[00:00:02] <KrazyKrl> well, it depends on if the ground scatter objects are pre-placed; or if they are deterministically placed via something like PRNG.
[00:00:23] <KrazyKrl> And then they may be tied to biomes. I dunno exactly how ground scatters are implemented.
[00:09:55] <darsie> Yay, loads of trees near the Mountains near KSC.
[00:14:14] <darsie> Is there an FPS counter?
[00:35:31] <darsie> The grass is impressive, too, on Kerbin: http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot115.png
[03:58:46] <Guest08450> I have a satellite speed question anyone on?
[03:59:48] <Guest08450> Hello?
[04:01:19] <JCB> hmm?
[04:02:15] <Guest08450> I watched a satellite moving at probably a 4th the speed of any I've watched before. I've always assumed they travel at nearly the same speed. Any easy answer?
[04:02:56] <JCB> ... saw something from the ground flying over head, probably a point of light in the sky?
[04:04:08] <Guest08450> Yes. A tumbling satellite, not a blinking plane
[04:04:19] <JCB> lol.. tumbling
[04:04:41] <Guest08450> Spinning???
[04:05:00] <JCB> depends on the design.. some don't even really move that much
[04:05:55] <JCB> was it straight up over head or more towards the horizon?
[04:07:03] <Guest08450> Straight up. Just never seen one go so slow. I have seen them change direction before
[04:07:24] <Guest08450> Always looking up...
[04:07:34] <JCB> first off.. they don't just change direction
[04:08:19] <Guest08450> Small flash of light and changed 90°
[04:08:38] <Guest08450> Not a ufo guy I swear 
[04:08:57] <JCB> not saying ufo..
[04:09:18] <JCB> just saying.. satellites don't change direction in flight.. and not by 90 degrees in a moments notice like you describe
[04:09:54] <JCB> they going nearly 8km/s to start with
[04:10:26] <mabus> i saw a totally bizarre light in the sky i thought was a helicopter the other day, but it wasnt moving
[04:10:36] <mabus> after a little research, consulting this channel and some software
[04:10:38] <mabus> it was mars!
[04:10:39] <Guest08450> Off topic. Could I have seen a satellite in an elliptical orbit and it seemed slow?
[04:11:38] <JCB> venus can be pretty bright too
[04:12:30] <JCB> don't know... depends. The further out something is, harder it is to see with sunlight reflection.. size also affects things, bigger it is, easier it is to see.
[04:12:37] <JCB> oh well
[04:36:48] <Bllaank> Where would I go to check the orbit of Elon Musk's Cherry Red Tesla Roadster?
[04:37:50] <Althego> there are no updates on it since it cant be found anymore
[04:39:16] <Bllaank> Well they had the old orbit, shouldn't they be able to estimate where it is?  I know there will be errors.
[04:42:25] <Althego> you could search for 2018-017A
[04:42:54] <JCB> was a website that estimated

[17:41:57] <Althego> i like this. really simple and fun
[19:28:15] <Draconiator>  If anyone knows BASIC in here, how do I make a simple counter counting up and it'll actually display the numbers?  Right now I have this as a placeholder.
[19:28:16] <Draconiator> 120 FOR X=1 TO 100
[19:28:16] <Draconiator> 130 PRINT "."
[19:28:17] <Draconiator> 140 NEXT X
[19:29:33] <Draconiator> I COULD do that with every number but that would be a pain in the arse.

[19:52:30] <UmbralRaptop> I'd argue that the TI-89 is better >_>
