I have one since youtube coerced me into ... well I wasnt even logged in, but here goes google ...

Thank you, it worked.

Some screens to show you what i'm working on. It's heavily based on Action on the Fly by macbernick updated by Pontiac (Thanks both of you !) which i try to interface with my mod back-end.

I had feedback about the UI which was way too heavy for some, so i put my mod on a diet and he's back slimmer than ever. All is managed through the part context click (please 0.23 don't mess too much with that ! =D). I plan to keep both UI and made them as independent as possible for those who only want only one UI. But switch from one or the other will be possible in-game easily.

Now screens !

It's mainly functional, just need to polish things a little. I hope to release that soon.

Oups ! Damn imgur settings. Fix'd sorry.

Everything I've liked about Actions on the Fly plus more

[therealcrow999]

Yeah I hope 0.23 doesn't mess too much up. I just got all my mods setup. It seems like every time I get them set up another update comes out. Oh well.

[SirJulio]

Well, for the action group logic i don't think there will be any problem. But for the context menu, that's another story. I've seen some footage of kerbalcon and it seems, that they modified the context menu (at least the global look of it). We'll see.

[therealcrow999]

I took some pictures and posted them on another thread. The GUI is looking very nice especially in VAB and SPH.

Yeah I'm wondering about context too with other mods. If it's a big problem I see that as the only hurtle to overcome.

This is a must-have! Maybe include a slider for screen coordinates so you can leave the window where you want.

[capran]

Great idea! But one thing I really want to see is a simple on-screen GUI for each action group button, say a horizontal or vertical bar with ten squares that you can press on screen to start the action, or right-click to edit or rename. Let's say:

[AG1] [AG2] [AG3] ...

You could rename them from AG1 to, say, Main Engine Toggle or Solar Panel Toggle. And...these settings would be saved with the craft.

I was thinking about something similar, yes. I need to finish the new ui system, wait for 0.23 release to fix possible incompatibilities and i will work on that.

Awesome! Can't wait!

There is a on-screen controls mod that adds action group buttons... Can't remember the name at present.

[SirJulio]

1.2.0.0 released :

* 0.23 compatibility. Nothing changed.

* Can now add or remove a part and all the symmetry counter parts with a single button.

* Added tooltip for all buttons.

* Now, when the list is empty, the bottom buttons are only activated if there is parts linked to that action group.

Hi,

is there a way to move the toolbar? I couldn't find any...

[SirJulio]

Click on the arrow to the right side of the toolbar, and select the option "Unlock move". Do the same thing to lock it when you're done.

[Tic-Tac]

It doesn't really do anything if I click on that "arrrow" (well, it doesn't even look like an arrow on my screen...)

[SirJulio]

Look at the video on that post (the toolbar plugin thread). The click area may be hard to found. =)

[Tic-Tac]

I restarted the game and now it was clickable, thanks !

[SirJulio]

Good to hear. I hope you like it.

I will release a new version very soon, to update to Toolbar 1.2.

Does this mod save the action groups persistently through craft changes and restarts/reloads?

As in, if I set a group of solar panels to group one, shut down KSP, restart KSP, go back to that save and craft, will the solar panels still be tied to group one? I don't remember AotF having that ability.

Yes.

Due to how KSP handle actiongroups in the actual build, there is no such thing as temporary assignement. The moment you assign, say, your solar panel to action group 01, that's it. You can even desinstal AGM and restart your game, your panel will always be linked to custom 01. Even if you take your persistent file and give it to a friend.

Same thing, if you build your ship, assign some parts to custom action groups, the mod will detect it and show them to you.

[Tic-Tac]

Good to hear. I hope you like it.

I don't like it.

I love it.

it's just the most useful mod ever when it comes to space stations, if you don't remember which part of the station had which solar panels etc mapped to which key, you can edit it in space.

Just awesome.

Version 1.3.0.0 released. See first post for more infos.

Hope you will all like it.
