Cant remove part after being surface attached in VAB/SPH...Also no right click menu...


Recommended Posts

So, I am an absolute newb, and am trying to get my first ever part working in KSP.

First, I got the part to load, with a partial(?) texture in KSP. Everything seemed to work fine, except it was missing some graphics in the texture.

I couldnt figure out what was going on, but I'm guessing I had more than one material assigned to it...So I scrapped it and started fresh.

NOW, the textures are perfect, but once I surface attach the part, i cant pull it off, and also now the right click menu doesnt appear at all. (Its a GPS antenna, using a module from figaro), which appeared and was functional before.... ???

Also, how big should the collider be?...ie SAME size as the part, slightly smaller, or slightly larger?...

Any insight would be muchly appreciated...

That's usually caused by a lack of collider, the collider is set to trigger, or set to a layer which prevents it being clickable.

Colliders should be primitives if you can manage, or mesh (with convex ticked) if you must. A rough approximation for the part size and shape is absolutely fine.

Kewl...Thank You, lo-fi!

I was leaning toward it being something up with the collider....just wanted to make sure before I went through reimporting everything into Unity again...

Which is what i did...I guess the collider was slightly too low on the Y axis...Everything seems to be workingas it should now... :) ... Now I just need to figure out how to make this thing use electricity, and then i should be all set to actually use it...Thanx again!
