magico13 Posted March 19, 2018 Author Share Posted March 19, 2018 Alright, KCT seems to be pretty much ready to go as far as I can tell with some limited testing. So if anyone's willing to do some more thorough testing, please grab the latest build from the build server here and let me know what weird problems you find. Even if you don't find anything after a fairly comprehensive play session(s), let me know if it all seems to be working for you (or not). I'm going to change up a couple things with how the build server does builds to match ScrapYard's setup, but I anticipate KCT should be officially released in the next few days pending a bit more testing.

maculator Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I watched a youtube series while I was playing myself and now I somehow think I NEED KCT^^ I just got a few questions on how to do it: Is it correct to say I need KCT, scrapjard and stage recovery for the experience? Is it a big performance hit? (Background processing and stuff like that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StageRecovery isn't required, but it can help since it'll result in more parts being recovered. But ScrapYard is very strongly recommended, although not strictly required and you can play with KCT without it just fine if you don't really care about reusability. Performance shouldn't be affected that much. The main scene that has issues is the editor since there are some hefty calculations done there by ScrapYard and KCT.

maculator Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Thanky you. Well reusability is the whole point I guess^^ I'll just store my current career somwhere save and give the devbuild a go! The guy in the yt series had some ships he used over years, thats exactly what I want to be encouraged to. Anyways I'll gladly test it out and report back, got some time and will play the next few days straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tg626 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) Clicking here results in a direct launch with no build time. (intended?) (of course that's the Making History Expansion giving me 2 launch sites - I *think*) Edited March 20, 2018 by tg626 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should be adding a new build that uses that launch site by default. Make sure you're on build 49 (you can check the .dll's properties to see what build you're on) which you can grab from here.

maculator Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) He said there are about ~3 episodes to come and then its finished. Impressive that he kept it going from 1.0.5 (I guess) until the present. And it's the most underrated stuff I've ver seen, besides the loud intro and outro it's really good stuff.

No Problem, if you can't do anything, perhaps you could add it as a known issue? I thought there might be a chance, that this is just a minor change, when i realized, that you have to launch the capsules crewed, too, in order to take the inventory with you. Also in the capsules the inventory is labled as "[Kerbal]'s inventory" (after launch, when you right-click the capsule), so it seems to be a personal inventory, as it would be with the seats.

I think I might know why it's happening. Are you running 32 bit KSP? There's a slight difference between the 32 bit version and the 64 bit version that breaks some of the tricks I do to get at the buttons. I've run into it in the past and just forgot about it, but I have a workaround I can use. I'll get it fixed up tonight. 7 hours ago, maculator said: He said there are about ~3 episodes to come and then its finished. Impressive that he kept it going from 1.0.5 (I guess) until the present.

If you guys get really bored I used to have a KSP youtube series back before (and during) when I first started modding. You can see the very first alpha releases of KCT! 7 hours ago, BlueTiger12 said: No Problem, if you can't do anything, perhaps you could add it as a known issue?

Either the KSP.log in the main KSP folder, or the output_log.txt file which got moved to %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Squad\Kerbal Space Program\. Either one should have the info I'm looking for. 7 minutes ago, severedsolo said: Well, I know I've been poking you alot recently, but I have to say that KCT and ScrapYard seem to be playing very nice together now. No issues found. Sweet, good to know. I tested all the situations I could think of where they'd interact and fixed all the issues I could find, but I'm sure there are more issues hiding in weird situations, as there always are.

demibear Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 (edited) I do not know if it is the same issue, but I am having problems with KCT soft crashing my game when I try to go back to the space center to rollback a craft. I get a warning that the game is seriously broken now and there is nothing to rollback. I thought maybe the mod does not support that new launch site, but it happens with the main one as well. Reverting the flight to the launchpad also does it. Here is the log file, good lord it is huge unzipped: https://drive.google.com/open?id=11wmWAlDXh1uSoo6CUyZ1X0yDqgmitF27 Edited March 22, 2018 by demibear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverting the flight to the launchpad also does it. It's hard to tell what's going on since you're being spammed nonstop by KSP-AVC errors. That's probably giving you lag and definitely is why that log file is so big. @linuxgurugamer is going to be updating KSP-AVC and fixing bugs in the next few days, so you might want to remove the one you have installed and wait for that update. 22 hours ago, tg626 said: Ok -Meanwhile in other news: Hard to tell what's causing it. KSP tends to crash on scene changes though and there's not usually much you can do about it. I did see the issue with the launch buttons in my own game and have an idea of why it might be happening, so I'm going to play around with that tonight.

demibear Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 (edited) Bah, guess I am not playing KSP for 6 months again. I will do that and and all the mini-avc bundled in mods. Then send another log file. Edited March 23, 2018 by demibear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magico13 Posted March 23, 2018 Author Share Posted March 23, 2018 Build #53 should fix the issue with the various launch buttons losing their overrides. It was happening if you loaded or created a new ship (any time the editor would restart) so I just had to add a listener for that event to re-override the buttons.

Then send another log file. That's a bit extreme. Removing KSP-AVC isn't going to affect your gameplay in any way, and when LGG gets it ready for 1.4.1, you can just put it back into your game. Don't know why that will make you not play for 6 months? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
