Pricipia - Extraterrestrial Launchpads Intolerance? #3077
Comments
I can confirm the same issue with both any version of Extraplanetary launchpads or principia I tried, and Global Construction as well. |
After you used the "hack gravity" method, would you pass the new ship as normal? Will the fact that you disabled gravity in orbit affect the craft's trajectory? |
I assume there is no discernible effect one way or the other, as "hack gravity" does not disable gravity (unless you use the slider to take it to zero), only "relinquish control" from principia back to KSP patched conics. Technically, the orbit would be different the more you leave it hacked (as it is only taking into account the gravity of the main orbited body), but I believe the difference would be in the order of millimeters or so, probably less than the interaction of the new craft being released and pushed from your construction dock. |
I am not sure what you mean by "pass the new ship", but they are fully functional. You can release it with or without hacked gravity. Usually though because things sometimes get unstable with EL, I keep a save before finalise and after releasing a new ship, and usually load from the point of release just to be sure. |
I was just wondering if something about the new ship will be different, because you mentioned something about "in a weird state". Forgive my absolute ignorance in modding KSP. Thank you for providing that workaround, I would never have thought about that. |
My personal opinion would be to keep this open if the author's agree because the workaround is exactly that - a workaround. If it is possible to actually fix this issue it would be better. |
This is looking quite similar to EL issue #157, which unfortunately didn't make much progress. |
The game freezes when I finalize the construction of a new ship (a process where a new physically interactable vessel appears attached to EL's construction module, which then can be released). Since the last save is always before the point of release, this issue practically renders EL ineffective as a mod.
The Principia version is Grossmann, and EL is the latest version that was compatible with game version 1.8.1.
