I'm having a problem with my craft always spinning clockwise with mechjeb and also the stock SAS, I've tried re-root but it seems the root node is offset for some reason. I've tried removing 90% of the craft but it always spins clockwise.

This other vehicle crashes KSP immediately upon load that also used to work

I'm also having crashes inside the SPH editor however it doesn't make a crash log. Any ideas how to capture this?

I'm also having an issue with it wanting to roll, even when I tell it not to roll, and it's always oscillating back and forth on both SAS modes.

I solved my issue. I had my joystick deadband set too low so it was getting user input even though I wasn't pressing anything. It is odd because it worked fine the day before, it just must have been borderline.

I don't have a joystick hooked up :(

The kOS release that was put out tonight should address that infinitely growing mass bug that was making kOS unusable with RO:

Thank you for that, I was about to reinstall everything one at a time to find out what was going on and kOS would probably been one of the last things I checked. I thought it happened because of the Kerbal Counting thing. Great news, thank you.

Hello,

I'm trying to make a really rough test flight config for the RD-275M, just so there's something there. I just copied the Test flight config from the RD-275 in RD253_Config.cfg, pasted it right underneath and then changed it to RD-275M and changed ratedBurnTime.
It is kinda working, the engine did fail after an appropriate amount of time but the Test flight monitoring window keeps flickering between not recognizing the engine and the right data from it. Any ideas whats causing that?
The file now looks like this after all the normal engine stuff:
 

@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[ModuleEngineConfigs]:HAS[@CONFIG[RD-253]],!MODULE[TestFlightInterop]]:BEFORE[zTestFlight]
{
	TESTFLIGHT
	{
		name = RD-253
		ratedBurnTime = 148
		ignitionReliabilityStart = 0.928
		ignitionReliabilityEnd = 0.999
		ignitionDynPresFailMultiplier = 0.1
		cycleReliabilityStart = 0.928
		cycleReliabilityEnd = 0.995
	}
}


@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[ModuleEngineConfigs]:HAS[@CONFIG[RD-275]],!MODULE[TestFlightInterop]]:BEFORE[zTestFlight]
{
	TESTFLIGHT
	{
		name = RD-275
		ratedBurnTime = 129
		ignitionReliabilityStart = 0.928
		ignitionReliabilityEnd = 0.998
		ignitionDynPresFailMultiplier = 0.1
		cycleReliabilityStart = 0.928
		cycleReliabilityEnd = 0.998
		techTransfer = RD-253:50
	}
}

//this is what I added
@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[ModuleEngineConfigs]:HAS[@CONFIG[RD-275M]],!MODULE[TestFlightInterop]]:BEFORE[zTestFlight]
{
	TESTFLIGHT
	{
		name = RD-275M
		ratedBurnTime = 167
		ignitionReliabilityStart = 0.928
		ignitionReliabilityEnd = 0.998
		ignitionDynPresFailMultiplier = 0.1
		cycleReliabilityStart = 0.928
		cycleReliabilityEnd = 0.998
		techTransfer = RD-253:50
	}
}

@NathanKell Sorry to bug you again, but since you're the most active RO dev and this is a bit unusual:

I've made new engine configs while fiddling with SSTU files, namely I took the AJ10-190 model, and created SXT style generic early/med/advanced AJ10 copies.

Now that was originally more for myself, playing around with configs, but I think they might be useful to other people as well. Currently when playing RP-0, or searching for specific AJ10s, you often need to use SXT's AJ10s. Fine models, but a bit low res and you don't really have an alternative. On the other hand, SSTU's AJ10-190 is a slick, nice looking model with a small base and profiting by the mods multi-engine mounts. Also looks generic enough to stand for many different engines.

Do you think they should be added to the RO configs? It's probably unusual to add completely new engines, but I always felt there was lack of more generic AJ10 engines in RO, and SSTU might be a very good candidate to add some.

guys i just burned up in the atmosphere using the first capsule. went for initial 60k perigee from LEO. ablator was fine but i just heated up and exploded around 80k.

didnt change any configs yet...should i?

PS: just want to make sure to thank you for all your great work again @NathanKell  :)

Does anyone know why the 1kN thruster has 3 attachment points?  There's one at each end of the engine, and then a 3rd (bigger) one floating above the engine.  What would I utilize that attachment port for?

Sounds like one that you would use in place of the one at the bottom of the engine. An interstage's top node would attach there.

Ven stock revamp has upper attachment points which add an engine base, e.g. when you want to use 0.625m engines on 1.25m stacks. Might be that you still get these nodes - but not bases - when not using VSR.

I've seen those on some engines, but noticed that the upper attachment point was like 10 meters up

Relict from new VSR revamp where he made custom tank butts appearing when attaching on the upper most node.

It's the the time of the question who appeared of nowhere !

It's possible to include the SSTU mod at RO ? their commands pods are se useful ! 

(Sorry if my english is bad, i'm french)

Question about SRB's in RO

 TWR is very low (.25 or lower)...what am I doing wrong? Im in career mode, about 1.5k science in, and the booster spans almost 3/4ths of my rocket.

Anyone have much luck using crafts from previous versions?  I'm trying to launch the same rocket as I did here (https://youtu.be/B1RMaTW6IDM?t=15m25s), but when I put the rocket on the pad, it shows about half the deltaV it had in 1.0.5 (and performs like it has half the deltaV).  If I go back to the VAB, it shows the new, reduced DeltaV number.  If I try to adjust the utilization in the tank, many of the game controls freeze up.

EDIT: It looks like it has to do with the fins I'm using.  Doing some testing, it looks like the fins (both B9 and just the basic fin) are using up a lot more mass than in earlier versions, causing the problem.  Take a look at this spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pAozWC8BKac429Mfmb0o7a4OuZ3kOcNYLEzQQodE0-k/edit?usp=sharing  The short version is this: it looks like for 3 basic fins, the mass of the fins went from .055t to .075t between versions (noticible, but not horrible).  For the B9 wings however (which I made really small), the mass went from .002t to 0.152t (extremely noticeable).

I don't see it on Ckan, where is the easiest place to get it?

thanks

I'm having the same issue...partially. I've got CKAN installed on Mac and Windows machines, and the Mac sees RO just fine. Windows not so much. Can anyone shed some light on this? It's a little frustrating.
