I'll put together a separate KSP, and let you know what I can find in regards to this, at first though everything will work fine, even with some contracts, but then things just go awry. I'll see if I can nail down the moment it happens. EDIT: After testing a new game, and being able to recover aircraft, the logs still show a repeat in contract errors as you stated and as seen in the log after craft are not recoverable. Still doing more testing....

Basically, this means that there is a problem in one or more contract packs. I'm going to review the Bases & Stations this evening, if I have time I'll look at some of the others as well Well usually I'm doing part contracts, and that's when I first noticed it. But I even noticed it after a flight when completing a SETI Contract of researching 18km. I have also noticed it happen on GAP contracts, and the errors are all the same whether I take contracts or not. So I'm not sure if it's the contracts error that is causing the unrecoverable vessel. I'm having a hard time narrowing it out to any specific one thing otherwise I would've come to you with more information. This may have to do with another mod entirely, since I just completed some contracts with just KCT and the contract packs without any weird behaviour. It's odd how it doesn't show up at first, but then appears all the time and even with no contracts on the go, craft are still unrecoverable. I'm sorry I don't have any more information, this problem is difficult to find. However, after it occurs once, it never goes away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linuxgurugamer Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) Hi, I found a problem in the Bases & Stations, the agent was wrong, which may have been causing your issues. I'm pushing a new release, will be 3.7.1.3, please try it when available Release is now available on Github, CKAN will probably take a few hours to get updated Edited March 5, 2019 by linuxgurugamer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pushing a new release, will be 3.7.1.3, please try it when available Release is now available on Github, CKAN will probably take a few hours to get updated I tried the updated Contract pack for Bases & Stations to no avail. So I eliminated the contract packs from the equation and the problem persists, the error line I'm getting is: [ERR 23:58:42.711] [KCT] Error while recovering craft into inventory. I've been slowly removing mods to find the culprit and still have not found anything after removing a whole lot of mods. I'm falling asleep at this point and have been working on this for hours. I'll post another log file without the contract pack errors, in hopes to guide you further in the process and I'll leave a save file for you to look at. I'll continue looking into this when I have more free time. KSP Log without contracts pack and variety of mods: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nwvhXMhns9tH4TGOBBArCeIHx6z7mq7f/view?usp=sharing Save file (been using for test purposes: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1aCPeGBSITWYwCDuXt9AfL_GbwETtEdr0?usp=sharing Best of luck, I'm starting to lean towards the mod itself at this point. I'll try one more test with just the mod and see if I can get it to fail as a last ditch effort. Edited March 5, 2019 by FuriousSquirrel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuriousSquirrel Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Great news! @linuxgurugamer I found the offending mod preventing craft from being recovered. It's actually another mod you are looking after as well. ScienceAlert Realerted. It took some time to narrow down but once I did, I tested just KCT, with ScienceAlert Realerted and it's dependencies and noticed that it would not allow recovery of craft. I then tested it without sciencealert installed and keeping the dependencies to rule them out (click through blocker and toolbar controller) and that worked fine. So 100% positive ScienceAlert Realerted is preventing craft from being recovered. I even reinstalled all my mods, and tested just without ScienceAlert to rule out any other issues, and voila! Things are working correctly! It seems odd that ScienceAlert has this effect on the vessel recoveries. I'm sure this is more than enough for you to find the reason for this. I'll happily enjoy KCT without ScienceAlert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll happily enjoy KCT without ScienceAlert. I have been having the same problem. (Could never recover crafts through KCT's Craft Recovery, I got a little popup window saying cant do that now, try doing a scene change, but that had no effect. Even if they were never launched or were on the runway) I also have KCT and ScienceAlert Realerted (with about 120+ other mods) installed. SO I uninstalled JUST ScienceAlert Realerted and now I can recover crafts through KCT's craft recovery button. So confirm it is a mod conflict between them, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today they released [x] Science again, and so I'm using that once again, it's working fine with KCT, so I recommend doing that instead. The timing for it to come back was perfect.

For now I went ahead and re-enabled ScienceAlert Realerted. and will just live with the inability to recover with KCT.

linuxgurugamer Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 For those having problems with KCT and Science Alert, I need to know the follwing: KCT version Science Alert version KSP version and the following two questions: On the vessels you have problems trying to recover, were they involved with a contract, and if so, which contract? If the answer to the above is yes, then did you have any problems trying to recover a vessel which didnt do anything with a contract? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I do have contracts, but I can stick a plane on the runway, which I dont have any contracts for) try to recover and get the popup saying KCT cant do it right now. The same thing applies to Manned or Unmanned vessels placed on the Launchpad, and try to recover, or vessels that have been launched and landed near the spaceport. As I mentioned, I have never been able to use KCT's recovery. (Always get the KCT popup saying cant do that now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
