RemoteTech patches for the antenna parts

[Gordon-Dry]

The three antenna parts have no dedicated RemoteTech patches.

[Gordon-Dry]

I'm working on patches ...

[Gordon-Dry]

I suggest this one: GameData\TheWorldBeyond\Parts\RemoteTech_patch.cfg

// RemoteTech patches provided by Gordon Dry

@PART[TWB-VeryBigAntenna-25-1]:NEEDS[RemoteTech]
{
    %MODULE[ModuleRTAntenna]
    {
        %Mode0DishRange = 0
        %Mode1DishRange = 10000000000000
        %EnergyCost = 24
        %MaxQ = 1000
        %DishAngle = 0.001

        %DeployFxModules = 1
        %ProgressFxModules = 1

        %TRANSMITTER
        {
            %PacketInterval = 0.1
            %PacketSize = 12
            %PacketResourceCost = 50.0
        }
    }
    %MODULE[ModuleSPUPassive] {}
}

@PART[TWB-VeryBigAntenna-25-2]:NEEDS[RemoteTech]
{
    %MODULE[ModuleRTAntenna]
    {
        %Mode0DishRange = 0
        %Mode1DishRange = 100000000000000
        %EnergyCost = 32
        %MaxQ = 750
        %DishAngle = 0.001

        %DeployFxModules = 1
        %ProgressFxModules = 1

        %TRANSMITTER
        {
            %PacketInterval = 0.1
            %PacketSize = 24
            %PacketResourceCost = 75.0
        }
    }
    %MODULE[ModuleSPUPassive] {}
}

@PART[TWB-VeryBigAntenna-25-X]:NEEDS[RemoteTech]
{
    %MODULE[ModuleRTAntenna]
    {
        %IsRTActive = true
        %Mode0DishRange = 0
        %Mode1DishRange = 2500000000000000
        %EnergyCost = 32
        %MaxQ = 250
        %DishAngle = 0.001

        %DeployFxModules = 1
        %ProgressFxModules = 1

        %TRANSMITTER
        {
            %PacketInterval = 0.1
            %PacketSize = 32
            %PacketResourceCost = 100.0
        }
    }
    %MODULE[ModuleSPUPassive] {}
}

I have to admit that I have to test it - especially for the

        %DeployFxModules = 1
        %ProgressFxModules = 1

I changed :AFTER into :FOR - for reasons ...

[Gordon-Dry]

I don't clone this to my local Github because - it's huge.

[Gordon-Dry]

^ Changes - DishAngle = 0.001 for all antennas because in VAB lower values are rounded to 0.001 or even show 0.000

[Gordon-Dry]

btw the TWB-VeryBigAntenna-25-X got some wird animation issues in VAB.

• rotate works
• pivot works

^both a little quirky

• deploy (activate that thing) makes it jiggle like crazy.

Don't ever use :FOR unless it's :FOR the mod you're putting the config in.

Using :FOR[RemoteTech] in this config will tell module manager that Remote Tech is installed, even if Remote Tech is not installed. That means any patch that uses :NEEDS[RemoteTech] will activate, messing up the game for anyone who doesn't use Remote Tech.

[TheProtagonists]

The :FOR[RemoteTech] seems redundant and can cause problems. :NEEDS[RemoteTech] is sufficient.

[Gordon-Dry]

^ Edited.

[TheProtagonists]

I'll be adding the config you provided. Are you OK with the license of the mod of which this config will be under?

[Gordon-Dry]

This is just some config - I don't give a f about a license.

So take it and use it.

[TheProtagonists]

Added. Thanks!
