Expand Same conversation is being held over there: I think we should just stick to the requests (i.e. readouts), and leave the discussion about why knots are better or worse than kilometers to elsewhere (although, the discussion of how exactly to define 1Nm on Kerbin is pertinent here).

Bit Fiddler Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) my point is to use real world numbers of knots and nautical miles and feet etc.you need your craft to display these numbers, and it does not. so even If you have your WP displayed in nautical miles. your air speed is not in kts. and your VSI is not in f/s etc. so you will need to have a mod change all this to match the nautical miles of the WP manager mod. and all these mods would have to agree is it based on kerbin's geometry, or just a simple conversion of m/s to kts based on earth geometry etc. not saying one is better than the other. just saying if players change their frame of reference to Kerbin rather than Earth and realize the underlying math it all works out better. as trying to get all modders out there to agree on converting the metric values already used in KSP to another unit of measure will mean they all must either go with kerbin geometry or earth geometry. as if they ALL do not do it the same way all the math is ruined. this would be a cat herding exercise. so better to educate the players on how to do things with the tools at hand, rather than try to get all modders to agree to use Kerbin geometry for their kts and mach numbers.

nightingale Posted December 4, 2016 Author Share Posted December 4, 2016 Bunch of people involved while I was away, so I won't tag. I don't think I'll be doing kts or any other non-stock supported units of measure for the following reasons: Time - I simply don't have enough of it. Glide Slope - Calculating the glide slope seems to be the argument for adding in nautical miles - but the glide slope is directly available in Waypoint Manager (it's an optional thing in the HUD, you just need to turn it on via the settings).

Syntax Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Hi @nightingale . Just loaded up a new sandbox game in a clean install of 1.2.2 x64 (no other mods but Waypoint Manager 2.6.0). Playing in career in 1.1.3 x64 with v.2.5.x, I had been able to place .png files in the WaypointManager/icons/Custom folder and have them show up in the Icon Selector. Seems that's not working for me anymore; I get buttons corresponding to the icon files, but with just a single pixel for the image, and nothing shows in the waypoint marker. I'm wondering if you (or anyone) might be able to help me figure out why. Am I missing something really simple or is this a larger issue? Image below shows the problem. The 8 icons I'm trying to use are here (and they work just fine in my old save). They're from your Anomaly Surveyor contract pack and my Interplanetary Mountaineer pack. Thanks for any input you can offer! EDIT: I've been digging into this a little to see if I can figure something out, but without much luck. What I've come across is two additional questions: When I export my custom waypoints to a .cfg file, there are two fields I don't really understand. Seed and navigationid. What is the significance of each of these? If I'm uploading custom waypoints from a previous version, what do I need to keep in mind with regard to these fields? EDIT2: While I'm here, I might as well mention that Waypoint Manager also seems to be duplicating my custom waypoints on saving them. Only one appears in the list, but two waypoints display on the map, stacked one on top of the other (second image).

msromike Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 First would like to say thank you for this great game mod. It's probably me but I can't get the load waypoints feature to work. When I do an import, I get an informational message that says that "33 waypoints imported" but I don't see the new waypoints in the list. The export function creates my custom waypoints into the .cfg file correctly. What am I doing wrong? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It broke with the 1.2 changes to allow stock to use custom icons. I've fixed it for the next release. It also used to be that the ones from contract packs would be added automatically, I've added support for that to happen, but it needs a change in Contract Configurator too (so you'll see it happen when both WPM and CC have their next releases).

Looks like there's no duplicate checking. I've added it for the next release. @msromike - No idea. I'm going to be releasing a new version shortly. If that doesn't fix it, then please provide a KSP.log file and I'll take a look (may be a bit, I'm catching up on a very big backlog right now). --- Back in the saddle, time for a new release! Download here! Waypoint Manager 2.6.1 Remove hack for custom waypoint icons (no longer needed in KSP 1.2). Move custom waypoints file into PluginData directory.

vicdoctor Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Thank you Nightingale for this essential mod!

Welcome back. Saw on the blog you've stepped back from squad to make room for life. It must have been a tough decision. Nevertheless, glad we-all in the community don't have to say goodbye altogether to your excellent work and support. Regarding the duplicate checking, something still seems off with v. 2.6.1 (see the images below). No duplicates in the list, but each custom waypoint seems to have a copy of itself behind it. Not sure if contract-generated waypoints are producing the same effect (edit: they are not). The effect is made more obvious in the second image, as the "shadow waypoint" is obscured by the game's UI, while the main one is not. Not a big deal... just triggered my OCD . Thought I'd bring it to your attention. Edited January 23, 2017 by Syntax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightingale Posted January 26, 2017 Author Share Posted January 26, 2017 @Syntax - Ah yes, I forgot that in stock KSP it now draws the markers for non-career games. Just snipped some code, should be good now. New release here! Waypoint Manager 2.6.2 Removed code for drawing waypoint markers when not in career mode - as of KSP 1.2 stock draws those markers (thanks Syntax).
