Upgrading from v2 to v3 Important

There are two things that are important to note when upgrading from v2 to v3

You cannot have both v2 and v3 installed at the same time
It is important to note that v3 of KAC stores the alarms in the save file in a scenario module - no longer in its own Alarms-xxxxx.txt file

If you wish to import your Alarms from v2 then you will need to save the alarms file before removing v2. There is a tool provide in v3 and you will find instructions below under Importing v2 Alarms

Installation

If you are upgrading from v2 please ensure you read the Importing v2 Alarms Instructions before proceeding so you dont overwrite your alarms file

1. Extracting the Zip file to a temporary location

Take the downloaded file and extract it to a temporary location. You will end up with a folder that looks like the below:

2. Finding the KSP Main Folder

The first step to installing an addon is to locate the KSP folder in your computer. This is where KSP keeps all of its files, including your game saves and screenshots. The KSP folder is located where you unzipped it when you first downloaded the game. The folder looks like the below:

3. Installing the Mod

Simply copy the files from the GameData source into the GameData folder in the KSP Game folder. As shown below:

4. All Done!!

Your Game folder will now look like this. And you should be able to start KSP and use the Plugin

1. Save your old Alarms files

The path they should be in is below, but the easiest way to find these is to search the TriggerTech folder for "Alarms*", and you can then make a copy of these.

<KSP_OS>\GameData\TriggerTech\KerbalAlarmClock\PluginData\KerbalAlarmClock

Copy these somewhere else for now

2. Remove v2 and Install v3

Delete the existing KerbalAlarmClock Folder in TriggerTech and install v3 - The Steps are above under Installation Instructions

3. Restore your old Alarms files

Place your old alarm files inside the TriggerTech Folder - I just put em in the root to save time

4. go to the Import Tool

In KSP, load your save file and open the Alarm Clock. Go to Settings and the About tab where you will find an Open Import Tool button

5. Read the Old Alarms File

You shoudl see the name of your save file listed and a Read File button

5. Review the Alarms and Add/Replace the existing ones

You should see a list of all the alarms that were in the save file before and if you hover over one a tooltip shows the notes.

Click on the Add to Alarms button to add to any alarms that you may have made before starting this, or Replace Alarms to replace whats there.

6. All Done

You should now see the alarms in the state you were after. Dont forget that these are saved in the save file now
