sploooshman Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 thanks for your responces guys and of course I understand the reason to not release a buggy system , so was discontinued , my point was that in .25 I never had crashes , and kindof assumes some people who know how have undone the modularfulesystem broken compatability when we kmow its possible , I just wish I could fix the code myself lol also realised ive posted in the wrong realism thread , should have used the discussion thread , ill head over to have a good read and track down some x64 KSP gamers or even a nice pack of .25 parts would be nice , my old PC RIP cheers guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenchant Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Right, I started writing config files for BoxSat. The body will be a stand-in for ESA's Proteus bus, and the tape antennae look similar enough to Cosmiac's.Also: Could the Vanguard engine from Lack's SXT pack serve as a stand-in for the Tordenskjold engines developed by Copenhagen Suborbitals?

GigaG Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I have a feature idea. Some engines (such as the RS-68 and the J-2X, IDK how the original J-2 throttles) can throttle, but IRL they can only throttle in a "step" if memory serves. In other words, they can operate at minimum thrust or maximum, but nowhere in between.Similarly, I've heard the SSME can only throttle in whole number percentages.Could this "step" throttling be implemented into RO?

StoryMusgrave Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 GigaG: Not without a new plugin that can do this. RO can simply set min/max, fuel ratio, Isp, etc. Actual engine control is dependent upon stock engine module with the minor tweaks of RealFuels.

I'm no coder, but it can't be any harder to code than EngineIgnitor. Right?On another note, for single-step throttles, what about making one part have 2 single-thrust-level "engines" that can be switchd with an action group? Two issues here - you'd have to use multiple "ignitions" and also prevent using both "engines" at once - perhaps by overheating? (Also, it would be confusing at first glance.)

StoryMusgrave Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 GigaG: Good point! I can't see why that couldn't be done with the MultiModeEngine that is used with Rapier, RealFuels supports it now...now THAT shouldn't be that hard to code.

I was thinking two engines in one part that could be configured to swap. Your plan allows good use of EngineIgnitor and simpler use, along with not having to mess with overheating to prevent using both modes at once.

jandcando Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Link to "RealPlume" is not working. Can't find it around either.RealPlume is integrated with Realism Overhaul by default, so just make sure you have SmokeScreen installed, and all the RealPlume effects should be good to go!

samhuk Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Hello guys,There seems to be a problem with downloading the RO package through CKAN (which everybody does). There is a fatal clash between 'Regolith 0.1.7' and 'ModuleFixer 3' which crashes install of RO.Any pointers would be good,Thanks.EDIT: On Linux install by the way.

StoryMusgrave Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 No, not everybody uses CKAN. What kind of clash? Log? Anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samhuk Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) The large majority of people does, installing RO without CKAN is, well, hileriously impossible.And I didn't post the log because it's kinda obvious what is happening by the log, but here it is anyhoozles:The following inconsistencies were found:Regolith 0.1.7 and ModuleFixer 3 conflict with each other, yet we require them both!Error!Thank you.EDIT: Tried to install via command-line also, but also failed. Is anyone else having this problem? Edited April 23, 2015 by samhuk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoryMusgrave Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Only impossible for the simple minded.So this is a CKAN problem. While I don't use CKAN, what I DO know is that neither ModuleFixer OR Regolith is REQUIRED by RO. Now. ModuleFixer is recommended, kind of a fail safe for an otherwise bad config. Regolith must be required by one of the possible additional mods that RO supports. So...make your decisions based on that. Either remove ModuleFixer, or remove Regolith and/or whatever mod depends upon it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NathanKell Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 v8.4.1* Fix stock Science Lab part. Note: If you have Ven's Stock Revamp, you will need an update for that as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samhuk Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the update Nathan! EDIT: Argh, still getting that CKAN bug for linux, not downloading module fixer 3 still doesn't solve the problem, and CKAN just crashes on 'updating mods' Thing is, you're going to be like "well it's a ckan bug so they will know", and ckan folk be like "well the conflict is the mod's fault not ours"god dayum accountability EDIT 2: I forgot to do the "apt-get install libcurl4........" thing for CKAN, and that combined with not installing Module Fixer 3 seems to have fixed some things.

ClLaw Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I've been having trouble with the new style AJ10 that got added(looks like a larger version of what the Aerobee Sustainer looked like before this update with Ven's Revamp installed) and the Generic 1kN Thruster. These are the only 2 so far but haven't checked everything yet. Whenever I click to use these engines I'm able to place them where I want but once I've click to place these parts then I'm not able to do anything with them again. It's like they cease to exist but you can still see them. Whether you place them on a node to your craft or if you place hem to one side(greyed out) they do(or don't do) the same thing. This has only happened since this update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
