Caerfinon Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 I've never nested one vessel parameter group inside another. But I have used the Type Any parameter to nest multiple Vessel Parameter groups as separate solutions to completing the contract requirements PARAMETER { name = Any type = Any PARAMETER { name = VesselParameterGroup1 type = VesselParameterGroup ... } PARAMETER { name = VesselParameterGroup2 type = VesselParameterGroup ... } PARAMETER { name = VesselParameterGroup3 type = VesselParameterGroup ... } } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for getting me moving again. Edited March 21 by Ooglak Kerman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ooglak Kerman Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 It looks like you can nest vessel parameter groups. But the PARAMETER ReachState with a situation = ORBITING comes up true for all bodies. I can work with it I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leroidangleterre Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I've used aircraft contracts and this one seemed interesting: stay above a requested altitude for a given time. Yet the timer starts when the flight starts, and the mark gets checked by just waiting, not even flying. To fix this, i've tried changing the contract code to this: //Contract Goals PARAMETER { name = VesselParameterGroup type = All title = fly up to 1,000m vessel = @/craft PARAMETER { name = ReachState type = ReachState targetBody = Kerbin situation = FLYING minAltitude = 1000 hideChildren = true hidden = true PARAMETER { name = VesselParameterGroup type = VesselParameterGroup title = Hold for 3min PARAMETER { name = Duration type = Duration duration = 180s preWaitText = and hold for: waitingText = and hold for: completionText = You did it! } } } completeInSequence = true disableOnStateChange = true hideChildren = false } What I did is I included the "hold for 3min" requirement inside the ReachState part. Yet the timer still starts even before the altitude is reached. How would you solve that ? What syntax should I use ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aelfhe1m Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 1 hour ago, leroidangleterre said: How would you solve that ? What syntax should I use ? I think the problem is the position of the disableOnStateChange field - it applies to the vessel (so switching vessels would disable it) rather than the vessel state (so changes in altitude would affect it). Try this (untested): Spoiler PARAMETER { name = VesselGroup type = VesselParameterGroup title = Fly above 1000m for 3 minutes. PARAMETER { name = Has Crew type = HasCrew minCrew = 1 title = Have at least 1 crewmember on board } PARAMETER { name = holdAltitude type = ReachState minAltitude = 1000 situation = FLYING disableOnStateChange = true PARAMETER { name = Duration type = Duration duration = 3m preWaitText = Reach 1000m. waitingText = Hold above 1000m for 3 minutes. completedText = You did it! } } } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinchinWeb Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 On 7/4/2016 at 2:25 PM, nightingale said: I think I know what it is - it's because of the way @inigma set up the contracts with the vessel tracking. I'm willing to bet that it's tracking some old vessel (maybe one that doesn't exist any more). There is a long standing issue with the Sounding Rockets contract pack. Is there a better way to do vessel tracking? I would love to update the contract pack and get this resolved once and for all, but I need some pointers on how to go about that. Conceptually, the idea is to require the rocket to use the Sounding Rockets' Avionics Package and to start with (but not be required to finish with) one of the two Sounding Rockets' boosters. The current WIP code is here --> https://github.com/MinchinWeb/ksp-ContractPack-SoundingRockets/blob/retry/Core/KSP-SR-2000m.cfg Many thanks!

stk2008 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) is contracts suppose to place a waypoint if you also have waypoint manager installed? I see no waypoint for this. Now unlike you smart lot I never knew what hadopelagic meant so googled it and it means deepest part of ocean?. but in the contract window it says about orbiting kerbin so I am very confused how you can be orbiting Kerbin and also be in the deepest part of the ocean at the same time. Please advise thanks in advance P.S I think my install may be bugged or a few contracts I am using are bugged because I also had a contact to scan and transmit the data from a baobab tree which I did with the OP-E arm but never completes the transmit part always stays at 0% even though it clearly sent VIA the message at top left.

Ooglak Kerman Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Anyone know if it is possible to access the state of a contract - I.E. contract complete - from ModuleManager? What I'm looking to do is to change the true | false of a PQSCities property if a specific contract has been completed. I understand that I need to be able to access that PQSCities property. I'm approaching this from both ends at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooglak Kerman Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 @siimav A feature recommendation if you please Behaviour to rename a .txt file to a .cfg (RenameTextFile) Example use case: enable a MM patch to add a resource or module to a part upon successful completion of a contract or parameter. It is understood that a game restart would be necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't it be better to move CC to a newer post? I think I'm not the only one that though that CC is still in the 1.3X version becasue of the first post in this thread.
