The IDA shouldn't be present on the ISS when a Shuttle is docked. Last time I checked in older versions, the Shuttle's docking orientation was OK (i.e. about 180° opposite the screenshot above) with just the PMA-only configuration

That is so weird. Can you post the log. I wonder if the meshes are in the wrong place

make sure the evaguys meshes are here: ISSEVA/SOLIDREDEVA

SetMeshVisibilityMode(AddMesh(oapiLoadMeshGlobal("ISSEVA/SOLIDREDEVA")), MESHVIS_ALWAYS); //Main ship mesh
Ok, will have a look and let you know...👍

Yeah, this is a bit of a mystery.
The direction of the docking ports is correct for BrianJ's Crew Dragon and my DarkEnergy addons, I think the default Shuttle has the port oriented upside down.
As of v2.8 and before, I just used whatever orientation made the default shuttle dock correctly but as of v2.9 I corrected them for Crew Dragon.
If anyone can clear this up, I'd be appreciated
Once again thank you for such an awesome addon I'm really enjoying it... ;) (y)

So if you want the questairloack that has eva. you need to make this change to the cfg:

;This might cause strange visual issues... Use at your own risk!
HAS_QUEST = FALSE

BEGIN_ATTACHMENT
C 6.77 -6.7 -4.775 0 -1 0 0 0 1 EVA
C 2.18 -4.65 -4.75 0 1 0 0 0 1 QUEST
END_ATTACHMENT

v3.1 Released :)

A few small features:
  • Option to hide the IDAs for Shuttle-era PMA docking ports. Several folks have been asking about this, should fix the incorrect shuttle docking orientation bug.
  • The gap spanner is hidden with Quest.
Hi Max-Q

Awesome it works (y) just a question so, does these changes (HAS_IDAS = If this is false, the PMA docking ports will revert to the Shuttle-era configuration (No IDAs) with the use for @BrianJ SpaceX Dragon and for the Shuttle-era PMA docking ports to be change every time you use the different Vessel?
Or can changes be done, for both the ISS for the Shuttle-era and the ISS with IDAs be used at the same time?

I'd say the best thing to do would be make a second cfg for the shuttle era ports. Something like ISS_HD_STS.cfg with the HAS_IDAS value set to false.
Yes, the setting is persistent across all scenarios that have the ISS_HD vessel in them.
Setting the state of a docking port at scenario load vs vessel creation can be problematic, so I did it this way.

Awesome thank you😉👍 Made a second cfg for the Shuttle era ports, no issues on my side.
