Stock doesn't allow you to do that with RCS ports. Is there a way I can still do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NathanKell Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 arbiter787: Update KSP. You're on 1.0.5 build 1024, you need to update to 1028+. Redownload KSP. dafidge9898: Stock supports that, it just doesn't have it hooked up to a GUI. Right down to the variable names being the same.

Thanks, that worked. Wish there was a better way to see if there's an update than using the launcher, which I don't like as it adds 30 seconds to my startup time.

Tukas Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 (edited) I've come to a problem where I cant use the RCS's... I tried filling the tanks with different fuels and still no luck. Even the RCSAid shows that the RCS units have 0 dV. I've opened the GUI and bought all available fuels, tried to fill up the tanks with them and yet no luck. Maybe someone have some suggestions? EDIT: After some testing I just noticed that as soon as I enable RCS, it just drains all of the Nitrogen, if I use IJKLHN it drains more quickly but I can not see any RCS effects nor feel the thrust... It just drains the fuel but do not actually give me any thrust and control... The problem is that I cannot control my vessel unless the engines are running, so I cant fire in the right direction... I thought I would use RCS but they do not work too. Edited December 8, 2015 by Tukas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I would use RCS but they do not work too. By any chance, are you still on the launch pad when you're testing that? By default, when you first go to the launch pad, your engines are set to 50% power. If you turn RCS on (and have any thrusters set to handle fore/aft translation), they'll start firing at 50% thrust. And with Nitrogen (which has very little thrust to begin with), the effect might not be enough to actually see them firing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
politas Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Is there a separate thread for Real Plume? The latest versions are marked as only being compatible with 1.0.4 in CKAN, so anyone installing on 1.0.5 is going to get an old version (v0.4.3).

The game loads properly until after Module Manager, where it hangs on any engine part. Bobcatind loads first so it happens to be the NK-33, but any engine part will do this, including squad ones. I assume this has to do with configs or something but I have no idea how to fix it. Here are the relevant parts of my logs: KSP.log: [LOG 16:15:19.053] PartLoader: Compiling Part 'BobCatind/Sovietengines/NK33/part/NK33' [LOG 16:15:19.069] EffectList: Created 13 effect types [WRN 16:15:19.084] PartLoader Warning: Variable RSSROConfig not found in Part [LOG 16:15:19.107] *RF* Loading RFSETTINGS global settings [LOG 16:15:19.110] *U* Ullage constructor called on NK33 [ERR 16:15:19.155] Cannot find a PartModule of typename 'ModuleAeroReentry' I seem to have the same bug.

sal_vager Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 hi @talpa, if you're having trouble it's best to put it in your own words, arbiters issue could be something else, and try installing manually rather than using ckan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

talpa Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) The main menu screen actually says 1.0.5.0 I have just redownloaded the KSP zip file the new file has a different MD5 sum than the one I installed from. I will try the new file and report back === EDIT === It still claims to be 1.0.5.0 but after downloading a new .zip file from kerbalspaceprogram.com it now lauches without any problems including realism overhaul Edited December 16, 2015 by talpa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NathanKell Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Linux doesn't display the build number for some reason; you have to go to your KSP path and open BuildID.txt to see what build you're on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boonehoss Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Hello, I would like to report a serious bug . Your mod seems to have broken the engines. By that i mean the engines don't produce thrust, don't consume fuel, or even start. I installed the mod using ckan, so i didn't forget anything. Do you have any suggestions as to how i can fix this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To quote @NathanKell: On 11/14/2015, 11:18:04, NathanKell said: The stock parts support the axis restriction, they just don't have the buttons enabled in the editor to do it ingame. A simple plugin module could sit beside the RCS module and toggle those. For the minimum throttle, do not trust the FX of the ports: for some reason it's very weak (on all RCS thrusters and regardless of the propellant used) but the actual thrust values are correct. I think that you had reported that a while back though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
