<packbart>
surface samples, like with asteroids. in stock, only floating Kerbals can take it
<packbart>
Comets have 4 types vs the only type of asteroids
<raptop>
nice
<packbart>
"Renaming a comet allows duplicate surface samples to get full science credit." - interesting bug
<packbart>
the "Test test test test" is in KSP_Data/sharedassets5.assets but I didn't see a bug report for it. maybe darsie's just more lucky than others ;)
<packbart>
my career doesn't have comets, yet (I should finally upgrade the Tracking Station)
<packbart>
ooh, comets can break up on reentry. I'll have to see that
<darsie>
I was hoping for a tail. Maybe if it gets closer to the Sun.
<packbart>
don't rename the comet before taking a sample, otherwise the contract won't fulfil (it tracks the name, not the ID. that's another bug report)
<darsie>
Yep, needs more heat for the tail.

<Althego>
the nasa tv stream is probably already behind reality
<packbart>
yeah and the LC123 seems to be a restream of both?
Tank2333 has joined #KSPOfficial
<Althego>
i guess the roskosmos tv thing is the most authentic
<packbart>
I should have taken russian language classes in school instead of french ;)
<Althego>
at one time i seriously considered learning russian because of space things
<Althego>
i even started it
<Althego>
but then i changed jobs
<Althego>
maybe i should really start it now
<packbart>
in the roskomsos stream, the clock lower right and on the board behind them disagree
<Althego>
hehe
<Althego>
yes it is funny
<Althego>
but the american didnt have a counter
<Althego>
just the announcer
<packbart>
they don't even have the telemetry overlay
<Althego>
and as it turned out during the soyuz abort, that the overlay was preprogrammed and not live :)
<Althego>
a ride on the soyuz with external cams
<packbart>
unless that's also preprogrammed ;)
<Althego>
but they are not up to spacex standards yet :)
<packbart>
ooh, ReStock
<Althego>
did the americans get a worse animation?
<packbart>
KSP can do this simulation, too
<packbart>
looks different, indeed
<Althego>
yes, as he said, it is stable. in previous launches there was an annoying oscilaltion, and it was also visible for the soyuz, not only for the progress

wait, what? 2 hours to rendezvous?
<Althego>
that is the normal fast track
<packbart>
I thought the fast track was 6 hours. I must update my memory
<Althego>
the slow way is something like 2 days
HerraTohtori has joined #KSPOfficial
<Althego>
hmm, maybe it was 6 hours?
<packbart>
or maybe I didn't quite get what the PAO said, I wasn't paying attention
<packbart>
oh, right, I can rewind the stream
<Althego>
too bad you cant forward it :)
<packbart>
Instant Video!
<packbart>
"we will be back in 2:20h for live coverage of the rendezvous" - no, I heard it right. nice.

thought getting to orbit was meant to be a bit of a challenge? unlock the swivel engine and FL-T200 tanks, and I can already get Mk1 pod into orbit doing something with a two stage.
<Althego>
it is really hard not to make into orbit on first launch
<Althego>
if you collect enoughscience from aroun the space center
<Althego>
but then you still dont have eva so you cant easily collect the flying low high in space low high goo and bay science
<Althego>
so because of this i choose a hop first
<JVFoxy>
I usually do a quick jump with SRB as my first flight
<JVFoxy>
once I get EVA, dual pods a craft, get it to hover, pop the second person out to get eva while in flight ;P
<Althego>
oh no, event horizon

Turok.. Tuvok.. eh well
<raptop>
Yeah, the swivel is all you need to get into orbit
<JVFoxy>
I use a pair for the first stage. A single for the second. I would say like Gemini but I stay connected to the second in order to do re-entry burn
