Setting in ControlSurface is gone

[E-four]

I know AA uses SyncModuleControlSurface module instead of stock ModuleControlSurface. But there is a problem like this :

when a plane's ModuleControlSurfacevalue like authoritylimitor or deployAngle is modified in pure stock ksp, and when I load this plane in AA ksp, that settings value is gone and setting in action group is also gone.

this is stock module value in .craft.

MODULE
{
	name = ModuleControlSurface
	isEnabled = True
	mirrorDeploy = False
	usesMirrorDeploy = True
	ignorePitch = False
	ignoreYaw = True
	ignoreRoll = False
	deploy = False
	deployInvert = False
	partDeployInvert = False
	deployAngle = 0 // <- here
	authorityLimiter = 150 // <- here
	stagingEnabled = True
	EVENTS
	{
	}
	ACTIONS
	{
		ActionToggle
		{
			actionGroup = Brakes // <- here
			wasActiveBeforePartWasAdjusted = False
		}
		ActionExtend
		{
			actionGroup = None
			wasActiveBeforePartWasAdjusted = False
		}
		ActionRetract
		{
			actionGroup = None
			wasActiveBeforePartWasAdjusted = False
		}
	}
	AXISGROUPS
	{
		deployAngle
		{
			axisGroup = None
			axisIncremental = Pitch, Yaw, Roll, TranslateX, TranslateY, TranslateZ, WheelSteer, WheelThrottle, Custom01, Custom02, Custom03, Custom04
			axisInverted = None
			overrideIncremental0 = Pitch, Yaw, Roll, TranslateX, TranslateY, TranslateZ, WheelSteer, WheelThrottle, Custom01, Custom02, Custom03, Custom04
			overrideIncremental1 = Pitch, Yaw, Roll, TranslateX, TranslateY, TranslateZ, WheelSteer, WheelThrottle, Custom01, Custom02, Custom03, Custom04
			overrideIncremental2 = Pitch, Yaw, Roll, TranslateX, TranslateY, TranslateZ, WheelSteer, WheelThrottle, Custom01, Custom02, Custom03, Custom04
			overrideIncremental3 = Pitch, Yaw, Roll, TranslateX, TranslateY, TranslateZ, WheelSteer, WheelThrottle, Custom01, Custom02, Custom03, Custom04
		}
		authorityLimiter
		{
			axisGroup = None
			axisIncremental = Pitch, Yaw, Roll, TranslateX, TranslateY, TranslateZ, WheelSteer, WheelThrottle, Custom01, Custom02, Custom03, Custom04
			axisInverted = None
			overrideIncremental0 = Pitch, Yaw, Roll, TranslateX, TranslateY, TranslateZ, WheelSteer, WheelThrottle, Custom01, Custom02, Custom03, Custom04
			overrideIncremental1 = Pitch, Yaw, Roll, TranslateX, TranslateY, TranslateZ, WheelSteer, WheelThrottle, Custom01, Custom02, Custom03, Custom04
			overrideIncremental2 = Pitch, Yaw, Roll, TranslateX, TranslateY, TranslateZ, WheelSteer, WheelThrottle, Custom01, Custom02, Custom03, Custom04
			overrideIncremental3 = Pitch, Yaw, Roll, TranslateX, TranslateY, TranslateZ, WheelSteer, WheelThrottle, Custom01, Custom02, Custom03, Custom04
		}
	}

}
}

and this is AA modified .craft's module in .craft file.

MODULE
{
	name = SyncModuleControlSurface
	isEnabled = True
	mirrorDeploy = False
	usesMirrorDeploy = True
	ignorePitch = False
	ignoreYaw = False
	ignoreRoll = False
	deploy = False
	deployInvert = False
	partDeployInvert = False
	deployAngle = 15 // <- here
	authorityLimiter = 100 // <- here
	stagingEnabled = True
	EVENTS
	{
	}
	ACTIONS
	{
		ActionToggle
		{
			actionGroup = None // <- here
			wasActiveBeforePartWasAdjusted = False
		}
		ActionExtend
		{
			actionGroup = None
			wasActiveBeforePartWasAdjusted = False
		}
		ActionRetract
		{
			actionGroup = None
			wasActiveBeforePartWasAdjusted = False
		}
	}
	AXISGROUPS
	{
		deployAngle
		{
			axisGroup = None
			axisIncremental = Pitch, Yaw, Roll, TranslateX, TranslateY, TranslateZ, WheelSteer, WheelThrottle, Custom01, Custom02, Custom03, Custom04
			axisInverted = None

			overrideIncremental3 = Pitch, Yaw, Roll, TranslateX, TranslateY, TranslateZ, WheelSteer, WheelThrottle, Custom01, Custom02, Custom03, Custom04
		}
		authorityLimiter
		{
			axisGroup = None

It makes a small problem that transfering .craft file from AA modified KSP -> to stock KSP. Yes. it removes settings of wings. it is a main problem now.

I added .craft file in here.

Even if I would write some special code to correctly port stock module save nodes, it cannot handle AA -> stock case. The simplest solution is to simply edit craft files and saves and replace module names to fit your installation needs. sed on linux, or something like the script I linked here for Windows: https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/124417-180-181-atmosphereautopilot-1516/&do=findComment&comment=3394283

I'm glad I checked Github before I posted this on the forum. I ran into the problem E-four mentioned myself when I tried loading a very specialized craft and found all of my inverted surfaces were undone. it took me a whole day to figure out the cause and isolate it.

From that post it looks like I simply have to rename "ModuleControlSurface" to "SyncModuleControlSurface" in the craft config, and the craft should work just like stock?

Would it be possible to save that script in a .bat file, so that I can simply click on it at it will mass convert all craft in the same location? Forgive me but I have little to no coding experience, all I've done is edit fairings via craft config files.

Yes, there is a script example in the forum post i linked.

Interesting, I don't know what to do with that script, but I did a manual CTRL-F replacement in the craft I was testing and it worked great. Many thanks.

However, I discovered another bug- AA messes up flaps controlled via KAL controllers. They do not auto-center with AA installed when the controller is set to absolute like they do in stock.

The craft I am doing this testing for is quite the oddball though, controlling flaps via KAL controllers is pretty strange. Link to craft - a k-drive powered cargo plane that uses elevons pushed into landing gear to produce thrust and SAS torque. It also has F/B and L/R translation controlled via KAL controllers, and that is where my issue is with AA. The translation controls don't work properly but everything else seems to work fine.
