Any idea what I should write in Console to get Bill back to the station?
<jUMPSu1t>
Used cheats to get station & relay into Dunar orbit...sent Bill on EVA and then lost the station
<jUMPSu1t>
Help?
<jUMPSu1t>
Isn't there a way to autonomusly bring him back?
<jUMPSu1t>
I don['t want to just give up on him...already lost Val and Jeb to accidentally clicking Space Center instead of revert when their stuff crashed

The default setting is that they respawn after 2 hours, right?

Yeah...about that...I loaded a random quicksave and I'm starting over
<jUMPSu1t>
Now my KSP is broken...I'll just restart

<jUMPSu1t>
For a bit in the Astronaut Complex it showed Val as lost...now it says she's gone
<jUMPSu1t>
YOu can't respawn dead kerbals right??
<UmbralRaptop>
You could edit the persistence file, though I'd suggest checking the difficulty settings to make sure that they come back

the usual has the major 4 just reviving after a time far I remember
<JVFoxy>

Hey anybody here able to use the graphical manuever node editor in career mode??? i cannot get the menu to work for the life of me!
<packbart>
darsie: while I sometimes disable the additional ground stations, I concur with the opinion that it would be weird if Kerbals conquer space but can't even set up a relay antenna on the other side of their planet :)
<packbart>
I've driven around and built relays with KAS ground pylons, though

<darsie>
so switch to map.
<darsie>
Or what do you call the 'real' mode?
<Rolf>
"outside" mode
<darsie>
Does a ship get lighter if an antenna breaks?
<Rolf>
would be funny if some part subtracts more mass than it has when it breaks off
<darsie>
Cause in an early attempt an antenna broke and it looked like I could go to 3 Mm orbit, but later, when the antenna wasn't broken I can only get to 1 Mm or so.
<Rolf>
bet that'd be funny to exploit if it exists
<darsie>
negative mass :).
<Rolf>
that might be drag loss

This time I'm raising apoapsis before reaching orbit. Maybe that's the difference.
<darsie>
But it should give me more Oberth.

i'm in map mode and everything. i have a manuver node, i have it selected, i can edit it with the text editor and the old UI that appears on your actual path but i can't bring up specifically the new graphical editor
<Althego>
i didnt put a fuel tank under it, so there is nothing there to soak in the heat
<Althego>
and the nuke is generating a lot of heat
<Althego>
so the engine can be used intermittently
<Althego>
luckily there is not much going on now, most things are going to or rom minmus
<Althego>
this is specifically a mun polar biome hopper
<Althego>
i hope it can go to a few more places
<JVFoxy>
huh... didn't have radiators yet or just didn't think you'd needed them?
<JVFoxy>
I knew nukes get warm, the little warning gauge kicks up if you run them long enough.. but, usually my craft, if I ever use them, are pretty big, heat transfer wasn't a big issue
<Althego>
i didnt think the issue would be this bad
<Althego>
but it is workable
<Althego>
problem is passive radiators cant cool very far
<Althego>
so they cant cool the nuke because they are not on it
<JVFoxy>
the little non-folding ones, can cool the part next to them, (otherwise whats the point) as well as next parts around it. The active ones, cool the whole ship but takes power
<JVFoxy>
well I think they all take power.
<Althego>
they do
<JVFoxy>
old days, you coudn't even turn them of
<JVFoxy>
whatever part you stuck between the core and nuke, probably just stick any radiator on it, probably could have helped at least a little bit
<JVFoxy>
I was messing around with some plane designs using the MK3 body parts. slung gloliath engines under the massive wings. First time I seen wings get 'warm' for whatever reason. Wasn't even sure it was teh wings, two gauges just showed up around the wing roots.
<JVFoxy>
I ended up scrapping the design with goliaths anyways.. kind of looked stupid. Original design had 4 wheezly engines, seemed to work ok.

looking at some stock creations, got me wondering, how big is it making something close to the real thing, or is it just a sub-class sorta thing?
<JVFoxy>
got a few planes that fly pretty good, not really parts heavy, more for function then looks
<kmath>
<jgrahamc> When @Cloudflare launched the public 1.1.1.1 resolver we supported plain DNS, DoH, DoTLS and offered to reply by SM… https://t.co/Jb6TXsZ48Z
<Althego>
how big is what?
<JVFoxy>
?
<Althego>
you asked how big is it making something close to the real thing
<Althego>
and i cant find out what the subject was
<Althego>
this plane is, based on the sizes the game reported for length and width, is a scale replica of a b-52 and an x-15 http://warpology.com/k/shadow.png
<JVFoxy>
oh sorry, by big... as in... eh..
<JVFoxy>
people only care for things made to look realistic with a million parts, do others even care about something that looks ok, not so many parts, flies great, so on?
<packbart>
I'd say most do. Gets airborne, is controllable, doesn't crash immediately -> A Good Kerbin Flyer
<Althego>
i dont really build replicas, i am quite horrible at it. even if i do, i want to make them work
<packbart>
my guess is that one could either build a replica of some vehicle from Earth's history - or something that actually works and doesn't need oodles of clipped parts

i have 1800 m/s remaining. i doubt i could do another hop and get back to kerbin. the closest position i need to be requires around orbital speeds, quarter around the mun
<Althego>
i guess i need to get into orbit. i fulfulled the primary mission and a bit more
<JVFoxy>
I would more parts but I've been noticing pc sorta struggles a bit after a certain number of parts.
<Althego>
and bob is voming back from outside kerbin soi
<Althego>
hehe electron launch moved again
<JVFoxy>
it is a rather decent machine but.. now I"m starting to wonder if I either got settings too high or pc actually having hard time keeping up with the game these days. 3.3ghz quad core... 8gig ram.. and still not enough?
<packbart>
"voming"? sounds like a high-g slingshot maneuver
* packbart
moved the "physics frame limit" and now has mostly green clocks even with larger craft
<packbart>
although it gets down to 7fps sometimes. I can endure that better than time slowing down
<Althego>
it starts to get unbearably slow around 800 parts
<JVFoxy>
moved... to less phsyical frames a second or?
<Althego>
but probably i could go up to 1000
<packbart>
JVFoxy: less graphic frames before time slows down. or something like that. I read a good description in the forum but can't find it right now
<JVFoxy>
I think mind is just been 'stock setting'... though usually I would bump most of hte other graphical settings to max, other than debris and maybe one or two other things. I've also wondered if my graphics card just can't keep up any more

i forgot about two probes around minmus. the game hid them by changing their icon to relay
<Althego>
i turn off the relays becasue there are too many of them
<Althego>
and of course the game spontaneously changes some icons to relays
<Althego>
i think it happened when i docked them
<Althego>
ok at least there is something to do until the next nodes happen
<JVFoxy>
hate when game thinks it knows better than you. :\
<packbart>
well, you *could* fiddle with the naming priority on probe cores and command pods before launch ;)
<Althego>
now that i can
<Althego>
sometimes i dont forget it
<packbart>
indeed, sometimes I don't, either :)
