L1[00:02:14] <mischief> why are they not proper already
L2[00:02:18] <Tank2333> i just watched The Expanse and earth blow up Deimos with a nuke so that video is Fake News
L3[00:02:24] <mischief> also, minmus seems very wee
L4[00:02:31] <mischief> compared to mun i guess
L5[00:03:22] <Tank2333> because of Einstein
L6[00:03:29] <JVFoxy> lol.. good luck even pushing a small moon.
L7[00:03:40] <JVFoxy> Scott did a video on it.. you'd need more mass than the moon itself
L8[00:03:43] <Tank2333> he made gravity too complicated
L9[00:03:51] <Althego> yes that was an old video
L10[00:03:53] <Althego> maybe with gilly
L11[00:04:10] <Althego> but ultimately they are on rails anyway
L12[00:04:14] <Tank2333> i remember that you cant realy do it with rockets
L13[00:04:26] <Tank2333> you would need more fuel that the moon has mass
L14[00:04:27] <Tank2333> or so
L15[00:04:45] <Tank2333> that=than
L16[00:05:43] <JVFoxy> heh.. old because its only been a few years and he's put out so many videos..?
L17[00:06:05] <Tank2333> been a few years i think
L18[00:06:37] <JVFoxy> I have to ask about the meaning of 'old' these days... mostly since, 'oh, you've had your phone a few years? Thats old'.. really..?
L19[00:06:49] <Althego> yes that is old
L20[00:07:44] <Tank2333> im not 13 so i have a sense of time :)
L21[00:08:41] <JVFoxy> the ground you stand on is old...

L25[00:09:00] <mischief> should i be landing on the lakes of minmus?
L26[00:09:07] <mischief> landing on the mountains seems trecharous
L27[00:09:13] <Tank2333> yes
L28[00:09:25] <JVFoxy> I guess the fact that companies keep pushign you to buy the latest products all the time, doesn't really help matters
L29[00:09:35] <Supercheese> Minmus' flats are a godsend
L30[00:09:43] <Supercheese> most planets are filled with steep slopes everywhere
L31[00:09:47] <Althego> my phone is already older than 2 years
L32[00:09:51] <Supercheese> but Minmus has those delicious flats

L36[00:10:28] <Althego> probably i will need to replace the battery soon, but for that have to take it to some shop (built in). or i can just buy a new one next year
L37[00:10:34] <JVFoxy> avoid the poles.. at least on mun... elevation changes get stupidly exagerated
L38[00:10:38] <Tank2333> my on is only one and a half and it is starting to get slower... i think android is rigged

L43[00:11:24] <Althego> it has its own biome now
L44[00:11:32] <Tank2333> oh ok
L45[00:11:34] <Althego> so it is there permanently, part of the lore
L46[00:11:42] <Tank2333> true
L47[00:11:45] <Althego> originally was a terrain glitch
L48[00:12:04] <Tank2333> yeah i know, but never went there
L49[00:12:32] <Althego> heh something crazy happened to the tests again
L50[00:13:25] <Tank2333> wich tests?
L51[00:14:01] <JVFoxy> interesting its only moho.. not any other planet/moon
L52[00:14:21] <Althego> the product. but as i am not going to do any work today it has to remain a mystery. it loks like some infrastructure problem
L53[00:14:33] <JVFoxy> first time I came across 'moho' as a weird was back in the Total Annihilation game.
L54[00:14:39] <Althego> there is a peak on duna

L57[00:14:55] <Althego> protect the moho mine at all cost
L58[00:15:11] <JVFoxy> stil have it.. not played in a while since got new machine going. :(
L59[00:15:16] <Althego> just played through ta last week
L60[00:15:38] <Althego> but if your map is smaller than the screen it can easily crash
L61[00:15:49] <Althego> had to change the resolution from full to avoid that :)
L62[00:16:19] <mischief> okay
L63[00:16:26] <mischief> so i should go to the flats of minmus?
L64[00:16:34] <Althego> that is the easiest
L65[00:16:43] <Althego> they are exactly at 0 altitude and completely smooth
L66[00:16:53] <KrazyKrl> Naa... run full 5:4 at 1350x1080 stretched.
L67[00:16:59] <mischief> i see a rather nice spot

L72[00:18:01] <mischief> that flat bit yeah?
L73[00:18:02] <Althego> no, tha maps are too small
L74[00:18:17] <Althego> yes any of that
L75[00:18:26] <mischief> excellent
L76[00:18:28] <mischief> let's go
L77[00:18:34] <Althego> if you land near the hills, you can get biome data from the slopes and highlands
L78[00:18:40] <JVFoxy> I'd probably still play it on my older machine
L79[00:18:42] <Althego> with small hops or with eva
L80[00:18:56] <JVFoxy> I never got around to installing the DVD drive on this new box

L84[00:19:13] <mischief> oops
L85[00:19:15] <Althego> at least take surface sample
L86[00:19:17] <Althego> hehe

L97[00:20:42] <Althego> clearly a hopper
L98[00:21:05] <Althego> remember there is tons of science on minmus, hop throuogh all of the biomes for best result
L99[00:21:13] <KrazyKrl> i mean... it certainly could be an ore container.
L100[00:21:41] <JVFoxy> I have a game a friend gave me on DVD... held on to it just in case... machien built, forgot DVD... eventually got one, just never stuck it in... ya sorry lazy somewhat. >.<
L101[00:21:47] <mischief> https://i.imgur.com/IjGFlfu.jpg
L102[00:21:51] <mischief> bit large eh
L103[00:22:19] <Althego> i would have taken only a scientist so that there is more delta v for hoppin g:)
L104[00:23:22] <KrazyKrl> yep... just take a scientist in a single man pod... then use an advanced probe core if you need SAS capability.
L105[00:24:21] <KrazyKrl> and that kinda looks like mine, lol. https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/719792474331682492/99852401018574767690DE50E24CD0AC32095CAB/
L106[00:24:37] <JVFoxy> reading up on this surface science pack.. need at least eng and sci guy to put things together, make it of use... pilot optional since core could probably help
L107[00:25:06] <mischief> your kerbal looks like he ate too much sugar
L108[00:25:09] <KrazyKrl> isn't the lander can 2 crew?
L109[00:25:36] <Althego> the bigger one
L110[00:25:51] <mischief> this is the command pod Mk1-3
L111[00:25:54] <mischief> 3-man ship
L112[00:26:15] <Tank2333> oh wow... the "inline image" option from this irc client does work
L113[00:26:26] <KrazyKrl> i know what the 3 man capsule is. but you don't really need a pilot due to the previously mentioned probe cores.
L114[00:26:51] <mischief> my current lander only has "Spark" and "Twitch" engines
L115[00:26:57] <mischief> takes a while to get anything done
L116[00:27:05] <Tank2333> nice little ship
L117[00:27:31] <KrazyKrl> well... all you need is enough dV on launch to get home, or to the reentry vehicle.
L118[00:27:52] <mischief> i made it :-D
L119[00:28:06] <mischief> KrazyKrl: yeah thats what the 4 twitch engines are for
L120[00:28:22] <mischief> they are surprisingly strong for their size
L121[00:28:39] <KrazyKrl> they have among the best dV of any engine iirc.
L122[00:29:29] <Althego> but they are nowhere as op as they used to be in the old days
L123[00:29:29] <KrazyKrl> And then you have those things where you go "what have I done?" https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/719791555825337090/0151BE422A5543C4F2BFFF9854584934EC44C4B0/

L208[02:41:29] <mischief> now, do i try landing again on minmus or just go home with my two rescued people..
L209[02:42:09] <Althego> depends on fuel
L210[02:42:24] <Althego> more minmus landings, more science
L211[02:42:27] <mischief> a fair bit
L212[02:42:38] <mischief> my landing kegs are nearly full

L214[02:43:14] <Althego> go for it
L215[02:43:31] <mischief> only took me a tiny bit of fuel for two rescues which had opposite orbits, i'm surprised
L216[02:43:56] <mischief> i think minmus is easier than mun :)
L217[02:44:36] <Althego> it is
L218[02:44:40] <Althego> and better
L219[02:44:42] <Althego> more science
L220[02:44:53] <mischief> word
L221[02:44:53] <Althego> the mun has more biomes
L222[02:44:59] <mischief> last trip got me 1800 science :)
L223[02:45:04] <Althego> but you have top foight hard to get them
L224[02:45:10] <Althego> on minmus you can just milk it forever
L225[02:45:24] <Althego> basically you can get the whole tech tree

L227[02:45:45] <Althego> maybe not in hard mode, then a few nodes will be unfilled on the highest level

L231[02:56:11] <Althego> no such mode
L232[02:56:19] <mischief> sorry
L233[02:56:20] <mischief> staging mode
L234[02:56:43] <Althego> that is not the navball mode
L235[02:56:48] <mischief> it says i'm in orbit moving at 10.0 m/s and my prograde and retrograde are inverted
L236[02:57:03] <mischief> where is mode shown?
L237[02:57:26] <Althego> it is probably the control from here menu what you want
L238[02:57:35] <Althego> so if you have a probe core or docking port or such
L239[02:57:40] <Althego> you can be useing the wrong one
L240[02:57:51] <mischief> just a command pod
L241[02:57:56] <mischief> i'm landed on the surface o_O
L242[02:57:56] <Althego> or in orbit mode while you are near the surface
L243[02:58:09] <Althego> if you click the navball now, does the speed change?
L244[02:58:15] <Althego> (it should)
L245[02:58:25] <mischief> ooh
L246[02:58:32] <mischief> i didn't know you could click the words
L247[02:58:35] <Althego> in surface mode it is relative to the surface
L248[02:58:42] <Althego> in orbit mode it is relative to the center of the planet
L249[02:58:44] <mischief> now it shows surface 0.0m/s
L250[02:58:49] <mischief> makes more sense xD
L251[02:59:08] <Althego> you can use this to see the surface speed on the launchpad for example
L252[02:59:15] <Althego> normally it transitions automatically
L253[02:59:17] <Althego> but sometimes not
L254[02:59:26] <Althego> or you want to switch back to surface mode for contracts
L255[02:59:34] <Althego> (fly x speed, it is always surface speed)

L284[04:27:41] <Rolf> possibly
L285[04:29:48] <mischief> this mission just says 'reocver a module without damaging it too much'
L286[04:29:54] <mischief> what is too much and how do i do that :v
L287[04:30:18] <Althego> there is no partial damage in stock
L288[04:30:32] <Rolf> damhing too much means poof I guess
L289[04:30:39] <Althego> except maybe landing legs and wheels
L290[04:31:06] <mischief> the module is purported to weight 2.5t
L291[04:31:14] <Althego> but the parts are usually cabins, tanks, engines
L292[04:31:25] <mischief> how the heck will i get some random 2.5t thing back to kerbin without it blowing up while deorbiting
L293[04:31:33] <Althego> once i had to recover an empty shuttle solid booster from a crater on the mun
L294[04:31:35] <Althego> that was hard

L297[04:32:04] <Rolf> if it has, dock something with LOT of paracles on it
L298[04:32:14] <Rolf> cant spell that word
L299[04:32:21] <Althego> you need the claw, and some serious delta v reserve
L300[04:32:25] <Althego> and also parachutes
L301[04:32:31] <Rolf> ah yes the claw

L477[14:32:07] <Althego> there are some parts that you cant attach in some ways, but it is not that important anymore since the rotation and offset tools
L478[14:33:07] <Black_Eagle> i'm really confused

L484[14:33:54] <Black_Eagle> [27/07 22:14;11] <Black_Eagle> so: does anyone know how ksp treats the airbrakes?
L485[14:33:56] <Black_Eagle> this one
L486[14:34:03] <Althego> i was not here then
L487[14:34:05] <Supercheese> isn't it "A.I.R." and not "A.E.R.O."?
L488[14:34:09] <Black_Eagle> oh, true
L489[14:34:12] <Althego> if they are open they have more drag
L490[14:34:26] <Althego> probably not too much drag if they are not open
L491[14:34:30] <Black_Eagle> oh for fuck's sake
L492[14:34:34] <Althego> so you can tryto rotate them
L493[14:34:59] <Black_Eagle> ok slow down
L494[14:36:02] <Black_Eagle> if i put airbrakes sideways so that the apparent surface they have is aligned with the airflow, will ksp treat them as if they were surfaces aligned with the airflow
L495[14:36:20] <Black_Eagle> as sort of makeshift vertical stabilizers
L496[14:36:35] <Althego> probably they will do almost nothing
L497[14:36:49] <Althego> but look ad the drag arrows in the aero view
L498[14:36:58] <Black_Eagle> hmmm... so they're basically not like wings that just fold and unfold
L499[14:37:11] <Black_Eagle> no drag arrows - does that mean it's mostly cosmetic then?
L500[14:37:26] <Althego> yes
L501[14:37:49] <Althego> they are more like parachutes
L502[14:41:08] <Althego> moon is almsot completely gone according to the live feed
L503[14:43:20] <Black_Eagle> i found the drag arrows, you're right. it's weird how the drag just appears once you yaw the plane
L504[14:43:27] <Black_Eagle> so it goes more that way
L505[14:43:40] <Black_Eagle> not terribly useful
L506[14:43:52] <Althego> you can build a flying wing with the
L507[14:43:53] <Althego> m
L508[14:44:50] <JVFoxy> I remember in some past version, some of the aerodynamics weren't symetrical on some mirrored parts directly connected to the route part.. or something along those lines
L509[14:45:11] <JVFoxy> that ever get fixed or..?
L510[14:45:59] <Black_Eagle> would have been a neat way to save space on vertical control surfaces (as in folded away when not in use)

L579[20:23:09] <KrazyKrl> at that point, why not run fuel cells?
L580[20:23:38] <mischief> i've run out of fuel for one
L581[20:23:43] <KrazyKrl> get some supplimental power, and you can easily dock to refill.
L582[20:23:54] <mischief> also, i didn't pack a fuel cell
L583[20:23:59] <mischief> this is career mode..
L584[20:24:17] <mischief> i did remember docking ports though.
L585[20:24:23] <mischief> i might just send a flying battery up there
L586[20:24:29] <KrazyKrl> yea, but if you have a processing lab; you have the tech for fuel cells.
L587[20:24:55] <KrazyKrl> you could even dock some ore, and refine on the station for fuel.
L588[20:25:17] <KrazyKrl> or... you might even be able to dock a tiny ship made of batteries...
L589[20:25:28] <mischief> yes :P
L590[20:25:39] <mischief> a little probe core on a stick of batteries
L591[20:26:36] <mischief> how do i do the whole mining and refining thing?
L592[20:26:43] <mischief> i just unlocked that tech node
L593[20:27:01] <KrazyKrl> get ore, refine ore to fuel... that's kinda it.
L594[20:27:31] <mischief> i mean, is it efficient?

L596[20:28:21] <Rolf> is those largest batteries you can use?
L597[20:28:44] <mischief> i have the Z-1k, but i thought the Z-400 fit better.
L598[20:29:00] <KrazyKrl> the z1k is terrible for ec/kg iirc.
L599[20:29:19] <mischief> it is only 0.05t

L601[20:31:00] <Rolf> camlock lol
L602[20:32:31] <KrazyKrl> oh right, battery capacity was normalized. the z-400s are a little nicer to work with due to the z400s form factor.

L641[21:24:54] <oren> ok trying again
L642[21:25:32] <oren> interestingly an antenna that has been folded away still expodes
L643[21:27:14] <JVFoxy> in the air stream?
L644[21:27:29] <mischief> https://i.imgur.com/IWdxEEg.jpg
L645[21:27:32] <mischief> is this right?
L646[21:28:03] <oren> and a paracute deployed while inside a bay doens't seem to slow anything won
L647[21:28:06] <oren> down
L648[21:28:52] <mischief> why you put a chute in a bay?
L649[21:29:14] <oren> to protect it from heat of reentry?
L650[21:29:24] <mischief> shouldn't be a problem
L651[21:29:40] <mischief> i've never had a chute burn off
L652[21:31:57] <oren> even while returning from the mun with no control because you only have enough batteries for the trip there?
L653[21:32:40] <mischief> no kerbal onboard?
L654[21:32:52] <mischief> you can get out and push with your monopropellant :)
L655[21:33:11] <oren> no just a stayputnik
L656[21:33:21] <mischief> usually i've got a cone-shaped command pod, with parachutes on the pointy end and a heat shield on the bottom
L657[21:33:29] <mischief> never burned up with that setup
L658[21:33:57] <oren> returning with the instruments bay open worked
L659[21:34:04] <mischief> haha
L660[21:35:28] <oren> and I completed by contract to return from a flyby of the mun
L661[21:35:52] <oren> now I can finally get solar panels
L662[21:38:34] <mischief> oh dear
L663[21:38:38] <mischief> solar panels are quite useful xD
L664[21:40:45] <mischief> hm.. no SAS on my miner
L665[21:40:51] <mischief> how can i get SAS?
L666[21:41:00] <mischief> i can't seem to attach probe cores to the side of my ship..
L667[21:43:21] <mischief> maybe i can't use the cupola module then, sucks
L668[21:54:19] <oren> put a lander can in it?
L669[21:54:49] <mischief> i just added a hitchhiker storage container, to put the engineer in
L670[21:54:54] <mischief> pilot in the cupola
L671[21:55:57] <JVFoxy> use the truss structure, then probe on top
L672[21:56:15] <JVFoxy> just make sure its turned to face the right direction
L673[21:57:36] <mischief> i just didn't want to block the cupola's view.
L674[21:57:51] <mischief> the hitchhiker container also gives me more room to put stuff
L675[21:58:02] <mischief> it is an extra 2.5t tho
L676[21:58:47] <JVFoxy> lander can usually a bit lighter..
L677[21:58:49] <JVFoxy> I think..
L678[21:58:57] <JVFoxy> if you want to add a probe, and have the coupula..
L679[21:59:23] <mischief> this is a mining rig
L680[21:59:28] <mischief> it's already 36 tons
L681[21:59:41] <JVFoxy> add a little strut to the back side. A probe after you turned it to connect. Then just turn the probe to face the right direction. and slide it into the body slightly so its not just sticking out
L682[22:00:36] <mischief> not sure how i'll land the thing though, it's quite tall and heavy

L687[22:01:45] <mischief> no rocket for retrograde burn?

L690[22:02:07] <mischief> should work
L691[22:02:21] <JVFoxy> I did a 1 pilot+10 kerbal cruise ship.. launched that way. got mun orbit, came back for LKO.. used a docking station as a meeting point. flew up a couple of return craft, brought everyone home
L692[22:06:35] <oren> nothing has gont wrong yet
L693[22:06:52] <Epsilon> Congratulations, you've guaranteed that something will.
L694[22:07:26] <Epsilon> Although I admire the realism in saying "yet"

L697[22:08:08] <mischief> yeah, going sideways is a good way to catch drag
L698[22:08:10] <mischief> (and heat)
L699[22:08:59] <Epsilon> Gives literal meaning to "this mission has gone sideways"
L700[22:09:05] <mischief> mun miner mk I ready to go

L716[23:03:40] <JVFoxy> huh?
L717[23:05:52] <KrazyKrl> a number is one dimensional, a plane is two dimensional. if you define 2 points in space, you can create a space plane.
