KCreator Posted December 1, 2014 Author Share Posted December 1, 2014 If you save an alteration, scaledspace (map view model) *may* not update. In order to make sure an alteration has been saved, make sure to view the planet in question from a low orbit. The checkbox next to the save button (export textures) *should* allow scaledspace to update. but this WILL hang the game. Even if it looks like it crashed, just give it time to generate the scaledspace texture. If all works well, it should load into the map view. If not, I will see if I can get it working...

Dooz Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Suggestion for terraforming parts: make it harder to terraform planets closer to the sun and once terraformed they will get hotter and a part that stablizes terraformed planets way up the tech tree.

Borisbee Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Just wondering if anyone has had luck adding new PQS mods to planets. I wanted to give minmus some craters but upon adding the crater mod and updating, the planet disappears completely and nothing brings it back. I'v tried this on several different planets and they all seem to have the same effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I've made some progress; when updating Scaledspace with the export button checked, a CFG-file is created within the Kittopia folder with all the information about the planet. But when restarting the game, the planet appears in its 'original' state. The CFG-file starts with "// Customdata". I vaguely remember that "//" seems to disable code in a CFG-file?

Proot Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Someone could say me how to lock the rings vÃÂa .cfg?I love the plugin but the GUI is pretty wild for me... I prefer to set and modify my values manually. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer to set and modify my values manually. Thanks!Sure, the parameter should be "LockRot", simply add that underneath the "Tilt" parameter. I'm sorry about my awful GUI, though.@Bekiekutmoar: The comment on the top is automatically generated by the confignode class I am using. And shouldn't effect the loading.

Bekiekutmoar Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Thanks ... ! Btw, I've found out the comment in question doesn't have an influence on how a celestial object appears.

Tynton Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 (edited) Hello, all. I've came to this thread today to discuss a bug with this mod that has been probably not told of before, but my apologies if it had. Has anyone noticed a bug when re-coloring a planet's surface (ex. I made Eve's surface golden yellow to look sandy), but when I start the game, (after exiting it), its surface color reverts to its usual purple. I'd appreciate to have this issue fixed, if possible! Reference photo.Also, I've noticed another bug associated with making a celestial body orbit another. I can't get an encounter with the modded planet. I'd just appreciate to shed light on these bugs, and I can't thank you enough for making a mod as fantastic as this, KCreator!

Unicron Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I need help, I really don't know how to really comphrend this mod. What I want to do is make the Mun look like a habbitble world by adding an Atmosphere, an Ocean, and change the textures. But I just don't know how to do that properly. For starters I would like to know how to add in an atmosphere, because I can only get in some weird pixaliated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chezburgar7300 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Good day,I was wondering if it would be possible to add a ring that emits light to the game in the hopes of adding a realistic accretion disk to the Black Hole in the StarSystems WIP over on the Add-On Development Section.

Tynton Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 @KCreator, I've uploaded the files to MediaFire. Although, those are my first uploads that I've done. Although, hopefully you can look through the programming in these files (I've edited all of the orbits to add seasons, but the problem seems that the planets turn perfectly spherical (upon restarting KSP). Although, this doesn't bother me (unless it's Gilly or Bop) very much. I'd appreciate it though, if I could attempt to move Kerbin and/or Duna to Jool to become Jool's moons...and possibly taking some of it's moons somewhere else. Although the idea was inspired by Alternis Kerbol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlonzoTG Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 =\I tried to use this mod, I got the gui to pop up but I couldn't get past "no planet selected". I tried doing it from the tracking station, from the flight mode, and from the map mode, I could not figure out how to select a planet or what could be missing/broken. Simply focusing on a planet and pressing buttons in sequential or random order had no effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCreator Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 My internet will be down for a while, and I have not gotten a chance to download 0.90 beta, so unfortunately, this will not be fixed any time soon :/.I will try to get to it ASAP.edit:I recently had my internet problem resolved, and I recompiled for .90. The UI now opens again, I apologise for the inconvenience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptRobau Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Thanks for the update to 0.90. Rings can finally be added again, but they appear black/dark once I launch a vessel (they look fine if before you launch you check them out using the Map View). Using CTRL+P to edit the rings in-game also doesn't do anything. None of the things there (unlit, inclinination, etc.) do anything. Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong?

KCreator Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 Please help me ! I can't manage to select a planet !Sorry for not answering sooner; to select a planet, open the UI and click select planet, a list of planets (as buttons) should appear in the lower half of the UI, click on the one you want to edit, and it should "lock" the planet in for editing.I admin that this isn't exactly the most intuitive system, but it works, and I cant really do much else.edit: I'm not entirely sure if the ring colour option works anymore, can anyone can confirm this?

strideknight Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 This is a pretty amazing mod, thanks man. One question, how do planetary particles work? I was viewing the source in the tracker and when i hit spawn particles nothing happened. I don't have a probe there so I didn't actually view it, so I wasn't sure how that worked, but the concept sounds awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holzfallen Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 This might have been mentioned, but sorry for not reading through the whole threat. I just came from nightshift.How about adding very expensive parts and change the way that this works throught the parts like in spore. This would make it awesome. You will get a feeling of accomplishment when after a few mission's and a "small" resource cost you got the planet or moon terraformed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
