[00:34:03] Action: darsie docked in <10 minutes from the launch pad to orbit. [00:36:00] 8:55, actually. [00:38:52] :P [00:38:59] :) [00:39:35] I never timed mine.. usually its good as long as I don't have to hassle with orbit phase matching while already circularized [00:39:37] https://i.ibb.co/khZDTsb/screenshot347.png [00:40:06] That's a few minutes after docking, when the sun came out. I docked in the dark. [00:40:32] MET resets to kerbal time? [00:40:47] huh? [00:41:05] You can switch between MET and UT. [00:41:42] By clicking on MET or UT. [00:41:54] ya I know [00:42:10] I used UT to time my launch. MET stays at 0 on the pad. [00:42:21] just in the past, it would hang out, but when I clicked it to check things, it would go into a more hidden state [00:45:53] Interestingly, similarly fast docking could happen irl. 15-20 minutes or so. [00:46:23] "It works in KSP." :) [00:47:21] theoretically, you can. practicality, its good to at least have something of a breather time to sort out the ship, make sure things are running ok. Give crew a rest bit.. [00:48:55] Who says there'll be crew? :) [00:49:39] still need to sort the ship out, make sure not going to end up with a cloud of debris following you [00:49:54] hm+ [00:49:57] hm? [00:50:38] still have systems to check out, so on. Just depends [00:50:48] unless you chucking an inert rock at things [00:51:38] Nobody's checking out the F9 booster from launch to landing on the barge. Well, ppl may check, but it's fully automatic. [00:52:49] its also not docking [00:53:09] boost something up, spit it out. Just enough going on to get back, land if we are lucky [00:53:20] We'll do that automatically, too, in 20 years. [00:53:45] Dragon can dock automatically. [00:54:14] Maybe it'll happen in 2 years. [00:55:05] It won't be in 20 minutes. That will take a while, till we're confident it'll work safely. [00:56:21] With a new dock that's tuned for quick docking. [01:02:25] This fuel station ... it automatically filled up my tank. [01:03:50] heh.. full service [01:06:10] It converts ore to fuel. The stations tanks are full, so when I dock, the ship gets refuelled. [01:06:32] I didn't want that much fuel, though. Now I might be to heavy to land safely. [01:07:33] oops [01:09:33] Action: darsie burns some fuel ... [01:14:10] heh go for a joyride [01:18:25] Splashdown at the KSC beach :) [01:22:34] think kerbals do beach parties? [01:29:51] sure [01:32:49] heh [01:33:02] knowing them, be some crazy party, a bit of a mess though [02:38:25] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [03:22:02] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Althego' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [03:30:16] howd [03:30:22] howdy* [03:32:12] well well, it seems amazon expanded the capacity in europe [03:32:35] can start a few instances in a placement group again [03:32:37] how does this have to do with ksp [03:33:04] it doesnt. but i am happy the cluster could start up [03:33:34] :| [03:35:32] so where is the scott video? :) [03:35:49] maybe in a few hours [03:35:59] have you ever had a dream that- you do- you- you do- you want- do- you do- you want- you- want- you- you want to do so much you can do anything? [03:36:05] hehe [03:37:10] Which Scott video [03:37:18] the video about the landing video :) [03:37:22] His last upload was 2 days ago [03:37:27] exactly [03:37:33] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvvzvXb2Awc [03:37:46] that is the video about the live landing [03:38:12] yes [03:38:31] but now he has to make one about the landing vide [03:38:59] has ingenuity took flight yet? [03:39:20] no, they barely started out with checking the rover. in 1-2 months [03:39:53] MoNtHs?! [03:40:22] one command session per sol [03:40:45] the planning alone is a full work day for each one [03:40:48] or even more [03:40:49] wow [03:40:59] https://i.ytimg.com/an_webp/Mqao_NvDfyc/mqdefault_6s.webp?du=3000&sqp=CJvo0YEG&rs=AOn4CLCVw0apI7BU8JWMCd1YO2EKC1aTKg cursed image [03:41:04] oops [03:41:13] wrong image [03:42:20] no harm [03:43:13] It was supposed to be a Minecraft armor meme but it's a kerbal [03:43:25] Here's some KSP Memes that I found https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlHkHA380jI [03:53:51] me when the [03:57:58] https://i1.wp.com/continuingmissionsta.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/end-transmission.jpg?resize=299%2C219&ssl=1 [03:58:20] hehe while i was searching for the image it really became end of transmission [04:03:37] Nice image [04:03:54] Unfortunately, we're in the mirror universe [04:05:09] but but zefram cochrane hasnt even built the ship yet [04:23:40] me when the [04:24:06] that wasthe last line we got [04:24:15] what [04:24:37] some half an hour ago [04:24:51] what is the last line [04:24:59] the last message [04:25:05] oj [04:25:08] Oh* [04:25:51] hey someone stole my name butmade it backwards [04:26:35] [thonk] [04:27:02] I have news for you about hostmasks [04:27:16] ok [04:30:01] what is the news [04:31:34] *end transmission* [04:31:56] they died [04:33:51] i guess they don't [04:35:40] 23:23:23 -!- PSKnetsirT [webchat@c-24-16-251-13.hsd1.wa.comcast.net] has joined #KSPOfficial [04:35:43] 23:24:15 -!- TristenKSP [webchat@c-24-16-251-13.hsd1.wa.comcast.net] has joined #KSPOfficial [04:35:53] ie: we can tell when someone is connected twice [04:36:21] technically it could be a house behind a router, but unlikely [04:42:26] yeah [04:45:57] what is a house behind a router [04:47:29] housea: building where people live. it wouldnt be strange for a family home to have a single internet connection, with multiple people connecting through that same ip [06:50:47] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptor' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [07:03:37] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [10:11:02] w00t. They asked for a TFR for today without having done a static fire test?! [10:11:53] I mean, yeah, wednesday could be possible if they have a successful static fire today, but a flight?! [10:18:58] hey hey [10:20:02] am i able to play a savegame from a modded 1.8.1 version into a stock 1.11.1? [10:22:55] Depends on the mods used. [10:23:19] If you only used viewing mods like KER then it might be fine [10:23:36] if you used mods with additional parts in it, then it wont work [10:24:15] but your save file is in a text format so you could go in and try to delete everything from the mods by hand. Though this can be very tedious depending on the save [10:27:08] ok ty [13:49:00] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+v phroa' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [13:49:13] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Althego' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [17:11:00] so there was no static fire yet [18:25:05] nope [18:25:14] and today the road isn't even closed yet [18:25:18] so maybe tomorrow? [18:42:34] heh there [18:44:08] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaEMSKzqGAg [18:45:13] uh oh thunderf00t contines with spacex [18:49:21] for some reason he seems to hate SpaceX [18:49:36] and then makes fun of the not powered landing, which was a wish by NASA, not SpaceX [18:49:53] wait a sec, the dragon v2 can hover even today. they just dont land it propulsively because of administrative rasons [18:50:06] raisins [18:50:23] if anything lands on mars it is going to be propulsively. just as today [18:51:45] i thought of inflation. then i checked, and it is basically negligible [18:56:30] and just as i cant refute the reusability not profitable claims in the first video, i cant refute these in the second either [18:58:39] on the other hand we know the shuttle required a ot of work to prepare for flight, so they must have gotten some profit out of reusability if they are better than then shuttle, and the flacon 9 is a lot simpler [18:59:48] also he didnt mention that the dc-1 exploded too [19:00:11] because of a landing leg issue [19:01:27] you mean the Douglas DC-1? [19:01:31] that [19:01:42] that was his example of hey rockets landed more than 20 years ago [19:01:54] That's a plane? [19:01:58] no, a rocket [19:02:11] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_DC-1 [19:02:13] :D [19:02:16] at least i think it was dc.1 [19:02:31] dc-x [19:02:33] whatever [19:02:40] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kk-gGtC7xZ4 [19:02:52] kinda weird to see rl-10s used at ground level [19:02:54] and then he bashed spacex about a prototype exploding [19:03:25] how -bout he go bash P&W instead [19:03:36] so these things are biased. just when the first explosion happened he didnt know about the header tanks. taht was biased too [19:03:46] but the numbers, i cant refute the reusability numbers [19:04:47] also i dont know what costs so much in sending humans to space [19:05:08] ok, you have to have training, maybe increased safety, so more work [19:05:20] but all that cant possibly make it that much more expensive [19:10:42] compared to cargo dragon, or launching a sat? [19:11:13] whichever you would like [19:27:08] at least the road si closed [19:28:41] and there is the new scott video i waited for [19:28:53] about 20 minutes ago [19:29:09] at least i launched a retrograde probe [20:56:53] is it right that in 1.11 the time warp limits have changed? [21:01:42] some recent patch, yeah [21:02:57] which patch? [21:06:57] I hadn't noticed, and thought that the last big changes were circa 1.0 [21:07:44] i can set time warp to 100'000x in a 80km orbit [21:07:56] dont like it
