Using them requires upgrading both the Tracking Station and Mission Control.
<estorado>
thank you
<Althego>
however you dont need the nodes to go to the mun, there is a trick to it
<estorado>
I am trying a orbit right now :)
<Althego>
you dont need node for that either :)
<estorado>
yes I know, but it would be easier
<kubi>
morning
<kubi>
is there a way to change the font size in mechjeb?

vall wasn't that easy to land on either
<NGC3982>
only had 1300dV left from tylo exit :(.

so far i have traveled kerbin > mun (refuel) > pol > bop > tylo > vall > pol (refuel) and im on my way to eeloo. i have no idea if i have panels, antennas or dV for this :<

<Althego>
hehe
<Althego>
solar panels dont reall work there
<NGC3982>
but wow, one thing that really opened up this game again for me is the career mode. being forced to do new stuff to get funds made the game so much better

<Althego>
it is nice once in a while. you need to do stuff you would never do normally
<NGC3982>
yes indeed. when i first installed ksp 2-3 years ago i jumped into sandbox directly. that was a huge mistake :/
<Althego>
what i enjoy is juggling 20 missions in parallel
<NGC3982>
that's cool
<NGC3982>
i try to combine as much as possible
<NGC3982>
and now when i have find a somewhat good refueling (and recently learned to rendezvouz and dock properly) that works better

some Schrödinger Debris passing through my physics bubble. with a 30km Pe, it should have burned long ago

packbart: I hope for KSP2 we get degrading orbits for stuff that skims through the atmosphere ;P
<darsie>
We have that in 1.8.1 already.
<Mat2ch>
We do?
<Rolf>
for outside physics?
<darsie>
sure
<Mat2ch>
I should read the patch notes more carefully
<darsie>
Aerobraking is a think in KSP.
<darsie>
thing
<Rolf>
well yeah thats why I asked if it works outside physics sphere
<darsie>
no
<Rolf>
ie it predicts effects by atomsphere and adjusts orbit after it
<Rolf>
too bad that'd be very cheap way to fake it outside physics
<darsie>
during time warp?
<Rolf>
or any other time
<Mat2ch>
jep
<darsie>
Would we get n-body physics?
<Mat2ch>
probably not
<Althego>
hehe doubt it
<darsie>
That would require a stable solar system :).
<Rolf>
we cant do 3 body problem, let alone more
<darsie>
Would it help to calculate it on graphics cards?
<Althego>
no, not really
<Althego>
since there is no closed form solution it has to simulate all the time
<Althego>
not to mention for the future in caase of orbit predictions
<darsie>
Uncertainties would add to realism.
<Rolf>
man if we ever solve 3 body problem
<darsie>
Is there proof it's unsolvable?
<Rolf>
btw three body problem is first book of AMAZING hard sci fi trilogy.
<Rolf>
yeah poroven to be ircastically chaouc
<darsie>
ircastically?
<Rolf>
just like 2 segement pentalium (cant spell it)
<Rolf>
yeah really basic part of how math works out
<Rolf>
"There is no general analytical solution to the three-body problem given by simple algebraic expressions and integrals.[1] Moreover, the motion of three bodies is generally non-repeating, except in special cases.[5]"

If you're still bored, throw relativity in it :).
<Rolf>
lol
<Rolf>
read the trilogy I menioned
<Rolf>
by end you will wish you could wipe your memory so you can experence it for first time again
