[01:42:17] yeah [01:42:59] 8.77 Gm, 2° beam [01:43:06] There are narrower beams, though. [01:43:10] that should cover some distance [01:43:20] but with enough accuracy should work [01:43:53] Accuracy is automatic. [01:45:05] You can select to point to the active vessle, a planet/moon etc. [01:45:16] ah, cool [01:45:45] weird, now ksp wont even launch after i downloaded 1.3.1 sits at the preparing to launch in steam [01:45:49] maybe need a reboot to clear [01:46:06] I launch the x86_64 binary directly [01:50:21] that fixed it [02:08:01] where is this "Recommended mods: Please download all the mods that RO and RP-0 recommend (it's a tab on CKAN). That will get you the full experience" tab/ [02:08:04] ? [02:14:42] Shadow404: The recommendations show when you press commit or so. [02:16:08] or apply, which isn't the final confirmation. [02:16:31] ah, ok [02:16:42] ive been going by https://github.com/KSP-RO/RP-0/wiki/Tutorial:-Getting-Started [02:23:57] gn [08:22:24] https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DzdtKekUYAADsuU.jpg:large [08:25:49] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqMs9WsJg2k hehehe [08:25:55] Pinky And The Brain Theme - Postmodern Jukebox (ft. Emily Goglia, Rob Paulsen, Maurice LaMarche) [09:52:35] Althego: nice! [09:56:34] are those the original voice actors? [09:56:37] yes [10:00:56] yeeeeesssss [10:01:02] Althego: a masterpiece! [10:01:42] dont tell taht to me [10:01:45] i didnt make it [10:03:06] i still have 4 genolution implants (ca-1 and ca-2) on sale in dodixie, go buy them [11:54:35] wasnt it von spitz? [13:59:55] hehe "followers of the church of elon" [16:14:11] so, the idea of building a large space station from just an Orbital Workshop docked to an asteroid and some starter resources basically works. It just takes huge amounts of ore [16:14:38] I need to find a 3+ kiloton roid to make 100k MaterialKits [16:15:34] which then turn into 230 tons of space station [16:18:09] 130 tons are already in the kit. that feels weird [19:55:10] Action: darsie built a Mars rocket, but now I have to figure out when to launch it, cause the fuel would evaporate if I waited in orbit. [19:59:59] Darsie don't have anything like radiator or chiller panels? [20:00:33] hmm. no [20:00:37] just watched Scott's vid on the proposed moon mission... ouch, 60t craft if going to use a 'gateway' station there? [20:00:59] my craft is 39 t. [20:01:04] yes, too heavy [20:01:10] at least the single stage version [20:01:15] for a relay to Mars. [20:01:32] darsie you could try out kerbal alarmclock.. [20:02:27] I have that. [20:02:45] KCT uses it. [20:02:49] so.. high elliptical orbit would cut down on delta-v needed to get to the station, sure but... puts a bit cost on surface missions [20:03:02] ok [20:03:37] Action: darsie does a test launch. [20:11:09] ok now I really wanna do those ksp videos been meaning to work on... [20:11:43] although.. scott did RO, and now I'm wondering if its worth doing stock still or switching to RO and testing things out. [20:12:10] I'd play stock before RO. [20:12:20] Maybe a few mods. [20:12:20] stock is not really realistic [20:12:32] It's a game. [20:12:38] sizes, delta v requirements, isps are completely different than reality [20:17:12] I know stock is a lot smaller, RO makes it a very different game simply because of the scale [20:18:28] its just.. I searched KSP videos on youtube, noticed quite a lot of them don't even have views. Makes me wonder sometimes if its worth it [20:20:37] hehe mine dont have views either [20:20:56] I've a few already up, but set private... [20:23:33] huh... 3 and 4 years ago, to videos I did still private. And one, I streamed for an hour from a year ago... [21:31:08] "this time it aint gonna work, because richard kerman is unconscious, he hasnt moved for 82 years" :) [21:31:18] normally that is what we call dead [21:36:09] he's dead, Jim [21:38:16] (in a matt lowne video) [21:48:57] blep? [21:49:02] James.. not Jim [21:50:04] eh... well he's James... but anyways. [21:52:25] i've never understood this american habit of nicknames [21:52:36] William -> Bill, James -> Jim... ? [21:52:51] Richard -> Dick? [21:52:54] what? why? [21:55:26] jim, jimmy... jimmie... will, william, willy... [21:55:32] willie... [22:55:29] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/186186669324500993/546463561417752576/DSC_0527.JPG [22:55:29] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/186186669324500993/546464264890613763/DSC_0455.JPG [23:20:35] Sons and daughters of Kerbin: You wanna know how I got these scars? [23:21:28] Is there a booster trick? [23:21:41] (like the pencil trick) [23:22:28] Well, one day, some one said to me, "Hey, let's mine the Moon for helium-3". [23:24:36] Now you have two problems [23:25:04] So they started sobbing when I told them that helium-3 fusion isn't really a thing, and I wanted to cheer them up. So I took took my knife like THIS and made a new smile and asked them: "Why. So. SERIOUS?" [23:28:21] Action: Scolar_Visari grumbles at the headlines, "NASA heading back to Moon soon, and this time to stay". [23:30:46] That's not so much as counting one's chickens before they hatch but counting one's chickens before chordates come into being. [23:31:14] Action: UmbralRaptop shouts angrily in LRO, LCROSS, LADEE, and GRAIL [23:32:10] UmbralRaptop: Well, the articles were referring to new manned missions. Mind you, the proposals for the missions' architectures are due next month. [23:32:58] Ah. Well, I guess we'll see with those. [23:33:15] Yeah, I can totally pull out a design reference architecture in a couple of months. It'll be written on the backs of napkins, of course. [23:35:28] "As you can see on slide number 2, our concept depends on propellant depots in Low Earth and Low Lunar Orbit. Keep in mind that this crayon drawing is merely a pre-visualization and the actual tanker will be to scale with the stick figure seen in the upper left hand corner after our exploratory budget is approved." [23:36:47] Action: Scolar_Visari severely doubts that the recent announcement will amount to anything. [23:38:22] Yay for space robots, at least [23:40:28] Action: Scolar_Visari warily eyes New Glenn and BFR/Starship [23:40:55] Also, I've worked on it and I think getting to Mars will require, like, six propellant tanker rendezvous for a Starship. [23:41:09] Why u no propellant depot!? [23:43:17] Something something lunar mining? [23:43:49] Lunar volatiles mining be more difficult than Mars volatiles mining. [23:44:30] At least that precious, precious water on Mars doesn't hide. [23:49:33] well, yes [23:50:23] nuclear thermal mars hopper pls:( [23:51:05] What is the OBT parameter in the set orbit cheat menu? (There are 7 parameters instead of 6). [23:52:56] uh, pic? (not at a machine that runs KSP) [23:53:32] http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot135.png [23:55:24] I could see what it does. [23:56:45] Yeah. I'm not sure =\ [23:57:52] ok [23:58:26] Or I just ignore it. The others are what defines teh orbit, I think.
