| − | == Is this Wiki dead or something? ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | There’s been no wiki news for years, and apparently there are still Migration Problems going on 3 years later. Is everything dead? Is this place fixable? Please someone explain to me.

| − | -Harry_Robinson
| |
| − | :Dead, no. Grossly under-resourced since eg: lots of people are volunteers with sometimes limited interest and/or time due to their studies, yes. [[User:UmbralRaptor|UmbralRaptor]] ([[User talk:UmbralRaptor|talk]]) 03:07, 15 March 2018 (UTC)

| |
| − | Oh. Thanks for the reply though. I’m gonna try to help out then; I’d feel bad if I didn’t after how much this wiki has helped me over the years.

| − | == With every update coming out, it takes so long to create pages for new content ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | It's October 27 now, 3 weeks since KSP 0.25 release. Does it take that long to create dedicated wiki pages for new parts and stock craft? I ended up starting some stubs for the new 0.25 parts.<small>— [[User:Deepspacecreeper|Deepspacecreeper]] ([[User talk:Deepspacecreeper|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Deepspacecreeper|contribs]]) 8:27pm, 27 October 2014 (PDT)</small>
| |
| − | :I've already a bot which creates all those infoboxes. In theory (if I find the time) it could also create stub part pages so other authors can expand them easier. But currently I haven't time to add that but hopefully with the next release this is going to work. But apart from that, someone has to create them so why not you as you now did? It took some time but if nobody had found the time/muse to do I can't command others to add pages ;) . — [[User:XZise|xZise]] <small>[[[User talk:XZise|talk]]]</small> 13:58, 30 October 2014 (CDT)

| − | == Recent events wrong dates ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Recent event for 1.2.2 is incorrect, stated as 1 Nov 2016, should be 6 Dec 2016. Front page is semi-protected, soI can't change it.

| |
| − | Recent events 0.19 and 0.18 dates are wrong as they were released in 2012.

| |
| − | :That is not correct. 0.18.2 was released 2012 but every update after that was released 2013. I've been playing KSP since December 2012 with 0.18.2. Also [[version history#v0.18.3 .28Demo.29]] agrees with me. — [[User:XZise|xZise]] <small>[[[User talk:XZise|talk]]]</small> 10:24, 22 October 2013 (CDT)
| |
| − | ::Strange. I have started in 0.19 and remember reading somewhere from this wiki that 0.19 was released in August/September 2012.

| − | == Fan-made Tool section ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | There's plenty of online tools for calculations related to the game (orbits, Δv etc.) and there isn't a forum thread or wiki page that has at least a rudimentary list of them, which I think would be beneficial. If it's ok, I'd like to make one here on the wiki for inclusion on the main page (as it seems the logical place to put it imho) - I don't think the forum would be ideal for this as it would require me (or whoever creates the thread) to be the sole maintainer, unlike the wiki. --[[User:MechaLynx|MechaLynx]] ([[User talk:MechaLynx|talk]]) 22:40, 10 April 2014 (CDT)
| |
| − | :Go ahead and create such a repository. There was actually such a list, although pretty short, on [[addon]]. Now it was removed, because the lists on there weren't really maintained, but you can find it [http://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/w/index.php?title=Addon&oldid=32512#Tools_and_applications here]. If it's good I'll add it to the main page. You can also add a link to [[Tutorials]]. — [[User:XZise|xZise]] <small>[[[User talk:XZise|talk]]]</small> 10:01, 12 April 2014 (CDT)

| − | ::I've started working on it, should be done within the next couple of days, time permitting. I'd like to delay posting a link until it's ready if that's ok. (edit: I just realised it's super easy to get a link lol :P was just worried about trollish interference, but I guess that's a moot point now) --[[User:MechaLynx|MechaLynx]] ([[User talk:MechaLynx|talk]]) 21:39, 14 April 2014 (CDT)
| |
| − | ::Uh, dude the page has been ready for some while now. I know you're busy but it's just standing there being useless. I'll add a link to [[Tutorials]] soon so that there's at least something linking to it (I think it's good enough to be linked somewhere on the wiki, but I won't add a link on the main page unless you or some other mature member does so). --[[User:MechaLynx|MechaLynx]] ([[User talk:MechaLynx|talk]]) 10:04, 29 April 2014 (CDT)

| − | ::::Thanks mate. I only made one article though :P Is it ok if I announce it on the forums so that tool authors know that it's there? --[[User:MechaLynx|MechaLynx]] ([[User talk:MechaLynx|talk]]) 19:07, 29 April 2014 (CDT)

| − | == Template questions... ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | I'm a noob at editing Wikis and this one is kinda complicated, with the data templates and all. Is there guidance somewhere on how to approach it all? I'd like to help out with updating stuff if poss.
| |
| − | Also, queries about two things I have noticed: firstly, edits to templates don't show up in "Recent changes" - is this intentional? Secondly, the recent (1.11) mass changes for some parts caused me to look at their info on the wiki. For the Cupola, I can see that there are now 2 different mass values showing up - the old (now incorrect) one in the main Parts page, and the new one which is in the sidebar thingy on the Cupola's own wiki page. The correct mass has been adjusted within a template by ArnePeirs a few days ago, but the incorrect one is presumably in a different data template... this leads to the fairly obvious question "why is the data stored in more than one place?". [[User:Neilski|Neilski]] ([[User talk:Neilski|talk]]) 19:15, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
| |
| − | :If you can't see edits to templates in "Recent changes" try changing some options in the "Recent changes options" section above the list of changes. As for the all the different data templates, I'm working on an unifaction of all this data but it's hard to track all the different templates used on the pages. I can make sure the templates are all using the same information, but a value that's just copy/pasted from a template can get outdated. --[[User:ArnePeirs|ArnePeirs]] ([[User talk:ArnePeirs|talk]]) 10:14, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

| − | == Why is “Dres” In the planet list? ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Dres is in the planet list on the main page even though it is considered a dwarf planet. If dwarf planets should be added in the planet list, Why isn’t Eeloo in the planet list. I would like to know the answer to my question.
| |
| − | <br />
| |
| − | By the way, The planet list is that black box in the main page with all the planets in them.
| |
| − | :For me every planet is shown in the planet list. If you can't see Eeloo, try to scroll to the right. --[[User:ArnePeirs|ArnePeirs]] ([[User talk:ArnePeirs|talk]]) 10:03, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

| |
| − | == KSP2 and this wiki ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Will this wiki cover KSP2, or will it focus solely on KSP 1? There's already pages with teased KSP2 content (e.g. [[Gurdamma]]), which are nice to have right now. However, it doesn't seem feasible to continue this long-term; KSP2 will inevitably have differences from KSP1, which can lead to contradicting information on the wiki.
