Makrom Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) Hello there, I have been using this interesting mod lately, and I would like to suggest an addition to the drive, a control panel, where you can set some instruction for to stop the drive when the amount of EM is too low, maybe automate the process of to doing more EM and continue , something that can run on its own so you can go to other scene on the game and do whatever else like the "bon voyage" mod does with rovers, by example, in that way you don´t have to stay for 5 or 6 hours (really..) waiting for the ship to arrive. just my two cents on some idea that I think it can improve it. cheers, Edited September 20, 2022 by Makrom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoverDude Posted May 30, 2022 Author Share Posted May 30, 2022 Version 112.0.1 of our warp drive mod has been released, and the thread has been updated to reflect the updated download location and KSP version supported. CKAN should also be catching up for those of you who use it. You can also nab the latest release here: https://github.com/UmbraSpaceIndustries/WarpDrive/releases This is pretty much what was in the bleeding edge releases for 1.11, plus a few small tweaks - including fixing those pesky drag cubes! Barring any major issues, this is likely going to be the release we stick with for the foreseeable future, as @@DoktorKrogg and I are both neck deep in a new indie game we're both working on So while we're totally still around and active in the forums and on the USI discord, I would not anticipate any major new USI releases, at least in the short term, though there are still a few major things we both want to knock out (including updating all of the wheels, and some other large system changes). Lastly, a couple of handy links. First, the discord server for all things USI (though this also covers our new game as well), and a reminder that I'll be doing a bunch of streaming around game dev (mostly the art side, so Blender, Substance, Unity, etc.). though it's going to be exclusively work on the new game, vs KSP stuff. Discord: https://discord.gg/FNBwUXRgX8 Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/RoverDude Enjoy! And make sure to let us know if any bees got into the build process. If so, we'll do a fast follower in a week or two if necessary to update the releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I understand what you're asking correctly, you need to go into the configuration file(s) of whatever engine you want to affect. Find the attribute "MinAltitude" and adjust it downward from its default value. Frankly, I'd leave it as it is myself. Using warp drive in the vicinity of a planet or moon can be a good way to put a craft on a terminal course with things as they are. Or just smack one outright.

Default is 6 (meaning 6 times light speed). There's also one called "TurboMult" that you can fiddle with but you don't want to make that one too large (there's even a note in the file to that effect).

mike_onike Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Hello everyone. I would like to know the exact explanation of each option in .cfg part file in module section, eg. WarpFactor, GravFactor etc. Of course, if that's not a problem. Just a brief one. There is in fact an explanation for some options, but others are a bit confusing for me . Thanks guys.

I have an extremely large solar array with Near Future solar arrays Solar won't be enough, not unless you're in close proximity to Kerbol anyway (like within Moho's orbit). But yeah, don't try to operate the drive and recharge exotic matter at the same time. It doesn't work out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuggzy Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 I just built a huge ship with 28 Near Future nukes for power. It maintains the energy just fine but the exotic matter conversion doesn't keep up so it will run for 54 minutes without stopping for charge. I am using the 3.75m Z-Model. The question I have is what is the top speed on it? I added the Strange New Worlds mod. At present calculations it's going to take me 25 days of around the clock play to get there. It's only supposed to be a little over 4 light years away. Something isn't adding up here . Is there any way to get this going any faster?

alpine488 Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 (edited) I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but whenever I try to place it down, it immediately snaps off and I can't place it back again unless I get a new part in the editor. Does anybody know why and how I can fix this? Edit: Nevermind, I've just found a solution literally right after I posted this!

capi3101 Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 @RoverDude I've seen the same behavior as the last two posters on this thread. The Alcubierre Drive doesn't want to behave unless you set it as the root part. I have only noticed this on the 2.5 meter drive so far; I'll check the other engines to see if they're doing the same thing or if it's just the one part. If you don't set the warp engine as the root, it snaps off on placement. It then becomes necessary to trash the part to which the engine was going to be attached before you can get rid of it. Clicking on the engine itself to get rid of it moves the entire craft in the editor (like it's trying to be the root part.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
