<kubi>
that is actually a nice line on one's stone
<kubi>
"killed in a space ship accident"
<kubi>
one can be famous in the village
<Althego>
at the moment dying in a spaceship accident is slightly more likely than being hit by a meteorite
<Althego>
less than 20 people died in a flying spaceship. there are a lot more which are related, like apollo 1 during ground testing, or training accidents
<Althego>
oh wait, actually less, in related fatalities
<Althego>
that piece is rather far off. but it may have been moving horizontally when it exploded

welll..... thunderf00t pulled this out of a dark place. even if he is right, he, just like anybody else in the public, doesnt have the faintest idea if the common bulkhead between the two tanks broke or not
Judge_Dedd has quit [Quit: Uh oh...]
<FLHerne>
I think the sharp detonation and the way the midsection just doesn't exist anymore do strongly imply it
* FLHerne
hasn't seen the thunderf00t thing
<FLHerne>
His last SpaceX thing had a lot of errors
<Althego>
this one was on voice of thunder
<Mat2ch>
tbh: Almost everything landed in such a way that almost nothing major was damagaged...
<Althego>
which was just a stroke of luck
<Mat2ch>
unlucky with the landing, lucky with the RUD.
<Althego>
there shouldnt be a place for luck
<Althego>
move it far away from the facilities
<Althego>
probably not enough space, somebody mentioned some animels that cant be disturbed
prefixcactus has quit [Ping timeout: 189 seconds]
<Mat2ch>
well, they would have to fly inland probably and nobody wants that...
<Althego>
or just move at least the landing site a bit along the shore
prefixcactus has joined #KSPOfficial
<Mat2ch>
Probably everything there is bird sanctuary.
<Mat2ch>
Land it on the water! ;)
<Althego>
that would be a solution
<Mat2ch>
A mobile amphibious landing plattform.
<Althego>
just few hundred meters away, not that much
<Althego>
what they actually have
<Althego>
it is just not ready
<Mat2ch>
don't say it.
<Mat2ch>
We take a few of those heavy lift vehicles, build a landing plattform ontop of it
<Mat2ch>
and for every landing it gets moved to the beach.
<Mat2ch>
:D
<Mat2ch>
If they stick the landing they can then immediately return it to the launch pad

how long do you think it'll take to finish SN15? I say at least a month
<Althego>
heh
<Althego>
he said a few days
hnOsmium0001 has joined #KSPOfficial
<Althego>
they finish them quite fast
<Althego>
but the launch still takes a lot of time
<Althego>
static fires, engine changes

What is it? SSTO?

single stage to orbit

single stage to ocean

cameron county has a Debris Hotline on the SpaceX page now. :D
<raptop>
nice
<Althego>
hehehe, i am evil. a coworker above age 50 had an issue with our communication client, constant crashes. i said "insert unravel sung by ollie here" as a response. he looked it up and cant stop listening to it
<raptop>
Apparently zombies are good at singing
<flayer>
hrm, can't manage more than 2150 m/s
<Althego>
if they try to eat cabbage
<darsie>
flayer: how?
<darsie>
I got 1750 with a Rapier.
<flayer>
darsie, by switching to the nervs and burning the skipper in the cargo bay
<flayer>
i think i should dump some oxidizer
<Althego>
at least now we have the dump valve thingie
<packbart>
it might even give you some additional mm/s :)
<Mat2ch>
some birds are whistling that we might get a Wintergatan video today...
<FLHerne>
darsie: Thank you, I know what SSTO *means*...
<darsie>
yw :)
<darsie>
ahh, ok :)
<Althego>
Mat2ch: it is wednesday after all
<raptop>
(granted, the typically early attempts are Single Stage To Oops)
<Althego>
hehe, when it cant get past the sound barrier :)
<Althego>
or explodes because of overheating
<Althego>
or the nuke just doesnt have enough thrust to pus it into orbit
<raptop>
And sometimes it can't get off the runway or has early stability issues
<Althego>
hehe zigzagging on the runway
<Althego>
and then crashing into a building
<flayer>
i didn't even design this as an ssto
<flayer>
its supposed to be a carrier ship to duna and jool
<flayer>
with the capability of landing as a space shuttle more or less
<flayer>
but then i slapped a pair of whiplashes on it to give it some manueverability
<flayer>
and then i added another pair to see if i could get to orbit on laythe
<flayer>
and now i'm trying to get to orbit on kerbin by replacing its cargo with fuel and a skipper
<Althego>
4 turbojets should be plenty for a middle sized ssto
<flayer>
its a mk3
<Althego>
that is quite big
<flayer>
it was 130 ton fully laden with fuel
<Althego>
fat boy
<flayer>
its got heavy mining equipment on it

start to use some life support mod, then you will see how fat a kerbal is :)
<Althego>
can they get fat with food?
<flayer>
kubi, i'm using snacks
<kubi>
the amount of food, water and air you need to carry for them is enormous
<kubi>
I have not used that
<flayer>
snacks just requires snacks
<kubi>
is it just food?
<flayer>
and you can make snacks out of ore
<flayer>
yeah its a nice simple life support mod
<kubi>
ah
<flayer>
too many resource types is so unnecessary imo
<kubi>
yes
<kubi>
unless you are into colony building
<kubi>
but food-water-oxygen-waste combo is good enough
<flayer>
oh damn
<flayer>
i made it into orbit
<flayer>
but i forgot i had fully loaded the crew compartment
<flayer>
so now i have nobody back at base

oh no phoenix incoming
<raptop>
...did she burn down a village?
<Althego>
i am not sure. but now there is a repopulation program for the village
<flayer>
only 200 days worth of snacks tho.. i'll need to add a habitat for the jool mission

recalls something about needing to do mass murder to visit callie

hehehe, get into the boat shinji

Wow, KSP is just 10 EUR on gog now.
<Althego>
that is even cheaper to what i bought it for
<Althego>
herding villagers seems to be as impossible as herding cats

i dont recommend the gog version, they delay the upgrades

why?

That doesn't make sense.

Beachte bitte, dass du Kerbal Space Program auf GOG.com besitzen musst, um Kerbal Space Program: Breaking Ground UND Kerbal Space Program: Making History kaufen und spielen zu können.
<darsie>
:(
<Althego>
lock in
<darsie>
Still cheaper adding KSP for 10 EUR than buying the DLCs on steam.
<Althego>
some batman games are 75% off

oh no, tomorrow is 1st of aprli

maybe intel admits its 11900k was a joke
