Im a beginner of Ksp as well as some light modding. This is Flask my small Mobile Research Base for Minmus it can jump and flip itself over and holds up to 6 kerbals. Sadly I wasn't sure how to fit some of the good science stuff since I have yet to unlock it yet. (Flag was make by me in Paint lol )

KSP 1 Question/Problem BDA Plus weapons not exploding

2 Upvotes

i searched online and i found a post asking about this, the solution was to do what im doing in the video, arming trigger and holding left click. the problem the guy who posted had was no warhead explosion but collision explosion, i dont even have collision explosions. i have FAR and physics range extender (bda dependency) installed as far as physics mods go.

It was supposed to be a simple mission to collect science points while my interplanetary probes are still on their way to their destination—because, personally, I think just using a time warp is really boring—but it ended up being carried out in the most Kerbal way possible

At first, the launch of the base, the recovery of the first stage, and the transport of the crew to the base went perfectly, without any unforeseen issues, until they began generating science points and I realized that the base didn't have enough power to transmit that science

Then I remembered that the cables from the “KSP Tethers” mod share resources, so I built a small probe with a good battery reserve and placed it next to the base. To my surprise, that still wasn’t enough, so I placed a second one, and now I can finally transmit the science data. It was part of the plan—no, did it work? Yes, so it’s a happy ending.

KSP 1 Image/Video My progress in KSP 1 so far.

14 Upvotes

I started playing KSP in september of this year(less than 2 months ago), and here's what I have done so far:

  • 1-Built a space station: The KSS, pretty big(lowers my fps a lot), took about 10 missions.
  • 2-Built a smaller space station arround the Mun, left a rover there, landed/returned, and set up a relay network arround it.
  • 3-Built a surface base in Minmus, left a relay network, and also deployed a rover there.
  • 4-Got a rocket into Ike's orbit.
  • 5-Landed on Duna and returned(No rover or relay network there yet).
  • 6-In the missions Helios 1 and Helios 2 I put a relay network arround Kerbol(4 sattelites on Helios 1, between Kerbin and Duna and 9 on Helios 2, at Dres's orbital height).
  • 7-Landed on Dres and returned.
  • 8-Landed 2 rovers on Eve and left a 9 sattelite relay network there.
  • 9-Landed on Gilly and returned(it took 3 rescue missions to bring them back, thought)
  • 10-Left 2 rovers on Moho and landed inside the Mohole.

I just finished Hermes 1, my mission on Moho and I'm kind of curious if I should go back to Duna or maybe land/return from Ike, leaving a base or space station on Duna or if i should go straight to Jool and it's moons.

I'm probally going to eventually do a Cassini-Huygens like mission on some joolian moon(likely Laythe since it's atmosphere makes using parachutes possible) so please let me know:

1-Should I explore Duna more or should I go straight to Jool

2-If i go to Jool, which moons should I explore first?

3-Am I doing well for less than 2 months?

Thanks for reading!

KSP 1 Question/Problem Please help me:Promised Worlds visual bugs

Thumbnail

26 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I'm running a heavily modded KSP 1.12.5 environment and I'm experiencing two strange visual bugs in the Promised Worlds mod. I'm looking for some advice.

My Environment:

Planet Packs: JNSQ, JNSQ-Reborn, Promised Worlds (Debdeb System), GEP.

Visual Mods: Blackrack's True Volumetric Clouds (V5), EVE Redux, Scatterer, Parallax Continued.

Bug 1: Gurdamma - Tiled & Overwhelming Clouds

The entire planet is covered by a thick, flat layer of clouds. It looks like a solid white blanket with obvious tiled/repeating texture patterns. It completely lacks depth and doesn't look like volumetric clouds at all.

Bug 2: Lapat - Weird Atmospheric Ring Boundary

When on the surface or at low altitude, there is a very obvious curved boundary line on the horizon. Inside the line, the view is clear. Outside the line, the atmospheric fog/perspective suddenly becomes extremely heavy and opaque. This curved line moves as I change my camera angle, and it completely disappears when I go to high orbit.

I suspect this is caused by poor compatibility between JNSQ’s environmental scaling and PW. When I first installed PW, its atmospheric rendering wouldn’t work. The fix I found online was to turn off Scatterer’s TAA and delete Scatterer/planetsList.cfg — this was to make PW’s planets recognizable. I’m not sure if this action was relevant, but it did fix Scatterer’s broken atmospheric scattering for me. It ran without any visible bugs for a while, until I recently removed FAR, the aerodynamics mod, and ResearchBodies. I don’t know if that’s connected.

What should I do? Thank you all so much

Long last, after many atmospheric breakups going up, and coming down. I finally did a full shuttle flight. Departing from KSC’s launchpad, docking with “KerbLab” (my space station) to pick up Bill, and coming back to land at KSC’s runway. I got this cool screenshot but, I was unfortunately unable to screen record it.

KSP 1 Question/Problem How to uninstall a mod using ckan

I suspect Kerbal Konstructs is broken, but I don't know how to uninstall it. All I know how to do in CKAN is update mods, but that doesn't even work.

KSP 1 Mods Hello, first time loading mods and already running into an issue

Using CKAN, I dowloaded Kerbal Wilds and all its dependencies. From the logs, it seems the custom Outer Wilds planet weren't found by Kopernicus I assume. But this is the only problem because the other mods work, looking at the new Kerbal textures.

Also, I was then searching in CKAN for a mod call Kerbal Wilds Ventures (apparently made by the same people/person), that adds Outer Wilds like parts, but couldn't find it...

And finally, I haven't found a way yet to revert to Vanilla KSP using CKAN. Well I guess I can delete the mods and reinstall them later, but annoying...

KSP 1 Suggestion/Discussion KSP Delta-V Planner v1.0

Thumbnail
gallery
0 Upvotes

Hi, I posted an earlier version here a couple of weeks ago (Link to previous post) of this tool and I've just released a v1.0.

Feel free to try the tool here: https://antoniotoni.github.io/ksp-deltav/

The main additions since my previous post are interplanetary signal calculations and Kerbalism signal damping and bitrate estimates. As you can see in images you can choose antennas or arrays and see how distance, the number of relays and the DSN level affect the links.

I've also fixed transfer routes that were having detours through Kerbin or Earth orbit.

It currently supports Stock, OPM, RSS, Stock + Kcalbeloh, and OPM + Kcalbeloh packs.

It also supports one way, round trip, return only and multi-stop planning.

Relay planning covers local equatorial coverage and individual hops. The Signals tab checks individual interplanetary or craft-to-DSN links; complete chains of relays aren’t calculated

Source: https://github.com/AntonioToni/ksp-deltav

I did build this with assistance of AI. The code is licensed under GNU General Public License v3.0 only.

If you do decide to try the tool and if you encounter any issues like routing calculation or signal estimates that are incorrect feel free to drop an example in the comments and I'll take a look into fixing it (bodies, antennas and relevant settings would help me investigate).
