Repaint is currently disabled.

babale · April 5, 2015

Oh, I see. So the containers are useless for now?

RoverDude · April 5, 2015

Really?

Don't be a jerk.

They are perfectly useable.

smjjames · April 5, 2015

I think you can still change the colors of the badger container pods, but yeah you can't repaint the contents atm.

And I definetly wouldn't say useless, theres just some applications that they can't be used for and plenty that they can be used for.

babale · April 5, 2015

I'm sorry, I didn't mean that to come off sarcastically. Limitations of a text based format and whatnot. I have great respect for you and all of your mods -- I use almost all of the USI mods and they are definitely some of my favorites.

All I meant was, if I launch a probe core attached to the honeycomb cargo pod or a kontainer, I can't fill it up with anything, can I? There's no right click menu so it doesn't have any capacity to contain materials. I just don't see how to load those particular parts up with any materials.

Am I missing an obvious solution, or should I be using different parts for now?

EDIT: I think I am missing something, or I am experiencing a bug beyond just not being able to change textures. Here is what I see when I put in a kontainer. As you can see, I don't have a way to make it actually contain anything:

smjjames · April 5, 2015

Do you have the CRP thing?

Also, picture of your gamedata folder? Maybe you're missing something.

RoverDude · April 5, 2015

Ok. You had specifically said repaint vs. initial paint. Repaint in the field is disabled. If you can't paint in the VAB, then yes you have a different issue. Screenshot of GameData folder and your USI folder helps.

babale · April 5, 2015

Ah, I understand! Yes I meant I can't paint them in the first place to choose a resource. I guess I figured that there was a default "paint" and that selecting a resource would be "repainting".

Here are pictures of my directory.

RoverDude · April 5, 2015

Get rid if the Karbonite_0.5.5 folder I see in your GameData for starters.

If you use MKS, reinstall 0.22.8, it has the most recent FireSpitter.

babale · April 5, 2015

Ah, that's the problem! Turns out that at some point after I installed Karbonite (by copy-pasting the files) I dragged the folder into my Game Data instead of deleting it and that messed everything up. Fixed that and now I can control the textures, not to mention add items to KAS containers which as it turns out also did not work.

Thanks for the help, and again, my apologies. I didn't realize people were complaining about not being able to repaint once the mission is launched and that what I said could be interpreted as me saying that not having repainting makes the tanks useless. Reading the last few pages shows me why I probably offended you... I didn't mean to!

Great mod, and thanks a ton!

RoverDude · April 5, 2015

No worries, glad it's sorted

iliketrains0pwned · April 6, 2015

I'm really excited about the phase 2 parts. I want to pair it up with Stella or MSS to build a Starship like the Venture Star (Avatar). The only downside is that I can't refuel the Karborundrum tanks when I'm orbiting the other stars.

BioRoots · April 6, 2015

Good day

I notice this in the name = FTT_Kontainer_03 some cost value are missing.

MODULE

{

name = FSfuelSwitch

resourceNames = Ore;Water;Substrate;Minerals;Karbonite;LiquidFuel,Oxidizer;LiquidFuel;RocketParts;Metal;Chemicals;Polymers;

resourceAmounts = 27000;135000;27000;27000;27000;12150,14850;27000;27000;27000;27000;27000;

tankCost = 95000;9000;45000;110000;48000;18000;

hasGUI = false

}

I added a liquidfuel kontainer that why some of the resource don't match

smjjames · April 8, 2015

Just out of curiosity, what is the white dotted circle on top of the Honeybadger command pod for? Or what did you visualize it as being for?

RoverDude · April 8, 2015

It should be an attachment point

Noobish_Burrito · April 11, 2015

Awesome mod, i want it so bad. so i have a bit of a problem here. i install the mod and everything you know you know... i load the game and the parts isnt there. please help. this mod is epic. i have the same with K+ karbonite+, but karbonite itself works. so.

Sounds like an install issue, tell us the "you know you know". Better yet show is a screenshot of the gamedata and UmbraSpaceIndustries folders.

this for sure

Noobish_Burrito · April 12, 2015

Upgrade FireSpitter.

uhm, can you tell me where? i think you know me with the last comment i posted, so i can see the problem now. i only need to upgrade the firespitter. no idea where.

yes, i found the problem, the problem now is. i need to upgrade firespitter. no idea how

Just use the copy that comes bundled with MKS, or maybe Karbonite, not sure which one is the absolute latest.

Introducing Freight Transportation Technologies! A series of modular parts for all of your hauling, mining, and exploration needs!

Phase 1 introduces the 'Honeybadger' freighter - a 3.75m form factor craft ideal for mining operations or light hauling/tug duties. Usual deal, this is a pre-release, so there are still some minor texturing adjustments being made, as well as proper tech tree integration.

[*]Engine tweaks - power requirements are up, props now spin in the right direction
[*]Two new ducted fan engines - a radial one with similar characteristics as the inline one we already have, and it's new smaller cousin (smaller than FTT's, larger than Exp Pack's). These all have RCS capabilities, but these are not exactly nimble ships 
[*]Kontainers - Kerbal-style cargo containers for hauling around raw goods. They fit snugly inside of the bay of a Honeybadger, and are perfect for use with a KAS and IR crane

[*]Updated engine cowling nodes to not include duplicates. Should not break stuff, but hilarity may ensue.
[/LIST]

I have a little problem with the firespitter. im not a pro at the game but please help, so i read that you could upgrade your firespitter by dowloading the MKS mod. i did that, replaced the firespitter with the MKS, i fixed HALF of the mod. the other half of the mod is the cargobay/containers/honeybadgercontainers. please, this mod is awesome so far.

smjjames · April 12, 2015

Using the one from MKS should and will work for all USI mods, not sure what the issue with Firespitter here is.

Noobish_Burrito · April 12, 2015

Thanks for helping me, here is the list of things that doesnt work: Honeybadger Cargobay, Honeybadger Cargo Pod, Jumbo Cargo Pod, Kontainer, Kontainer MarkII and the Kontainer Pod

futrtrubl · April 12, 2015

yes, i found the problem, the problem now is. i need to upgrade firespitter. no idea how

Grab MKS/OKS and take the firespitter from that.
