Without seeing your design: 1) Is Thrust inline with Lift and Mass? I believe CoL is also CoDrag in this representation, so having Lift above thrust will pitch the nose up. 2) Are any of your wing surfaces moving more than a couple feet, like unbraced wings? 3) Show us your

Where are my surface samples?! I wanted to take samples of the launchpad. Also, why do you still have to click on (a possibly annoyingly moving) cockpit to get/transmit a survey?

Wooten posted:I must be missing something because when I start a new game all the buildings are already fully upgraded. What am I doing wrong? Same here. Buildings appear fully upgraded but in-game it tells me "upgrade x building to use x feature". It seems to be a problem with the x64 version. Starting a new game on the 32bit exe fixed it for me.

Steelion posted:So wait, when a probe contract requires power, does that mean it needs a solar panel? 'Cause I don't have those unlocked. The requirements for "polar orbit within reasonable deviation" and "stable for 10 secs" are both checked off, but the contract won't complete. The contract wouldn't have appeared on your board if you didn't have a power source researched. You might have a solar panel available, or an RTG. That particular objective specifies that the probe have an antenna, a power source, and an unmanned probe, and the probe has to be new, meaning every piece of it was launched after the contract was accepted.

Arsonide, if your NDA allows you to tell us, how did you implement your mod in the game? Did you recode it natively in the game or just integrate your (modified) mod DLL into the game?

My first Mun landing (I've crashed plenty of times). I was even able to get it back to Kerbin afterwords. It was a good learning experience, but I'll never construct any kind of monstrosity like this one ever again and try to land it.

Yeah I don't have any power generators except the engine alternators. I only have the tech level 3 researched, and I don't even have that filled out. The small solar panel isn't until the next level. The probe has a core, batteries, and antenna.

Procedural Fairings, KAS, Firespitter, Roverdude's Sounding Rockets and Karbonite (+)... But none of the parts I have unlocked have anything to do with power except the sounding rocket nosecone, which just operates like a battery that can't be recharged. Could the mod be mistaking the Launch Stability Tower as a generator (due to mod interactions or whatever)? It does generate power, but I obviously can't take it with me.

Just found the source of this. The launch clamp part has a generator module on it for some reason. I guess to keep you charged up pre-launch. It's causing you to get satellite contracts a bit early, as they wait for you to research a generator. You'll need a solar panel or something on that satellite to complete it. EDIT: And now I actually read your post, that's exactly what you said.

If you open it in an old version of KSP and remove those parts, it'll work. If you don't have an old version of KSP, you could try editing the ship files, but that might not work depending on how you built it.

0.25 is still available on their website. E: Logikv9, if you don't have access and are really attached to your design, I could load it up and delete the part(s) in question. People are commenting that things fly differently, so I'm not sure if it would be fruitful, though. Corky Romanovsky fucked around with this message at 05:54 on Dec 16, 2014 |

Oh man, life with the basic launch pad is rough. With 17.9 out of 18 tons I was able to complete the orbit contract and come home, but just barely. Now I've got to earn enough to outfit for a mun mission while dropping hundreds of thousands on building upgrades for basic features that I took for granted, and I'm only playing on moderate! I love it.
