L17[02:06:25] <Gasher[work]> looks like an optimisation ttool
L18[02:06:28] <taniwha> (pretty trivial math, really)
L19[02:06:46] <taniwha> but it makes that information available, and shows a little extra

L22[02:07:12] <taniwha> it's purely informational
L23[02:07:13] <Althego> but i dont understand this
L24[02:08:28] <taniwha> cost to turn a hyperbola into an ellipse decreases with depth in a gravity well, but cost to circularize from an extreme ellipse increases with depth
L25[02:08:59] <taniwha> this shows the balance point
L26[02:09:06] <Althego> ah
L27[02:09:39] <taniwha> ie, where you want your periapsis for the most efficient circularization
L28[02:10:21] <taniwha> it won't actually do anything because there may be many other factors influencing your decisions, but
L29[02:10:36] <taniwha> it might prove useful anyway

L31[02:11:26] <taniwha> (eg, do you want to land? will it cost more to achieve that periapsis?, etc)
L32[02:11:56] <taniwha> (or the big one: does that periapsis even exist?)
L33[02:18:36] <Gasher[work]> to think of it i forgot how to land on airless planets in ksp
L34[02:19:12] <Gasher[work]> i mean, the idea is simple but i forgot which altitude is better to have
L35[02:21:41] <taniwha> it depends
L36[02:22:40] <Gasher[work]> depends on what? TWR mostly i guess?
L37[02:25:51] <JVFoxy> having orbit off by a degree from mun really makes it hard to get free return huh?
L38[02:26:03] <JVFoxy> or maybe just not awake enough
L39[02:26:24] <Althego> you can still do a minimal adjustment
L40[02:26:31] <mabus> Gasher[work]: cheapest way to land on airless planet is to adjust your encounter so its close as possible without being dangerous
L41[02:26:49] <mabus> then circularize and decide where to land
L42[02:26:59] <Gasher[work]> mabus, i mean the landing not reaching it
L43[02:27:10] <mabus> kill horizontal velocity
L44[02:27:17] <JVFoxy> mid course correction.. suppose just .. not awake
L45[02:27:18] <Gasher[work]> damn
L46[02:27:22] <mabus> then dont crash
L47[02:27:25] <Gasher[work]> that's obvious
L48[02:27:42] <Gasher[work]> then do tell me what altitude is the optimal for that?
L49[02:27:43] <mabus> mechjeb gives you a suicide burn timer
L50[02:27:46] <JVFoxy> lol.. don't crash..
L51[02:27:51] <JVFoxy> I land not having to use shadows
L52[02:27:51] <Gasher[work]> >mechjeb
L53[02:28:20] <mabus> well the cheapest fuel savings would be to not slow down more than you need to at very end
L54[02:28:30] <mabus> but if you start that burn too late you smash into planet
L55[02:28:37] <mabus> that is why it is aptly named the suicide burn
L56[02:28:49] <Gasher[work]> that's obvious again, i'm asking about optimizing that
L57[02:28:55] <JVFoxy> I've got fuel.. I could probably hop over to another site if I really wanted.
L58[02:29:15] <mabus> ok so
L59[02:29:25] <mabus> the eta that you are going to hit the ground at your current speed
L60[02:29:46] <mabus> when thats the same amount of time as how long it would take for your engines to use that amount of dv
L61[02:29:59] <Gasher[work]> em, that's not optimizing
L62[02:30:00] <mabus> you got your optimal time to start thrusting upwards
L63[02:30:13] <Althego> spacex can land that way :)
L64[02:30:19] <Althego> but not recommended
L65[02:31:02] <JVFoxy> suicide burn.. pretty risky if you ask me.. just hope engines still work
L66[02:31:04] <mabus> Gasher[work]: that absolutely is optimizing, maybe you need to rephrase your question
L67[02:31:11] <Gasher[work]> altitude
L68[02:31:25] <mabus> maybe with like, more words in it
L69[02:31:43] <Gasher[work]> hm
L70[02:31:56] <mabus> optimal altitude to be orbiting before you start killing horizontal velocity is as low as is safe (higher than highest point on your inclination)
L71[02:31:59] <Althego> hehe
L72[02:32:20] <Gasher[work]> "as is safe" sounds vague
L73[02:32:29] <JVFoxy> could just cut the whole orbiting thing out and go for direct landing
L74[02:32:35] <mabus> (higher than highest point on your inclination)
L75[02:32:45] <Althego> it doesnt need to be safe if you stop before you would hit something
L76[02:32:52] <mabus> eg not lower than the height of a mountain you might run into
L77[02:33:14] <Gasher[work]> ah
L78[02:33:21] <Gasher[work]> so lowest possible one
L79[02:33:41] <mabus> Althego: but then you a much bigger and harder suicide burn
L80[02:33:51] <Althego> i usually make the orbit almost touch the surface around where i want to land
L81[02:34:04] <Gasher[work]> now that makes sense

L83[02:34:45] <Althego> depends on twr, for lower twr i need to move that point before the landing target
L84[02:34:46] <mabus> the lower you fall from the less time you have to spend fighting gravity
L85[02:35:26] <Gasher[work]> we are talking about circular or mostly-circular orbit i guess?
L86[02:35:36] <JVFoxy> fortunately mun gravity 1/6th full gee.. so not exactly hard to work around
L87[02:35:59] <Gasher[work]> because if it's not then the velocity to kill could be higher
L88[02:36:21] <mabus> circular orbit is nice but its probably more expensive to correct than deal with if you are trying to land. its going to be easier to get off if you land near the equator
L89[02:36:38] <Gasher[work]> right
L90[02:37:17] <JVFoxy> unfortunately not all targets are at the equator
L91[02:37:22] <Althego> how does duna have a sea level?
L92[02:37:31] <Althego> especially that everything on duna is above it
L93[02:37:49] <Althego> it would make sense if the lowest point was sea level
L94[02:37:59] <Althego> bit it is completely fictional

L98[02:38:35] <JVFoxy> where you seeing something talking about Duna sea-level?
L99[02:38:40] <Althego> but why would anybody choose it at random
L100[02:38:47] <Althego> at least chose some special point
L101[02:39:01] <Althego> a remarkaable point
L102[02:39:04] <Althego> something highly visible
L103[02:39:09] <Althego> or special in some way
L104[02:39:15] <Althego> like the lowest point
L105[02:39:28] <Althego> but putting it well below ground, nobody would do that
L106[02:39:43] <Althego> i lost one of the tiny legs of the keyboard, it broke
L107[02:39:59] <mabus> is that the case for other planets in kerbal system Althego
L108[02:40:02] <mabus> that dont have oceans
L109[02:40:14] <Althego> robably
L110[02:40:20] <JVFoxy> I guess its kind of like 'where do you put the 0 longitude on another planet'?
L111[02:40:22] <Althego> because water automatically appears at 0

L113[02:41:06] <mabus> JVFoxy: our first landing spot duh
L114[02:41:08] <Althego> 0 longitude is also special, you can put it anywhere, but usually some surface feature is chosen
L115[02:42:28] <JVFoxy> kind of curious to know where you see mention of sea level for duna
L116[02:43:13] <Gasher[work]> it does not need to be mentioned to spark one's interest
L117[02:44:25] <mabus> JVFoxy: the altimeter gives an altitude relative to a 0
L118[02:44:40] <JVFoxy> surface features could hint at an ancient water body.. theoretical sea level
L119[02:44:45] <mabus> i think only in mechjeb or other mods might it refer to a 'sea' level
L120[02:45:56] <JVFoxy> we use mean sea level here on Earth... average height of high and low tide over the course of a year.
L121[02:46:01] <Althego> yes but a theoretical water body would be higher than the lowest land part, not lower
L122[02:46:16] <Gasher[work]> underground sea indeed
L123[02:46:46] <JVFoxy> .. something saying sea level way below ground then?>
L124[02:46:49] <Althego> the sun beneath the sea
L125[02:46:52] <Gasher[work]> well maybe you can say that sea level will be zero height on a runway for aircraft to set barometer altimeters on
L126[02:47:30] <JVFoxy> personally doesn't matter to me.. uses a reference point..
L127[02:47:52] <Althego> the lowest elevation on duna is several hundred meters
L128[02:48:09] <Althego> uses a reference point under ground, completely strange
L129[02:48:22] <Althego> if it used the center of the planet, that would make some sense
L130[02:49:14] <JVFoxy> maybe its based on an average geological layer found through surface penetrating radar?
L131[02:49:27] <Althego> permafrost maybe
L132[02:49:33] <Althego> who knows
L133[02:50:32] <JVFoxy> in reality, unless you have a GPS network setup... altitude is meaningless unless you can read directly from surface or have a good understanding about the pressure on the planet.
L134[02:51:00] <Althego> even with gps
L135[02:51:08] <Althego> it uses a reference model
L136[02:51:15] <Althego> which is just something we came up with

L342[13:25:31] <JVFoxy> sorry, messages...
L343[13:25:34] <JVFoxy> not recently, but in the past
L344[13:27:01] <JVFoxy> some parts were removed, or changed quite a bit. I noticed the 3 person command pod was 'updated', old part still in game if you pull up a past craft file. Just doesn't show up in parts list, makes you use new lighter weight model
L345[13:27:21] <Althego> not now
L346[13:27:24] <Althego> it was for 1.4
L347[13:28:04] <Althego> at least some parts were kept in the game in 1.4
L348[13:28:10] <Althego> i remember the decouplers as such
L349[13:28:19] <Althego> but was mentioned that they are going to be removed in a later version
L350[13:28:30] <Althego> so maybe the capsule was one of these retained part
L351[13:28:32] <Althego> s
L352[13:28:40] <Althego> and now they completely removed it
L353[13:29:49] <JVFoxy> removing decouplers huh?
L354[13:29:55] <Althego> the old ones
L355[13:30:05] <Althego> i liked the black yellow striped one
L356[13:30:13] <Althego> i could always hide parts inside it
L357[13:30:27] <Althego> poor man's service module
L358[13:30:34] <JVFoxy> I thought it weird they didn't just retrain all the parts
L359[13:31:02] <JVFoxy> that one landing leg.. hinged at the bottom, flips out. Quite a few people found them good for grabbing things, flipping stuff over..
L360[13:31:25] <JVFoxy> ok.. granted, the grabber became a thing. But, still, having a way to flip stuff over would have sitll been useful
L361[13:31:42] <Althego> they did retain all the parts
L362[13:31:45] <JVFoxy> Remember someone did a 'legacy parts pack'...
L363[13:31:51] <Althego> they were replaced by functionally identical parts
L364[13:32:21] <Althego> and now i have hard time grabbing stuff because the new decouplers are so thin that it is easy to miss them
L365[13:37:30] <JVFoxy> oh
L366[13:37:49] <JVFoxy> trouble with trying to set a 'one part fits all sizes' thing..
L367[13:38:11] <JVFoxy> I wouldn't mind thicker decouplers too... would hide engine bells that don't match size of tanks
L368[13:39:37] <JVFoxy> I would sometimes take a small fuel tank, not the tiny sized, but next up. Stick a spark on it.. which is tiny. How do you stack it? looks weird with tank sized decoupler and smaller one, things wobble too much
L369[13:40:31] <JVFoxy> I could shove engine up into fuel tank, slide decoupler up to cover things a little. Go too far, when staging, upper section janks hard, twists a bit

L392[13:55:22] * JVFoxy goes to look up time delay between earth and mars on google.. gets as far as entering 'time delay be' and google already guesses it
L393[13:55:37] <Althego> hehe
L394[13:56:21] <JVFoxy> between 4 and 24 minutes... depending on positions of planets
L395[13:56:45] <JVFoxy> guessing having sun in between can cause a blackout?
L396[13:56:50] <Althego> it does
L397[13:57:02] <JVFoxy> probably not a very long one...
L398[13:57:08] <Althego> a few days
L399[13:57:21] <Althego> a week or so
L400[13:57:23] <Althego> i cant remember
L401[13:58:30] <APlayer> "Mars, I know you're there! Stop hiding behind Sun!"
L402[13:58:55] <JVFoxy> speaking of radio blackouts...
L403[13:59:17] <JVFoxy> possible to place a relay trailing/leading the mun around kerbin?
L404[13:59:46] <Althego> yes, but you dont have lagrange points
L405[13:59:50] <JVFoxy> maybe something like the L points though I suspect KSP using SOI system, those L points not exactly there
L406[13:59:53] <APlayer> IRL, lagrange points would be what you're looking for
L407[14:00:09] <Althego> instead you can have orbits with the same periods
L408[14:00:09] <APlayer> In KSP, those do not exist, yes
L409[14:00:31] <Althego> byou can get there by intentionally missing the mun
L410[14:00:37] <JVFoxy> ya but then that leaves, how high up from mun is SOI?
L411[14:00:46] <APlayer> Same period orbits would work, but they are hard to fine tune. You may have to correct for drift every few years
L412[14:00:58] <Althego> i just use old mun contract satellites are relays
L413[14:01:57] <JVFoxy> I've got a relay at about 2200km polar orbit on kerbin... I'd go higher but already used up half the fuel in it
L414[14:02:16] <APlayer> Two satellites in high polar orbits 90° apart provide you with 100% link time from Kerbin to Mun orbit
L415[14:02:25] <APlayer> Can work with that
L416[14:02:54] <APlayer> No drift issues either
L417[14:04:24] <JVFoxy> mostly was trying to reduce the radio dead zone behind the mun, not eliminate it.

L419[14:05:32] <JVFoxy> if I setup my retro burn, pre-position the lander before lose of signal, I can still use full burn to establish an orbit

L427[14:10:28] <Althego> so exactly opposite of loss of signal
L428[14:10:40] <Althego> they managed to find a really bad tla
L429[14:13:27] <JVFoxy> Ya.. more familiar with Line of Site from table top stuff. Battletech MUX before it died off
L430[14:14:19] <JVFoxy> low radio frequencies don't follow the LOS strictly.. while higher frequencies do, though also suffer from more losses.
L431[14:14:20] <Althego> actually radio transmission term
L432[14:14:28] <Althego> or at least used there too
L433[14:14:33] <Althego> line of sight propagation
L434[14:14:38] <Althego> etc
L435[14:14:53] <Althego> so that is why i find it confusing when they use it as loss of signal
L436[14:14:59] <JVFoxy> in the case of ultra low frequncies.. LOS can go either way :)

Seems like there's a bug or something, as I've filled in the form, hit 'Create,' and nothing happens. No error message, no email confirmation, and certainly no account to log in to the wiki.
L440[14:44:42] <OrlandoFC> I'm new to KSP, but I'm a professional Technical Writer at my day job. I was hoping to put some work in contributing to the wiki, but alas I'm blocked.

L444[14:47:45] <OrlandoFC> I am happy to contribute, but I can't seem to create an account. In the forms it listed "UmbralRaptor" as someone that's an admin

L485[15:02:10] <BPlayer> OrlandoFC: Documentation is a thing KSP is not good with. I once tried to get into KSP modding, but I was totally put off by the fact that there is literally zero documentation on the KSP API (none whatsoever). People reverse engineer the executable to make mods, IIRC

L574[18:55:43] <Eddi|zuHause> there's a bit of "reflection on open end" or "reflection on closed end" difference
L575[18:55:53] <Eddi|zuHause> but i don't know the exact details on that
L576[18:56:23] <Fluburtur> well most winds work in a similar manner
L577[18:56:41] <Fluburtur> I made myself a flute with a wood style mouthpiece
L578[18:56:51] <Fluburtur> and sounds horrible
L579[18:57:55] <Eddi|zuHause> the difference with open and closed end is which of the 1/n-factor "natural" frequencies get amplified, with one it's all, and with the other only the odd ones
L580[18:59:02] <Eddi|zuHause> the 1/n factor is on the wavelengths, not the frequencys.
L581[18:59:27] <Eddi|zuHause> it would be factor n for frequencies
L582[18:59:30] <Fluburtur> kinda like radio antennas
L583[19:00:00] <Eddi|zuHause> it's sometimes called the "overtone"
L584[19:00:22] <Eddi|zuHause> "overtone series" is closely related to the maths term of the "harmonic series"
L585[19:00:40] <Eddi|zuHause> (which is the sum of all 1/n)
L586[19:00:56] <Fluburtur> I kinda know the natural harmonics of a guitar
