Could you please also provide a short video to demonstrate the sequence? Logs would help too.
Bad YouTube link.
So, the problem is actually wider. Any decoupling, made by not KAS
, results in resetting of the DOCKING mode on all the KAS
parts. It's not winch specific. Simple steps to reproduce:
I just watch the corrected youtube.
Did you notice what happened with the PAW?
When the decoupling occurs the sprite line between the part and PAW goes straight up off-screen.
I'm not a blender expert (I don't even qualify as a noob.) But I'll be there is a collider that gets "decoupled" that shouldn't.
When I was debugging it I kind of thought it was a deeper problem than the fix I did but I wasn't really sure. That's unfortunate, glad I saved you debugging time at least.
For now I compiled a version of KAS with my "fix" which works well enough for the features I'm using at the moment
Fixed by this pull request https://github.com/ihsoft/KAS/pull/298#issuecomment-662840917
Steps to reproduce:
KSP version: 1.8.1 KAS version: 1.6
Provided craft file is set up for this. Note the direction of the decoupler on top. Launch vessel and decouple the decoupler. Note how the struts stay intact and the winch stays locked Go back to the VAB and put the decoupler upside down Repeat decoupling in flight Note how the struts break and there are now two distinct crafts connected with the winch and a cable length of 0.
