L173[11:18:22] <MilfordGreenBean> ummm
L174[11:18:24] <Althego> in the beginning when you dont know what you are doing, it is still hard to get to the moon

L179[11:18:44] <Althego> if you can do that, you can at least fly by the mun

L187[11:19:35] <MilfordGreenBean> :D
L188[11:19:40] <Althego> it took me a large amount of tries

L192[11:20:20] <MelfordGreenBean> lol we are noobs
L193[11:20:35] <Althego> you have to cancel all horizontal speed for a landing

L211[11:22:49] <MilfordGreenBean> we probably should have
L212[11:23:06] <UmbralRaptop> Scott Manley has good tutorials if you want to do the watching YouTube videos thing
L213[11:23:11] <Deddly> MilfordGreenBean: Think about it this way: In real life, when Nasa wanted to go to the moon, they did it step by step. First make a rocket that can get to space, then design one that can get to orbit. Then improve your design. See if you can make a hopper that can take off and land on Kerbin (Earth), learn to fly it. Finally, put what you have learned together and design your first successful moon mission :)
L214[11:23:29] <MilfordGreenBean> Ok i will check him out
L215[11:23:34] <MelfordGreenBean> yeah same
L216[11:23:45] <MilfordGreenBean> wow
L217[11:24:09] <UmbralRaptop> Anyway, a circular kerbin orbit means moving sideways at ~2300 m/s just above the atmosphere (70 km altitude), or ~2200 m/s at 100 km altitude
L218[11:24:10] <MilfordGreenBean> Deddly you sound like a pro LOL

L223[11:24:58] <MelfordGreenBean> do yall think those are our real names
L224[11:25:08] <Deddly> m/s means metres per second, it's a measurement of speed
L225[11:25:13] <MelfordGreenBean> ohhhh

L233[11:36:36] <packbart> I cheat a bit and use KER, so I get a readout of the horizontal speed vs the combined speed displayed by the navball
L234[11:37:56] <packbart> kill horizontal velocity some 20km above the mun, then switch SAS to surface retrograde, wait a bit, then burn to brake until near the surface. the easy and lazy approach to a Mun landing ;)
L235[11:41:14] <Althego> navball is enough for that. when the vector points up or down there is no horizontal speed

L237[11:42:40] <Deddly> May I humbly suggest killing velocity much closer to the surface? As close as possible, in fact.
L238[11:43:06] <packbart> True. So I wouldn't even need KER. In the early career, I always forget to add the KER chip. and with the ReStock model, it's even bigger
L239[11:46:40] <packbart> Deddly: I picked 20km because that allows some time for errors before crashing into the surface
L240[11:47:34] <packbart> now that I've landed several times, I might start closer. or look at doing a good gravity turn instead of the two-burn landing
L241[11:47:39] <Deddly> packbart, if you start your burn at the lowest point, you'll end up coming to a stop just above the surface :)

L392[18:12:39] <aradapilot> basically i'd like to get rid of the performance hit from FAR but I also don't want it to be super easy mode and lose all benefit of a lot of craft designs
L393[18:15:03] <packbart> try it ;)
L394[18:15:13] <packbart> something about drag cubes and https://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Atmosphere#Drag

L397[18:19:06] <UmbralRaptor> yeah, heating exists, parts can shield each other with respect to drag, lift and drag are affected by mach number, but there are still simplifications

L399[18:28:02] <aradapilot> FAR uses some sort of voxel logic to get object 'shape' into prograde (airflow) per frame, i think? looks like a drag cube has 6 precalcualted values and...i guess it weighted-averages them based on angle off prograde?
L400[18:29:03] <aradapilot> sounds like vanilla could still be both fun and challenging though
L401[18:29:09] <UmbralRaptor> Something like that
L402[18:32:01] <aradapilot> perhaps i should stop being a far snob (since...long before 1.0) and play it
L403[18:32:05] <aradapilot> play with it*
L404[18:33:47] <aradapilot> "As of version 1.0, all parts generate some lift as well as drag; however the lift-to-drag ratio is much higher from aerodynamic parts such as wings, control surfaces, etc. KSP also models drag created as a consequence of lifting force. "
L405[18:33:56] <aradapilot> that's good
L406[18:34:14] <aradapilot> can use lift for things without actual wings
L407[18:34:21] <aradapilot> fun on atmospheric [re]entry!
L408[18:35:01] <FLHerne> aradapilot: "I also don't want it to be super easy mode" <- if anything, stock aero is harder to work with if you know anything about aerodynamics
L409[18:35:24] <UmbralRaptor> I mean, stock also has less instrumentation
L410[18:37:08] <aradapilot> aye i don't expect it to give me stability curves and coefficients anymore, though trial and error isn't a bad thing here
L411[18:37:20] <FLHerne> In stock, it's very easy to create two craft that are the same shape but fly completely differently, because it cares about types of part

L414[18:37:41] <aradapilot> oh boo
L415[18:38:03] <aradapilot> i was hopign that note about 'all parts...' meant shape matters not type
L416[18:38:08] <aradapilot> in what way does type matter?
L417[18:38:14] <FLHerne> And for some craft, the amount of drag calculated by stock is just inexplicably weird
L418[18:38:39] <FLHerne> I mean, it's vastly better than the original model, it's not terrible
L419[18:38:47] <aradapilot> i...would love to see an example of that, if one's available
L420[18:39:09] <packbart> don't let the payload fairing be the root part. that's a bug, I guess
L421[18:39:27] <packbart> it creates huge amounts of drag. select a different root part and it's fine
L422[18:41:21] <aradapilot> ha
L423[18:41:22] <aradapilot> weird
L424[18:41:23] <UmbralRaptor> The pea/onion/pomegranate pods are bad drag wise
L425[18:41:40] <packbart> well, they're good for reentry, not so much for ascent ;)
L426[18:41:41] <aradapilot> those the soyuz-y ones?

L433[18:45:12] <packbart> actually, I never tried to launch the round pods in reverse, use them as kind of a nose cone
L434[18:45:43] <aradapilot> thanks flherne
L435[18:45:51] <packbart> ah, I see, there's a decoupler in the way
L436[18:45:58] <FLHerne> (detailed description of how stock aero works, which seems correct as far as I know, and lists some details I wasn't aware of)
L437[18:48:52] <aradapilot> so for context my current self-challenge is 'single stage to a laythe island and back, no parts lost, liquid fuel only, isru allowed but not pre-placed' and i'm doing well so far but murdering my frames/physics-time
L438[18:49:44] <FLHerne> aradapilot: Oh, and not mentioned there because it doesn't exist, stock doesn't really do supersonic flight at all
L439[18:50:40] <aradapilot> UmbralRaptor mentioned above that mach number is considered - but maybe not fully? like no benefits from strakes, area rule, etc?
L440[18:51:01] <FLHerne> So forget about shock cones or area ruling except to make things look pretty
L441[18:51:28] <aradapilot> shock cone intake's still the champ at high mach though, right?
L442[18:52:12] <FLHerne> aradapilot: Sorry, I meant shock cones as in the pressure thing, not the intake part
L443[18:52:27] <aradapilot> oh yeah
L444[18:52:42] <FLHerne> Intakes and per-part lift/drag are affected by speed
L445[18:52:56] <FLHerne> But overall craft shape doesn't matter
L446[18:53:40] <UmbralRaptor> Yeah, no area rule AFAIK, But more for an overall drag/heating
