Can you put them in an imgur album

Now I'm not at the pc
<Sigma88>
Sure
<Sigma88>
I'll make a pastebin with dropbx links
<Sigma88>
So if I edit a picture I don't need to reupload
<Sigma88>
Ill make an album once I have the final ones

Cool feature idea: A plugin that reads the current real world time and sets that as the start date for any new save files.
<GregroxMun>
So like for SASS, if I started a save today, all of the planets would be where they should be today in the sky.
<Sigma88>
I probably can do that
<Sigma88>
not 100% sure
<GregroxMun>
would have to be an optional setting though, or else it might be confusing for people starting several saves and trying to remember when phase angles happen or whatever.
<Sigma88>
of course
<Sigma88>
the cool thing about SASS is that you can set the start year
<GregroxMun>
What if you tried a version of the JPE flag but with one of the navball symbols
<Sigma88>
where would I put the symbols?
<GregroxMun>
MREKa isn't on the list btw
<GregroxMun>
put the symbol instead of the red hexagon

or red circle as it may be

I have to decide how many stars I'll do
<GregroxMun>
I figure I'll do at least one, maybe two, for each spectral type (either a late, mid, or early type) in the main sequence
<GregroxMun>
But I'd also like to do some for every luminosity class.
<GregroxMun>
Supergiants, Giants, Subgiants, The Main Sequence (Dwarfs), Subdwarfs, White Dwarfs.
<GregroxMun>
Subdwarfs only go from G to M, so they'd really just be a resize and a change of the way the rim looks.
<GregroxMun>
Oh, I forgot Bright Giants, between subgiants and dwarfs.
<GregroxMun>
They go from late-B to mid-K
<GregroxMun>
I'll just start with doing one star for each spectral type in the main sequence, and extend from there.
<GregroxMun>
And I'll include a config to put the stock system around each ofc.
<GregroxMun>
Something I might do for RevSSS is an optional config that preserves the strange size of Kerbol by calculating the size it needs to be for the yellow temperature to have the same luminosity as a scaled down sun (so I dont have to scale the orbits at all) and then moving the Mun so it does eclipses
<GregroxMun>
Do you know why stars need to Coronae?
<Sigma88>
two?
<GregroxMun>
yes
<Sigma88>
no
<GregroxMun>
oops
<GregroxMun>
oh dang
<Sigma88>
?
<GregroxMun>
I wanted to know
<Sigma88>
have you tried with only 1
<Sigma88>
?
<GregroxMun>
no
<Sigma88>
try
<Sigma88>
maybe it works
<GregroxMun>
later
<Sigma88>
I always copied ka code
<GregroxMun>
omg
<GregroxMun>
I calculated the luminosity for my M class star
<GregroxMun>
in solar luminosities, it's 0.001337.
<Sigma88>
yup
<Sigma88>
it changes drastically
<GregroxMun>
Not the order of magnitude is cool
<GregroxMun>
the number itself
<Sigma88>
lol
<Sigma88>
-.-
<GregroxMun>
1337
<GregroxMun>
:D
<GregroxMun>
I wonder if there's a way to calculate visual luminosity
TonyC has joined #Kopernicus
<GregroxMun>
I assume the T^4*R^2 relationship is for bolometric luminosity on all wavelengths.
<Sigma88>
I remember there was a limit below which you use one formula
<Sigma88>
and above you use another one
<GregroxMun>
AFAIK, Bolometric ≈ Visual after the temperature of ~5800 K, because at that point the wavelengths of light that we can see raise at the same rate as the higher wavelengths we can't
<GregroxMun>
but that might be bullshit
<Sigma88>
I think that's a bit overkill anyways
<GregroxMun>
Isn't someone here in some relatively advanced class about Stars?
<GregroxMun>
Not for me
<Sigma88>
I mean, I like to research stuff and I get you, but at a certain point even if you get it slightly wrong in ksp it's not the end of the world
<Sigma88>
:D
<GregroxMun>
I know but what if I think its fun to get things as right as possible.
<Sigma88>
sure
gyrfalcon has joined #Kopernicus

I read the afterword essay of Hal Clemet's Mission of Gravity. I'm paraphrasing, but he thinks of writing hard science fiction as a game. The author's goal is to get as little wrong as possible, and the reader's goal is to find as many scientific inconsistencies as possible.
<Sigma88>
I just meant that if you can't find the right solution, it's already a pretty good one
<Sigma88>

Hello
<GregroxMun>
to make, that is
<GregroxMun>
o/
<GregroxMun>
Sure most people won't care if I use an actual color-temperature relationship to define the colors of my stars, but that just means I'm that much further ahead of the game. :P
<GregroxMun>
It also helps me to have a better understanding of the objects themselves, in an effort to replicate them accurately.
<Sigma88>
oh, using the color-temperature relationship is totally a great idea
<Sigma88>
I'm just saying, the standard relationship you have already found will be fine in case you can't find a more precise one
<GregroxMun>
Well I was using that as an example for all of the extra stuff I do.
<Sigma88>
most of the stuff I do for my mods will probably go unnoticed
<GregroxMun>
That's probably true.
<GregroxMun>
But it's fun, and that's why we do it
<Sigma88>
yup
<GregroxMun>
what is Insolation?
<UmbralRaptor>
Amount of sunlight hitting an area.
<GregroxMun>
Why would it be a property of the stock Sun's light then? :/
<GregroxMun>
Does it scale with luminosity or sqrt Luminosity or what?
<GregroxMun>
Does it even do anything in-game?
<UmbralRaptor>
Not sure in-game. I'm mainly familiar with it as a physical property. =\
<Sigma88>
insolation means "insolation at home planet"
<GregroxMun>
ok
<Sigma88>
it's the amount of light that arrives to kerbin
<Sigma88>
iirc
<GregroxMun>
So that should scale with the sqrt of luminosity
<Sigma88>
no idea
<GregroxMun>
I'm pretty sure it does
<Sigma88>
luminosity is luminosity at home
<Sigma88>
so the percieved luminosity at kerbin
<Sigma88>
iirc
<GregroxMun>
Which should scale linearly?
<GregroxMun>
Whatever, few people will notice if I get it wrong
<Sigma88>
lol
<Sigma88>
I think luminosity goes with Ec/s
<Sigma88>
and insolation with overheating
<Sigma88>
but not sure

<Thomas>
Also, it is used in calculations related to the atmosphere of planets
<GregroxMun>
Not ones done in real time by the game though, right? Things that are defined in the config only. Right?
<Thomas>
The calculations are done every physics tick
<gyrfalcon>
Hey if I want to edit the Sun do I do the Kopernicus:FOR[NAME] or @Body and @Properties and stuff like that?
<GregroxMun>
I thought the atmosphere curves did all of the calculations for temperature and stuff, regardless of what the sun's config said.
<GregroxMun>
But I guess that doesen't work for airless bodies
<GregroxMun>
gyrfalcon, give me a moment.
<gyrfalcon>
ok
<Thomas>
GregroxMun: It calculates a multiplier for solar flux
<GregroxMun>
For the M-Dwarf Sun mod, I'll have to move Gilly, Mun, and Minmus. Otherwise these objects are outside of their parent body's SOI! Bop and Pol and Ike should be moved for "stability" too
<gyrfalcon>
Yes, but I just want the Star to work first
<GregroxMun>
talking about my own stuff
<gyrfalcon>
Ok
<GregroxMun>
I'll probably tidally lock Eve, Kerbin, and Dres. Eeloo and Moho will be 3:2 spin-locked, and Duna will remain locked to Ike.
<gyrfalcon>
One last question: Is there a calculator or equation to find the pressureCurve/tempuratureCurve of atmospheres?

Yes.

<GregroxMun>

Any clue what units?
<UmbralRaptor>
Any default listed?
<GregroxMun>
0.15 iirc
<UmbralRaptor>
odd
<GregroxMun>
random thought: Habitable earth-like planets could support more moons if the planets orbit stars that are more luminous than our sun.
<GregroxMun>
Their hill spheres would be bigger
<Sigma88>
more moons? like mars? :D
<GregroxMun>
No, more big moons
<gyrfalcon>
Um...does anybody know how to find the adiabatic index?
<GregroxMun>
it's a chemistry thing I think
<GregroxMun>
related to atmospheric composition
<GregroxMun>
I could be wrong
<gyrfalcon>
Hmmm, well I have to get it for a star
<GregroxMun>
stock value should be fine
<GregroxMun>
and it would get filled in automatically.
<Sigma88>
stars have a placeholder atmosphere, you don't need to bother with it
<Sigma88>
just leave the standard stock values
<GregroxMun>
I don't think it's placeholder actually.
<gyrfalcon>
Wait, wait
<gyrfalcon>
I found a chart
<GregroxMun>
But you don't need to mess with it
<Sigma88>
it's for overheating when getting too close
<gyrfalcon>
hmmm, so I can just leave the Atmosphere part out entirely?
<GregroxMun>
yes
<gyrfalcon>
That makes my life SO much easier then!
<gyrfalcon>
And If I want to replace the sun, I don't need an Orbit part either, correct?
<GregroxMun>
correct
<Sigma88>
don't change the name of the sun
<GregroxMun>
use cbNameLater to change the name
<GregroxMun>

KSP needs to have a Body with name = Sun

In some of the pics it looks like it's just Kerbin, but if you look closely you can see the other planets.
<gyrfalcon>
Also, is shadowStrength important? What should I set it too?
<GregroxMun>
it's just how dark the shadows should be
<GregroxMun>
I usually set it to 0.9 or 1 because I like it that way
<gyrfalcon>
Well, I have a bright star
<GregroxMun>
Set to 1
<GregroxMun>
default is 0.7 or so
<gyrfalcon>
Ok so 0.2 is ill definied and 1 is well defined, or the other way around?
<GregroxMun>
http://imgur.com/a/ifcau Red Dwarf Sun, up close. Colors defined with an actual Temperature-To-RGB calculator. This is what a star like Proxima Centauri would actually look like.

Pickup line but for if you want to be friends with someone: Hello there are you a star with the spectral class of M8V? Because you're really cool but you still light up people's worlds.
<GregroxMun>
Pickup line for if you want to be in a relationship with someone: Hey baby are you a star with spectral class of G2V? Because you're far hotter than average and you light up my world.
<gyrfalcon>
whats the difference between ambientLightColor and sunLightColor?
<GregroxMun>
ambient light is the shadow, sun light is the light
<gyrfalcon>
I see
<GregroxMun>
set ambientLight to 0,0,0,1 or leave blank
<GregroxMun>
You don't have to define everything, it gets set to default for the Sun.
<GregroxMun>
note: you should set sunLightColor and scaledSunColor to the same
<GregroxMun>
scaledSunlightColor
<gyrfalcon>
Ok
<gyrfalcon>
What about sunLensFlareColor? I reckon white or light blue would be good for what Im doing?
<GregroxMun>

I need to stop fooling around with the M-Dwarf Kerbol System and move on to just the stars for other spectral types.
<GregroxMun>
Maybe I'll release a full-blown M-Dwarf Kerbol System with planets modified to have ice caps and all that jazz.
<GregroxMun>
For the project I should also make some atmosphere configs for a standard blue atmosphere to represent the change in color that you'd have.
<GregroxMun>
Without blue in the star's spectrum, there would be no blue skies.
<GregroxMun>
And since the yellow and orange are scattered out of most of the sky, you would expect the sky to be rather dark.
<GregroxMun>
Maybe dim orange-yellow.
<GregroxMun>
For stars hotter than 5800 K, this shouldn't matter because blue stars still have plenty of red, so they probably have sunsets which look similar to Earth's. Maybe a tad more deep blue or violet. Such a shame we can't define both normal and sunset color instead of having just one color that turns to complimentary at sunset

Apparently Proxima Centauri should appear 34 times dimmer than the sun when it orbits in the habitable zone. That's because of how much lower visual luminosity is compared to bolometric
<SigmaTrain>
There is no way to explain what it does
<gyrfalcon>
ok
<SigmaTrain>
The brightnesscurve
<SigmaTrain>
But if you change the radius of the star
<SigmaTrain>
You should change the sunAU by the same parameter
<gyrfalcon>
so like x2 for a x2 size star compared to stock?
<SigmaTrain>
Exactly
<SigmaTrain>
If you want a brighter star use a multiplier a tad higher for sunAU

If I would like to speed up the orbit of a planet without increasing the gravity of whatever it orbits or its distance from whatever it orbits, how would I do that?
<GregroxMun>
You can't.
<GregroxMun>
It breaks physics.
<GregroxMun>
You wouldn't ever be able to rendezvous with the planet.
<GregroxMun>
When I get around to G2V I'm gonna make a pull request to change the RSS sun to be more realistic.

<GregroxMun>
That doesn't seem that unreasonable actually.
gyrfalcon has joined #Kopernicus

it would be spectral type of F4 or F5.

<SigmaTrain>
Ah you meant realistic cycle?
<SigmaTrain>
Good luck :)
<GregroxMun>
My Kerbol (K-type star) has a peak wavelength in visible slightly-orange red. But its color is pale yellow.
<GregroxMun>
You could cheat and have the Sun's sidereal rotation period be nearly a year (enough that its synodic period is 11 years) and have all the sunspots on one side.
<SigmaTrain>
Isn't the peak of our sun on the green region?
<Qboid>
GregroxMun meant to say: Really great, bro
<GregroxMun>
that works and doesn't sound as awkward
<GregroxMun>
emitColor0 = red. emotColor1 = blue Sunspot = green

how to use it

it's not in the kittopia export

Yup, ScaledVersion { Light { sunFlare = <path to unity3d asset bundle>:<name of the object inside the bundle> } } iirc
<Thomas>
GregroxMun: Because I cant export it
<Thomas>
I cant even load it on my own
<Thomas>
I need to serialize it with Unity
<GregroxMun>
is sunFlare a texture?
<Thomas>
No, a Unity3d Flare object
<GregroxMun>
well dang I don't know how to use that.
<Thomas>
If it was a texture I wouldnt do all the crap to load it from an asset bundle :)

Make a flare texture like the stock one and I will export it

I dont know if this is entirely realistic, but my new star is going to be slightly purpler because of oxygen-based plasma
<GregroxMun>
That's unrealistic.

The light you'd get from plasma would be so miniscule compared to the light, it would make no difference.

no that's

<GregroxMun>
O class stars have no detectable emission lines in their spectra. Though they do have the strongest Hydrogen absorbtion lines. If anything that'd make them just ever so slightly greener. (It doesn't though because it's so tiny a difference)
<GregroxMun>
Also oxygen plasma is green
* UmbralRaptor
blinks.
<UmbralRaptor>
Stars are very much dominated by blackbody emission, yes.
<GregroxMun>
why
<GregroxMun>
If I was right then you wouldn't have blinked
<GregroxMun>
well not typed that you did anyway
<GregroxMun>
so I expect a further explanation of how I'm wrong?
<UmbralRaptor>
O stars can have emission lines, since they sometimes have lots of mass loss.
<UmbralRaptor>
Nor importantly, their absorption lines (while limited) are note of things like ionized helium.
<UmbralRaptor>
Hydrogen peaks with A stars, and is basically all ionized with O.
<UmbralRaptor>
s/Nor /More /
<GregroxMun>
Oh wait I'm thinking of the lowest hydrogen lines

<gyrfalcon>
Oh so what plasma is purple then? Nitrogen?
<GregroxMun>
Hydrogen plasma is purple iirc
<gyrfalcon>
Oh
<gyrfalcon>
Well, from a sort of realistic but not perspective, the outer layers of O stars are hydrogen iirc
<gyrfalcon>
It only partially makes sense ;)
<GregroxMun>
WR stars like the one i recall you're trying to make do have a strange spectrum.
<GregroxMun>
It's not actually "O" class
<gyrfalcon>
Yeah, thats my mistake
<GregroxMun>
The nebula around a WR star would be red/purple for hydrogen plasma I suspect, with the blue star in the middle. I can't find numbers for the size of the nebula, but I figure it's something under but not too far from a lightyear maybe?

<GregroxMun>
The corona is faint and white, the object in KSP is bright and yellow.
<GregroxMun>
It resembles a chromosphere sort of because it's short and colorful, but the chromosphere is specifically purple plasma IRL, unless I'm mistaken

I've finished the config, I think it's time for some kittopia tweaking

which color is it the one that gives you a weird result?
<gyrfalcon>
I think its the emitColor's because I can fix them in kittopia but they turn out as much different numbers
<Sigma88>
your emitcolors are 1,1,1,1
