OvenProofMars Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 Any ETA on the small update you announced yesterday? Apologies if I am rushing you, feel free to take your time.Github is being annoying, will be up soon I hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OvenProofMars Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) Wow! This is really neat. I love the idea of having stars orbit some other object (Galaxy core, great attractor, maybe other stars/ star clusters?)If I may suggest something when it comes to your distribution chanel:You should really not include the .zip file in the repository but rather use the "releases" page. Like this: https://github.com/SpaceKookie/Poke/releasesDidn't even know that existed thanks for the tip.Edit1: yeah I think the .zip files are really causing some problems on github Edited July 24, 2014 by OvenProofMars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OvenProofMars Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 Are you going to use PF:CE's terribly inefficient way of generating planets or the proper way using your own PSystem?I descrived the correct process at: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/65401-WIP-PlanetFactory-CE?p=1294503&viewfull=1#post1294503If you guys need help with the planet part, just shoot me a PM and I'll do my best to assist ^^I'll probably take you up on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostElement Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I assume this was possible because of the 64bit update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OvenProofMars Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 New version is up should work a lot better. Contains a complete rework of the mod structure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OvenProofMars Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 I'm having 2 issues; one is gamebreaking, the other is minor.The gamebreaking bug is that occasionally the celestial bodies stop orbiting their parent completely. Fiddling with time warp seems to fix it, but I usually realize the issue when it's too late.The minor bug is that sometimes in the map screen, the Kerbin system appears at the center of the galaxy where the black hole should be. Zooming in on Kerbol seems to fix it.The orbiting problem is enough of a gamebreaker that I had to uninstall it. I'll be eager to reinstall once these issues are fixed.Yes, the orbitdrivers are not liking these kind of distances for some reason. My new version shoudl be more stable though.

Mekan1k Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Question... Why doesn't the star Kerbol and other stars have atmospheres? The sun does, and it is called the Corona. Kerbol's atmosphere should extend several thousand kilometers over it's surface, right? I wounder if there is another mod we could use that would determine that....

No real atmosphere is there as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OvenProofMars Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 If some of you could try using it with a large savegame (after backing it up of course) and let me know if any problems arise I would really appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aftokinito Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 If some of you could try using it with a large savegame (after backing it up of course) and let me know if any problems arise I would really appreciate it.I've tested it with my DMP multiplayer save offline, which has around 300 vessels on almost all the default celestial bodies.Everything is working surprisingly fine and, ironically, the 3-4 vessels that were on Kerbol escape are now orbiting around the black hole on the correct orbit.Great work!!!!

LostElement Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 That's why my game crashes when I launch it with 64bit. Well actually it freezes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well actually it freezes.Everything is working perfectly fine for me on .24 64 bits, your problem is most likely due to other mods.I personally found that Final Frontier does not like multiple star systems (it does not like new celestial bodies actually).
