It seemed to follow CoM, but keept drifting away. It soon disappeared and had no effect what-so-ever on gameplay, FPS or performance in general.

What ARE the mods you are running?

That might just be helpful to know.

You probably have to test every. single. one. of them

(Also shouldn't this by in the 'bugs' section?)

My money's on this one.

Clicking the associated toolbar button should let you toggle it on and off.

I'm. NOT. gonna. do. that. :wink:

But i don't think it's a bug

That's not the one. I just installed it today and the pictures are from yesterday

So short of someone happening to know which mod is causing this, you are going to have to hunt for it yourself. However, testing every single mod would take about 4.6 hours, with the assumption it takes you 3 minutes to remove a mod and get to the flight scene. This is a prohibitive amount of time, but there is a quicker way using the power of the binary search:

1. Split your mods into two halves, A and B.

2. Remove B from GameData and boot the game

3. If the artefact is still there, keep B and if it has gone, replace B with A

4. Repeat, but this time splitting A or B in half.

This should take about 21 minutes. Obviously, I have not considered details such as the time the game takes to boot depends on the number of mods you have installed, but it should still take less time to find the issue.

A binary search is by far the most efficient, but i haven't been able to reproduce the "bug". I was just hoping that someone would have seen it also.

Well, we can narrow it down a bit ...

It's not Chatterer, DRE, RPM, KER, IR, MM, NasaMission (that's stock!), PreciseNode, RT, SCANSat, ShipManifest (Seriously, with CrewManifest as well?), Squad (duh!) or KAC (if that's what's inside TriggerTech - it would be so nice if this was a list of MODS, not a list of files/folders ^^).

There are a few more I would think are almost certainly innocent but don't know well enough to judge. There are a few I've never even heard of there too.

PS: Is KSP Lua working now? I'll have to check-up on that.

I have removed a few obsolete mods like crew manifest. Also added a few today.

Please note that a lot of parts that i don't want, have been removed to save RAM.

Hope this helps

No, that log is overwritten

Looks kinda like selection marker from EVAFollower, although I don't see it in the mod list.

It's there could it be that mod?

J.Random · November 20, 2014

I have no idea. Why don't you check it yourself?

superm18 · November 20, 2014

I have tried to replicate it many times and in different senarios before i even posted this thread. Can't do it, that's why I am posting...

Padishar · November 20, 2014

If you go to 3:00 in the video in the EVA Follower thread then you will see 3 kerbals get marquee selected and they show very similar looking rings. It does look like this is something to do with that mod, the first post mentions "Ã¢â‚¬Â¢Your able to select kerbals in space, and you shouldn't" so I guess that you somehow managed to select your kerbal and the mod doesn't correctly account for the shifting origin causing the selection marker to drift around...

superm18 · November 20, 2014

Ohh i see :-) thanks a lot! I eva'd the kerbal and the ring appeared and stayed when he went back in the pod, that's when the ring started to drift.

thanks again
