raptop changed the topic of #principia to: READ THE FAQ: http://goo.gl/gMZF9H; The current version is Galileo. We currently target 1.5.1, 1.6.1, 1.7.x, 1.8.1, and 1.9.1. <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

Zeusbeer. — How close are you in fixing the load times further in a save? I'm planning to go quite far into rp1
<discord->
Anomaly. — Usually the answer to that is, "we'll deal with it when you get there", because 95% of people aren't gonna make it past moon boots anyway.

Anomaly. — Lmao yeah everyone "plans" on doing that too.

Anomaly. — I've made some 15 different mission architectures for Mars boots in my head already.
<discord->
Anomaly. — Approximately 0 of which will come into fruition.

egg. — @moar ssto « seems to have problems » is about as unspecific as you can get. What are you observing, what are you expecting ?

Butcher. — I really need to get a journal repro of the random fatal that keeps killing me when stuff explodes.
<discord->
egg. — yeah I have encountered something like that with some planes, I should journal it

CrimsonGhost138. — he guys, i am currently trying to script a simple manouver-executer in kOS for Principia, but kOS says, "Principia isnt installed" ?!?! Anyone know of a workaround? Or does anyone have a simple script at hand, that i could customize for the use with Principia?
<discord->
Stonesmile. — @CrimsonGhost138 Are you trying to use an API from kOS to principia?
<discord->
Stonesmile. — AFAIK that API was never implemented
<discord->
Butcher. — You can just use the stock node functionality in kOS to execute principia nodes.
<discord->
Butcher. — That's what I do.
<discord->
CrimsonGhost138. — > AFAIK that API was never implemented
<discord->
CrimsonGhost138. — @Butcher How do you manage the missing dV information? Principia doesnt work with the stock-dV nodes, its not counting down. Do you use the burn times then?
<discord->
Butcher. — You have the dV information from the node.
<discord->
Butcher. — `NextNode:DeltaV` gives you delta V.
<discord->
Butcher. — Oh wait you mean, how do I know when to stop?
<discord->
Butcher. — I: work out how much fuel needs to be burned for the correct amount of deltaV and burn until that much fuel is consumed.
<discord->
Butcher. — Seemed like the best method, it accounts for variable thrust.
<discord->
CrimsonGhost138. — Yes 🙂 Wow yes thats elegant! i thought about just counting down the burn times Principia provides me in the Flight Planner, but thats pretty rough i guess ^^ Do you have your script at hand, so i can take a glance how you do the calc´s ?

scimas. — @CrimsonGhost138 You're looking at the dev version of documentation. The stuff appearing on github.io/KOS/* may or may not actually be in the kOS release. You want to browse the https://ksp-kos.github.io/KOS_DOC/ website (notice the _DOC), that's the actual documentation of kOS. Most of the time both websites are identical, but sometimes they aren't as you found out (the Principia addon isn't menti
