[05:43:36] FWIW, they work fine for me on Kerbin and Eve [05:43:52] how nice [05:44:36] I really wanted to zip around with 'em, they're brilliant [05:52:44] i have to wait for the stock prop [05:52:58] my latest attempt to make a working prop failed again [05:53:25] only the first attempt worked an it was bulky and ugly, but worked on kerbin and eve. probably wouldnt have worked on duna [05:57:40] perhaps I bungled something else up... [05:59:11] Oh haha, I literally just started mashing the "Toggle engine" repeatedly, and they started working! [06:00:01] the "hit it with a hammer until it works" strategy [07:19:43] awww KSP crashed [07:20:43] quite rare lately [07:21:30] That just means you're not trying hard enough. [07:22:38] hehe [07:22:46] but i am not a tester [07:22:53] there was a time when it crashed quite often [09:23:09] have anyone crashed ksp while crashing? [10:39:46] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [11:09:06] Rolf: one time... I had a ship with hundreds of parts and it blew up [11:09:25] The game back then was way worse with part counts, explosions, and everything that followed [11:09:31] lol yea [11:10:02] I made a silly rocket with hundred tiny rocket engines on tank and pilot module [11:10:23] it did fly but not very well. then game crashed when tank exploded and motors was floating [11:13:34] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [15:48:15] 70% chance of parker solar probe in less than 16 hours [15:48:38] Aye, thanks for the reminder! [16:05:51] i cant learn the new tanks, i have tolook at all of them to see which one is which [16:11:22] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/254984631512858634/477509229767294976/DSC_9426.JPG [16:11:40] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/254984631512858634/477509315461120020/DSC_9425.JPG [16:15:08] who is the old guy? he looks at the plane? what the helll is this, it is not possible it would fly [16:15:20] that's my uncle [16:27:24] Fluburtur: soooooo [16:27:26] did it fly? [16:27:32] yeah [16:27:44] it was a bit touchy so I need to reduce the controls a bit [16:31:51] Even further? [16:31:58] But otherwise flies fine? [17:58:37] there was a parker solar probe pre launch briefing [18:04:48] I just did a everyone ping on a discord server with more than 500 users [18:05:01] luckily I am admin so I can justify this as a spring cleaning [18:14:10] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/429717171002933269/477540093842948106/DSC_9418.MOV.Image_fixe001.png [18:15:02] nice [18:15:32] how fif you generate the volumetric clouds? :) [18:16:06] that looks like some serious distortion going on [18:19:48] because I took a screenshot of a tiny window [18:24:20] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/429717171002933269/477542713319882762/2014_0331_215147_004-1.m4v.Image_fixe001.png [18:37:06] I also had the propeller fly off the plane at one point and it wehn helicopter [18:37:06] very stable too [18:37:06] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/429717171002933269/477545913662046208/Sequence_01.Image_fixe001.png [18:37:38] is that the prop separating? [18:37:40] so kerbal [18:37:45] yeah [18:38:59] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/254984631512858634/477509315461120020/DSC_9425.JPG [18:39:34] must be an emergency detach system :) [18:44:39] I also got a ride in his WWII Jeep [18:44:50] with windshieled lowered and no seatbelts [18:46:40] where we are going we dont need any seatbelt [18:46:41] s [18:48:12] now that I have maidened my plane and I know it flies well I could maybe paint it [18:48:18] that's an idea [18:49:14] uh crap Aplayer left [18:49:17] it is a tried design ?) [18:49:21] I needed to ask him something [18:49:32] yeah I will do the paint job the real ones had [18:50:41] so no surprise there it would flt [18:50:42] y [18:50:49] http://www.modelisme-racer.fr/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Modele-mag-VG-33.jpg [18:51:01] yeah, even with the current weight it feels very light and has plenty of power [18:51:10] so adding some paint wouldn't hirt [19:13:51] https://youtu.be/pKn6vgHtcVw [19:13:52] YouTube - 3D printed Arsenal VG-33 maiden flight [19:15:50] remember, demons can be an offensive term, refer to them as mortally challenged [19:15:58] thes new doom 2 is funny [19:18:20] "Man, that Cacodemon gave me so many chuckles; i died." [19:18:46] but i was never really into fps, except for the original doom [19:19:44] Yea, but what about final final doom? [19:20:19] no final final as long as there is money in it :) [19:22:16] Final Final Doom: Epilogue Part 3 Platinum Edition Director's Cut Theatrical Ultraviolent Edition [19:26:36] hehe somebody made a cage for the kraken [19:27:19] It seems like they... [19:27:21] Got Kraken. [19:27:29] yeaaah [19:27:31] https://i.redd.it/7jr9v3o93se11.jpg [19:27:55] hah devnotes already [19:28:25] i keep interrupting the parker probe (why not peter parker probe, would be funnier) pre launch briefing [19:29:50] Sorry, I can only observe the parker probe briefing at an average duty cycle of 50% [19:31:01] https://78.media.tumblr.com/6887c45f0f612f0f0a1fe992e918a348/tumblr_inline_pd98d6G3AA1rr2wit_500.jpg [19:31:04] hehe [19:31:21] maybe it is not such a good idea to send anything kerbal that close to the sun [19:32:34] I mean, it's about time we send some real experts to that burny boi in the air. [19:32:56] hmm, increased pixel density. maybe i am going to be ale to red the text on the lander can [19:35:18] hmm, this is like wker r planes [19:35:27] https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/177302-14-kerbal-wind-tunnel-101/ [19:35:30] for [19:37:26] and i was s now that we need a working wind tunnel, since ksc has one [19:40:20] Althego Mat2ch have you watched the video of the plane [19:40:32] n [19:40:44] actually that video could be nicer but my uncle has no experience filming planes and it was quite windy today [19:41:00] batt. [19:44:19] i swear these new batteries at worse [19:44:45] andthis isdedto [19:46:04] prop fail is funny [19:57:16] Althego: :D [19:57:36] I guess there are not many 3d printed planes out there [20:17:33] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [20:57:42] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptor' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [21:20:00] ok, my ssto has 3.8k dV in LKO [21:23:52] i think this is going to be fun [21:24:11] so where do you want to go with that? [21:25:08] newspaper tells me i should watch the perseids this weekend [21:26:32] i have no idea, i've only been able to create space planes capable of getting in to orbit and have 500-1500 dV left [21:26:45] so i'm stoked to have something with much, much more range [21:26:55] i've never actually reached space with a plane [21:27:10] guess duna could be fun although i have no idea how nerva is going to behave on duna [21:27:48] i've also never been to another body outside kerbin soi [21:28:17] i've sent a probe to eve intercept once, but never played long enough for it to arrive [21:28:52] ooh man, you have the whole game ahead of you! [21:29:47] yes, but i always get distracted by some local mission, and ultimately annoyed [21:30:36] and then when i want to pick up the game again, another major version came out and none of the mods work [21:30:48] and i usually have to start over [22:16:47] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [22:27:20] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+v eriophora' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [22:49:39] if I make a horten 229 at 1/7 scale it would be 2.4 meters in wingspan [22:55:36] my scales are usually 1:87 [22:58:48] wasn't the pilot of the Ho-229 situated in a prone position? [22:58:57] something about being better able to withstand g-forces that way [23:03:42] the body handles g-forces differently depending on direction [23:04:32] like during airplane maneuvers, g-forces are usually towards your legs, wheras things like rocket starts g-forces are towards your back [23:10:32] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lippisch_P.13a [23:10:44] the HO229 had a regular cockpit [23:10:55] what you are talking about is a sort of weird parasite fighter [23:13:21] ah, another Horten plane: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horten_H.IV [23:13:40] the the horten dudes made gliders at first [23:13:48] and experimented a lot on flying wings [23:14:02] dutifully copied by the USA post-paperclip, I see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northrop_XP-79 [23:14:16] just liekt his dude that made some of the most wonky airplanes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Lippisch [23:43:44] Hi [23:44:07] Lo [23:44:30] My ore extraction is 0.043 ore per sec with a thermal efficiency of 0.7% is this normal? [23:45:54] one thing i also never reached in the game: ore extraction [23:46:17] this one is for contract [23:53:00] why is my ore extraction so slow?
