L138[18:00:40] <SporkWitch> true, but i'm usually pretty good about having a topical one handy for any situation lol. I've followed it religiously almost since the start (and at one point went backto catch up, which was much easier 20 years ago lol), though kind of stopped the last 5 or so
L139[18:01:45] <SporkWitch> darsie: needless to say, KSP is very popular at NASA. The comic is about the original planned release date of KSP2 and its alignment with the NASA missions planned for the same time window. They're talking to a KSP2 begging to push it back because of everyone calling out sick to play KSP2 on launch day
L140[18:02:12] <SporkWitch> *talking to a KSP2 dev
L141[18:02:17] <darsie> mhm. Why is the dev team offering NASA a moon?
L142[18:02:49] <SporkWitch> he's ignoring them and speaking to the KSP fans about how much of what's been stated for KSP2 is in direct response to what fans wanted

L176[20:12:36] <Guest39894> Hello Space friends,
L177[20:12:36] <Guest39894> i am a Kerbal noob and tried a mission to build an Akku 200 (Ring) on an old satelite in space. - I can fly to the satelite with an engineer, but how can assemble the akku?
L178[20:12:54] <Guest39894> Can you please help me?
L179[20:13:15] <Pinkbeast> Probably you want to dock or Klaw it on
L180[20:15:00] <Guest39894> Docking is not possible, because there is no port. Okay, i try the claw - thanks
L181[20:19:57] <SporkWitch> always a good idea to leave at lease one free docking port on anything you think you might possibly want to expand later or leave in space. They're cheap and light, so easy to add
L182[20:20:15] <SporkWitch> You can even use a docking port in staging, so you can use it to drop off the last engine

L184[20:22:55] <Guest39894> thank you for your help. I will try the mission satelite with this https://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Advanced_Grabbing_Unit
L185[20:23:42] <SporkWitch> That can work, though it's not ideal for a permanent thing. Forget if it's a limitation of one of the mods I use, but you can't transfer fuel or personnel through a claw
L186[20:24:25] <SporkWitch> (some of my mods are to add some realism while keeping things fine, like not letting you move kerbals through pieces that you couldn't logically move through, and can't transfer items or fluids without a logical connecting path)
L187[20:24:35] <darsie> I thought engineers can put stuff on nearby vessles, don't need to connect them. Can also use EVA thrusters to get to it.
L188[20:25:40] <SporkWitch> yes and no. there are rules about weight and not all things can be stored. So you can reposition some non-storable things if they were already attached, and gravity allows for it.
L189[20:26:32] <raptop> In general, proper rings and structures with loops need docking ports to work
L190[20:27:17] <darsie> What is Akku 200 (ring)?
L191[20:27:38] <darsie> hmm
L192[20:27:55] <SporkWitch> not finding anything on google

L195[20:29:24] <darsie> s/Luft­wiederstand/Luftwiderstand
L196[20:30:06] <SporkWitch> ah, battery
L197[20:31:09] <SporkWitch> I think you can put those in storage, but if not, you can definitely just mount it somewhere and use an engineer to reattach it where you want
L198[20:34:14] <Guest39894> with the engineer i can reattach parts to the satelite, when it is connected through a claw. Right?
L199[20:34:35] <SporkWitch> technically you don't need to connect it, but it will make life easier since you don't need to worry about them drifting apart while you're working.
L200[20:35:47] <Guest39894> how far away can i working without connecting?
L201[20:36:00] <darsie> Your kerbal engineer has a limited manipulation range of about 10 meters. https://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/EVA_Construction_Mode
L202[20:37:38] <Pinkbeast> Coo, vanilla KAS, I forgot that existed now
L203[20:43:17] <SporkWitch> yeah, forget when they added it
L204[20:46:12] <raptop> Looks like it was added in 1.11 (2020-12-17)
L205[20:47:31] <SporkWitch> still REALLY clunky, but hey, it's there. Why I'm hopefully that they really smooth the interface and interaction for orbital and base construction in KSP2 (remember a few months ago when I was using UKS and whatnot and the "expansion" phase of doing the addition made the physics go crazy and spun the station apart? lol)

L207[21:12:33] <Pinkbeast> I'm still in 1.9
L208[21:14:29] <raptop> For RSS purposes?
L209[21:20:04] <Pinkbeast> No, just the overall way that if you play KSP intermittently and keep updating you basically spend all your time fiddling with your mod set
L210[21:22:44] <Pinkbeast> I guess now 1.12 is officially Final I could take that step
L211[22:13:09] <Azander> any word on KSP2 ? or is it till "when we get it done" ?
L212[22:14:17] <sandbox> done when it's done
L213[22:14:59] <darsie> It'll be done 10x faster than fusion power.
