User Interface StageInfo

[Maxi]

Extra info in the stock Stage/Sequence window. Keeps the stock layout (Sequences section on top, Stages section below) and augments each row: Sequences get Delta V / TWR / burn time / ISP, Stages get fuel pool / mass / engine count / decoupler count. Also adds a totals footer and a multi-stage-aware burn duration for auto-burns.

Stock	With StageInfo

Features

• Per-sequence Delta V, TWR, burn time, ISP info and fuel fraction bar on each Sequence row.
• Per-stage fuel pool, mass, engine count and decoupler count on each Stage row.
• Per-stage RCS bar in the stage header. Substances no active main engine can consume are listed in the expanded stage detail. Shared tanks stay on the main fuel bar so nothing is double-counted.
• RCS dV budget as a footer line, with engineering tooltip listing effective ISP, total propellant and scalar peak thrust.
• Display modes: Auto / VAC / ASL / VAC+ASL / Planning (Planning lets you pick any body in the current system).
• Totals footer with total Delta V, planned burn dV and burn time. Turns red when the planned burn exceeds available dV.
• Corrected multi-sequence burn duration calculation so auto-burns ignite at the right lead time.

A little pop of color really makes the UI feel so much more alive, well done.

StageInfo Update v0.2.0 - RCS visibility​

I was lining up a docking burn the other day, hit the keys - nothing happened. Turns out the RCS tanks had run dry and the UI panel never told me. Now it does.

This Update adds an RCS propellant view alongside the fuel display, so you don't run dry on reaction control mid-flight without noticing.

• Per-stage RCS bar in the stage header next to the fuel bar (blue, turns red below 20%).
• RCS substance breakdown in the expanded stage detail (e.g. MMH 1,180/1,761 kg NTO 1,888/2,817 kg) with hover tooltip for the full substance name and current/max mass.
• RCS dV budget in the footer (RCS dV ~X m/s) with a hover tooltip for effective ISP, total propellant, and scalar peak thrust.

Shared tanks (e.g. LFOX powering both the main engine and a vernier thruster) stay on the main fuel bar - the RCS bar only shows substances no active main engine can consume, so nothing is counted twice.

Great mod, thanks!
Very minor niggle: for me the yellow pops out too strongly, any way the colors could be adjusted/dimmed?

Thank You

I will see what i can do here. To be fair i could definetly use some graphics design classes and could use your help here

The current yellow color is just the default ImGui progress bar color, e.g. the same color you get when you open the part menu by right-clicking tanks in the stock game.


To be honest i have grown quite used to it and like it.

Do the red, green and blue colors also pop out too strongly for you?
I believe that it would be nice to stay somewhat consistent with the colors of the stock game.

What do you think of the toned down color of the "Manual" button for example?



Do you have something concrete in mind? A specific tone or even better an RGB/hex value would be help a lot.

I decided to also upload the mod to SpaceDock: https://spacedock.info/mod/4256/StageInfo

 

[Maxi]

To run StageInfo on KSA 2026.5.7.4397 or newer you need at least StageInfo v0.2.4.

KSA 2026.5.7.4397 renamed Vehicle.LastKinematicStates to Vehicle.KinematicStates, which StageInfo references.
Earlier builds will fail to load against the new game version.

v0.3.0 - Editor StageInfo Panel​

Adds a StageInfo panel to the vehicle editor (Shift+E) showing per-sequence dV, TWR, burn time, and ISP alongside fuel and RCS bars for the rocket you are currently building.

Includes a body selector for TWR reference gravity and a Vacuum/ASL toggle for bodies with atmosphere. Toggle the panel via the "StageInfo" menu tab in the editor menu bar.

Also fixes stage fuel display missing tanks on sub-parts and adds pipe separators between RCS substance entries for readability.
