OHM UMMUFA v.2.0

[OrbitHangar]

Author: computerex

UMMUFA is an orbiter module that extends the UMMU functionality to every vessel in the simulation that has a docking port.Â*

UMMU Crew Management by Dan Steph is required before installing this add-on (An excellent universal crew management add-on).Â*

http://orbiter.dansteph.com/index.php?disp=d

Changes -Â*

* Crew information is saved inside the scenario itself! No more fussing with the extra cfg files...I have no idea as to why I didn't do this in the first place.Â*
* Bug fixes, ejection effects, minor changes.
* Linked with the latest release of UMMU (v.2.0)

For this release, the most important change is that the crew information is saved inside the scenario itself, so quicksaving/scn editor saving should work perfectly fine.Â*

Installation:

1. Install UMMU if not already installed (link above).
2. Extract UMMUFA package in the orbiter directory keeping the directory structure intact.Â*
3. Activate the module in the module tab in the launchpad.Â*
4. Launch the UMMUFA-Quickstart scenario to give it a test.Â*

EXCELLENT !!

This also appears to solve the need to define the location of the airlock on the selected vessel !
Great Job !!!

Review by mgisliveevil
Pros: Easy, in sim UMMUing
Cons: Manual a little confusing
Review:
Yes yes yes! Now every dockable ship in orbiter UMMU capable. Manual hard to understand but was UMMUing and saving state after a few tries. Thank you thank you thank you! UMMUFA Forever!!!


Review by napes weaver
Pros: Totally Freaking Fantastic!!!
Cons: How can there be cons?
Review:
Some folk want to downplay the utility of peoples, but I feel that it really does add a whole new order of magnitude, imagination-wise, when distilling scenarios. Thank you sooo much!!! Some times I have problems with transfer crew to certain ships...they end up with new names and in space. Probably a bug on my end that I need to track down...I do run ALOT of mods. Thanks again for this needed add-on!


Review by phantomcruiser
Pros: UMMU where there was none before.
Cons: Have to tweak craft that are already UMMU capable
Review:
This is too cool for words. A few keystrokes is all it takes to add crew to your ship. This really helps with the "immersion" into the missions. Fan-frackin-tastic!

 

[James.Denholm]

Wait, Yoda... airlocks need no longer be defined?

*cries with glee*

 

[tl8]

It is a blessing and a curse in my eyes

 

[James.Denholm]

You can't be serious. A curse?

 

[tl8]

You can't be serious. A curse?

Yes, now you have to define docking ports for a airlock, imagine 6 docking ports on the SwiftSS

 

[James.Denholm]

That's just... strange...

Anyways, you can always use that "Docking Port Revealer" to identify them.

 

[IronRain]

Thanks for this add-on... works very nice!

one question.. is there a way to delete the messages that comes up in the left side of the screen??

 

[Fixerger]

That module conflicts with Thorton ISS.

UMMUFA module (or ISS code) is causing CTD when you are changing ISS attach point by D key (after PMA). So before making some attach/detach procedures i recommend anyone to disable that module. Access violation screen: http://omploader.org/vNGxrNg

 

[HAL9001]

well, how to eva the UMMU?

 

[garyw]

Key commands are listed in the readme for this addon

 

[Spacethingy]

:thumbup:
Absolutely brilliant.

I tested it using your scenario in which there's a ISS.
Mine is a UMmu version, and there was no conflict when I used each systems' commands (ie. Tab+... for yours and E for UMmu).

This is genius! :tiphat:

 

[Sky Captain]

I have a little problem with UMMUFA. When I select a crew member, do eva, cycle through docking port list - basically do anything that cause red status text to appear on the left side of the screen a fps for some reason drop by half when the red text appears.

 

[Spacethingy]

Yeah, second that. The red words are a tad annoying.

I suppose that's the cost of getting universal UMMU (pun not intended) without lifting a finger.

Any chance of having a time-out system for the text?

 

[computerex]

Will do, after 3-4 days. Exams. BTW you can change the color of the text in the ummufa cfg file.

Doesn't seem to work

Hey There-

I'm really excited to try this add-on, but I'm having an odd issue. With the Delta Glider in the default scenario provided, none of the commands listed in the readme file work at all. Instead a few of the commands from the original UMMU addon work instead. For example, 1 and 2 keys select crew-members for EVA and the E key will EVA them. However, the "S" key doesn't give me a status report, and the M key won't bring up the create crew dialog box. Those are the only three keys that seem to work, and I discovered it quite by accident. Any idea what might be going wrong?

 

[Tommy]

Try installing UMMUFA in a clean install (no other add-ons). Sounds like you may have installed an add-on which already added UMMU capability to the Deltal Glider.

 

[TheSwordandScales]

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll give it a shot, but I don't think that's the case. The reason I went shopping for UMMUFA in the first place was because I wanted UMMU capability on the stock DG. I think a clean install may be called for anyway, since I now seem to be getting regular CTDs when using UMMUFA (I've since managed to get it working on a limited number of vessels, i.e., the Dragonfly). Seems like it'll be an awesome mod if I can just get the darned thing to work.

 

[garyw]

Are you getting CTD's or orbiter freezing on you? If it's freezing you might need to run the UMMU patch utillity shipped with UCGO
