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

RurouniDonut. — Is that with a long flight plan?
<discord-_>
Transparent_Elemental. — and i just realized that i didn't specified *what* orbits
<discord-_>
Transparent_Elemental. — orbits of other celestial bodies of course, especially the moons of gas giants

egg. — @ferram4 Does FAR ever apply torques directly (via AddTorque) or only forces? And do you know whether stock aerodynamics does?

ferram4. — @egg FAR should add torques directly to handle the situation of a torque with a net zero force. Check AeroPartModule, I think that's where the code is
<discord-_>
ferram4. — I don't know about stock. I think it does in some cases, but only for specialized modules
<discord-_>
ferram4. — @egg At least that's my guess. Haven't looked at stock aero in awhile. Take a look at the command pods and heatshields, if any parts would have that it would be those

bofh453. — > @Butcher nah German *ü* is [y] like french *u*
<discord-_>
bofh453. — yep, I've managed to mess this up when thinking about it more than a few times
<discord-_>
bofh453. — (amusingly enough it's one of the few things I'm more likely to get right when *not* thinking about it than when I am).
<discord-_>
egg. — @bofh453 mess this up in de or fr

Butcher. — We're out of Europe now, so maybe I need to refuse to speak anything but English. 😕
<discord-_>
egg. — @Butcher what about welsh and scottish gaelic,
<discord-_>
Butcher. — No no no, St George crosses all round.
<discord-_>
egg. — @ferram4 yeah it looks like stock doesn't use torques in the main aerodynamics path (which is good because that path is a mess because it doesn't use the census of nonconservative forces)
