L27[03:07:56] <Rolf> since theyre orbiting they would see full earth often enough
L28[03:08:12] <Rolf> lol alt
L29[03:08:16] <OneNick332Days> Althego: hahah, nailed it.
L30[03:08:27] <Althego> they area faf from earth, probably going to the moon, they would see a full moon too
L31[03:08:40] <Rolf> yeah evenually
L32[03:09:00] <Althego> that at least would have wrked as a joke
L33[03:09:09] <JVFoxy> I'm in orbit of minmus... so kerbin, mun.. minmus, triple shot
L34[03:10:02] <JVFoxy> meh... throw away your candles? I would'nt do that if you in the polar vortex... might need it for heat
L35[03:10:44] <Rolf> lol
L36[03:10:56] <Althego> polar vortex?
L37[03:11:02] <Rolf> yeah
L38[03:11:03] <JVFoxy> east coast US...
L39[03:11:05] <Rolf> its hitting usa hard
L40[03:11:14] <JVFoxy> mean while... rain here west coast
L41[03:11:22] <Rolf> thankfully im too far west at almost snowproof area
L42[03:11:32] <JVFoxy> guy I watch RV'ing about the US... florida, he's sweat'n

L47[03:13:32] <JVFoxy> remote robotic lander probe
L48[03:13:49] <Althego> lowest possible?
L49[03:13:56] <Althego> for landing i recommend 0 :)
L50[03:14:18] <JVFoxy> mother ship.. 18km only gives me small windows to command it down to the surfaec
L51[03:14:24] <Rolf> pre-land orbit? last time I used 4k something
L52[03:14:40] <Rolf> but remote control dunno
L53[03:14:53] <Rolf> dont you add relays around moon?

L55[03:15:29] <JVFoxy> lander sitting in service bay.. two pilots and science officer
L56[03:15:51] <Althego> tiny lander
L57[03:16:02] <Rolf> hopefully none of em a kerbal version of werewolf
L58[03:16:12] <Althego> just land on the side that is facing towards kerbin
L59[03:16:13] <JVFoxy> mind you.. think first time tried landing, I retro-d a little too hard
L60[03:16:36] <Althego> also in on the day side
L61[03:18:29] <JVFoxy> just testing an idea... I can land, hop to another biome, redock, refuel, repeat at least once before I start delving into the ships fuel stores
L62[03:19:04] <JVFoxy> sci package for at least two bioms.. sci officer can extra, reset things..
L63[03:19:48] <JVFoxy> half tempted to EVa a kerbal down to the surface.. I'm only done 150m/s at 18km orbit.. eva pack sitll has 600m dv right?
L64[03:20:06] <Althego> i would design the first minmus lander with 1 scientist, for one landing. if i land in a good way, with the reserves i can do maybe 2 other biomes
L65[03:20:19] <Althego> the second one would use a nuclear engine for all the biomes
L66[03:20:42] <Althego> the 3rd one would be robotic and take all the gravity and sesismic readings from all the biomes
L67[03:21:07] <Althego> and with that and similar probes mapping the moon in orbit, the sciencetree is complete
L68[03:22:47] <JVFoxy> actually I was testing to see if the command ship and robotic lander probe thing works like before.
L69[03:23:32] <JVFoxy> in teh past I had a crewed ship with dual relays tucked into a single service bay to be deployed around minmus or the mun
L70[03:24:17] <JVFoxy> career... ya got teh lander can things. Just sto;; meed tp im;pcl sp,es ,pre [arts tp ,ale a [rp[er crew ;amder
L71[03:24:27] <JVFoxy> oh whoops..
L72[03:24:32] <Althego> hehe
L73[03:25:00] <Rolf> gonna love wrong offset lol
L74[03:25:04] <JVFoxy> hand shifted one key over.. was saying I'm in career, I still need to unlock some more parts before I can make a proper lander
L75[03:25:25] <JVFoxy> .. bad habit, typing while looking at another screen
L76[03:25:49] <Althego> what, proper lander? by the tech you have for the capsule, you should be able to make a lander
L77[03:26:22] <JVFoxy> I could but eh.. asthetics..
L78[03:26:24] <Althego> there is the probe core cheat for 1 scientist: the probe core adds sas, the scientist adds out of line of sight control
L79[03:26:47] <Althego> if the lem was good enough for nasa, despite its looks, any ugly lander is good foir me
L80[03:27:10] <JVFoxy> lem had windows you can use to look down with
L81[03:27:20] <Althego> so does the lander can
L82[03:27:31] <Althego> and you dont need windows
L83[03:27:45] <JVFoxy> I don't know.. its just me, an all in one craft.. jack of all trades, but pro at none

L95[04:01:10] <Althego> now off to the second phase
L96[04:01:40] <Althego> the placement of the self hammering probe
L97[04:04:17] <JVFoxy> mars claw game
L98[04:05:27] <Althego> funny fact, the self hammering effect didnt work in total vacuum
L99[04:05:32] <Althego> when they tested it
L100[04:05:44] <Althego> they need a tiny bit of pressure to keep it in place
L101[04:28:43] <Althego> there is also a retroreflector on the lander, but there is nothing around mars that could use it. even if they have something in the works, it is around 2 years until it is launched and commissioned. doesnt it get all dusty until then?
L102[04:32:53] <JVFoxy> depends how much wind they get
L103[04:33:19] <JVFoxy> and bleh.. telemetry fail.. signal was too much garbage I guess
L104[04:40:32] <Althego> what kind of antenna do you use?
L105[05:03:10] <JVFoxy> self made... 6 element for 2 meters

L159[08:52:28] <Althego> or optimize fuel usage somehow
L160[08:53:25] <Deddly> I'm already running two engines instead of four at 1/3 throttle
L161[08:53:39] <Deddly> How much can I save by going even slower?
L162[08:53:47] <Deddly> 20 m/s

L164[08:55:41] <Deddly> nice
L165[08:56:25] <Fluburtur> I put it in RTH so it was circling around home so I could take pictures
L166[08:56:26] <Mat2ch> Uhm, you don't save fuel if you just throttle down in space. And running less engines doesn't help either if they're all the same
L167[08:56:45] <Althego> not in space
L168[08:56:47] <Althego> in water
L169[08:56:50] <Mat2ch> ah
L170[08:57:01] <Mat2ch> get rid of the extra engines ;)
L171[08:57:38] <Althego> also there used to be a mod with a fusion engine, that did get more efficient with throttling down (in scott's interstellar quest)
L172[08:57:48] <Deddly> Yeah, getting rid of engines would save weight. I suppose I could ditch the plane
L173[08:58:02] <Deddly> But I like my plane :(
L174[08:58:08] <Althego> because the fuel is the coolant, and the less collant you put through, the hotter it gets, so the faster it goes, thus isp goes up
L175[08:59:33] <Althego> i want to sell an old gallente control tower small and some research labs and things with it at dodixie ix moon 20, federation navy assembly plant. anybody buying?
L176[08:59:45] <Althego> it has been there in the hangar for years
L177[08:59:48] <Deddly> Oh wait... my plane has a bunch of science points stored on it. I can't just dump it

L183[09:01:52] <Deddly> Hmm, let me calculate a little here...
L184[09:02:31] <Deddly> The plane has 52 units of fuel I can salvage to get a tiny bit more range on the boat
L185[09:03:13] <Deddly> And since I has planned to do more missions with the plane, I have oxidiser stored on the boat to power the vernor thrusters on the plane
L186[09:03:30] <Deddly> (The plane has Vernor's for VTOL control)
L187[09:03:50] <Deddly> So... if I dump the plane, I can also dump some unneeded oxidiser
L188[09:04:31] <Deddly> ... and I do have quite a bit of that. Why on earth did I pack so much??
L189[09:04:54] <Deddly> OK... we're taking extreme measures. The plane has to go
L190[09:05:58] <Deddly> I suppose... I could crash the plane into some unneeded external parts of the ship to save weight there too, but I think the fuel use and Kerbal risk of doing that isn't worth the weight saving
L191[09:06:53] <Mat2ch> Also you can fly in another plane any time
L192[09:07:34] <Althego> you can also just flay the plane somewhere and recover it
L193[09:07:43] <Deddly> Well that's true. This particular one has has quite a few successful missions on this flight, though
L194[09:07:56] <Althego> in fact recover it with the science on board
L195[09:08:00] <Deddly> It's going to be painful to just dump it in the ocean
L196[09:08:05] <Deddly> Well I could do that
L197[09:08:47] <Deddly> I always felt that it seems cheaty to recover from the other side of the world, but I suppose there is a cost penalty

L222[09:54:48] <Deddly> Verti-Go has been dumped in the sea :|
L223[09:55:54] <Althego> you have been fined for littering
L224[09:56:00] <Deddly> Hmm. Dang
L225[09:56:29] <Deddly> On the plus side, it has noticeably affected my efficiency.
L226[10:02:07] <Deddly> Could have been worse - I could have dumped oxidiser in the sea if I had a mod, so...

L228[10:32:41] <Althego> it depends on what the ksp oxidizer is. if it is oxygen, it just evaporates after a while

L233[11:04:13] <Mat2ch> Deddly: I still don't know why we can't vent stuff we don't need :/
L234[11:05:38] <Althego> yes that should be in the base game
L235[11:05:49] <Althego> for sstos it can often happen that you carry some surplus oxidizer
L236[11:10:14] <Deddly> Well there have been a lot of suggestions for that and as far as I know, the devs are aware that some people want it. So who knows?
L237[11:10:53] <Althego> simply they should add a way in the tank menu to pump to dev null :)
L238[11:13:08] <Deddly> Yeah. The only downside with that would be the potential for accidental miss-clicks
L239[11:17:49] <Mat2ch> well, there are so many things that can go wrong in the dialogs...
L240[11:18:02] <Mat2ch> like pressing "decouple" on a decoupler...
L241[11:18:08] <Deddly> True
L242[11:18:12] <Althego> one thing that really bothers me with pumpiong
L243[11:18:16] <Althego> it moves the buttons
L244[11:18:21] <Althego> so that you cant click fast enough
L245[11:18:29] <Althego> just why do this?
L246[11:18:38] <Deddly> What do you mean?
L247[11:18:50] <Althego> when you click start
L248[11:18:59] <Althego> then the cursor will be above the window
L249[11:19:02] <Althego> and the stop button moves
L250[11:19:13] <Althego> just who comes up wioth such inhumane interface
L251[11:19:55] <Deddly> HarvestR ;)
L252[11:20:25] <Althego> alternative would be a popup with amount
L253[11:20:28] <Deddly> Yes that is awful
L254[11:20:50] <Deddly> If you want to just pump a tiny bit, you can't stop it fast enough
L255[11:20:57] <Althego> exactly
L256[11:21:03] <Althego> especially if you want to balance
L257[11:21:09] <Althego> bevauce you mispumped :)
L258[11:21:28] <Althego> attention. mis-jump. warp drive destroyed
L259[11:21:48] <Althego> oh wait it is hyperdrive there
L260[11:34:12] <Mat2ch> Althego: the camera is centered around the CoM. If you move fuel the CoM changes and so the camera...
L261[11:34:23] <Mat2ch> I still don't get why the camera is fixed like this
L262[11:34:35] <Mat2ch> It has annoyed me from the start
L263[11:34:51] <Mat2ch> why can't I move the camera around like in the airplane hangar?
L264[11:35:14] <Deddly> He was talking about the buttons for fuel transfer start/stop
L265[11:35:17] <Mat2ch> Especially on huge ships this would really help
L266[11:35:25] <Deddly> As to this other issue, you can "aim camera" now
L267[11:36:02] <Mat2ch> ah, by "move button" you mean the "Stop" button is in a different position than the "in" and "out" buttons?
L268[11:36:11] <Althego> yes the camera movement, or the lack of it is also annoying
L269[11:36:13] <Deddly> Yup
L270[11:36:23] <Deddly> But the camera can easily be fixed
L271[11:36:24] <Mat2ch> oh yes, that's annoying, too :D
L272[11:36:28] <Althego> for large ships if you want to look int on almsot hidden part, you have hard time
L273[11:36:46] <Deddly> Guys... it's so easy...
L274[11:36:56] <Deddly> Right click a part - "aim camera"
L275[11:37:09] <Mat2ch> yes, now, but only a small help :|
L276[11:37:13] <Althego> and that didnt exist not so long ago

L286[11:40:42] <Deddly> Maybe that's because a lot of mod's functionality is now stock
L287[11:41:10] <Mat2ch> KAS? Infernal robotics?
L288[11:41:27] <Deddly> I mean, sure, KSP is several years old now. A lot of the initial fervour is over, but the game itself has never been better IMHO
L289[11:41:55] <Deddly> OK KAS and IR are absolutely the things I WISH were stock
L290[11:42:00] <Deddly> What version are they on?
L291[11:42:03] <Mat2ch> true. But it needs a major overhaul for the next 1ĂŸ years
L292[11:42:08] <Mat2ch> *10
L293[11:43:09] <Deddly> If they ever did make hinges and mechanical parts, I bet an entire new player base would appear
L294[11:43:36] <Mat2ch> well, we'd need an engine overhaul for this to handle more parts
L295[11:43:49] <Mat2ch> My eve lander didn't have too many and it lagged a lot.
L296[11:44:04] <Mat2ch> I've got a Ryzen 2700X. It shouldn't.
L297[11:44:21] <Deddly> Either that or a way to use all cores on gaming CPUs
L298[11:44:33] <Deddly> All cores simultaneously
L299[11:44:41] <Mat2ch> The problem here is unity and C#. For so many scientific calculations you want something that runs on bare metal, as fast as possible.
L300[11:45:08] <Deddly> A custom engine would be amazing. But then we'd still be on 0.7
L301[11:45:29] <Deddly> The original scope of the game was much smaller
L302[11:46:07] <Deddly> If you find the original KSP thread on Orbiter, HarvesteR's plans for the game were not at all advanced
L303[11:46:24] <Mat2ch> KIS is on 1.6, KAS on 1.5., IR? No idea.
L304[11:46:45] <Deddly> And it's version locked?
L305[11:47:09] <Mat2ch> For a small, funny game Unity is enough. But if you do something on the scale of KSP you need something faster.
L306[11:47:37] <Mat2ch> Like Unreal Engine 4 for the graphics and all the calculations done in C/C++ and as optimized as possible
L307[11:48:09] <Deddly> C is for wimps. I demand x86 assembler
L308[11:48:11] <Deddly> ;)
L309[11:48:13] <Mat2ch> and then the UI needs more planning tools.
L310[11:48:24] <Mat2ch> use gcc, it makes ASM from C/C++ code ;P
L311[11:49:46] <Mat2ch> Well, that's one way to optimize calculations. Write the code in C, generate ASM from it with gcc, see if it is efficient and if not optimize the C code (there are many language constructs that can help you)
L312[11:50:39] <Mat2ch> But adding assembly code makes it neither portable, nor readable/understandable
L313[11:51:23] <Mat2ch> https://github.com/meirumeiru/InfernalRobotics/releases the most recent thing I can find about IR
L314[11:52:00] <Deddly> Yeah, it's nice we have Mac and Linux versions of the same game
L315[11:53:29] <Mat2ch> well, a KSP2 will probably never happen. That's why I'm going to fetch dinner now. Laters!

L434[15:41:36] <NeilKerman> is that a bad plan?
L435[15:42:08] <Deddly> Straight up is fine for a suborbital flight. Could you post a picture of the rocket?
L436[15:42:51] <Deddly> Tilting isn't necessary and will just make you land farther away from KSC, reducing your recovery value

L478[15:58:04] <KrazyKrl> well, it'll certainly go straight with a few fins... now the problem is will it go straight where you want it to go
L479[15:58:27] <APlayer> Make sure the initial TWR is above 1.5
L480[15:58:31] <NeilKerman> tourists just want a suborbital
L481[15:58:53] <APlayer> It will gain speed fast enough not to tip over before the fins get effective
L482[15:58:59] <KrazyKrl> which means altitide > 70km.
L483[15:59:13] <APlayer> In that case, 2.5 km/s is overkill
L484[15:59:20] <APlayer> And dangerous, even, when you are coming down
L485[15:59:23] <KrazyKrl> you can probably do with with 1km/sec or lower.
L486[16:00:02] <APlayer> Make sure to angle the craft just the slightest bit, you don't want to come crashing down vertically (you will either burn up or not slow down quickly enough)

L506[16:16:05] <darsie> Make a second stage and add some boosters or get the terrier and you're gone.
L507[16:16:50] <KrazyKrl> isn't it slightly cheaper to burn straight for escape?
L508[16:17:33] <darsie> Escape velocity is independent of direction.
L509[16:18:18] <darsie> But yeah, burning prograde probably saves you some gravity losses.
