[00:14:06] Boyajian's star: still \_()_/ https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/aaa413#new_tab [00:22:59] is that the one where everyone went "it's an alien megastructure!!"? [00:28:28] That be Tabby's star [00:28:43] that sounds familiar [00:29:07] oh wait... its same star so ya.. [00:29:10] ugh two namse for it [00:29:35] though they figured it was stellar debris that was in the way? [00:37:43] two names, a first name and a last name, i suppose :p [00:40:13] Basically. Because Tabitha Boyajian. [01:43:17] ah got ya [02:11:20] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+v eriophora' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [04:53:48] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlyuSwRSVHU - yikes, the Heavy is LOUD. Based on how long you hear it. [12:13:32] What's the average time for a Duna transit + waiting for the window back + transit back to Kerbin? [12:14:42] i think there was window calculator [12:15:16] cheers [12:26:53] the dv map in the topic should have some rough numbers [12:27:36] 2y... [12:27:37] good god [12:27:41] i need to redesign my ships [12:28:10] hehe [12:29:17] are there people who play the game in "real time"? (never using time warp) [12:29:24] hehe [12:29:29] i think there was somebody doing that [12:29:35] kept running some old version [12:32:15] game complains at start that KJR mod is broken, and a few others are outdated [12:32:32] i still don't know if FAR still works [12:36:21] game still impossibly slow [12:37:35] maybe it's one of the broken mods? [12:45:14] takes about 15 seconds of real time to calculate 1 second of game time... [12:45:42] it wasn't like that last time i played (1.3.1 i think) [13:05:06] getting a lot of: "Field '.ModuleJettison.JettisonTransform' not found" [13:06:28] and lots of time spent in momo_mempool_alloc0 [13:08:23] that error does seem to come from FAR [13:08:41] at least that's the only reference to JettisonTransform that i can find [13:14:13] ok, after uninstalling FAR it's far better (still not "good", but not 15:1, more like 2:1 now) [13:14:41] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+v erio' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [13:15:30] i should stop trying to press space bar to pause the game :/ [13:22:32] uh [13:24:15] Eddi|zuHause: EU4 uses space to pause, I make a lot of mistakes when going back and forth between the two games [13:32:22] yes [13:32:54] ok, so which was the button to switch vessels in flight? [13:33:20] i absolutely hate that you cannot view/set keybindings in the game [13:34:42] [] [13:35:02] i probably remapped those [13:35:19] bird up [13:36:55] 🐦🆙 [13:37:18] U(  )W [13:41:44] & not turning that emoticon into emoji [13:44:51] Gotta put 2 years of life support in this darn ship... [13:45:55] suclearnub: does it being 2 kerbal years help? [13:46:31] Still pretty long... [13:46:58] The best ship interplanetary ship I can make has 3.3km/s of dV with that much life support stuff [13:55:46] aw man, and immediately i'm at the stage where i'm annoyed by the game again, sorry no KSP :/ [14:33:22] science fiction idea: space battles back-ported to the ocean using hovering warships and ground effect aircraft [14:34:12] a real space battle would be 3d not 2d [14:34:44] my friend at banggood sent me a free fpv transmitter [14:35:35] this means I will put FPV in the vg33 [14:35:40] which is still broke [14:35:58] or rather broken [14:36:00] you are broke :) [14:36:12] im not broke anymore, I have a job [14:36:49] and dont have free time [14:36:53] yeah [14:37:01] I have weekends, that's all [14:37:12] and I need to re-design the nose of the vg33 again [14:37:24] as well as make a new hatch to put the fpv crap in [15:00:18] Althego, so if you put on ocean under it, there is reason for it to be 2d but because of the hovering ships, not fully 2d [15:21:16] when it says "target at Xkm in Ymin, est burn 4s" in which direction is that burn assumed to be? [15:34:25] in the direction of the manuever marker on the navball, I presume? I dont think Ive seen that target info before, only estimated burn [15:34:26] Eddi: towards the maneuver marker on your navball. [15:48:07] there is no maneuver [15:48:14] it's some automatic calculation [15:48:14] and no spoon [15:48:16] i think by KER [15:48:40] what do kerbals eat? [15:49:16] space [15:49:28] snacks! [15:49:39] yes, snacks, but what are they [15:50:14] they are from Kerbin :) [15:50:45] Eddi|zuHause: https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/a7FakY1P/Iroquois%20Imperial%20Influence [15:51:07] My iroquois run is going really well [15:51:10] hehe [15:51:24] i was playing congo [15:51:36] it went well, until i had two coalition wars simultaneously [15:51:50] Note that I also control the northern bit of Japan (minus Ainu/Hokkaido) [15:51:51] because all the expansion possibilities i had were sunni countries [15:52:01] Empire of Mexico and Republic of Cuba are also mine [15:52:07] Eddi|zuHause: How big of a coalition? [15:52:14] ottomans big [15:52:34] at least there are no belgians [15:52:55] lo [15:52:56] ottomans (who have like 2x my army strength) plus a few smaller ones, and QQ (about equal) plus a few others [15:53:04] what is the problem with belgians [15:53:05] and both of them 1 army tech ahead [15:53:35] and my two allies Mali and Ethiopia somewhat behind in tech [15:53:59] and i have a few vassals who are always on the brink of rebellion [15:58:28] problem with coalition wars is a) you don't gain anything by winning, b) you must reach 50% warscore to even sign a somewhat not-losing peace, c) that peace will be too short to recover any sort of AE [16:00:41] https://78.media.tumblr.com/1d36a06dad28e1547b935f6bb34f9b22/tumblr_inline_olvpt3vowZ1s1eyan_540.jpg [16:01:20] how not to use a soap? [16:01:26] that is surely a situation where i go "hey, let's take out my phone in the hopes the photo will go viral" [16:01:31] this way water already soapy [16:01:42] then just go and roll in the puddle of soap water [16:01:48] lol [16:04:06] Althego: Belgians really messed up the Congolese at some point in history [16:04:33] TheKosmonaut: not like any other european power would have acted much different [16:05:07] Which is why I am playing Iroquois [16:05:15] But, I think I'm becoming the villain [16:05:30] I just entered an alliance w/ GB and am staging an invasion of France [16:06:05] mostly because I wanna cut them down a peg and maybe clear the ONE french province off of N. America [16:06:16] sounds roughly like my game as cherokee [16:07:31] that was before the new "reduce tech multiplier by developing a province to 37-ish" mechanic [16:10:20] that looks like some of my landings [16:10:28] https://youtu.be/QnJBMYC8ReA [16:11:48] I wouldn't trust a plane using RC plane turbines, those are not meant for human fligyht [16:11:54] they can have flamouts kinda easikly [16:12:12] ah this is the on that crashed [16:12:29] it has tiny engines [16:13:22] yeah those are made for big rc jets [16:14:32] also don't look at the comment, only expert air crash investigators that just don't care about the off-center thrust and crosswind [16:15:30] so why did it crash? [16:15:40] left engine had a flameout [16:15:49] oh i'm out of snacks, must reach the space station fast... [16:15:53] how is that a reason to crash, [16:16:01] hehe [16:16:04] combined with crosswind, it caused the plane to go to the right [16:16:31] and one of those engines alone clearly doesn't have enough bens to keep an airplane of this size in the air [16:17:12] obviously [16:17:20] also he went full deflection on aileros and rudders which caused to further lose airspeed, something he already didn't have much because he nearly stalled a few seconds before [16:17:42] but they are close enough to the center i wouldnt expect it to be uncontrollable to this extent [16:17:55] still off center [16:18:13] + crosswind [16:19:49] if he had more airspeed he would probable still control it but he didn't have enough airspeed for controls to be affective [16:20:03] that makes sense [16:20:10] it is very slow with that little thrust [16:20:19] so controls are not very good [16:20:50] when the engine went it he should have tried to land immediatly instead of gaining altitude [16:21:04] but he was already gaining altitude for attempting a go around when the engine quit [16:21:31] so I guess alnding in the soft wood shed was his best option by then [16:21:56] you don't have much time to react and analyse everything in that kind of situation, even less when you are already a hard landing [16:43:22] i suppose crash landing is an art form :p [16:43:39] and trolling is a art :) [16:49:19] ok... so what were the KAS/KIS keys for attaching/detaching again? [16:49:28] i should have kept that manual i suppose [17:12:43] ok, i have no clue what i did wrong now, it takes like a minute after switching to vessel before i get control over it [17:13:13] crew images just show up as noise [19:00:54] hmm dev notes [19:04:10] Althego: what do they say? [19:04:18] I stopped reading a few month ago... [19:04:30] new space suites [19:06:06] But only for the expansion, I guess [19:06:10] nio [19:06:21] weird [19:06:26] it seems 1.5 is mostly going to be bugfixes and graphical overhaul [19:09:44] HAAAAAA, nice name for a foorwear store - "The Boot Sector" [19:10:36] hehe [19:16:02] my friend told me the most savage insult yet [19:16:29] "I would be shocked if modern science qualified you as a human" [19:18:19] hehe [19:18:22] why [19:19:44] idk but we were both like "wow man that's hardcore" [19:21:21] & are you sure you *want* to be human? [19:21:32] not really [19:21:36] hehe [19:21:43] what do you want to be then [19:22:00] idk [19:22:13] pistol shrimp [19:22:33] sees like 2 dozen colors and has a built in weapon [19:22:49] I would be a dragon if I could because they are cool [19:23:12] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/466436709198856223/480092012939575337/kZRgVLBgkbYapEe775uU08c6iFeQHy-76G8onzQaeUQ.png [19:24:13] Althego: serious answer: ill defined, but something that transcends human weaknesses, and can directly explore space.
