16:28 <discord-> egg. — yes

16:28 <discord-> egg. — persistent rotation gets the physics wrong, these equations are not that trivial

16:30 <discord-> egg. — Anyway, Ferrari is out

16:31 <discord-> egg. — (a few hours early, because I don't feel like getting up at 5 in the morning to publish that release :-p)

17:09 <discord-> egg. — @Sir Mortimer by the way, we'd be interested in those mocks, pleroy would like to take a break from the rotation stuff and UI questions would be an option

20:35 <discord-> egg. — @Butcher oh I completely forgot to review your design proposal, sorry about that

20:39 <discord-> egg. — @Butcher I think it looks good; these functions sound like they will always make sense, in that we can always give them a sensible value, even if we make the flight plan and the manoeuvres more complex (say add SRBs with thrust profiles or whatnot)

20:58 <discord-> Sir Mortimer. — no, that's bollocks

20:58 <discord-> Sir Mortimer. — !principia

20:58 <discord-> RO Bot. — Download the latest version of Principia from https://github.com/mockingbirdnest/Principia/blob/master/README.md; make sure to download the right one for the version of KSP that you are using (otherwise the game will crash on load).

21:03 <discord-> Sir Mortimer. — @egg suppose I have a list of issues/ideas/bugs of questionable merit, do you prefer one list in, like, a file, or do you prefer a separate GitHub issue for each?

21:09 discord- has joined #principia

21:10 <discord-> egg. — @Sir Mortimer separate issue for each, that way we can triage them separately

21:10 <discord-> egg. — issues are cheap

21:11 <discord-> Sir Mortimer. — ok

21:11 <discord-> Sir Mortimer. — i prefer it that way, too. and btw im

21:12 <discord-> Sir Mortimer. — i prefer it that way, too. and btw I'm not going to hold a grudge if you close them without comment 😉 (edited)

21:16 <discord-> egg. — @Sir Mortimer the bug you opened about the window being open in strange places is certainly useful, it kinda shows that I never play career :-p

21:30 <discord-> Sir Mortimer. — lol

21:31 <discord-> Sir Mortimer. — btw regarding UI... what are you using to draw it? is there a limit as to which widgets can and cannot be used?

21:35 <discord-> egg. — we're using the eggstremely shitty function-call-based framework

21:36 <discord-> egg. — we could switch to something else, we could build complicated things if needed
