raptop changed the topic of #principia to: READ THE FAQ: http://goo.gl/gMZF9H; The current version is Fréchet. We currently target 1.5.1, 1.6.1, and 1.7.x. <scott_manley> anyone that doubts the wisdom of retrograde bop needs to get the hell out | https://xkcd.com/323/ | <egg> calculating the influence of lamont on Pluto is a bit silly… | <egg> also 4e16 m * 2^-52 is uncomfortably large

lpg. — Would a per-vessel cap on history "size" be a meaningful concept? (i.e. something that would get hit faster for those boring sats than for interesting vessels)
<discord->
egg. — @lpg if that solved the problem, there would be no problem to start with
<discord->
egg. — the problem here is that boring vessels need lots of space

egg. — because they look interesting for the fairly simple downsampling method that we apply (and the general-purpose lossless compression of the save doesn't stand a chance obviously)
<discord->
egg. — we would need some way of taking advantage of their boringness
<discord->
lpg. — right. so cap that space, the boring vessels hit it faster
<discord->
egg. — they don't
<discord->
egg. — interesting vessels are also interestings
<discord->
egg. — interesting vessels are also interesting/ (edited)

egg. — if you have Cassini, it does lots of orbits, those aren't going to downsample any better than your LEO sat's under the current scheme
<discord->
lpg. — ah
<discord->
egg. — but you want to be able to visualize Cassini's orbits, and your always-the-same LEO sat not so much
<discord->
Airhead. — does principia affect how planes fly in KSP in any way?
<discord->
Airhead. — maybe how they fall at low velocity?
<discord->
Airhead. — or perhaps at a higher altitude like 20km
<discord->
Sir Mortimer. — I think while in atmosphere, principia yields to KSP
<UmbralRaptor>
integration between the ferram4 and egg sectors is nontrivial

lpg. — so... with Fréchet, is it normal that bringing up the Esc menu in map mode makes the camera go nuts? like it's very rapidly spinning around some point
<discord->
TheRealWiwaxia. — I'd say it yields to FAR as well

Acer_Saccharum. — As far as I know the spinning is *intended* as I doesn't affect gameplay
<discord->
egg. — @lpg see the change log; known issue
<discord->
egg. — UmbralRaptor: yes but that problem was resolved a while back
<discord->
egg. — @Sir Mortimer not exactly; we manage the vessel as soon as it lifts off, atmosphere or not; aerodynamic forces are treated like engine forces
<discord->
egg. — @Sir Mortimer we used to not touch vessels that were in the atmosphere; we changed to the current system in Δημόκριτος, completing the reunification of the @ferram4 and @egg sectors https://github.com/mockingbirdnest/Principia/pull/1865
<discord->
egg. — the roadmap for that effort was the *Ten-point plan for the unification of the egg and ferram4 sector*
