01:51 <Izaya> before I installed Parallax 2 the 580 had no trouble

02:17 <raptop> Magnificent desolation, now in the process of becoming a base

02:31 <umaxtu> dat look gud!

02:33 <Izaya> The ISRU plant on the left is making enough fuel for a round-trip to orbit every 6 hours with the lander there, every 4 with another lander design I have

02:34 <umaxtu> I'm just mucking around in LEO in RP1. the starting solar panels are sooooo shitty

02:35 <Izaya> Not sure whether I'm more inclined to build a 3D printer base module like I've got the habitat module or a fuel lander so I can take fuel back up the gravity well

02:37 <Izaya> A science lab would be nice but I don't have any in a convenient shape for a base

03:55 <packbart> isn't there a lab-dome in SSPXr?

04:34 <Izaya> I have a PXL lab unlocked, but I'm not sure how I'd launch it

04:34 <Izaya> With a big rocket, I guess.

04:39 <Izaya> Could also try with the Mk2 science lab, but I don't seem to have ... any luck with mk2 stuff

04:41 <Izaya> s/mk2/vertical landing/

06:02 <Izaya> going to use an entire HDD as swap so KSP's memory leaks just get written to disk and forgotten forever

06:03 <RoboFreak> hehe

06:59 <Althego> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BntCkCRc55c

06:59 <Althego> bit more than a minute

07:43 <Althego> firefly alpha made it into orbit, waiting for the circularization burn

07:59 <darsie> yay

08:00 <XXCoder> wow

08:00 <XXCoder> what a huge cone

08:00 <XXCoder> they never show that

08:01 <XXCoder> I would LOVE to take that video and show it to 1960s people working at nasa lol

08:02 <XXCoder> they would be stunned on stations and rocket

08:05 <darsie> Stage sep was sparky.

08:06 <XXCoder> if you had chance to take and show exactly one video to NASA of 1960s, must be rockets, which one would you select?

08:06 <XXCoder> me, probably one with good landing of first stage

08:11 <Althego> the dual landing of the falcon heavy boosters

08:12 <Althego> that is still awesome

08:13 <XXCoder> nice

08:52 <Izaya> Wonder if I could mod in a combination construction port and klaw, for unplanned rapid welding

08:53 <Althego> rapid unplanned assembly?

08:53 <Izaya> exactly

08:53 <Izaya> sometimes you need to attach a probe core to a spacecraft that just doesn't have anywhere for one to go, y'know?

09:05 <Izaya> So anyway, what I'm saying is I had to send a kerbal to Mun orbit to recover the lander from my first Mun mission. https://shadowkat.net/tmp/20a2.jpg

13:33 <packbart> Unkerballed EVA Construction

13:34 <Althego> (hu)manned, (ker)balled

13:36 <packbart> don't kick a Kerball

13:38 <raptop> kerballs are those things you launch with the debug menu to blow up parts, buildings, etc, right?

14:05 <packbart> Kerbals whacked by Kerballs at KSC. Film at 11.

14:06 <packbart> hm. wait. K-days aren't long enough

14:39 <SporkWitch> Izaya: re: awkward probe placement, while imperfect, you can use a radial attachment part from the structural tab. I've done that to attach a probe core to my stations without blocking kerbal movement (since I use CLS). It can be done on ships too, though you have to make sure to have it rotated right and set control mode to "forward." Still puts the control point slightly off-centre, but

14:40 <SporkWitch> still quite manageable

20:34 <idot> pp

20:39 <Pinkbeast> Quite so.
