00:35 <kellpossible> Hi I'm on Archlinux tryping to build Principia, but having some problems. I

00:36 <kellpossible> I'm guessing I need to build the "adapter" target?

00:36 <kellpossible> I've tried just running make, but I get a couple of failing tests

00:37 <kellpossible> It seems to be having trouble finding the assemblies, I'm not sure if I have them in the right directory and how it knows what version to look for

00:37 <kellpossible> I've put a symbolic link to them in "KSP Assemblies/1.11.2"

00:40 <discord-> A​l2Me6. — I might be wrong, but it looks like the folder needs to be `1.11.0` instead? https://github.com/mockingbirdnest/Principia/blob/master/ksp_plugin_adapter/ksp_plugin_adapter.csproj#L66-L104

00:53 <kellpossible> @discord- thanks, I'll try that!

01:07 <discord-> n​9gaming. — I've encountered this, going to experiment with different methods of far-in-the-future interplanetary planning - probably just not zooming in until much closer. It'll be less of an exact science, but the unknowns involved make it sort of exciting idk!

01:09 <discord-> n​9gaming. — I had wondered if a feature allowing the user to "hide" particular trajectories at will but honestly I wouldn't begin to know how impossible that would be to implement 😛

01:09 <kellpossible> ooh it seems to have worked! Additionally I had to make a bunch of little tweaks to make it compile on presumeably what is my newer version of clang

01:16 <discord-> n​9gaming. — I had wondered if a feature allowing the user to "hide" particular trajectories at will is possible to make, but honestly I wouldn't begin to know how impossible that would be to implement 😛 (edited)

01:23 <kellpossible> Is there a way to reduce the length of the current trajectory display?

01:23 <kellpossible> This is so cool!

06:28 <discord-> A​shnoom. — Principia has its own logs in the ksp game for. See the Principia FAQ on GitHub

07:38 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — Yeah I saw your frustrations a while earlier in this discord

07:38 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — It's really gameplay breaking

08:14 <discord-> K​obymaru. — I know, i posted one of those logs above

08:57 <discord-> A​shnoom. — Ah, sorry didn't notice. :-)

11:29 <discord-> e​gg. — yeah, we should probably update that

11:29 <discord-> e​gg. — (in fact perhaps we should automate the whole « bump the KSP version up » dance…)

11:54 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — ah

11:54 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — haven't done this in a while

11:54 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — kinda fun to do

11:54 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/480397772248580098/833309617060577300/unknown.png

11:55 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — I just wanted to test if I got my physics exam question correct

11:55 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — lol

11:55 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — the ratio between the distances of the bodies should be about 9.0

11:59 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — (it's not lol)

12:00 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — maybe the question was too oversimplified

12:25 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — oh wait, I just switched it to L2 and now its a lot closer to 9.0

12:44 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — I was analysing some possible halo orbits

12:44 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — there is one that might work for pluto and charon

12:45 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — I am just wondering if the (halo) orbit itself will be smaller or bigger, considering the distance between the 2 bodies is relatively closer

12:52 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — Seems bigger

12:52 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/480397772248580098/833324046946533396/unknown.png

12:52 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — its so cool, from that point Pluto and Charon seem to have the same size

12:58 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — also L4 and L5 are huge

12:58 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — also the L4 and L5 halo orbits are huge (edited)

17:53 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — I am wondering, would barycentric reference frame be usefull for binary systems?

18:06 <raptop> apropros nothing, MRO and Mars Odyssy are in sun-synchronous orbits (which feels relevant for egg's ongoing mission design considerations)

19:57 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — any other suggestions for a tutorial series

19:57 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — any other suggestions for a tutorial series? (edited)

19:59 <discord-> Z​eusbeer. — I put the Lagrange points at the lowest priority because of a somewhat usable tutorial already existing

20:34 <discord-> M​arsu. — Nice !

20:35 <discord-> e​gg. — I would argue that in terms of complexity GEO is harder than L4 and L5 (it certainly is more common IRL admittedly; then again the reasons for that are not applicable to KSP as it stands)

23:31 <discord-> A​l2Me6. — Maybe an off-plane transfer to the Moon (eg. from Baikonur) or a Venus-Mercury assist?
