Author Share Posted November 6, 2014 Nov 6 : updated MechJebKMGimbalExt to fix a bug with some enginesgoldenpeach : it makes MJ aware of the engine gimbaling provided by the "Space Shuttle Engines" gimbal.

Gaalidas Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 so, what was the bug? I'd love to know if I was being affected by it... I'm afraid I know too little to notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is also used in B9.So it mean that if I make a rocket with the center of thrust not point upward, mechjeb will take that in account?Will it work with the plugin Sarbian made for the auto-gimbal mod?(the one that was auto-gimballing the engine so that the center of thrust was alway aligned with the center on mass) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarbian Posted November 6, 2014 Author Share Posted November 6, 2014 no, it just means that MJ know how much torque a gimbaled engine give. The AutoGimbal mod only works with the stock gimbal for now.Gaalidas : with some engine you would end up with a reported TWR and thrsut lower than the reality (only in the info windows and not in the stage window). It would lead to more "aggressive" landings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonaBabii Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Hey sarbian Any news on the issue I reported? Does it only happen to me? (have no idea how to read the log I posted). Not trying to rush you or anything, I'm in no rush, specially since the previous NEAR patch works just fine for me was just wondering if the post may have been lost in the previous page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einarr Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Funnily enough, I also had MJ wobble the heck out of any plane in an atmosphere with the latest NEAR patch. I'm moving on to FAR, though, and expect about the same behavior from the FAR patch.MJ tends to overcompensate continuously when steering, leading to oscillations that can become unrecoverable.
