[00:06:14] Anyway, consider the X-20 or МиГ-105? [00:18:04] i'm using 'shuttle' in the loosest terms possible [00:26:32] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptor' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [00:26:33] basically just something that can fly through the atmosphere with wings after re-entry rather than plummet down.

How can I enable this function? [07:36:51] and I dont understand the function of fl c-1000 [07:39:35] five hours, nice [08:06:08] estorado: enable advanced tweakables in the options [08:07:21] thank you [09:37:26] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Deddly' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [10:15:15] haha live in 26 hours [10:15:28] i guess the 90% chance was not enough [10:50:10] maybe someone crucial slept in late [10:51:00] hm i put my space plane on top of a rocket but now the rocket tips shortly after launching [10:56:43] large fins at the base? [11:01:30] i've been adding them lol [11:04:59] fairing [11:05:15] could help somewhat, but it has a drag too [11:23:36] taking off at 66% seems to have done it [11:24:36] oh, lost control at 30 km, probably cause i'm playing too casually [11:25:34] if you dont lose control at 15 km, you should be able to all the way up [11:28:48] yeah it was on staging [11:29:04] let me try again [12:19:06] Althego: :( [12:19:10] I was looking forward to this [12:20:17] no boom today, my love is gone away, the rocket stands forlorn a symbol of the dawn [12:38:32] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Deddly' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [13:57:08] Last message repeated 1 time(s). [13:57:08] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+v eriophora' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [16:22:12] i just realized what the perfect name for the band playing the song with the above lyrics. kerman's hermits :) [17:04:49] see, my shuttle is really just a tourist transport shuttle [17:05:02] unfortunately i need a bigger rocket to reach the mun with it [18:48:35] The game isn't launching from steam [18:51:19] omg, the red message is working [18:51:34] but unfortunately i dont have steam, so i cant help you with that [18:56:09] Can you launch KSP.exe directly? [18:56:55] It gives me an error sign when I click launch from steam [18:57:11] What kind of error? [18:57:22] perilous peril [18:57:41] More of a crash than an error [18:58:36] Directly as in going to the folder and double clicking on the KSP executable. [18:58:40] KSP writes a log [18:58:57] you could copy the last few lines to a paste website, like pastebin and show us [18:58:58] If not, try verifying the integrity? [18:59:39] I know at one point my download got corrupted, and I got a noninformative error w/ mono [19:07:44] Action: UmbralRaptor wonders if guest was eaten by a kraken [19:10:04] failing despite all the effort [19:10:33] shaka, when the walls fell [19:12:10] gah [20:20:08] for some reason I had a dream you were talking about old Top Gear episodes in here [20:35:29] why would anyone launch a ame from steam? [20:35:41] why would anyone have steam running at all? [20:36:04] it does not help, it is just a spyware [20:36:05] to keep the playing time counter ticking [20:36:10] lol [20:39:47] i had friends who did this [20:39:56] for running time in games [20:46:20] yeah, also to advertise that you're playing x game [20:46:48] Action: X advertises this intrinsically [20:47:51] discord scans the process list for known games. I'm not sure if I like that feature [20:48:46] You are afraid that discord will.... report on your illegal processes? [20:59:52] eg: using Firefox on the good bird website? [21:05:52] X: it's an irrational fear ;) [21:06:15] I don't really like discord, anyway [22:34:05] packbart: You could always just use the desktop version [22:34:27] Then nobody will know when you're playing one of those asian dating games on steam :P [22:37:37] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/186186471202357249/668090047374819328/DSC_3845.JPG [22:37:39] friend let me borrow his telescope [22:39:17] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+v eriophora' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [22:52:06] nate: I used the Linux desktop version. I might set up a discord-IRC-gateway to use with irssi ;) [23:16:23] what is more efficient - adjusting my normal/anti-normal trajectory while very close to my target orbit, or when my current orbit is much smaller than the target orbit? [23:22:10] it's more efficient at lower orbital velocity, so the "larger" orbit should cost you less dV [23:22:39] or maybe not. depends on where your AN/DN nodes are [23:24:31] it might even be mor efficient to get into a very large orbit first (or at least push the AN or DN far out) to adjust the plane [23:32:49] low speed is true. [23:32:59] Ap of highly elliptic orbit. [23:33:49] It even pays to make the inclination worse there to get AN/DN closer and turn to 0 then. [23:40:03] ok [23:40:50] Or launch when (slightly before) you're in the desired orbital plane and try to get into that plane. [23:42:06] Instead of going to high speed orbit first and then adjust the plane.
