1.11.2 Bug Alert! Docking Port Jr. Weaked Docking Force
There seems to be an issue now with the docking force of the Clamp-o-tron Docking Port Jr. It’s just very hard now to get these ports to connect. I changed the docking force setting from 100 to 200 (on both this vehicle and my cargo plane that I was trying to dock with) and now you REALLY have to line the ports of perfectly to get the things to connect even with a 200 max force setting. Before with settings at 100 the docking force was fine and it was easy to dock craft. Now it’s more of a challenge and makes missions less fun. Very disappointing to have game updates render your vehicles nearly impossible to use.
It is possible the bugs were introduced sometime before 1.11.2 and I am just now noticing them. I know for a fact they did not exist in version 1.7.1 else I would’ve pointed them out in my update notes.
Design Notes
The Cudafish
continues to be my go-to design for career mode submersible missions. Little known fact that there are indeed 5 World First Milestones
for Deepest Dive
right off the coast of the KSC! You can earn 9,600 credits, 1 Science, and 2 Prestige points at: 10m, 20m, 80m, 240m, and 750m for just rolling this craft off the runway and into the waters near the KSC. So that’s a total of: 48,000 credits, 5 Science, and 10 Prestige in your Career Mode game just for downloading this craft!
You may have noticed, it fits in a Mk3 Cargo Bay… and yes, there are other planets with oceans… Could they have deepest dive achievements too? I guess you’ll just have to find out!
