00:03 <Qubyte> hmm

00:03 <Qubyte> i heard that you should put space stations above 250km to increase FPS or something?

00:04 <Qubyte> apparently ksp switches to a simpler way of rendering planets at that altitude that apparently has an effect on fps

00:31 <darsie> I put my stations at 80 km or so.

00:32 <darsie> My refuelling station has 140 km Ap. IIRC that's because how it happened, and because it happens to some ships, too.

00:33 <packbart> I do notice a short lag at ~150km with a returning capsule. it usually doesn

00:33 <packbart> doesn't affect anything muc

13:18 Guest24953 has joined #KSPOfficial

13:20 <Guest24953> a few questions. i had this game for a long time and have played it intensively but then i didnt tuch it for the past 3 years

13:20 <Guest24953> are the 2 DLCs worth it?

13:22 <packbart> maybe, yes

13:22 Daz has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]

13:23 Daz has joined #KSPOfficial

13:24 Daz has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]

13:24 <Althego> Guest24953: i dont really like making history dlc, but breaking ground added electric props and robotic parts, and these are quite worthy (also can lift mjölnir)

13:24 Daz has joined #KSPOfficial

13:25 <packbart> the 1.875m parts are a useful intermediate size (although augmenting it with the Missing History mod is recommended). the Mission thingy has its uses to plan and replay missions but I didn't use it much

13:26 <Althego> yes that is true

13:26 <packbart> (imo, ymmv)

13:26 <Althego> i didnt notice those were from the dlc

13:26 <Althego> i use thos

13:26 <Althego> e

13:26 <packbart> the 5m parts are from MH, too?

13:26 <packbart> or is that stock-stock

13:26 <Althego> https://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Making_History_parts

13:26 <Althego> https://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Breaking_Ground_parts

13:27 <Guest24953> in other words its worth it

13:27 <Guest24953> the breaknig grounds DLC

13:27 <packbart> oh, the egine plates are good, too

13:27 <packbart> +n

13:27 <Guest24953> can i make helicopters with breaknig grounds DLC?

13:27 <Althego> engine plates are just a shortcut to my usual method with cubic...

13:27 <Althego> yes you can

13:27 <Althego> but they are not easy to handle

13:27 <packbart> anyway, I'd probably buy any KSP DLC. shutupandtakemymoney :)

13:28 <Guest24953> #packbart smart smart boi

13:28 <Guest24953> what about the maknig histroy DLC in short what is it about

13:28 <Guest24953> and is it worth it?

13:28 <packbart> yes, the parts alone are worth it

13:28 Daz has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]

13:28 <Guest24953> relative to its contributions

13:28 <packbart> (I'd say)

13:29 Daz has joined #KSPOfficial

13:29 <packbart> the additional gameplay stuff not so much, unless you want to build challenges for your friends or such

13:29 <Guest24953> ah so makngi history also adds parts

13:29 <packbart> yeah, see the two wiki links Althego posted

13:29 <Guest24953> alright wil lcheck them out and ty for all the info guys

13:29 <Guest24953> its such a nice game

14:25 <Mat2ch> .oO( I'm still mad about the DLC and will always be :P )

14:26 <Althego> i bought the game too late

14:26 <Althego> so it was not free

14:28 <packbart> I bought KSP and MH in a sale on Steam, not for the full price

14:29 <Althego> i couldnt stop playing ksp for 5 years. cost 15 eur. well spent

14:29 <packbart> still, I think DLCs are important for KSP to keep development going should the buzz for new players slow down

14:29 <Althego> yes, obviously. but the making history was something that nobody wanted

14:30 <packbart> apart from the parts pack?

14:30 <Althego> those are a nice addition, but no way important

14:30 Daz has quit [Read error: -0x1: UNKNOWN ERROR CODE (0001)]

14:31 Daz has joined #KSPOfficial

14:31 <Althego> but i always wanted the electric props and the robotic joints

14:31 <Althego> but whatever i do i cant put enough props on a plane to really fly on duna

14:31 <packbart> I use the structual parts in almost every rover. sure, some modder would eventually have created them

14:32 <Althego> the triangle things?

14:32 <packbart> otoh, I don't use the props (yet)

14:32 <packbart> I don't build planes

14:32 <packbart> Althego: and the rectangular plates

14:32 Daz has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]

14:32 <Althego> the point is, the props have infinite delta v in atmosphere

14:32 <Althego> yes i never needed those

14:33 <packbart> a 2.5mx2.5m is a good base for a rover base

14:33 Daz has joined #KSPOfficial

14:33 <Althego> but i wouldnt be able to build a car looking rover. i tried several times, they turn out hideous every time

14:33 <packbart> example: https://formularfetischisten.de/~packbart/temp/kspr.jpg

14:33 <Althego> i would just skip that in this case

14:34 <Althego> the cabin is enough for a base

14:34 <packbart> well, ok, it doesn't really look like a "car". but it handles Mun and Minmus well enough

14:34 Daz has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]

14:34 <packbart> the robotic joints are a bit of a let-down, though. https://formularfetischisten.de/~packbart/temp/kspr1.jpg

14:34 Daz has joined #KSPOfficial

14:34 <Althego> hehe

14:35 <Althego> why are there such gaps?

14:35 <packbart> I don't know. They just happen over time

14:35 <packbart> Robotics don't last long

14:36 <packbart> (from what I've read, the Infernal Robotics mod does have similar problems, too)

17:25 <Mat2ch> and that's why others test on clean stands ;)

17:26 <Althego> doubly interesting

17:27 <Althego> 2 nm in 2024?

17:27 <Althego> but i though we get 5 nm in 2022

17:27 <Althego> and 3 nm is a bit delayed

17:27 <Althego> 2 nm is even a step after that

17:28 <Althego> so those shiny things flying in all direction turned out to be a hazard

17:28 <Althego> at least no actual problem with the ship

17:34 <Althego> i hope that video comes out soon https://twitter.com/Erdayastronaut/status/1328566408565968897/photo/1

17:37 <Althego> hehehe https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1328728296587227143

17:38 <Althego> also by 2024 intel might switch to 10 nm :)

17:40 <umaxtu> assuming they don't switch to TSMC

17:40 <Althego> and he dodged the question about the starship progress report

17:40 <Althego> again

17:41 <Althego> the only way for intel to do that is to sell its fabs to tsmc

17:42 <Althego> because somebody needs to produce that volume

17:44 <Mat2ch> Althego: the nanometer game is a fraud anyways. It's just marketing

17:44 <Althego> i know

17:44 <Althego> i just signifies a process change

17:44 <Althego> der8auer showed that the intel and amd transistors are the samesize :)

17:47 <umaxtu> personally, I suspect Intel is making noise about moving to TSMC to try to get the US Gooberment to give them money for "national security"

17:47 <Althego> just take it from profits. they are making a load of money even now

17:49 <umaxtu> why decrease your profits to do something when you can convince the gooberment to pick up the tab?

17:52 <Althego> exactly because of capitalism. not their money

22:51 <raptop> ..

22:56 <packbart> so, nobody was watching the Vega launch? I just learned that it failed because of a wiring error. check your cabling! :)

22:56 <packbart> ( https://spaceflightnow.com/2020/11/17/arianespace-traces-cause-of-vega-launch-failure-to-human-error/ )

22:57 <packbart> "Engineers concluded that cables leading to thrust vector control actuators on the upper stage were inverted, apparently a mistake from the assembly of the upper stage engine"

22:57 <deadmind> damn it, another "installed IMU upside down"-type failure

22:57 <deadmind> how do their tests not catch that?

22:59 <packbart> how do their plugs don't have polarity notches?

23:00 <packbart> but yeah, one might imagine the actuators are tested before launch to check if "move left" moves it to the correct left

23:27 <Mod9000> Hello, Qubyte

23:28 <Qubyte> i heard that anything inside of farings, even open ended ones, would not have any drag

23:31 <Qubyte> is this true or not?
