My klaw pivot jammed. Couldn't correct and almost lost my asteroid. Started rolling the asteroid to cancel the misalignment on average, somewhat.
<darsie>
Got it. Pe is out of Eve's atmosphere. Asteroid in LEO. Contract complete.

<Althego>
lol scott
<Althego>
because drain valves have a thrust, you can use them as engines :)
<Rolf>
quick, someone let danny know
<Rolf>
or make a plane using it yourselkf
<Althego>
lol they can drain intake air too :)
<Althego>
so essentially an infinite fuel plane
<Rolf>
:)
<Althego>
reminds me of the old style jets

one of manga plot has water snake that got so powerful that its called water disaster.
<Rolf>
how? easy enough, its a game type universe, and it had ability to purify water, and it gains power when in purified water
<Rolf>
it also gained ability to make water more dense
<Rolf>
which means more purified water around it, so it loops, stealing water from world
<Rolf>
ksp had couple that could be used to make a "disaster". like my snowflake plane
<Rolf>
5,000 kps just using drag/trust inequality
<Rolf>
*thurst
<Althego>
how is it possible that i dont know of this isekai? :)
<Rolf>
A Reincarnated Demon’s Tales of Wonder
<Rolf>
its not super amazing but its fun to read
<Rolf>
world has 8 disasters, including water one I menioned heh
<Althego>
seems to be light novel
Deddly has joined #KSPOfficial
<Rolf>
yeah. right now im reading the simulacrum. its more typical "die and find self in weird universe" but it twists it around a lot. charactor dont remember past life at all, but guy certainly remember the basic facts
<Rolf>
you probably will really enjoy that one
<Deddly>
I hate it when that happens
<Rolf>
other unusual one is world keeper.
<Rolf>
it starts with driver driving when really tired, and hitting someone, which turns out to be a keeper. and whatever kills keeper becomes a keeper
<Rolf>
everything got wiped with keeper so new one have to make new world, etc
<Rolf>
451 chapters, that one
<Mat2ch>
Althego: they have thrust, but it's so insignificant that you can hardly do anything with it
<Althego>
yet scott made it into orbit
<Rolf>
mat3ch i made ion engine plane. granted, it was pre-nerf...
<Rolf>
someone else made ion engine plane go to space
<Deddly>
Ions alone cannot get to space
<Deddly>
But Electricity + ion is possible
<Althego>
they can if you start from a maountain tio
<Rolf>
lol but of course
<Deddly>
Unless you launch from the highest mountain, then it might just about be possible
<Rolf>
video i saw guy started from landing stri[
<Rolf>
so thats near sea level
<Deddly>
By Electricity + ion I mean other electric propulsion, like propellors
<Rolf>
its pre-nerf
<Mat2ch>
how old is that video?
<Mat2ch>
Ok
<Mat2ch>
it was possible back then, yes
<Deddly>
Yeah, back in the old days, it could be done easily
<Rolf>
yeah. my "carplane" that uses ion engine cant even power itself around
<Rolf>
its hard actually even prenerf
<Rolf>
I couldnt do it
<Mat2ch>
Deddly: with props high enough, then switching to ions and ditching the props? ;)
<Deddly>
Mat2ch, yes
<Mat2ch>
I'd like to see that
<Althego>
what ion nerf?
<Althego>
anyway i didnt use it at all, so a nerf is not going to change my mind
<Rolf>
ion engine had a nerf while ago, huge impact on perforance when in air
<kmath>
YouTube - KSP - Duna and back using ONLY electric power and Xenon!

turns out even though it's at the top of a hill the minimus base still is in darkness a long time
<Mat2ch>
RTGs!
<Mat2ch>
Or a big tower
<Rolf>
deddly yeah that things awesome. its no wonder its your fav
<Mat2ch>
yes, go and build a huuuuuuuge tower on Minmus!
<Rolf>
very tall thin tower with solars on top
<Rolf>
auto aiming solar panels
<Mat2ch>
Funny thing. My Jool exploration vessel is so big that when it comes in loading range you can see it pretty well...
<Mat2ch>
*into loading range
<Mat2ch>
time for some indoor rain

i didn't bring enough I-beams for a large tower
<Eddi|zuHause>
game seems to treat the sun as one tiny light source, instead of a spread out one. so even though i can see it, it's treated as blocked by terrain
<Althego>
it is worse than that
<Althego>
there are regular eclipses because of the equatorial orbits many thigns have
<Althego>
and when that happens
<Althego>
the sun continues to shine
<Althego>
but there is no power on the solar panels
<Eddi|zuHause>
i'm not worried about eclipses
<Eddi|zuHause>
but driving around with a rover i've seen there is a sharp edge between "full power" and "no power", with no partial shade transition
<Althego>
there should be on planets with atmosphere
<Mat2ch>
they didn't hire Danny as beta tester? They really should. :D
<Rolf>
there is people that think planes fly on compressed gas? jeez lol
<Mat2ch>
technically not that wrong
<Mat2ch>
but something needs to be there to compress the gas
<Eddi|zuHause>
i'm fairly sure you can make a pneumatic airplane
<Eddi|zuHause>
there apparently was a french guy who built a pneumatic car, and some guy tried convincing me that it costs only 1/5 of regular fuel

air pressure buses does exist
<Eddi|zuHause>
... which i totally believe works, but i have no intention of believing the price
<dnsmcbr>
"thermal staging"
<dnsmcbr>
Nice
<Eddi|zuHause>
so... when i launched this rocket, i put all sorts of foundations and connector parts with me in storage, but they all seemed to have disappeared

I really need another level of time warp. Waiting 2 years on max timewarp still takes too long :P
<Eddi|zuHause>
i docked using the fuel transfer thingie, and it started drifting through the wall
<Eddi|zuHause>
RTS-1 Resource Transfer Station
<packbart>
because you clicked "docking mode" and didn't set "same-vessel interaction"?
<Eddi|zuHause>
that would explain the "through the wall" part, but not the drifting in the first place, which before docking was prevented by the brakes
sasamj has joined #KSPOfficial
<Eddi|zuHause>
i think i need a more rigid connector here
<Eddi|zuHause>
yeah, it works better with the telescope arm

using the resource transfer station as some sort of "power line" doesn't seem to work...
<Eddi|zuHause>
parts "attached to ground" seem to drift around
<packbart>
parts or wheels? the autostrutted suspension might try and drag you towards the heaviest part
