Problem Ummu Walking on moon very difficult!

[ben bradford]

Hi all,
Recently i have installed Dan's DGIV and UCGO packages, i have been using these for sometime on Orbiter 06 pack. I had to uninstall and reinstall due to a system crash. After i reinstalled, and landed on the moon ready to set up a base, for some reason, ummu wants to move around using RCS thrusters! Before my pc crashed, this was not a problem as i was walking perfectly before! This is really annoying me now. I have tried installing Orbiter with the Base pack upgrade, still no result. If anyone else has had the same problem or has some sort of solution, that would be very helpful!!

And you are still using Orbiter 2006 or are you using 2010?

Sounds like you are missing a couple of DLL files which is causing the ummu to think it's still in space.

Try this fix suggested in this article for both the 'black sky' and 'g field 0.00' problems.

Ok thanks, just for an update, this is now happening when on EVA on mars. And yes, i am still using Orbiter 06

Right, just installed the fixes, says to simply copy them to the main orbiter directory, although i am still getting RCS thrusters being used on the moon and on mars.

That is your problem. You need 2010 for this add-on. Dan updated it for 2010 P1 only.

Can you provide any proof of that?

Dans website lists this for UCGO 2.0 -> 'Universal Cars and Cargos 2.0 (UCGO) (For ORBITER 2006 or 2010 !)'

As far as I am aware Dan has not done any work on recompiling UCGO for Orbiter 2010 and there are still some issues with cargo staying unpacked in Orbiter 2010.

I can see the sense in it if Dan has carried out an update for orbiter 10. Although plenty of people are still using orbiter 06, and orbiter 10 does have its problems with UCGO, e.g Cargo's are packed on the start of a scenario( even if unpacked before). Thats why i stayed away from Orbiter 10 for a while. As i mentioned earlier, this RCS problem v's walking never happened until a few months back, ever since i've stayed quiet and tried to resolve it, now its become a nuisance. Anyway, if it is the case that Dan has updated his addons, so be it, looks like we'll all have to cope with a packing error with base cargo's.
