  • Some minor bugfixes

Version 1.5.1

Released October 9, 2014

WARNING: the 1.5 release changes the mod's folder and DLL names from RemoteTech2 to RemoteTech. If you are upgrading from 1.4, you must delete the old RemoteTech2 directory before installing this version. We take NO RESPONSIBILITY for any bugs that may happen from having both RemoteTech and RemoteTech2 in your GameData folder.

Bug Fixes:

  • Can now read settings files from RemoteTech 1.4 or earlier.
  • Map view will no longer crash when centering on different vessels.
  • FASA antennas won't crash when transmitting science.
  • FASA launch clamps now provide a communications line, just like stock clamps.
  • Flight computer now uses Kerbin or Earth days, as appropriate.
  • Tech tree node for integrated omni antenna now displays correctly.

Version 1.5.0

Released October 7, 2014

WARNING: this release changes the mod's folder and DLL names from RemoteTech2 to RemoteTech. You must delete the old RemoteTech2 directory before installing this version. We take NO RESPONSIBILITY for any bugs that may happen from having both RemoteTech and RemoteTech2 in your GameData folder.

Features:

  • Compatible with KSP 0.25.
  • The mod has officially been renamed from RemoteTech 2 to RemoteTech. Ignore the warning above at your own peril.
  • Vessel lists in antenna targeting window and in map view can now be customized using the map view filters (thanks to monstah for the suggestion!)
  • If you use FAR or NEAR, you can now protect antennas from breaking by putting them inside a fairing.
  • The number of crew needed to both operate a command station and fly a ship can now be configured on a part-by-part basis.
  • B9 and FASA parts now officially supported.
  • The 3 km omni upgrade to probe cores now appears in the tech tree.
  • Module Manager patches now support MM2 features, including :BEFORE, :FOR, and :AFTER patch ordering.
  • Updated KSP-AVC support, including more flexible KSP version requirements. Can now use KSP-AVC to download release notes in-game.

Rule Changes:

  • Flight computer clocks will keep running even if the vessel runs out of power (though you still need power to actually do anything). This is a workaround for a KSP bug that causes energy consumption to be overestimated at maximum time warp.

Bug Fixes:

  • Icons in map view easier to understand.
  • Research will now be completely transmitted in 64-bit KSP.
  • Pointing a dish at Mission Control from a fresh RemoteTech install will no longer corrupt saves.
  • Ships will no longer have signal delay many times larger than they should.
  • Flight computer will now take engine gimbaling into account when slewing.
  • KSP should no longer crash when running the flight computer on a ship with no rotation torque.
  • RemoteTech modules will no longer be added twice to the same part.
  • If a ship is loaded while out of contact and uncontrollable, you will no longer be able to toggle controls or action groups.
  • RemoteTech config files will no longer appear to be on one line when opened in a text editor that only recognizes Windows line endings.
  • Nonstandard RemoteTech installations will no longer cause missing (a.k.a. "pink") textures.

Version 1.4.1

Released August 28, 2014

Features:

  • Compatible with KSP 0.24. Some part costs have changed.

Bug Fixes:

  • Flight computer now slews much more accurately and efficiently.
  • Flight computer will now take RCS thrust into account when slewing.
  • Signal delay window is now sized properly for all Flight GUI settings.
  • Ships can now be renamed from the right-click menu at any time. Note that they can still be renamed from the tracking station.
  • Reverted 1.4.0 fix for electric charge consumption at higher time-warp factors (fix was causing electricity use to be underestimated).
  • Fixed conflicts with mods that depend on RemoteTech.
  • Reduced logging should cause less lag.

Version 1.4.0

Released June 16, 2014

Features:

  • KSP-AVC Support
  • EXEC commands are now executed at the correct time in advance of the maneuver node (accounts for signal delay and vessel acceleration)
  • Added logging to API - useful for developers of mods that wish to interact with RT - requires VERBOSE_DEBUG_LOG = True in settings.cfg

Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed display of execution delay for simple commands such as running experiments
  • Significantly reduced occurrences of the dreaded 'vessel duplication' bug
  • Fixed display of the Flight Computer icon below the time-warp/clock display in the upper-left of the screen
  • Fixed electric charge consumption at higher time-warp factors
