<SporkWitch> 3x mk1 liquid fuel fuselages, 2x nervs, 1x R120 RCS tank, an adv reaction wheel, and some of the 2-strength unidirectional RCS ports for lateral control only (plus a grabbing unit): it can successfully maneuver my fuel module of 6x x200-32 tanks, 12x R750 RCS tanks, plus a bunch of structural fusealages, docking ports, and reaction wheels (i suspect those are a big part of the help, but i forgot a
<SporkWitch> solar panel or RTG and I still have 363 charge left and it's almost in position lol)
<bees> SporkWitch: You switch your speedometer to scientific notation again. Your kerbals are mashed into something amazingly like mystery goo.
<SporkWitch> the bees got to his brain again lol
<SporkWitch> watched some of the videos on KSP2 and i lost it when that chick said kerbals are like warhammer 40k orks. She's absolutely right: this stuff runs on pure belief! lol
<raptop> Pacifist orks!

<SporkWitch> is there a good way to just automatically have docked vessels draw fuel once they dock? or do you just have to manually select a tank and transfer?
<Azander> Not that I know of

<SporkWitch> added an RTG just to be safe in case i'm not paying enough attention to the power, but it worked quite nicely even maneuvering that massive fuel module (with full tanks)
<SporkWitch> can probably use it for asteroids, too, it's got 4km/s dV without payload, plenty to rendesvous, though dunno what the mass is on the average asteroid
<SporkWitch> important semantic question that's driving me nuts because I can't find any answer, let alone a good one: what's the difference between injection and transfer? what little I find seem to use them interchangeably
<raptop> I guess you could use injection for entering something that isn't a transfer orbit
<SporkWitch> problem is i find NASA sources referring to trans-lunar injection! lol

<LunchBot> darkie: Your finger slips, and you type ";fission" instead of ";mission." Your reputation underflows, and suddenly the really nice contracts are available again.
<darkie> .mission
<LunchBot> darkie: You pull out your slide-rule to calculate the delta-v of the Resonance Cascade as a single-stage-to-Xen. You successfully test rocket the fire.
<darkie> .mission
<LunchBot> darkie: You make a Goat Simulator addon for KSP. You find Kashyyyk was in the Kerbal system the whole time.
<darkie> .mission
<LunchBot> darkie: Lacking better power options, you cover your rocket in Z-400 batteries. The IRC channel doesn't stop talking about the ensuing hilarity for *days*.
<darkie> .mission
<LunchBot> darkie: You attempt to create a mod to add Lagrange points to the game. ...........Waiting for Power Processing.
<Althego> heh as if there would be any conversation here for days
<FLHerne> Could be true
<FLHerne> One reply every few hours
<bees> darkie: You invent a drive that runs on broken promises and shattered dreams. There is a long silence.
<bees> darkie: You confuse yaw with yawn. You discover too late that those "aerospikes" were actually shock cone intakes all this time, and crash hard into Eve.
<bees> darkie: You build a ship for the stated purpose of outrunning its own mass. Hawking radiation. Hawking radiation everywhere.
<bees> darkie: You re-roof the SPH in solar cells. Your launch is scrubbed because someone put a boat in the way.
<darkie> k
<Mat2ch> well, my vacation is over, I have to work
<bees> darkie: You build a shrine on Bop to the mighty Kraken. You are now sending a rescue mission for your previous three rescue missions.
<Mat2ch> well, copy git repositories.

<SporkWitch> Mat2ch: *pushes glasses up on nose* aktually, it's called cloning.
<Mat2ch> in this case it was more like "Clicking on Create Repository, setting a new url in the git config of the repositories and pushing them"
<SporkWitch> that's just cloning, with extra steps! :P
<Mat2ch> weeeeeellllll
<Mat2ch> it was a copy
<SporkWitch> i was going for the rick&morty reference :P

<Deddly> .nextlunch
<LunchBot> Deddly: Beans on toast.
<UmbralRaptop> technically that's a lunch
<Althego> why just technically?
<Deddly> Beans on toast rocks
<Althego> never tried it but sounds good to me
<Deddly> It's a basic, throw-together meal that takes less time to make than to eat. What's not to love about that?
<SporkWitch> like, baked beans?

<FLHerne> Yes
<SporkWitch> does sound tasty
<SporkWitch> simple scrambled eggs on toast is also excellent, especially if you leave them a little wet to soften up the toast
jazzkutya has joined #KSPOfficial
<FLHerne> but then you can't just pick up the toast and put it in your mouth with the eggs on, because it sogs
<FLHerne> .nextlunch add scrambled eggs on toast
<LunchBot> FLHerne: Added lunch: Scrambled eggs on toast
<Althego> next launch is in about 6 hours 50 minutes

<SporkWitch> does having an extra pair of radial separators help push things away, or since the outer stage is only really "attached" to the first separator, only that one has its force applied?
