[00:55:34] A scientists jetpacked up on Minmus, had an encounter with a Kerbal in orbit, switched over, jetpacked to Kerbin, aerobraked, boarded the station and jetpacked to the KSC sea and swam to the shore. [00:56:44] Landing was a rough without parachute, but survived. [01:23:54] Minimalistic jet: http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot32.png [01:25:24] 400 m/s ... [01:26:21] 450 m/s [01:29:05] 500 m/s [01:32:58] 564 m/s [01:36:46] Don't even need a gear if I start vertically :). [01:52:25] 600 m/s without gear [03:06:58] Action: darsie flies around Kerbin with a Juno VTOL. Getting closer to KSC. Landing will be interesting. [03:08:12] I always pitch it down to horizontal when I hear it flame out at ~17 km. [03:19:39] hmm, getting dark at KSC. Night landing ...

That's hard to imagine [09:13:53] and that is only the second stage :) [09:14:51] yes [09:14:55] that's so crazy [09:15:05] only slightly bigger than the saturn v [09:15:08] and here I am, writing long articles about passwords... [09:15:31] isnt the new glenn oir whatsitsname going to be bigger? [09:16:40] according to wiki, no [09:17:36] And not even close to the performance... [09:17:48] but the engines are bigger on it [09:18:14] The engines on the Saturn V were bigger, too, or? [09:19:04] yes [09:22:05] https://xkcd.com/2272/ hrhrhr [09:22:26] yes i had a chuckle [09:22:34] on the alt text [09:23:07] hrhr [09:24:44] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Deddly' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [11:59:00] Reminder: please do not lick Europa [12:00:40] might contain infectious bacteria? [12:01:47] This was prompted by the, discovery of salt on its surface [12:02:12] Note that there's also a lot of sulfuric acid [12:02:24] (blame Io) [12:37:12] 1337 [12:43:51] well, I guess the sulfuric acid would give off a nasty smell, so nobody would dare to lick [12:45:58] SA has a low vapor pressure at RT and thus does not smell. [13:09:19] Oh no! Hide the goats! [15:26:04] hehehe: space, the final frontier, these are the voyages of the Starship... that's already ts name [15:39:47] and another tf2 prop https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/631734503131316245/681812577323712538/DSC_3968.JPG [16:08:32] i don't remember this from Transport Fever 2 :p [16:09:23] hehe [16:49:45] Uh, the two Starship sections seem to be welded together and now it's going on a ride [16:49:49] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=220AeiF99fI [16:49:49] YouTube - LIVE Starship Rollout [16:50:24] autobots, transform and rollout [16:51:03] what are those thigns on the side? [16:51:07] where is it rolling to? [16:56:33] I have no idea [16:56:42] the things on the side could be something for the thrusters [16:56:49] or hydraulic for the flaps [16:57:08] and maybe they're rolling it to a test stand to test the pressure it can take? [16:57:24] also some people in the chat don't know how welding works... [17:01:19] Althego: ah, it rolled already from one of the stands to the other stand [17:01:31] that one has more ground clearance. Possibly the launch stand as well [17:01:51] and it looks like there are pipes going to that stand. Fuel maybe? [17:03:38] lol, deliver 4564 units of biowaste (for around 8M credits) [17:03:40] no way [17:04:42] Grind up a bunch of kerbals? [17:06:10] :D [17:06:23] that's why they are so green! [17:07:31] funny thing, we're not the only always complaining community. The hardcore rocketleague players aren't happy with Psyonix/Epic either... ;) [17:08:41] Wait, what are we complaining about? [17:08:58] Everything! [17:09:41] Action: UmbralRaptor attaches boosters to the complaints [17:09:52] and who pays for the fuel? [17:10:14] the users! [17:12:28] Fine, I'll use intake air powered drain valves [17:12:49] .oO( oh that crane. When I'm big I want to own one ) [17:12:53] that's abuse of power! [17:15:07] Mem total: 16411032 [17:15:21] i would settle for the crane tow car hybrid thing ron pratt drives in the videos [17:15:22] hm. no Deddly to thank, not even mostly [17:15:47] Action: packbart now has 16GB even though the BIOS said it would support only 8GB [17:16:18] it never ocurred to me to just try it ;) [17:17:18] \o/ [17:20:36] Althego: pic? [17:21:01] packbart: great thing :) [17:21:09] now you can install all the leaky mods! [17:21:57] Action: UmbralRaptor ponders misusing campus resources since I have access to a computer with 64 GiB and 40 cores [17:29:01] scott [17:32:24] almost on the stand [17:33:18] oh, the Astra rocket. That will be interessting [17:34:07] ah, moving the starship part is probably about the pressure testing, which is said to happen in the next 24 h [17:34:16] either it goes "boop" or it will fly! [17:43:58] Mat2ch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzx2MvslmI0 the thumbnail [17:53:18] not big enough crane! [17:53:36] it would be enough for me [18:13:29] I need a LTM 1350-6.1 at least!

[19:47:11] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [19:48:47] hola [19:48:50] 1.9.1? [19:48:52] cool [19:49:06] 2 weeks off computer and there is a new version [19:49:29] wait i didnt even notice [19:57:49] blink [19:58:13] blink, and you'll miss it [19:58:40] It's not in my store account [19:59:16] neither i mine [19:59:26] not seeing a forum announcement [19:59:34] so it is not there yet [19:59:50] usually each release is followed by a bugfix :) [20:21:20] looks like they fixed the bug that killed my vessel. [20:22:37] so where is this hidden 1.9.1? [20:23:07] ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [20:23:26] I'm tempted to revert the /topic [20:23:58] Action: darsie checks steam ... [20:25:03] no, wait, that was another update I meant. [20:25:06] Hm [20:25:20] there was a ksp ehanced editions update for consoles [20:25:22] 1.8.1 is the lastet I see on steam. [20:25:41] no 1.9 on steam? [20:25:43] that is strange since 1.9 was released soem time ago [20:25:55] yeah, like a week ago [20:27:44] http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/2020-02-25-212657_616x625_scrot.png [20:28:07] i always thought that the screen capture program called scrot had a funny name [20:29:42] deddly isn't around, so I can't ask him [20:29:46] wait a sec, does that mean there are people who read the topic? [20:29:49] not even i read it [20:30:06] :| [20:30:42] darsie: the latest version is never in that list [20:30:42] I do, partially. I even use the dv map links. [20:30:57] yes i use those too [20:31:00] but never read them [20:31:00] Can I get the latest if I bought on steam? [20:31:01] yeah, I've used it for that matter, too :D [20:31:04] kust click on the link [20:31:07] darsie: to get 1.9, you need to select "opt out of beta" [20:31:13] ic [20:31:16] only old versions are listed [20:31:43] I didn't like something in 1.8, so I'm not sure I like 1.9. [20:32:11] mostly nothing has changed, aside from fancier planets and parts [20:32:11] I think it was the slower graphics, maybe something else. Switched back to 1.7.3. [20:32:25] But now I have a faster GPU. [20:32:35] shouldnt matter [20:32:46] the fans not even spin up from idle for ksp [20:34:00] GTX 750 Ti [20:35:33] gtx 1070 [22:25:55] Ahh, yeah, another thing that bothered me was that aerodynamics changed and my tourist rocket didn't have enough lift to slow down and deploy chutes. [22:26:00] with 1.8
