My hard drive crashed a few days ago, and when I downloaded KSP to a new computer my Career game was still available - I guess it was saved on Steam? Anyhow, I re-installed Kerbal Engineer, and was playing around with new games in Sandbox mode, while I waited to see if my hard drive could be recovered. While in Sandbox mode I see the HUD's from Ker
<Guest59803>
bal Engineer, but in my Career game none of the KER windows will appear. I have the KER icon on the right side of the screen, but it's black and there's no response to clicking it, as in my Sandbox games. Any suggestions?
<Guest59803>
I've deleted KER folder from Game Data and replaced it, but no change.
<Guest59803>
I just noticed that KER is available in the Tracking Station, but not in flight, or the SPH/VAB.

... something about someone's metal spheres...
<JVFoxy>
is it me or does saying the 'B' word starting to feel a bit.. wrong?
<raptop>
booster?
<Althego>
boost::? :)
<JVFoxy>
other word for spheres
<JVFoxy>
in relation to Scott's video
<Althego>
i think balls are an ok word
<raptop>
yeah, that's an okay word. Especially for spheres covered in pentagons and hexagons, or with "spalding" written on the side

ok... guess just my stupid paranoia..
<JVFoxy>
other than that, anyone else been sky watching lately?
<packbart>
nah, it's been too cloudy all nights
<JVFoxy>
ya most nights here too.. got to see jupiter, Saturn, Mars last night. Sometime during sun-up, clouded right over
<JVFoxy>
I guess I haven't really given sky watching much consideration given how things been at home. Its only since I've spent some time at a friend's...
<raptop>
unfortunately, current apt is really bad for any sort of viewing and my current transit options are limited, so no taking a telescope to a park
<JVFoxy>
I took my field scope and tripod to a friend's place. Has an apartment with a balcony that faces south.
<JVFoxy>
I was looking at a telescope at a thrift store, but didn't get it, was missing the eye piece sadly
<raptop>
Unless they're doing a weird bespoke thing, that's not a problem?
<raptop>
like, as long as the focuser is there, you can just drop in an eyepiece
<raptop>
(hopefully 1.25")
<Althego>
yes you could have probably just bought one

Incidentally, I'm reminded of when I probably could have easily gotten a 4.5" on a nice GEM, but skipped because the focuser only supported 0.965" eyepieces
<JVFoxy>
wasn't sure what size/focal it would been, or where I could have gotten something.
<JVFoxy>
telescope was a reflector type, though felt pretty light even with the built on tripode
<JVFoxy>
no countrweights at all. Just pan/tilt, handle/twist lock like in pic. Hinge part was a bit different, closer to the body
<raptop>
urg, flimsy alt-az of some sort?
<JVFoxy>
ya
<JVFoxy>
if I had the money, I would get a equatorial mount with compensating motor drives. then I could start looking at doing time lapse and filtered pics. Post processing..
<JVFoxy>
till then, its just my Bushnell Sentry and maybe some day find a digital camera mount
<JVFoxy>
in any case.. need to do some stuff, clean up..
