[02:49:25] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o purpletarget|ktns' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [08:41:40] sometimes i just can't wrap my simple little mind around the fact that i do two retrograde burns to slow down... [08:41:47] and then i go faster than i did before [08:52:21] analogous to falling down a cliff. at the bottom you move faster [09:06:48] yeah and i guess you pick up more speed going from apoapsis to periapsis than you eliminate by slowing down at the periapsis, but it's still ridiculous. [09:06:56] i don't approve. [11:41:33] hey guys [11:41:50] heybye [11:43:04] hehe [13:03:31] How bad is upgrading to 1.8.1 and then going back with the same mission and ship to 1.7? [13:03:56] 1.7.3, I guess. [15:16:51] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Deddly' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [15:52:29] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUfOnwSLWxY [15:52:29] YouTube - A conversation with Rocket Lab's Peter Beck on recovering Electron [16:26:07] oh god [16:26:15] all this robotics stuff is too much [16:26:19] i shouldn't have bought that expansion [16:29:34] hehe [16:29:39] also steam sale is starting today [16:29:44] so you bought it too early or so ;P [16:30:08] i bought it at -50% [16:36:42] :) [16:37:03] And I really hope that there'll be a team building option for KSP 2. [16:37:12] I'm building my Jool expedition for month now [16:37:19] it's hard if you have to do everything alone [16:41:50] The Mun's south pole is a lethal pit: http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot88.png [16:48:58] lol [16:49:05] oh my god, it's full of stars [16:55:32] Yay, I jetpacked to orbit from The Mun's south pole. So I don't need the Mun's rotation. Either my jetpacking to orbit fu increased or the game changed. [16:56:01] that rotation is negligible anyway [16:56:21] Nah, it's close. I have 0.08 EVA fuel left. [16:56:26] hehe [16:56:34] Previously I failed to jetpack to orbit at higher latitudes. [16:57:55] So I have 9.6 m/s left. [16:58:12] That's about the equatorial speed. [16:58:37] Oh, I didn't plant a flag ... [17:06:31] 0.14 EVA left. [17:08:36] Mat2ch: What does this building involve? [17:10:02] darsie: a huge atomic pusher, a lab that will stay somewhere in Jools orbit, a miner to refuel, a space plane, a landing stage with >4 k dV, some sats for scanning for ore [17:10:14] maybe some sats to send back if the mission requires so [17:10:45] also I had all of this already done in previous versions, but I tend to delete those old craft files... [17:10:54] well, not all, but most of it [17:11:13] Mat2ch: You could have team mates build parts and exchange hte ship files. [17:14:02] You would have to fly them yourself, though. [18:22:52] darsie: I think it would be fun to build some parts together with others [18:23:06] sometimes I need to discuss ideas and problems to find a solution [18:23:15] making space planes is hard [18:23:29] making them efficient and with a small ressource converter on board even harder [18:45:47] I made a Mars glider lander. [18:46:53] I'm a Steam n00b. How can I buy a steam key for someone who I don't have on my "friends" list? [18:49:20] I'm not sure if that's possible [18:49:32] well, you can buy it as gift and send it via email [18:49:39] but I guess you want a key? [18:50:10] I wanted a key really, but email would do [18:51:47] I can't see how to do that [18:52:23] you can buy as a gift [18:52:32] not sure if the option "send as mail" exists anymore :/ [18:52:39] but you can use a key store [18:52:42] then you'll get a key [18:52:49] When I click that button it only gives me a list of friends ... [18:53:07] sadly https://isthereanydeal.com/ seems dead... [18:54:18] I suppose I could get it on GOG [19:21:45] there's also green man gaming or so [19:22:05] afaik they're one of the good guys key dealers. Not like G2A [19:23:06] Oh yeah - I forgot you can buy Steam keys from other sources [19:23:51] Thanks for the tip [19:27:15] Wow, KSP is even cheaper on that site, Mat2ch [19:27:22] 77% off [19:33:55] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o raptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [19:34:04] join #KSPUnofficial [19:34:07] er [19:34:39] Anyway, is asking that person their steam ID useful for friending them for sending the game? [19:35:12] Trying to do that, it's laborious but we're getting there :) [22:31:13] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net
