[00:31:37] darsie: Added mission: Collide with something that's on the same orbit as you, but goes in the other direction. [00:45:17] well, if that's the intended mission. still hard to do [05:28:50] no falcon eye 2 launch, but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPAXBKh9O4Y [06:15:33] scott about rocketlab videos. because there were two more of returning and landing [06:23:14] so here is scott https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXup0kgkTCs [06:23:34] with an other video about the spacex landing [06:24:27] the rocketlab tweets https://twitter.com/Peter_J_Beck/status/1332391273848729601 [06:24:32] https://twitter.com/Peter_J_Beck/status/1332107093881417728 [06:24:49] note the kind reminder from the internet about the hat. made me laugh [07:16:13] about 8 minutes [07:25:25] pesky clouds [10:42:14] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptor' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [11:28:34] Last message repeated 1 time(s). [11:28:34] Doesn't look like SN8 is going to hop tomorrow :/ [11:29:13] From what I've seen the weather is not good enough. Too strong upper winds [11:30:04] i've had some strong lower winds [11:30:10] had to open a window [11:41:11] flayer: Out! Now! [11:46:28] https://www.nasa.gov/feature/ames/mitochondria-cell-science [15:16:35] hehe winds [15:30:41] Where? [15:30:52] in the log [15:38:23] and yes winds are still predicted for monday, tuesday is a better candidate, although it will be cloudy then [16:14:40] I thought we were still waiting on the FAA?

[18:18:45] Action: umbralraptop presses F to pay respects for Google Reader [19:27:55] My second flight to orbit video was deleted from reddit cause it's hosted on the piratebay :(. [19:54:23] lol [19:55:58] ksp shouldn't lose much performance going from 1080p to 4k right? [19:56:03] since its cpu-bound [19:56:53] by the sound of the card horizon zero dawn taxes the gpu less than ksp [19:57:06] so i wouldnt be so sure [19:59:53] the ui looks tiny argh [20:02:58] seems to be running fine [20:03:21] about the same fps as 1080p on my ryzen 7 1700 [20:06:53] yes, it works fine in 4K [20:07:01] the GUI elements can be scaled [20:07:46] but there is a bug in Linux that they have nto fixed yet (maybe now?!) that requires you to go to the config menu and just press accept to scale [20:51:50] Action: darsie reposted his video with a DHT hash and magnet link. [21:26:29] I'm not seeing any ui scaling options [21:26:48] oh its under general not graphics(where it should be) [21:33:51] yes [21:33:57] it helps [23:45:32] Action: darsie thought about doing another going to orbit tutorial and this is the last iteration: https://i.ibb.co/vDrLGXc/screenshot286.png [23:49:36] yeah, that would probably work [23:49:45] It does. [23:49:59] 100ish m/s left in orbit. [23:50:44] Well, what I consider orbit :). 71 km :) [23:51:04] I've seen one guy doing 90 km. [23:51:09] Is that enough margin for error for bad flying? [23:51:42] People who need a going-to-orbit tutorial aren't going to gravity-turn and circularise perfectly [23:51:50] Not much. I had other designs first, and improved on them. That would be part of the tutorial. [23:52:09] 90km leaves plenty of margin for 90x71 or whatever [23:52:38] First one used FL-200 and Terrier. [23:53:08] tbh, I like the rocket, but I'm not sure it's optimized for the right thing :p [23:53:33] FL-200 + Terrier is better for a tutorial because it carries over to career games [23:54:02] Yeah, it's somewhat advanced. But I had other verisons first, which are better for newbies. The optimization steps woud be part of the tutorial. [23:54:27] And removing all unnecessary margin is just aggravating when you're trying to learn the basics [23:54:37] true [23:55:12] If you mean "ok, so we orbited -- but look, we can build a smaller and more efficient rocket", then that sounds ok [23:55:13] Well, they can fly the more forgiving designs first, and then go for optimization, if they want. [23:56:33] Maybe I shouldn't go for 71 km first, yes.
