[00:12:59] the first thing i did in cities skylines was download a mod that let me disable left turns [00:13:49] also, i generally hate roundabouts [00:16:10] my city has 2... and they are horrid. poorly setup mostly [00:18:15] figure simple 4 way stop. normal 2 lane roads. They pulled out the intersection and replaced it with the roundabout, but didn't expand the intersection any. [00:19:15] they're extremely common in britain and they're fantastic [00:19:25] cheap, simple and they keep traffic flowing [00:19:53] they're not even hard to drive around, i don't understand how people struggle [00:21:43] THis one is so tight it is like making a left turn [00:22:13] roundabouts are good for paradoxical reasons mostly [00:22:26] the harder you make it to drive, the more attention drivers have to pay to the road [00:22:32] and so you have fewer accidents [00:22:52] true, but there has been an increase of 10-20% in accidents at this one [00:23:07] yeah, I'm not too surprised [00:23:24] places like america do poorly with them because nobody's familiar with them [00:23:26] if people aren't familiar with them that's not too surprising [00:23:29] the other one, they expanded, and accidents have dropped off [00:25:16] Different states have different rules on how to handle roundabouts (also called rotaries here) -- there's one about two miles from the border between two states with different rules and there are a *lot* of accidents there.

[07:23:10] I believe they are randomized yeah [07:24:31] I just started my second career game and they seem different. Not a huge difference but definitely differnt [07:25:07] I actually found a place on minmus that had close to 16% which is 50% more than the max I had ever seen before [07:49:02] Hi [07:49:44] May I ask some questions in this chat? [07:50:57] did you just ask a question without permission? [07:51:29] well I don't know the rules for this chat [07:52:14] seems like it was fine though you didn't even get kicked [07:52:22] try another one [07:52:25] Thats nice. [07:52:59] I'm having trouble mining mun. reserves of ore on mun is too low [07:53:51] the overall percentage of ore 0.2% and I spot on most highlighted place [07:54:02] thats a problem.... [07:54:05] only 1.2% of ore there [07:54:26] mining the moon is terrible compared to mining minmus [07:54:51] oh then this is not just for me [07:55:18] I thought amounts of rescources are random [07:55:23] minmus mining is much much easier - especially getting the product to orbit part [07:55:43] I got this contract of mining ore from mun, amount of 2950 [07:55:59] I must cancel it [07:56:02] ore deposits are somewhat randomized from game to game but 1.2% isn't uncommon [07:56:05] I never took that one. There is supposidly some trick around it [07:56:22] you can easily mine 2950 ore at a 1.2% location [07:56:45] I've read that if you take the contract then mine ore. Then give any ore as credit it will count [07:57:24] overall amount 0.2%, and I spot most highlighted place but scanner says only 1.2% of ore there [07:57:33] idk if they've fixed that though [07:59:11] maybe too much mods made this [07:59:16] you're lucky to find anything over 3% really [07:59:19] I don't see the problem [08:01:05] need to sniff around every corner in that site [08:01:08] thx guys [08:01:39] this isn't like a percentage of your contract, this is a percentage of material extracted from the ground being ore, basically just an extraction speed modifier [08:02:06] your contract should last years so time shouldn't be an issue [08:03:10] yes, only I can find the right spot [08:08:59] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+v eriophora' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [08:24:45] opportunity reached 45 km. and getting close to sol 5000 [09:45:18] https://i.chzbgr.com/full/9116559616/hAEC2E579/ [09:50:08] Is China dropping hypergolic booster stages on random towns? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1wMn8g7lW8 [09:50:09] YouTube - What Happens To Discarded Rocket Boosters And Old Satellites?

[12:22:11] hi, APlayer [12:26:37] yo [12:29:43] So, what are you guys up to? [12:30:42] I want to build a rocket engine again [12:30:58] liquid? [12:31:00] IRL? [12:31:04] hybrid [12:31:19] that is not too hard [12:31:34] I want to power a plane with it [12:31:48] Uh-oh [12:31:50] it would have less sustain than an electric [12:32:24] "Hey, neighbour. Sorry for that explosion in your kitchen, I accidentally launched a rocket in there" [12:32:37] but the plane in question will be a me 163 [12:32:44] hehe [12:32:51] it has to be rocket powered then [12:33:38] Fluburtur: Unless it goes sub-orbital, I will not be satisfied with the end result :P [12:33:45] hehe [12:35:03] well [12:35:13] we will see how powerful I can make an engine [12:35:28] totally unrelated, does anyone here knows how to calculate nozzles? [12:35:36] measure its isp! [12:36:17] because the actual engine will be deep inside the plane and there will be a tube and a nozzle at the end [12:36:32] so im nut sure how that will work [12:36:37] Fluburtur: No idea how related this is to aerodynamics, but it might be. So I'd suggest to ask Ferram4 [12:37:04] You may find him over at #kspacademia [12:37:06] eh aerodynamics are already covered [12:37:14] id by german dudes in the 40s [12:37:15] I mean engine nozzles [12:37:30] They might be related to aerodynamics [12:37:48] If not, I am sure Ferram4 could direct you somewhere else [12:37:56] yeah I guess [12:38:03] yes the nozzle seems to be iportantfor optimal performanc [12:38:46] https://sketchboard.me/dARoOaseBldv#/ [12:39:40] lol [12:39:49] professional [12:39:59] yeah [12:40:05] several peoples drew on it too [14:44:29] https://twitter.com/betakuang/status/954343707746029570 [14:44:30] Å”ÙûÑÀH< https://t.co/fv3rmeibco [14:45:32] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBXV8lf1dcM&t=0s [14:45:32] YouTube - Longer hover test RC VTOL scale Harrier [14:54:06] Fluburtur: needs more stabilisation ;) [14:55:15] I installed the new tail ont he canadair [14:55:24] but it is heavier so I need to put more weight in the nose [15:04:05] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [17:44:08] Last message repeated 2 time(s).
