Useful feature removed from .23

[CommandantAce]

Any one else find the missing parts list when loading a craft in .22 useful? In .23 it just locks the ship and provides no useful info. If you are constantly testing add-ons and crafts it was really handy. Upgrading to .23, then the add-on updates has been a pain.

Missing parts list? What missing parts list?

[TheWanderer]

didnt realise this was gone.

it would pop up and say "you are missing part whatever" if you tried to load up a craft which you didnt have the right mod parts for

[WillHop]

I seriously have no idea what you are talking about. Is there a screen shot or something? I've had a couple of times when I have deleted a mod and it says 'this ship is missing parts a, b and c' and then it deletes the ship, is that it?

Currently I think if you have a .craft file with modded parts that are not available and you load ship at sph or vab, that ship is grayed out and says its missing parts. Before you would be able to load it but it would tell you your are missing the following files...

Yes, I missed that too, but also liked the disable buttons, so I know what is not working. The solution could be merge the two things, gray out the crafts with parts missing, and once you click on it, a dialog informs what is broken.

yeah I liked that it informed you of which parts where missing, although I think "list" is a rather grand name for it, wasn't it just a series of error messages and you had to click ok for each part?

Would be nice if they could add in a missing parts list for craft, both for craft that have parts that are not yet unlocked and for missing mod parts.

The game will still do this. In the Alt + F2 menu, when you try to load an incompatible craft straight from the runway or the launchpad, the game will tell you what parts were not found. Hope this helps!

I just wish we could delete these ships in-game.

Sometimes I want to get rid of a mod and not have to go through and manually delete the ships that still have some of the parts afterwards.
