Just started playing again, thought .90 helped a ton with x64 stability, why are some modders still being shitlords about it?

Duodecimal posted:

Don't forget the " -force-opengl" command line parameter.

I'm running just under 50 mods (just about every Roverdude mod plus DDS loader (and ran the DDS converter with some exceptions)). After ... 12 hours my memory usage is just over 2 GB.

I've given up on 64bit for now. Between DDS and opengl I'm always more than a gig below the CTD trigger using way more mods than I did before.

Got a modlist?

Kinda wish there was a mod that showed how much ram each mod used. Memoryusage is fine but I'd still like that.

also has anyone made a mod that lets you tweak stuff more precisely?

It's really tiring that you can't be ultra precise with stuff that needs to be, like fuel amounts on srb's for example.

Okay, something is majorly hosed with my modlist, not getting any science nine times out of ten, maybe it's flight manager and stage recovery fighting over stuff? Checked the logs and it seems like it's pushed back to the launchpad, so probably flight manager.

Ah yeah true, just thinking about how to make these individual mods (many of them yours) actually fun to use with this new framework. I think you're right then that on the Regolith side proper the key is to make the depletion nodes much smaller than Kethane did them.

I think that if you provided some support for super-concentrated but extremely local areas that would not be visible from space you would encourage ground exploration more than driving around for hours looking for concentration numbers to go up.

These concentrations might even be marked by ground objects like the procedural easter eggs Arsonide was working on at one point for Fine Print. A system like this would allow for mods to contribute all kinds of procedural rocks and geysers and everything else.

This just makes me want a tiberium resource, slowly replenishing if you don't remove all of it, deadly to kerbals :v:

KSP modding really confuses me sometimes, I'm running into an out of memory a few hours in, so I look at what mods I'm not using and noticed I haven't really used KAX, I remove it and the game doesn't want to load, it's literally just a part pack with no dll. Loads fine if I add it again.

Though I really love this satellite launcher I've made, really shallow trajectory, just needs a 50d/v bump from the ion engine to complete the orbit.

Yeah I am seeing a lot of multi-drill rigs. So IMO the right answer is.. bigger drills But also make some appropriate incentives to go small or go large based on the mission.

Also, you can still have multi-resource drills like you do today.

Until you make a drill that can pierce the heavens, you haven't made a big enough drill.

What I brought back from devnote Tuesday is that the tail of a plane is used for pushing the nose up. So a couple of minor revisions later and I have a plane with its wings nearly all the way back and an angled tail that flies totally differently to anything I've ever built. Holy crap! Thanks Squad!

Something that really helped me was looking at the different ww2 planes in warthunder and doing test flights to see how they flew.

For someone called flowerchild, he's an angry angry thing.

Also just had a brilliant idea for a mod, how possible would this be? It's mainly meant to mitigate long rear end burns.

make node>start firing>plugin calculates for say, a minute if it's stable, then checks if you lose sight of the sun in the case it's not stable if you're not stable without solar power>if everything is green, teleport forward in time to the point where you'd be when the node is complete.

I've been playing with the version I linked and no menu issues.

I am however getting a weird bug where if I launch a ship that has multiple parts docked together, and then dock it with my space station, I become unable to go to the space center or switch to other distant ships using the map. And since there is no easy way to exit to main menu I have to quicksave and alt-f4. Very annoying but after one more docking I should be done with this station, hopefully.

That's what I mean by the menus borking.

How is the game even without it, haven't played without it in forever, is it still pretty wobbly ~~dicks~~ rockets/planes?

Yeah, I'd really love a mobile set that's like, a really mobile tier that can only keep like two kerbals stocked or something, that you can use for like small rover bases.

I threw in MKS and USI (they are different aren't they, its all very confusing) with CKAN and I'm at the stage where I'm ready to move on from Kerbin orbit and visit the moons, do stations and so on. Is there any particular interface I should be seeing in the toolbar or whatever so I can make proper guesstimates about necessary materials so my dudes don't suffocate/starve/dehydrate en-route?

each part says how many kerbals it can support, so take the orbital parts, I think it says 10 kerbals.

Nalesh: Jun 9, 2010; What did the grandma say to the frog?

That's what I mean, the generators can only keep a max number of kerbals stocked per part, so your station is only as sustainable as your lowest number part.

Really wish there were MKS parts to support like one or two kerbals that aren't huge as gently caress, maybe reuse the square karbonite generator model for it? Would help a lot with making small outposts.
Would do it myself if I knew more about how to use module manager to make new parts.

They do, but they're insanely huge when considering that they supply like ten kerbals, and are like 2.5m parts, not really something easily portable for a mobile outpost that houses one or two kerbals.

I still wish there was a mod that added contracts/general support for contracts to be able to put stuff on the surface of planets. Like say rescuing stranded kerbals, refueling bases, hell even destroy objectives with bdarmory where they can fight back due to the automation in that.

Since it's using regolith now, the release version of scansat can't track it, use the dev version.

A small launch vehicle and capsule is probably going to wind up much easier and cheaper than a space plane. But in answer to your question, anything with an active heat shield will be shielded from heat, and anything with the ablative resource will consume that resource for heat gained above ~600C.

The thing about the SSTO is that it's only gonna cost the fuel you use on the way, and hell, if you have karbonite you can just have a small rig next to the landing strip to refuel it instead of reclaiming it.

Yeah my biggest hassle with FAR is that I've never managed to get MechJeb to do a proper ascent with FAR installed, it always overcooks the turn and the ship disintegrates. Flying every ascent by hand is pretty tedious, especially when you're starting a new save and have to do a dozen launches to get your RemoteTech network up and running.

max 20m/s accel, limit angle of attack, lowest possible turn start(think it's 600 something) has worked well for me.
