<hatrix>
any mod for more interesting contracts?

<darsie>
hatrix: Can you think of more interesting contracts?
<hatrix>
well, I can think of some things to do, but I'd like to get new ideas
<FLHerne>
Second post has a list of contract packs for it

ugh... hate when something goes sideways, messes with moods, then turns out it was all for nothing. >_>
<hatrix>
I don't really know how contracts are created though, to what extent they're automatic
<hatrix>
i'm playing Beyond Home, not sure how contracts will be handled
<hatrix>
I've already got 3 different KSP folders, I'm not sure what combination of mods I want to play D:
<JVFoxy>
hatrix don't know much about how contracts are created. Though I did notice in the persistent file, it doesn't exactly retain location names? Just a flag for them for each contract you take.
<hatrix>
hmm
<hatrix>
in Beyond Home it's a bit glitchy
<hatrix>
I've never left the home planet's SOI and I get contracts for landing on planets on another system
<JVFoxy>
I did get one contract asking me to return a satellite from mun orbit. I guess it saw what I had out there.. a couple of times it even asked me to upgrade a station
<hatrix>
haha yeah, I got a contract asking me to move one of my relays, never going to happen :)
kubi has joined #KSPOfficial
<JVFoxy>
huh... got something of the like, asking me to do a orbital plane change on a probe some old career ago, past several versions back. Career save still sorta sitting there untouuched for months
<packbart>
hatrix: Kourageous Tourists has contracts to take tourists to anomalies, so there's some reason to scan for them (or look up the locations in the wiki ;)
<packbart>
it's a bit tedious to get a gaggle of tourists out of the can. I build a small Kerbal Mass Ejection PartModule but it doesn't work yet as it should ;)
<JVFoxy>
I'd like to see more use for planes.. seem to recall some mod that put contracts out to fly kerbals to destinations?
<JVFoxy>
lol.. mass ejection
<JVFoxy>
makes me think that kerbal mun ejection system someone did. Involves a fuel tank, pair of mainsail engines
<packbart>
it pushes every Kerbal in a part out of all available airlocks. some of them collide and accelerate to hilarious speeds
<JVFoxy>
free floating kerbals in a cargo bay... um ya, not such a hot idea. Kerbals tend to... break through walls as it were
<hatrix>
ok so stock only
<packbart>
hmm. not every Kerbal throufh all airlocks, though. at least while the camera is watching
<JVFoxy>
KIS/KAS has props for kerbals, like the boombox, taco, ect. Any other mods that adds more stuff to the inventory system?
<JVFoxy>
though, realizing now I might be thinking kerbal doll house or something

<Alanonzander>
there is one that has some scanner tools, eye piece, etc but I cannot think of the name
<JVFoxy>
don't know the name either but vaguely remember the stuff you talking about.
<JVFoxy>
going to place it outside or inside kerbin's solar orbit/
<packbart>
space stations don't "do" much (except maybe for Kerbalism's science modifications where some experiments take years)
<JVFoxy>
this including ones with sci labs?
<JVFoxy>
I'm half tempted to place one around mun or something.. like to get one out to Duna as a mission..
<packbart>
the labs's purpose with Kerbalism is to transmit science experiments that would have required return to Kerbin. it takes a long time, too
<JVFoxy>
I know in stock, take science reports, turns it into data to be sent back .. or something. I haven't really messed with the lab too much
<hatrix>
I've got stations around the three moons and the home planet already :x
<hatrix>
JVFoxy: that's the best way to get a lot of science quite easily and fast
<JVFoxy>
station on kerbin doesn't really add too much, last I read at least
<hatrix>
one mission easily yiels 3k
<JVFoxy>
well.. on.. but also around
<JVFoxy>
I've generally tried to return science directly than transmitting. Unless it already gets full marks such as with crew reports
<hatrix>
you'll get more with the lab
<JVFoxy>
like I said, I haven't messed with lab too much. Its a bit of an .. 'investment'
<packbart>
Kerbalism doesn't have the "analyse the same sample a dozen times, get science every time" function of the stock labs
<packbart>
I haven't played with Kerbalism in quite a while, though. life-support mods fail me in long-term missions if they rely on resource converter chains
<packbart>
I liked the science part. A Mystery Goo observation takes 10 minutes

like watching grass grow, only in more color than green
<JVFoxy>
seems I hit a science point once and leave it at that. something about the whole diminishing returns thing..?

huh... so contract is 3 stars to rescue kerbal in low kerbin orbit... uh...
<JVFoxy>
why do I get the feeling its not so /low/ orbit..
<JVFoxy>
huh.. so it is low orbit, regular rescue contract. But why 3 stars?
<darsie>
retrograde?
<darsie>
Maybe you're a noob ;).
<darsie>
Going to orbit was 3*, too, IIRC :).
Lyneira has quit [Quit: Bye]
<JVFoxy>
well considering I can get right up to the door in less than a 1/4 orbit from launch...
<JVFoxy>
well ok, maybe a touch more than 1/4 orbit.. but less than 1/2
<packbart>
the reputation is randomised over a range, I guess
<darsie>
JVFoxy: What tools do you use for that aptitude?
<JVFoxy>
Crsming, pilot, orbit is 86x80
<JVFoxy>
... Crisming
<JVFoxy>
maybe cuz she was nearly over top of the center at taking the contract?
<JVFoxy>
tools?
<darsie>
JVFoxy: Any mods?
<darsie>
Like MJ
<JVFoxy>
nope.. stock
<darsie>
ok
<JVFoxy>
all in timing the launch
<darsie>
mhm
<darsie>
At first attempt?
<JVFoxy>
though I did have to rush things a bit into orbit.. max Q... ya I'm pushing past that
<JVFoxy>
ya she's in.. 15 minutes since launch
<JVFoxy>
yeesh.. she seems overly happy..
<hatrix>
I forgot it literally takes years for a relay around the star :|
<JVFoxy>
lol... fuel tank surface water impact
<JVFoxy>
kerbal rescued just shy of 40 minutes
<hatrix>
it feels so weird having the perfect orbital period to the millisecond when it's around 3 years
Lyneira has joined #KSPOfficial
<JVFoxy>
lol.. so what does it mean to have a tourist with the badass trait?
<JVFoxy>
nice to have another pilot but.. eh... was more meant as a test run to see why 3 stars. Other than cuz orbit wasn't ciruclar
<JVFoxy>
I still got the 3 sitting around the mun to deal with... and after this rescue, another 3 star one pops up, 6 tourists to go around the mun and back
<JVFoxy>
almost starting to seem like a career I had earlier.. except with 10 tourists, 8 for kerbal orbit, 2 was mun

<LabPadre> Manhole size rupture on #Starship SN7 test tank but it still stands. They're getting closer to perfection. #SpaceX… https://t.co/yp0vWLto18

hehe buff out
<Althego>
are they really going to fix this?

ksp 1.9.1 with both expansions
<Althego>
so apparently amd is delaying the next zen cpus a few months because intel is unable to come up with anything against them
<Althego>
this is going to hurt their reputation and it seems like a... shaft move to me

well, why accelerate if you're in the lead
<Althego>
to stay in t he lead, because you are a small company operating with income t he size of the rival's research budget
<darsie>
Althego: I heard it was an intentionally destructive test. I doubt they'll fix it.
<darsie>
Maybe they replace the tanks.
<Althego>
yes it was intentional, elon said it
<Althego>
but he also said the it will buff out thing. probably as a joke

is there any tool to model KSP system outside of KSP?
<hatrix>
I'd like to show distances between planets, SOI or other stuff
<hatrix>
the tracking station is not practical
<hatrix>
also maneuvers right inside the tracking station would be nice for some plotting with dummy crafts
<flayer>
hopefully i'll be free of kredit issues once i get my duna base landed
<flayer>
i actually failed to complete the asteroid retrieval missions in time :(
<hatrix>
I had several contracts also but my solar relay network took 12 years…

Hello, by the antenna's it says L1,L2 and L3. Is that for the level of tracking station?
