DANG IT!

A Random Failures Mod for Kerbal Space Program

Nicely cobbled together by Ippo ([email protected]) and rescued from oblivion by 602p

Latest incarnation is by Linuxgurugamer, with the Entropy add-on written by 602p merged into the mod

This mod requires the latest version of Module Manager to function, included in the zip file

dangit's Issues

[question]

Is a 1.7.3 update coming any time soon? CKAN won't let me install it without.
Also I appologize for the title.

Relative high prices for Spare Parts containers

Problem:
Parts with the ability to contain spare are cost up to 30times more than the same stock parts.
Eg. the Service Bay (1.25m) costs 9950$ compared to stock 500$. This seems extraordinary high considering you might not even want to store spare parts on some vessels.

Cause:
This seems to be the result of changes made in the SpareParts.cfg which besides adding the ability to store spare parts, increases the cost of the container.

Solution:
I suggest to lower the additional costs for the containers to be more inline with current stock balancing and cost per unit of storage in the "DangIt Repair Bay" part

No option to repair

Parts fail, but I don't get the option to repair.

1.4.3 with the Making History DLC, 64-bit with forced d3d11. Dangit is version 0.7.17

Ship is destroyed after failure in timewarp

sometimes when a part failure happens when in 100000x timewarp, the ship experiences either unexplainable heating or insane g-forces, causing craft destruction

Lag in editor with parts containing spareParts

Adding multiple parts to a craft with spareParts resource causes massive lag in the editor. One craft made of 500 fuel tanks causes no lag but a craft made of 10 command pods with spareParts drops frames from 60 to 15.

Alarm continues to sound

When I switch from my map view back to my vessel it beeps even tho there is nothing broken on it, it starts when something broke on a different vessel and persists across all vessels until I restart KSP, is there a fix for this that I am missing, any help would be greatly appreciated, I love this mod :) just wanna see if I can correct this issue.

No mute option available

I don't have an option in the context menu to mute an alarm for a part if it's broken, didn't show for a broken stock battery or a broken stock light.

Here is my mod list: https://pastebin.com/pYQB8HTm

Snacks! parts instantly leak

Suggestion: A difficulty option that makes leaks produce a small amount of thrust.

This could as a example cause a uncontrollable rotation because of a fuel leak, or a small constant trust in other directions.

Turn off part glow when F2 pressed (for screenshots)

[SUGGESTION] Warp-pauze

It's quite annoying to warp at like x1000 or higher and continuously having part failures every couple of seconds. Therefor I'd like to suggest an option for the player to set that will disable (some?) part failures above a certain warp rate.

ModuleManager 3.0.1 error in Tanks.cfg

ModuleManager version 3 indicates error in GameData/DangIt/ModuleManager/Tanks.cfg

Error message:
[ERR 22:45:15.321] [ModuleManager] Error - more than one pass specifier on a node: DangIt/ModuleManager/Tanks/@PART[*]:HAS[@RESOURCE[*],~name[PotatoRoid],!MODULE[NoFailureModules]]:FOR[DangIt]:FIRST

(see line 16920 in full log - KSP.log; mods.ckan )

Can't repair batteries after changing scenes

So, new log file, with only Dang It! Continued installed. Same behavior on two types of stock batteries. First failed and repaired them. Then failed them and switched to Space Center, then went back to the ship and tried to repair - with no success. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5EgBvGqWFb4aTVRR0x1MUhPc0U

Some modules are un-repairable

I am finding that a few modules seem to be un-repairable, in that the repair option does not show up. So far I have only seen this in two large parts, a 3.75m kerbitat (part of the MKS mod), and a hitchhiker that has been tweakscaled up to about 2x the size. It seems that the range for EVA repair is too small, and the size of these modules don't let you get close enough to get the options.

kRPC Compatibility?

kRPC compatibility would be very useful: it would allow external UIs to be built showing part failure modes etc, and allow those running mission control scenarios a more realistic way to interact with the mod. I have no experience at all with C, but hopefully it wouldn't be too difficult to implement compatibility using the kRPC Service API, and would be very much appreciated.

localization BUG

If you use other languages in KSP (e.g. German) some variables will be translated. So also "experienceTrait.TypeName". That's why every time I try to repair something, an error is thrown.

To fix the error you have to change the name of the variable in DangIt/blob/master/DangIt/Failure_modules/FailureModule.cs in line 820 from "kerbal.experienceTrait.TypeName" to "kerbal.experienceTrait.Config.Name".

Just to let you know: this isn't in CKAN anymore.

Add sensor fails for science experiments

I suggest adding a sensor failure type for:

• 2HOT Thermometer
• PresMat Barometer
• Double-C Seismic Accelerometer
• GRAVMAX Negative Gravioli Detector

I tried implementing it as follows but there are still ways of resetting the experiments when they fail by a scientist. I was unable to fix it because my solution depends on disabling the GUI but the experiments change their own GUI state when an action is performed (e.g. transmitting data or taking them out by a kerbal).

ModuleEnviroSensor sensor;
ModuleScienceExperiment experiment;

protected override void DI_Disable()
{
	this.sensor.sensorActive = false;
	this.sensor.Events["Toggle"].guiActive = false;

	this.experiment.Events["DeployExperiment"].guiActive = false;
	this.experiment.Events["DeployExperimentExternal"].active = false;
	this.experiment.Events["DeployExperimentExternal"].guiActive = false;
	this.experiment.Events["CleanUpExperimentExternal"].guiActive = false;
}

protected override void DI_EvaRepair()
{
	this.sensor.Events["Toggle"].guiActive = true;

	this.experiment.Events["DeployExperiment"].guiActive = true;
	this.experiment.Events["DeployExperimentExternal"].active = this.experiment.Events["DeployExperiment"].active;
	this.experiment.Events["CleanUpExperimentExternal"].guiActive = true;
}

Stock landing legs have tires

Stock landing legs have tires. They can fail (pop) and require a level 1 engineer to repair.

broken RCS thrusters are unrepairable after saving and loading

RCS thrusters after they break, after saving and reloading a game with the thrusters broken I'm unable to select the repair option for them any longer? (Repairing them initially seems fine, but loading after the game is saved with one in a broken state makes that one no longer repairable.)
