Advanced Question RMS attachment to 2 docked modules with spacecraft3

Interceptor · Mar 5, 2013

Hello,this is a crazy question,but I was trying to attach two docked modules to the spacecraft3 RMS,and when I did the modules became undocked,is there a work around,or fix for this problem,so that you could move the two docked modules docked together with the SC3 RMS arm?Thanks

MaverickSawyer · Mar 5, 2013

That's odd, I thought that the docking took precedence... Look at Tex's OFSS video; the module detached from the RMS and docked itself. This is quite curious indeed.

Donamy · Mar 5, 2013

I think you mean they were attached. It depends which one you try to grab, wiht the RMS. You can only grab the parent.

Interceptor · Mar 5, 2013

OK,Donamy,so If I grab the module that's the parent first with the RMS it should still stay docked with the child,while moving it with the RMS?

Code:

; === Configuration file for Solaris ===

ClassName = solaris
Module = Spacecraft3
Mass = 4e3
Size = 6.0
EnableXPDR = TRUE
XPDR = 8


; === Docking ports ===
BEGIN_DOCKLIST
0 0 7.15  0 0 1  -1 0 0
END_DOCKLIST

; === Attachment specs ===
BEGIN_ATTACHMENT
P 0 -0.1 -1  -1 0 0  0 0 1 XS
P 1.3 0 4.1   1 0 0  0 0 -1 GS
END_ATTACHMENT

Code:

; === Configuration file for Neesys ===

Meshname = Neesys
Mass = 150000
EnableXPDR = TRUE
XPDR = 40


; === Docking ports ===

END_DOCKLIST

; === Attachment specs ===
BEGIN_ATTACHMENT
P -0.5 0 1.1  -1 0 0  0 0 -1 XS
P 2.20 -0.01 7.03   1 0 0  0 0 -1 GS

P -2.20 0.02 -7.03   -1 0 0  0 0 -1 GS
END_ATTACHMENT

What do I need to add,or change in the config to have this work correctly?

Donamy · Mar 6, 2013

Not docked ! You can only grab things that are attached and with the GS ID.

I need to see the scenario for the 2 vessels.

Here ya go,the modules,are just floating in the Resolves bay,because I sent them up as a payload,and pressed the J key twice to unnattach them.
