trying out some mission ideas... like getting a probe out of kerbin's SOI, then bringing it back.

It's a nice way of scraping out a bit more science.
<JVFoxy>
11 day one way trip though
<JVFoxy>
I still have Val, Jeb, and that one rescue still in Mun orbit waiting for me to figure out what to do with them.
<raptop>
I mean, you can always run small missions in the interim
<JVFoxy>
half tempted to say fff-it, just bring them back, figure out things after
<JVFoxy>
but.. contract to land on mun, two LKO rescues, one is a pilot
<JVFoxy>
I guess I could just fire off this out-of-SOI probe, launch rescues right after. Constantly firing off rockets one after another right away.. oof, starting to feel a bit arcade like
<raptop>
Amused by the thrown together from different spare parts aesthetic
<raptop>
huh, classic Elite has 2048 planets. (Procedural generation is magic)
<JVFoxy>
Raptop lol, isn't that what most of KSP is about though?
<raptop>
Well, yes
<raptop>
Ish
<raptop>
It's complicated
<JVFoxy>
granted, career, not everything's been opened up. Limited to 30 parts, but first upgrade on Launch pad, but that's by choice
<raptop>
Like, there's procedural terrain, but the details have sometimes been hand-altered (notably with Kerbin)
<JVFoxy>
oh.. Elite
<JVFoxy>
I had a friend who did a game with whole bunch of planets. They did texture mapping but I'm not sure if they had done it to /all/ of them

long while back, I did do a station with docking ports on arms. Trouble is, I'm not sure its something I can launch with the current game's physics. Maybe if I sent it up in parts?
<umaxtu>
are the hinges vanilla or part of the DLC?
<umaxtu>
that way you could fold the arms out
<JVFoxy>
think hinges are DLC
<JVFoxy>
way it was originally designed though, was back in KSP 1.2.0 It was originally meant to replace another station I had in orbit at the time, but never got launched. Called it 'Crossroads' https://imgur.com/a/waEbI9u

raptop: It was going to have more, but the publishers told them that would be silly
<raptop>
hm
<JVFoxy>
If I was to remake it now, I can do away with struts cuz of auto struts. Mind you, probably doesn't need it anyways. I may have added them in for looks?
<FLHerne>
And another one on Black Arrow which is equally topical
<JVFoxy>
heh.. Black Arrow.. aka lipstick rocket?
<FLHerne>
Yeah, weird-looking thing
<JVFoxy>
Brits and their rocket but also Canada and the Avro Arrow as well... which sadly got cut short
<FLHerne>
There's a whole British tradition of that, my grandad worked on TSR-2
<FLHerne>
and was so peeved when they cancelled it that he emigrated to Zambia :p

Sadly, we also only had the one jet fighter ever made natively. The Canuck. I saw a video no it, was surprised it went through so much during its lifetime

TSR-2 looks cool
<JVFoxy>
though, landing gear looks a bit weird, but I can understand why they went that way

Eh, Ravey Kerbin, a pilot. So.. Rave flights anyone?
<Althego>
at least it is not dubstep
<JVFoxy>
Now I wanna House Kerbin, and not the Doctor one
<JVFoxy>
Ugh, now I'm wondering how the game comes up with names. Is it pulling from a giant list, or some sort of algorithm that puts parts together?
<Althego>
i tihnk it is both
<Althego>
there are special names that are from a list
<Althego>
but most of the time it is generated from smaller parts
<JVFoxy>
I remember mention of the list, but it was ages ago. Didn't know if it had changed or not.
<JVFoxy>
I know that everything 'Kerman' is a thing, but doesn't it give the feeling that they are just all clones. Maybe wanna see some different last names?
jazzkutya has joined #KSPOfficial
<Deddly>
Exactly as Althego says. Names plus a name generator that follows certain rules
<Deddly>
I recall the Kuzzter parodied the "Kerman" thing in one of his Kerbfleet comics.
<Deddly>
Something like "you must be related, you have the same surnames"
