MHS at fixed 0.625 steps #597

Closed Jimbodiah closed 6 years ago

Jimbodiah commented 6 years ago

The heatshield can only be set at 0.625m increments. The slider on other parts (MFT, PDC, PPC etc) allows fine adjustments within that 0.625m step (like 1.50m).

Interesting -- must be a bug (typo) in the UI setup, or possibly incomplete code that is not setting the slider/increments properly.

Should be simple enough to fix up now that I'm aware of it. Thanks for the report :)

Jimbodiah commented 6 years ago

I was also going to add another issue regarding the the heatshield sticking out of the stock (different poly count than other parts?).

Yeah, it does, because it is (different poly/side count). Not sure who modeled it (its the stock model)...but it is obviously wrong no matter what stock part you try and use it with.

I'll see what I can do about splitting off the one of the existing CM's heat-shield as a stand-alone model, and use that for the MHS part. Sadly if/when I do, it will be potentially craft breaking due to the changes in geometry.

Jimbodiah commented 6 years ago

I think they didn't really care as they use that horrible shroud that sticks out.

A modular version of that HS you showed in your sstu topic would be awesome at some point in the future.

shadowmage45 commented 6 years ago

Indeed, probably a good idea at this point, and simple enough to do (considering I already have a procedural heat-shield material created).

Have just mocked up some geometry for a stand-alone heat-shield part, will see about getting it all exported and included for the next release.

Fixed; apparently I had 'increment 0.5', rather than the intended 'increment 0.05'.
