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

<discord-> A​cer_Saccharum. — is there any way to display a vessel's true longitude?
<discord-> M​yshiko. — What is true longitude? Doesn’t KER show longitude?
<discord-> M​yshiko. — What I saw in KER more or less matched what I saw in Google Earth at that coordinates, so, is it true enough ?

<discord-> A​cer_Saccharum. — Angle with respect to the first point of aries (the direction that the longitude of perigee and longitude of ascending node are measured with respect to)
<discord-> A​cer_Saccharum. — This would be useful for knowing where you are in a circular equatorial orbit
<discord-> l​pg. — huh. a while ago I reported an issue with krashing into moon orbit below a certain altitude, causing a weird drift of the orbit lines: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/480397772248580098/621742029059260427/220200_20190912121954_1.png?width=888&height=500
<discord-> l​pg. — turns out it's not a krash thing, it's a hyperedit thing (krash happens to borrow code from hyperedit). Did a "real" launch, and hyperedited from launchpad to moon orbit, and seeing the same behavior
<discord-> l​pg. — f5/f9 appears to fix it, though I don't have a good setup to test conclusively

<discord-> A​cer_Saccharum. — Your need to hack gravity when using hyperedit or the stock set orbit feature
<discord-> l​pg. — not when you're landed, but no difference either way
<discord-> l​pg. — though I didn't try just toggling Hack on & off to see if that fixes it

<discord-> l​pg. — ahah. switching to a different vessel above the magic altitude, then back to the vessel below, also seems to fix it. and that's something that can be done in krash
<discord-> e​gg. — @Acer_Saccharum have you tried using the orbit analyzer?
<discord-> e​gg. — @lpg et al., do you have tips on making videos or animated gifs of KSP
<discord-> e​gg. — We'd like to show some pretty moving things when announcing the rotation stuff
<discord-> l​pg. — zero knowledge here
<discord-> e​gg. — @Damien maybe?
<discord-> s​iimav. — @Standecco might have some hints as well.

<discord-> D​amien. — I've only ever used shadowplay for recording video tbh but if you have an Nvidia card it does the job
<discord-> A​cer_Saccharum. — I have used the orbit analyzer
<discord-> A​cer_Saccharum. — It's super useful, but of course displays mean orbital elements, which was exactly what I was looking for yesterday
<discord-> A​cer_Saccharum. — It's super useful, but of course displays mean orbital elements, which wasn't exactly what I was looking for yesterday (edited)
<discord-> A​cer_Saccharum. — I needed to know my true longitude to know precisely when in a circular equatorial orbit I needed to make a burn
<discord-> A​cer_Saccharum. — It was great for displaying my satellites' various orbital periods

<discord-> S​ir Mortimer. — @egg I use QuickTime to do screen recordings on mac. built-in, free.
<discord-> S​ir Mortimer. — well, free except the overpriced mac, of course.
<discord-> B​utcher. — @egg what os?

<discord-> B​utcher. — Win +g is in the game bar thing.
<discord-> e​gg. — unfortunately my laptop tends to be slugging with RO and my desktop is 7 (what year is this, etc.)
<discord-> e​gg. — maybe I can wing it with the laptop
