Solodric Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 First off, I wanted to thank all of the devs working on KSP multiplayer. It's an ambitious and awesome idea. Just tried to start up a cooperative career game with a friend of mine. Unfortunately, we're suffering from the shared-reputation/kerbal deaths/lost vessels bugs, and to a pretty extreme extent. Even when we land vessels and recover them successfully, they sometimes count as destroyed, kerbals count as dead, reputation gets decreased, etc., Randomly, the kerbals may or may not come back to life (reputation isn't being refunded), and we see random explosions on the launch pad when nothing is going on there. No idea what's going on. Caylis, would it be possible to get an upload of the DMP client forked version with your fixes (and any other important career-mode fixes or attempts at fixes released since the last official update)? The game is currently unplayable for us, and navigating the Git is proving difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonu Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Kerbal DMP was never meant to be used with career mod and in past versions of KSP it was changed to some extend. The career multiplayer is higly experimental and contain bugs. The developer of DMP Darklight is now cooperating with us, developers of LMP or LunaMultiplayer which is overally complete rewrite of the DMP with improvements and in future probably some mod support or API. We haven't support mods or career yet, but I suggest watching our progress. Have fun! Ave! Toonu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solodric Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Thanks for the heads-up on all of that, Toonu! Honestly, we would be satisfied with a much simpler multiplayer than what DMP is currently doing in some regards. The expectation going in was that we would not all be able to fly vessels simultaneously, but rather one person would fly while others observed/worked on new ships, etc,. and all resources (science, funds, ore, etc.,) would be totally shared, basically just a single science program with multiple administrators. It seems to me that that would be much easier to implement, overall - especially if one player is specified as the host, and their files are used by all. Thoughts?

LazDaUber Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 (edited) Hello, I don't know if this is an issue with the file or my pc, but multiple scans on my pc have said that the DMP Server executable has a virus or can harm my pc. I'm asking if this is a common problem that is nothing to worry about or if the file has been compromised Thanks for reading Edit: Never mind, it was just Windows Defender being dumb Edited January 13, 2018 by LazDaUber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KOCOUR Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 DMP mod was in the friends folder copy. Anyway, the problem is solved, it was a mistake on the server side. It is customized dedicated server hosted by 3rd party, and they have no knowledge about KSP or DMP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problemless Mods Wanter Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Hello, I don't know if anyone is aware but the wiki page in https://d-mp.org/ does not load. Is there a link where I can find the full list of server commands like backup etc.... I also need a further explaination for autoDekessler feature.

Problemless Mods Wanter Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Hi again; in my settings cheats are set to "=False" but the menu still appears in debug window. And Funding, Rep and Science cheats are still working. Is this the way it is or am i missing something. I really want to disable those too.

godarklight Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) @Smart Parts Wanter autoDekessler simply removes all vessels that have the type "debris". NukeKSC removes all the vessels around the KSC, things get pretty laggy around there otherwise on busy servers, but by default I think only autoDekessler is enabled. It's been a while since I've checked For everyone: Sorry about the server list everyone, VITAS has been pretty scarce and I didn't realise I had the ability to log on and fix it. Yay SSH keys. Both the official list, and my backup list should now work fine. Also, the forums are a pretty terrible way to get a hold of me currently, I've been most active in the LMP discord, but I will also reply to anyone in the DMP channel on irc.esper.net We also do have a discord server, my intention was to start fixing DMP in places it has broken, and get some people testing out. But I'm not exactly sure how my motivation is for the mod at the moment, and LMP is starting to look promising Edited February 26, 2018 by godarklight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthias123 Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Hello ! first , sorry for my weak english ! x°) I think i have some kind of solution for the famous " Warping paradox , problem " ... with this " solution " we could play without any problem and in a perfect synch world with others players.. ( i think ) We use mostly the warping to warp at a certain point in the univers, for exemple : I'm orbiting the earth and i need to land on Duna ( Mars ) so i use timewarp to align my orbit to encounter Duna, Here, the solution "without" Timewarp.... = Have a script that "calculate" Appx the distance and Fuel we have + our orbit and trajectory, and time, then it show us some other orbit that we can choose, then if i need to go further but i dont have any fuel left in my main stage , i just Stage again to use the upperpart of my rocket and so on... ( teleportation ) It's hard to explain and to give more info, but the main idea is : show a trajectory on the map that show us ,how far we can go with the actual stage ( not the full rocket ) and select the aera , and teleport us to the point , a other good exemple : I'm flying toward the space center, i got 50/100 fuel and i'm at 50Km distance, it would take me ( for EXEMPLE ) 30Min, What do i do without Warp? , i just AIM to the direction of the center , and on the map view ( from above ) it show me a path that i can choose, and i just select where i need to go and it will teleport me and use the fuel that i need in theory.. The showing trajectory look like the mod called : [1.3.1] Trajectories v2.0.0 (2018-02-15) : atmospheric predictions. it would require some test but i think it's the best solution without using warp ? . of course we will encounter some probleme, but minor one , like colision, if i teleport where a other player are, but we could make a script that will just teleport us at a safe distance..

godarklight Posted March 20, 2018 Author Share Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) Version v0.2.5.0 now supports KSP 1.4.1 I've had another stab at positioning, hopefully things aren't *as* broken as they were EDIT: I released v0.2.5.1, the extrapolator has been broken forever but never got a lot of testing with a proper amount of latency, and you can turn it off if you want to trade accuracy for less explosions, you'll see them from where they sent the update instead of where they should be, this is with a second of lag: Demonstrating the tradeoff on ground (0.5s lag): Edited March 21, 2018 by godarklight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godarklight Posted March 21, 2018 Author Share Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) Or, I could do interpolation instead, which is now the default in v0.2.5.2: It *should* be this smooth so long as the combined player lag is under a second, in any case there's options, under options->advanced. Extrapolation with rotation: Steps the plane to the current time, rotating the acceleration through the stepping (Unsure if this is a good idea). Extrapolation without rotation: DMP's old predictor method, but fixed with stepping (and not broken math). Disabled: Puts the vessel where the update says it is, unless you have a very stable latency this is almost certainly going to cause position jitter. Interpolation, 1 second delay (the default): Allows 1 seconds worth of updates to build up, so DMP can smoothly place the craft between the two points. Interpolation, 3 seconds delay: As above, but 3 seconds. You may have to use this if you have Australian Internet (TM). I'm going to recommend Extrapolation (either mode) for LAN play, and Interpolation 1 second delay for internet play. This only affects surface updates (which are anything under 10km) Edited March 21, 2018 by godarklight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godarklight Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 Released v0.2.5.3, I realised that orbital updates were getting delayed when they shouldn't have been - orbital updates are extrapolated anyway and have no reason to be held back. Also I had an attempt at the load/unload vessel flicker I saw recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverware Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I've been running a DMP server at home for some friends, and I thought you guys might like this. The above is a snippet from a website running off of live(ish) data, pulled from the files on disk. More to do yet, I do plan on adding maps of each body locating the individual vessels. And I might even add a 3D visualizer showing you the ships in a Map like format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jollyfellow Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I would like to ask, as 1.4.2 has broken the latest version of DMP, if there will either be an update to DMP soon to fix it, or if someone can help me revert to 1.4.1 as I can't find any way to do so...

godarklight Posted March 29, 2018 Author Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) @njbrown09 LunaMultiPlayer has essentially made my set up my dev environment so I can help dagger out, but I figured I may as well implement anything I learn back into DMP. It's also that I didn't want to leave DMP as broken as it was when it finally dies @Jollyfellow way ahead of you, DMP 0.2.5.4 Edited March 29, 2018 by godarklight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
