<Dutchy45>
Is there a way to review action groups in flight?
<Althego>
for the two last versions there is
<Althego>
one of the icons in the top right corner
<Althego>
i think it is a wrench
<Dutchy45>
O ok, I haven't updated for ages to keep my game going :) Thanks Althego
<Althego>
since 1.8
<Althego>
so last 3
<Althego>
actually these are mostly minor updates and saves probably will work
<Althego>
lol 1.8 came out in 2019. and it is 4 versions ago
<Dutchy45>
like I said: "for ages" :) I play in bursts. Months go by without me touching the game

hi, Mod9000
<Judge_Dedd>
hello Mod9000
<Mod9000>
How are things?
<Judge_Dedd>
Mod9000 is doing
<raptop>
ah, there we go
<Judge_Dedd>
hi
<Mod9000>
Hello, Judge_Dedd
<Judge_Dedd>
I should remove that comma
<raptop>
huh, I was expecting Mod9000 to be whiling or foring
<Judge_Dedd>
I don't understand
<raptop>
different kinds of loops
<Althego>
hehe whiling or foring
<Althego>
it was puzzling
<Judge_Dedd>
What is "whiling and foring"?
<Althego>
while and for are loop types
<Judge_Dedd>
Are
<Althego>
and if you make verbs of them
<Judge_Dedd>
Aha!
<Althego>
to me they sound like some ancient verbs that are not used anymore
<Judge_Dedd>
Ye olde whiling and foring

<Althego>
and elon is leaking
<Althego>
at least he tweeted that sn10 is going to use all 3 engines for the flip
<Judge_Dedd>
Yeah. I was wondering why they didn't do that.
<Althego>
and if one fails it can still do it with 2. if it doesnt fail it will just turn off the one that helps the least in flipping
<Judge_Dedd>
By only using two, they are negating one of the best advantages of having multiple engines instead of one big one.
<Althego>
but then for landing they want to use the least amount of thrust
<Althego>
so landing needs 2 engines
<Judge_Dedd>
Yeah, otherwise they'd have to throttle too deeply and would flameout
<Althego>
also no starlink today, moved to sunday

The funny part of the "using all three engines while doing the flip" is that a twitter user asked Elon this "why not start all three engines and if one fails you still have backup" and he answered: "We are dumb"
<Mat2ch>
and I wondered if he really meant it or if it was meant ironically
<Mat2ch>
because there could not be enough fuel to run all three engines or the pressure would be too low, etc.
<Judge_Dedd>
I imagine that they are working so fast and making so many quick decisions that they are quite likely to overlook something like that
<Judge_Dedd>
SN10 will have the new tripple-engine flip profile
<Mat2ch>
that's one of the reasons why I think it is important to listen to voices from outside.
<Mat2ch>
Sometimes the best ideas come from bystanders
<Mat2ch>
and Hans Christian Andersen used a childs eyes to see the problem/truth...
<Judge_Dedd>
I want to know if my copper sheet heatsink behind the ceramic tiles would work (the idea being to disperse the heat if a tile cracked or fell off)
<Judge_Dedd>
But I don't know how I would find out if it works
<Mat2ch>
Wouldn't the copper instantly just melt?
sasamj has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity]
<Mat2ch>
you can try it. Take a sheet of copper, place it over a larger sheet of 3 mm stainless steel and get a torch that is as hot as the reentry gases.
<Mat2ch>
but I fear to be effective you need a lot of copper which will add lots of mass
<flayer>
i need to add some mass
<flayer>
not a lot, but some
<Judge_Dedd>
Mat2ch, a block of copper does not melt if you heat one spot with a blowtorch. It conducts the heat so well
<flayer>
if you heat one spot of me with a blowtorch, i will get burnt
<Judge_Dedd>
But as you say, perhaps it needs to be too thick to be effective
<Mat2ch>
Judge_Dedd: That's what I would want to see in an experiment
<Judge_Dedd>
Me too
<flayer>
i don't want to be burnt by a blowtorch
<Judge_Dedd>
But you've never tried
