egg changed the topic of #principia to: Logs: https://esper.irclog.whitequark.org/principia | <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…

⟨rsparkyc⟩ I'm assuming its this "feature"?
<queqiao-_>
⟨rsparkyc⟩ > When multiple versions of the same assembly are present, KSP now makes sure only the most recent one is loaded.
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ yup
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ now that we understand it and that there is a vaguely reasonable solution I guess we ought to be happy that a reasonable solution exists and that it’s never going to be touched again
<queqiao-_>
⟨Paculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ It still sounds like a big pain for you to code
<queqiao-_>
⟨Paculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ It still sounds like a big pain for you (edited)
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ uh, we’ve fixed it already ?
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ the undocumented/unexpected nature (and the failure mode by getting stuck) is where the annoyance is, not in itself the requirement to have a version
<queqiao-_>
⟨Paculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ That is much better than what I gathered from the messages in here
<queqiao-_>
⟨Sir Mortimer⟩ Junior is starting with KSP. Wonder when I'll hit him with Principia... 🙂
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ 🍜
<raptop>
Obviously you should get him a copy of Fundamentals of Astrodynamics as a birthday gift
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ I wonder if the Capderou book has a German translation
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ (alternatively, that’s a good way to learn French!)
* raptop
is pretty sure that egg learned German from a math textbook (...and ordering elliptical pizza?)
<queqiao-_>
⟨Sir Mortimer⟩ I wonder how far you get in Zürich with the german one learns at school
<queqiao-_>
⟨Sir Mortimer⟩ Because that's not really the same language.
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ probably less far than with English or French, unless you are at the doctor’s or at university
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ probably less far than with English or French, unless you are at the dentist’s or at university (edited)
<queqiao-_>
⟨rsparkyc⟩ so, shall we wait till the next new moon to get official 1.12 support?
<queqiao-_>
⟨rsparkyc⟩ sounds like if i built it myself i'd have something that works now 🙂
<queqiao-_>
⟨Paculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ Bairisch would get you a bit further, probably.
<queqiao-_>
⟨Nobody⟩ I tried it once and I will never try it again but if you have the time and knowledge 🤷♂️
<queqiao-_>
⟨rsparkyc⟩ i've actually done it once successfully 🙂
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ you would, indeed (and otherwise it’s Grothendieck in August)
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ we’ll have to decide what to do with the stock planner
<queqiao-_>
⟨rsparkyc⟩ i had wondered how that would throw a wrench into things
<queqiao-_>
⟨rsparkyc⟩ obviously it would be amazing if you could use it to build principia nodes 🙂
<queqiao-_>
⟨rsparkyc⟩ i at least wish i could take a KSP node, and "import it" into principia to tweak it
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ that seems unlikely
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ the models are too incompatible to that to be anything but a clunky mess and a lot of work
<queqiao-_>
⟨rsparkyc⟩ yeah, i know i try to do it manually when I use MechJeb to build an interplanetary transfer node, then I try to put those same numbers into principia and tweak it to get my intercept right
<queqiao-_>
⟨rsparkyc⟩ but it never works quite as well as I hope it will
