L50[13:26:32] <LunchBot> Jeb uses his headlights to accelerate to two c. Say what you like about the alien killer crabs, but by God they can organise an invasion! We have a lot to learn from them - though we'd better be quick!

L52[13:42:07] ⇨ Joins: Ezriilc (~Ezriilc@96.59.122.65)
L53[14:01:45] <Eddi|zuHause> so, i started the game again, and turns out i have a million tourists that want to land on the mun...
L54[14:02:20] <Althego> easy money
L55[14:02:50] <Althego> you can also collect science too
L56[14:03:18] <darsie> Easiest money is waiting for a high value asteroid search contract.
L57[14:03:29] <Eddi|zuHause> but now i have to design a mun lander with high occupancy.
L58[14:03:45] <darsie> They go up to 10 M or so.
L59[14:05:17] <Eddi|zuHause> how does this stock inventory work nowadays, can i give a scientist a thermometer in the inventory and he can go around taking measurements?
L60[14:05:41] <Eddi|zuHause> or should i build a rover for the "measure at different locations" contracts.
L61[14:05:54] <darsie> rovers are slow
L62[14:06:12] <darsie> and dangerous
L63[14:06:20] <darsie> or unreliable
L64[14:07:15] <Eddi|zuHause> i need to test a plane landing gear on suborbital trajectory on the mun
L65[14:07:39] <Althego> just take it with yourself
L66[14:07:50] <Althego> while landing or taking off you can do that
L67[14:09:16] <darsie> Eddi|zuHause: Someone used a plane landing gear for lithobraking, so it's a reasonable contract ;).
L68[14:09:17] <Eddi|zuHause> the small retractable landing gear doesn't come with a motor, right?
L69[14:10:32] <Eddi|zuHause> but back to the original question, can a scientist take measurements with a thermometer in his hand?
L70[14:11:24] <darsie> I don't think so. You can try on the launch pad.
L71[14:20:08] <Eddi|zuHause> putting a heatshield on halves my return-dV
L72[14:26:25] <Eddi|zuHause> hm... i can't figure out how to use inventory items
L73[14:27:21] <FLHerne> Eddi|zuHause: it doesn't
L74[14:27:39] <FLHerne> I've built rovers with it though, just need a little horizontal rocket engine :p
L75[14:29:43] <Eddi|zuHause> it would be great hovering over a tourist in crew assignment to see where they want to go
L76[14:34:56] <Eddi|zuHause> i really don't want to do precise rocket-hopping to take the measurements at specific locations
L77[14:35:53] <Mat2ch> Eddi|zuHause: What is your problem with inventory items?
L78[14:43:22] <Eddi|zuHause> i can put them there, but i don't know what to do with them.
L79[14:53:13] <Eddi|zuHause> i think i need to use the KIS inventory for what i try to do....
L80[14:55:37] <Eddi|zuHause> yeah, that seems to work, i can place it, and return it into inventory from there...
L81[15:38:14] <Eddi|zuHause> 5800 dv is probably cutting it close for a mun landing and return?
L82[15:40:34] <Mat2ch> with launch vehicle?
L83[15:40:51] <Eddi|zuHause> from launch pad, yes
L84[15:41:28] <Mat2ch> very very very close.
L85[15:41:43] <Mat2ch> 3300 + 860 + 310 + 580. That's just for landing.
L86[15:42:18] <Mat2ch> So 5050 just for getting there.
L87[15:42:41] <Mat2ch> It could be enough if you get a very efficient launch and landing
L88[15:48:57] <Eddi|zuHause> yeah, i need to find a place for more fuel.
L89[15:50:10] <Eddi|zuHause> next question... where do i put the landing gear...
L90[15:53:19] <Mat2ch> Do you have crew on board?
L91[15:53:31] <Mat2ch> Because on return you can drop everything you don't need anymore.
L92[15:53:38] <Mat2ch> Batteries, solar panels, landing gear :D
L93[15:55:18] <Eddi|zuHause> yes. i already have all the science stuff behind a decoupler
L94[15:56:28] <Eddi|zuHause> but that's an awkward place for putting the landing gear
L95[16:05:35] <Eddi|zuHause> something tells me this is all going horribly wrong
L96[16:17:31] <Eddi|zuHause> and there my science instruments break off during ascent :p
L97[16:20:30] ⇨ Joins: Tank2333 (~Tank2333@p5ddaa16b.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)
L98[16:28:03] <Eddi|zuHause> i read something about a setting that resets (stock) inventory to default every time. where is that?
L99[16:30:35] <Eddi|zuHause> and i will never understand how to make a rocket not flip on launch...
L100[16:52:31] <Eddi|zuHause> hm... this ascent profile might have been slightly too low...
L101[17:33:53] <Mat2ch> uh, switch on SAS, launch the rocket, when on 100 m/s tilt slightly over, let SAS do the rest. Correct only slightly and not too much, don't go over the green prograde marker in the navball
L102[17:34:12] <Mat2ch> try to be at at least 20° or even far below when going over 10 km
L103[17:34:21] <Mat2ch> reduce thrust if necessary
L104[17:34:26] <Mat2ch> and if that doesn't help: Add fins.
L105[17:35:23] <Mat2ch> (to the back of the rocket! :P )
L106[17:59:48] <Eddi|zuHause> i tweak-scaled my fins, now it works
L107[18:00:07] <Eddi|zuHause> i still might be too short on dv, though
L108[18:00:26] <Eddi|zuHause> and i need to get the angle right to land at the location i want...
L109[18:05:02] <Mat2ch> remember: Last minute burns are much more efficient.
L110[18:05:10] <Mat2ch> more like last second burns. ;)

L113[18:28:38] <Eddi|zuHause> that "last second" burn might need a higher TWR :p

L129[20:54:51] <Eddi|zuHause> dunno what's up with crew assignment... i carefully select tourists for the mission, and if you blink it reset to the original
L130[21:08:13] <Eddi|zuHause> also, cursed rocket equation! adding more fuel doesn't actually add much more dv
L131[21:09:16] <Mat2ch> If you add fuel, try adding it to the top stage ;)
L132[21:09:37] <Mat2ch> or to the middle one and then add boosters to the main stage.
L133[21:10:11] <raptop> Distribute fuel so that stages with higher Isp have equal or larger mass ratios than stages with lower Isp
L134[21:10:42] <raptop> Unfun fact: optimizing for Δv like this often leaves you with stages with unsufficient TWR to complete the mission
L135[21:18:50] <Eddi|zuHause> i have added a middle stage
L136[21:18:59] <Eddi|zuHause> but that adds another heavy engine
L137[21:19:15] <Mat2ch> are you limited by size or money?
L138[21:19:54] <Eddi|zuHause> well, i'm not exactly swimming in money, but it should have a comfortabile margin, and only parts limit, which i'm not close
L139[21:20:19] <Mat2ch> Usually for a Mun mission I do three stages.
L140[21:20:47] <Mat2ch> One lift stage, which gets me almost into orbit, one transfer stage to get me into orbit and to Mun and then the landing and return stage.
L141[21:21:17] <Mat2ch> for Mun return, if done correctly, you don't even need a heat shield and if you bring one, you can put the slider waaaayyyyy down (and save weight)
L142[21:22:08] <Eddi|zuHause> i returned from mun orbit without heatshield already. then i tried one but the slider makes little difference. so i left it out again
