L47[03:27:02] <JVFoxy> not so much the pits I worry about.. the valley and mountains get overly exaggerated closer you get to the center of the polar areas. Mostly because of how they did the map overlay.. not sure if its still an issue?

L57[03:49:40] <Althego> i was cleaning the keyboard, and pressed capslock
L58[03:50:00] <Mat2ch> Then built a plane and flew around Kerbin

L96[05:26:24] <Mat2ch> also you have to land it, too...
L97[05:32:00] <JVFoxy> when did 'soup era' end btw?
L98[05:32:21] <JVFoxy> I first poked KSP back when it was 0.18

L100[05:32:41] <JVFoxy> Mind you.. can't say I've gone past minmus yet.. sigh
L101[05:32:49] <taniwha> "soup era" replaced by "magic wing era" :P
L102[05:33:08] <Althego> what magic?
L103[05:33:13] <taniwha> JVFoxy: heh, I have bases on Mun, Minmus, Gilly, Duna and Pol
L104[05:33:35] <JVFoxy> attempted to jool.. a few times. I know transfer windows its just.. so far between
L105[05:33:37] <darsie> soup era?
L106[05:33:42] <taniwha> Althego: changing from high-aspect straight wings at slow speed to delta-wings at high speed
L107[05:34:03] <taniwha> (visible wing shape is (mostly) irrelevant)
L108[05:34:11] <Althego> hehe i didnt know that. it was just fuiny that all wing shapes always worked
L109[05:34:21] <taniwha> darsie: completely wrong aerodynamic model
L110[05:34:27] <darsie> ok
L111[05:34:32] <JVFoxy> those swept stock wings I find too far swept
L112[05:34:40] <Althego> darsie: also commonly known as the souposphere, before the atmosphere was really not realistic
L113[05:34:40] <taniwha> darsie: drag was based on part mass
L114[05:35:04] <VanDisaster> it's still souposphere :p
L115[05:35:11] <taniwha> biggest problem with that is an empty tank and a full tank would fall at exactly the same speed
L116[05:35:14] <VanDisaster> but old aero was hilarious
L117[05:35:19] <taniwha> (correct for Mun, wrong for Kerbin)
L118[05:35:22] <Althego> so you had huge drag, thus you always went straight up to 10 km before banking, now you can have a more reaistic ascent
L119[05:35:44] <JVFoxy> soup-sphere to me was back when it was so thick, no matter what you made, always ran out of fuel before reaching space even
L120[05:35:49] <VanDisaster> also you could just use blunt shapes
L121[05:35:58] <VanDisaster> very wide blunt shapes, usually
L122[05:36:01] <Althego> in fACT IT WAS BETTER
L123[05:36:08] <Althego> BECAUSE THE NOSECONES ADDED MASS, THUS DRAG
L124[05:36:19] <taniwha> Althego: fine control ;)
L125[05:36:40] <JVFoxy> you can still fly a box.. wings vs panels
L126[05:36:56] <taniwha> with enough power, even a brick can fly
L127[05:37:09] <JVFoxy> ya but in ksp... brick will fly. Just hide wings inside it
L128[05:37:16] <VanDisaster> stock air has body lift these days?
L129[05:37:19] <taniwha> install FAR :)
L130[05:37:28] <taniwha> VanDisaster: hacky
L131[05:37:31] <JVFoxy> ya.. stock has body lift but careful, sometimes doesn't mirror properly
L132[05:37:37] <Althego> there is a tiny bit of body lift with high enough angle
L133[05:37:48] <JVFoxy> even then.. it acts up
L134[05:37:52] <taniwha> FAR has done body lift (reasonably) correctly forever
L135[05:37:57] <Althego> but mostly it is limited with mk2 parts with built in lift
L136[05:38:04] <taniwha> (all parts)
L137[05:38:24] <taniwha> which is part of why rockets are (and always were) harder in FAR
L138[05:38:51] <taniwha> (sure, soup-days it took less ΔV getting to orbit, but good luck getting /through/ the atmosphere)
L139[05:39:12] <Althego> yes the jets working at near orbital speed at 79 km :)
L140[05:39:13] <Althego> 69
L141[05:39:27] <taniwha> 79km would be impressive ;)
L142[05:39:31] <VanDisaster> soup-day era FAR didn't have proper shape drag
L143[05:39:46] <VanDisaster> soup-day? soup-air
L144[05:39:46] <taniwha> VanDisaster: yes it did, since 0.25 or so
L145[05:39:58] <VanDisaster> not the voxel analysis bit
L146[05:40:02] <taniwha> yes, the voxels
L147[05:40:10] <JVFoxy> My speedbird could do 69km and even go a little faster than orbital speed... that was prior to jet engine revamp
L148[05:40:13] <taniwha> they're older than 1.0
L149[05:40:19] <VanDisaster> now I'm curious
L150[05:40:22] <VanDisaster> firing up a 0.9
L151[05:40:37] <taniwha> might have been 0.9
L152[05:40:45] <taniwha> well, 0.90
L153[05:40:54] <taniwha> 0.9 may not have had FAR ;)
L154[05:41:17] * JVFoxy has far back as 0.23
L155[05:41:40] <VanDisaster> I installed FAR a week after I started playing
L156[05:41:46] <VanDisaster> that was in 0.18 or something
L157[05:41:56] <JVFoxy> I started on friend's laptop with 0.18
L158[05:42:05] <taniwha> 1-2 weeks for me, 0.19
L159[05:42:21] <taniwha> looking for my first voxel/shape screenshot
L160[05:42:24] <VanDisaster> wow, 0.9 fires up fast
L161[05:42:37] <JVFoxy> lol
L162[05:43:11] <taniwha> I might be wrong and maybe it was 1.0 that added voxels
L163[05:44:04] <taniwha> 0.24 or 0.25 is when FAR got aero-confetti
L164[05:45:50] <taniwha> ok, into 1.0 shots, no sign of voxels
L165[05:45:52] <taniwha> sorry
L166[05:46:31] <JVFoxy> sorry, voxel..?
L167[05:46:32] <taniwha> ok, it was 1.0 from the looks of it
L168[05:46:33] <VanDisaster> don't think it's something worth apologising about :p

L178[05:49:04] <JVFoxy> or at least just shortly after... some posts about drag modeling too, but is going all over the place
L179[05:49:09] <VanDisaster> https://flic.kr/p/y8exqp yea sometime around then

L187[05:53:02] <taniwha> yeah, mine was the result of the voxels
L188[05:55:33] <taniwha> btw, first ever Tylo landing (second attempt) http://taniwha.org/~bill/screenshot4534.png
L189[05:56:11] <taniwha> (just the other night)
L190[05:56:48] <taniwha> first attempt went badly because I warped too close to the ground (which was odd: before, KSP wouldn't let be warp below 30km)
L191[05:57:13] <taniwha> also, second attempt had more ΔV
L192[05:57:32] <taniwha> The Pol-Tylo stage had more fuel
L193[05:57:43] <JVFoxy> lol... ksp didn't catch my warping fast enough. went from coming from lunar orbit, to instantly underwater by a few miles
L194[05:58:32] <taniwha> ah, 100k warp
L195[05:58:37] <taniwha> don't do that in Kerbin SoI

L200[05:59:29] <JVFoxy> ... ok correction, almost 120km underground somehow
L201[05:59:46] <taniwha> 2000s is a LONG time on trans-Mun orbit
L202[05:59:54] <taniwha> (when near the periapsis)
L203[06:00:17] <JVFoxy> I'm going to guess 1.8million kpa kind of a lot of pressure
L204[06:00:27] <taniwha> yeah
L205[06:00:36] <JVFoxy> but anyways... was one of the funnies I had in the game
L206[06:00:49] <Althego> you are under the ground surface too
L207[06:01:00] <JVFoxy> my other was the font glitch...
L208[06:01:10] <VanDisaster> https://flic.kr/p/rQdFY6 kPa is small change

L210[06:01:40] <taniwha> (some time later, Val stole the first and flung it almost out of the solar system)
L211[06:01:54] <JVFoxy> I wanna record the landing leg launching funny. Probe body, 4 little landing legs, reduce spring and damp down to 0... launch. watch it hit nearly 80g off the pad for some reason
L212[06:02:20] <taniwha> physx spring bug
L213[06:02:42] <JVFoxy> it'll compress, then suddenly 'snap'...
L214[06:02:56] <taniwha> when the suspension spring hits its limits, physx goofs and goes non-physical
L215[06:03:06] <taniwha> (recently fixed in physx, so in KSP... never?)
L216[06:03:15] <taniwha> (if KSP never updates beyond unity 2017)
L217[06:03:17] <Althego> hehe
L218[06:03:22] <Althego> how things are goin, yes never
L219[06:03:34] <JVFoxy> I hated when the landing gear bug/glitch thing hits.. you landing, back wheels touch, but soon as your front wheel comes down, it punches back and flips the plane over
L220[06:03:57] <taniwha> need stronger spring
L221[06:04:02] <taniwha> and slower decent rate
L222[06:04:07] <taniwha> it's tricky
L223[06:04:21] <Althego> decent descent rate :)
L224[06:04:26] <JVFoxy> no... was something else going on. even strong spring will cause problems
L225[06:04:27] <taniwha> that too

L228[06:04:58] <taniwha> JVFoxy: spring, damper, /and/ descent rate
L229[06:05:03] <JVFoxy> the lvl0 landing wheels were horrible for just exploding if a fly so much as touches them

L231[06:06:16] <JVFoxy> no .. my flying is good. been causes where front wheel didn't bounce on landing, but soon as you hit the brakes, it compressed, started trying to kick back twice as much force
L232[06:06:35] <taniwha> JVFoxy: spring is too weak for the mass of the plane
L233[06:06:57] <taniwha> but it still comes down to that physx bug
L234[06:07:08] <taniwha> you overextended the spring, physx goofed
L235[06:07:12] <JVFoxy> some cases, if that landing leg isn't exactly straight, it can cause problems too
L236[06:07:49] <JVFoxy> thankfully, it hasn't been a problem these days..
L237[06:07:56] <VanDisaster> better than the version that used to make the runway explode every time I landed on it
L238[06:08:11] <JVFoxy> old wheels, couldn't even set spring/damps
L239[06:08:38] <taniwha> JVFoxy: yes you could: part.cfg hacking :)
L240[06:08:45] <JVFoxy> or the medium landing wheel, couldn't even steer.. was sad, till that got fixed

L244[06:09:25] <JVFoxy> medium.. not large. Medium has one axel, two wheels
L245[06:09:37] <Althego> the plane is fine. the landing strip exploded
L246[06:09:39] <taniwha> JVFoxy: yes
L247[06:09:42] <taniwha> just saying
L248[06:10:08] <JVFoxy> I've hacked.. I rearranged gauges in the mk2 cockpit once... made an adapter section into a service module with extra resources
L249[06:10:14] <taniwha> however, because of my WIP input mod, lack of wheel steering is not a problem
L250[06:10:18] <taniwha> I have brake steering :)

L358[08:49:10] <Althego> they do shoot infraread, just not beams
L359[08:49:15] <Althego> and not modulated
L360[08:49:42] <GlassYuri> you can modulate it by blinking really fast :P

L362[08:49:50] <Althego> or not really
L363[08:49:58] <Eddi|zuHause> they don't "shoot" more IR than the rest of your body

L368[09:09:37] <Althego> even now, designing such thing takes days
L369[09:14:07] <Mat2ch> with or without hyperedit?
L370[09:14:29] <Mat2ch> 7400 m/s dV needed...
L371[09:14:30] <APlayer> I disagree that the radiation is mostly the same. Your eyelids (i.e. normal skin) has completely different radiation properties from your eye (i.e. the white part and the iris)
L372[09:14:31] <Mat2ch> that's huge
L373[09:14:53] <APlayer> So you definitely could modulate it in some way
L374[09:15:39] <Althego> they area bit different temperature
L375[09:15:42] <APlayer> Mat2ch: In RSS, the delta-V to launch something into LEO is 9 - 10 km/s. You start at the ground, though, so no need to haul it over to Eve.
L376[09:16:01] <Althego> more like 8k
L377[09:16:04] <APlayer> You may want to consider constructing something with docking and IR
L378[09:16:13] <Althego> not including safety margin
L379[09:16:26] <APlayer> Althego: Not sure if 8k is really possible, but definitely not with my piloting skills
L380[09:16:43] <APlayer> I mean, orbital ground velocity is about 7.6 km/s
L381[09:16:44] <Althego> no, i mean m/s delta v
L382[09:16:55] <Althego> for eve launch, from sea level
L383[09:17:01] <APlayer> Ah, Eve launch
L384[09:17:49] <Althego> it is still easier to add mroe delta v than to land precisely on a peak, that is not even on the equator
L385[09:17:52] <APlayer> Good point, you may launch from a mountain, the savings are considerable AFAIK
L386[09:18:15] <APlayer> Rovers are a thing
L387[09:18:32] <Althego> the ultimate solution would be an electric prop flying the rocket up to 10 km, where it is around kerbin sea level pressure
L388[09:18:49] <Althego> no, they are not really a thing, unless you make saves eveery 100 m
L389[09:19:23] <APlayer> Not sure how it works in 1.6, but in 1.3 rovers were still a practical thing
L390[09:19:48] <Althego> they are never practical, always flip or explode. and on eve they consume huge amount of electricity
L391[09:20:20] <APlayer> Flipping is something you can avoid if you are careful, never had explosion issues
L392[09:20:45] <APlayer> Well, I'm sure I had them a few times, everything explodes now and again in KSP, but no more problems with rovers than with anything else
L393[09:23:42] <Mat2ch> APlayer: but in RSS you have much better engines and denser fuel

L459[11:40:42] <Rolf> none that I know of but then there WILL be a use
L460[11:40:47] <Rolf> and its huge resource
L461[11:40:49] <packbart> which reminds me to look at that Interplanetary Launchpads mod
L462[11:41:05] <packbart> s/Inter/Extra/
L463[11:41:10] <Rolf> He3 is maybe inch thick on top? but whole moon
L464[11:41:29] <Eddi|zuHause> APlayer: that's basically like the westward expansion of the US... loads of basically free land, and the first one to manage to settle there gets it?
L465[11:41:34] <Rolf> ok lemme look up if he3 is correct
L466[11:41:51] <Rolf> I was. https://www.explainingthefuture.com/helium3.html
L467[11:41:55] <APlayer> Eddi, I suppose that's about what will happen
L468[11:42:10] <Rolf> happened in america
L469[11:42:13] <Eddi|zuHause> Rolf: yes, He3 is a byproduct of constant radiation impact on the moon
L470[11:42:21] <APlayer> Bonus, no need to shoo away any native peoples
L471[11:42:27] <Althego> first make a working fusion reactor
L472[11:42:31] <Rolf> ya wanted to make sure that I understand and remember correctly
L473[11:42:32] <Althego> then you can start collecting helium 3
L474[11:42:43] <Rolf> cant test reactor with no he3
L475[11:42:45] <Eddi|zuHause> Althego: yes, exactly what i meant
L476[11:43:03] <Eddi|zuHause> Rolf: there are enough ways to get He3 in testing amounts
L477[11:43:06] <Rolf> so there must be in least minimal gathering of he3 and shipping it to research
L478[11:43:08] <Eddi|zuHause> Rolf: without going to the moon
L479[11:43:08] <Althego> actually you can test a fusion reactor to a degree without helium 3
L480[11:43:11] <Althego> and in fact they do
L481[11:43:12] <Rolf> hmm ok
L482[11:43:40] <Althego> i remember the first test of the windelstein 7-x stellerator (what a cool name) was with hydrogen plasma
L483[11:43:52] <Rolf> 15kg a year according to that site, on earth from maintance of nuclear weapons
L484[11:44:13] <Rolf> also my recall of inches is wrong, its few meters deep
L485[11:44:17] <Althego> oh wait, the reverse
L486[11:44:25] <Althego> it was helium plasma first, then hydrogen
L487[11:44:25] <Eddi|zuHause> Althego: afaik, they use a mixture of D and T to make He3 in that
L488[11:44:30] <Althego> but not helium 3
L489[11:45:03] <Eddi|zuHause> He3 is basically an intermediate product to He4
L490[11:45:21] <Rolf> Althego: theres a way to launch off using strangely enough, active support system to create huge bridge pretty high up in sky
L491[11:45:37] <Rolf> cost maybe few billion bucks but you can launch megatons afterwards
L492[11:45:46] <Rolf> makes space setups hell of a lot easier
L493[11:45:54] <Althego> how does that work?
L494[11:46:14] <Eddi|zuHause> Rolf: sounds very fiction
L495[11:46:27] <Rolf> Eddi|zuHause: it is, but physics sound
L496[11:46:34] <Rolf> which it can be built
L497[11:46:38] <Rolf> *means
L498[11:46:55] <Eddi|zuHause> Rolf: if you can build that, you can also build a proper space elevator

L503[11:47:30] <Rolf> space elevator needs extremely strong material. space loop (found name) does need strong material but not nearly as strong
L504[11:47:46] <Althego> and you must keep it running
L505[11:47:58] <Rolf> if you slow down it would land into ocean
L506[11:48:08] <Rolf> its how you rise it also
L507[11:48:16] <Rolf> increase active support power and it rises
L508[11:48:52] <Rolf> basically build it, float it out to ocean, build ends attach it, then do tests whatever then rise it
L509[11:49:05] <Rolf> if it fails well it'll crash into ocean and sink
L510[11:49:21] <Althego> and destroys eerything near
L511[11:49:29] <Rolf> 4:00 shows one of endpoints
L512[11:49:39] <Rolf> well yeah but then theres likely nothing near anyway

L518[11:53:49] <Rolf> space towers (next in 3 video series) explains more about active support system
L519[11:54:06] <Althego> also have to keep those running
L520[11:54:11] <Althego> otherwise they collapse
L521[11:54:11] <Rolf> there is also space ring (forgot whgat they called it) version. its around entire world
L522[11:54:35] <Rolf> Althego: yeah though its apparently designed to be able to land on ocean so can depower for maintance
L523[11:54:43] <Rolf> everything in world needs maintance.
L524[11:54:54] <Eddi|zuHause> Rolf: but how exactly does "active" support cost less energy than a rocket launch?
L525[11:54:56] <Althego> anyway these are currently too far out
L526[11:55:24] <Eddi|zuHause> Rolf: this thing is at least a century away, more like two
L527[11:55:30] <Rolf> never said less energy, just less chemical reaction dependancy and can launch far heavier stuff into space
L528[11:55:50] <Rolf> which means launch costs far less which kickstarts space programs
L529[11:56:09] <Rolf> you can see result of cutting space launch cost by a factpr
L530[11:56:15] <Rolf> imange if it cost 0.1%
L531[11:57:10] <Eddi|zuHause> Rolf: a space elevator (or whatever other structure) is not a thing you "start" a space program with
L532[11:57:43] <Rolf> yeah we would start with chemical rockets
L533[11:57:48] <Rolf> we already did
L534[11:58:01] <Rolf> but ulimately its capping on how much we can launch
L535[11:58:16] <Eddi|zuHause> Rolf: yes, but we're not nearly near that limit
L536[11:58:41] <Eddi|zuHause> and i doubt we're reaching this limit during my lifetime
L537[11:58:57] <Rolf> 9:30 on that video show crude explaination on how active support for launch loops works
L538[11:59:33] <Rolf> I bet can build one using garden hoses. a model of one anyway
L539[12:00:23] <Eddi|zuHause> uhm, that's not the point?
L540[12:01:27] <Eddi|zuHause> Rolf: you need such a thing if you want to carry hundreds of people per day to mars and back
L541[12:02:00] <Rolf> yeah thats the problem, you need demend to build, and you need to build for demend to exist
L542[12:02:04] <Eddi|zuHause> Rolf: but we won't have a need for that frequent/large scale travel for at least 100 years
L543[12:02:52] <Rolf> its definitely not something need to build right now but soon
L544[12:03:13] <Rolf> 100 years is "soon" in humanity terms but yeah
L545[12:03:22] <Eddi|zuHause> i'm disputing your claim of "soon"

L632[16:25:21] <JVFoxy> ok good... because that be quite a lot of energy to burn off for something big to go directly to landing.. go for aero capture first, maybe even a couple of them to help slow things down first
L633[16:25:53] <Mat2ch> I'll bring enough fuel to do a powered insertion :D
