[0.90 - Gameplay] Wrong Kerbal's log

[Gnou]

In the Kerbanaut complex, the Flight Log show a "wrong value" (I guess it just point on the wrong one), Flight-Kerbin and so the value stay 1 after the first flight.

But the persistent.sfs has the correct flight value.

My pilot didnt progress since his 1st run (10th flight done actualy), no idea if it is normal or linked to this little error.

Please see the stickied Stock Support thread and provide additional information. In this case, uploading the persistent.sfs would be a good addition to the standard background information.

Um, no, that is correct, you do not get extra points for more flights, you get 1xp for the first successful flight with that Kerbal.

[Gnou]

The report was about the Flight Log which only say "Flight at Kerbin = 1".

The xp gain was just an question, any idea how may look the progress's curve.

I cant upload but there the concerned part in persistent.sfs:

I'm still not really sure what the problem is here, Gnou. Could you try to explain a little more clearly, please?

[Gnou]

Sure, sorry for my english.

So, as you can see in the log, I have a pretty experienced kerbal with his 10 flight.

But in the Astronaut complex (the KSC building), his log (when you select him) only show "Flight at Kerbin = 1". So there is a little mistake somewhere.

A minor bug, but still a bug! ;o)

============ Edit ============

Well, well... Maybe it is not a bug and just a lack of knowledge from me ;o)

After a little read about how Experience works, I now see the famous Flight Log in another way.

As the xp gain is only 1 peer celestial body, so maybe the log only show the flight which gave the xp.

But it would make more sense if the log show also the right number of flight in my mind. A log that show our kerbals career path!

You have a valid point. The Kerbal Experience (KXP) is working as it was intended. But I agree that it would also be nice if the crew's log was a bit more detailed.

Welcome to the forums!

Cheers,

Ah, I see what's going on. Yeah, the way things work isn't always super clear. Thanks for taking the time to explain it.

[sal_vager]

The log is not there to show total flights though, so sorry but this is not a bug.

Thank you for looking into it though.
