KSP_MOCR

A standalone program that connects to a kRPC-server, running on , and displays spacecraft/flight/orbital data

Quick-Start

Enter the IP/URL of the kRPC-server and click [CONNECT]. You can enter something more unique in the "Your ID:"-field, if you wish. The value in the "Your ID:"-field is displayed on the kRPC-server as "[Your ID] wants to connect. Allow/deny".

If a successful connection is made, the textline "kRPC: NOT CONNECTED" will change to "kRPC: CONNECTED".

To open different screens (panels) hold down [CTRL] and type the number of the screen. i.e. To open the Ascent module, press and hold [CTRL] and type [1], then release [CTRL].

For a list of available screens: [CTRL] + [0]

To set up the FDAI for launch type the following into the DSKY:

VERB 26 NOUN 20 ENTR
+00000 ENTR
+00000 ENTR
-09000 ENTR

The FDAI will be upside down, because this setup is based on a heads-down pitch-over manouver at due east.

If you want the FDAI the "right side up", with a a 72° launch angle do this:

VERB 26 NOUN 20 ENTR
+18000 ENTR
+00000 ENTR
-07200 ENTR

To set up the FDAI for a standard KSP "lean right" ascent:

VERB 26 NOUN 20 ENTR
+00000 ENTR
+00000 ENTR
-09000 ENTR

As it stands, the programs has the following screens:

  • Ascent
  • Booster
  • Resources
  • FDI (Orbital maneuver planning)
  • Altitude/Terrain-Height Graph
  • Altitude/Speed Plot
  • Pilot-mode, for controlling the spacecraft, with very simple DSKY

Pilot DSKY

Keyboard shortcuts for the DSKY are as follows:

ENTR - [E] (Sometimes the Enter/Return button works also. There is a bug somewhere.)
VERB - [V]
NOUN - [N]
CLR  - [C] (this clears the current active input, to correct any typing errors)
 +   - [+]
 -   - [-]
0-9  - [0]-[9]

The DSKY in the pilot-screen has the following VERBs and NOUNs implemented:

VERBS

* 16 - Monitor Noun in R1 or R1,R2 or R1,R2,R3
* 21 - Load component 1 into R1
* 26 - Load component 1,2,3 into R1,R2,R3
* 69 - Clear DSKY displays

NOUNS

* 17 - XXX.XX deg - Current vessel angles R,P,Y (Surface Reference)
* 18 - XXX.XX deg - Current vessel angles R,P,Y (Body Non Rotating Reference)
* 19 - XXX.XX deg - Current angles on FDAI
* 20 - XXX.XX deg - FDAI offset angles
* 29 - XXX.XX deg - Launch azimuth
* 36 - 000XX. hrs - Mission Elapsed Time
       000XX. min
       0XX.XX sec
* 44 - XXX.XX km - Apogee
       XXX.XX km - Perigee
       XXX.XX km - Current Altitude
* 73 - XXX.XX km - Altitude
       XXXX.X m/s - Orbital speed
       XXX.XX deg - Pitch angle

DSKY Examples
