⟨Butcher⟩ Very much this. Most of mine fall into one of two categories.
<queqiao-_>
⟨Butcher⟩ Contract sats which can be loose as you like, the contract is something like within a degree of inclination.
<queqiao-_>
⟨Butcher⟩ Comms downlinks for LEO which just need to be roughly in the right hemisphere so precise ground holding is not important.

⟨GrowFlavor⟩ thanks! we mostly use KSP to explore transfers in Principia with RSS, Kerbin, or Trappist-1 systems...(& I can also always create a custom GameData folder for something interesting...at least from KSP 1.0.5 on though I will eventually migrate as much as possible to 1.11.2 & 1.12.x). Our long term objective is orbiting & landed stations in various places in RSS & Trappist-1 so to directly an

⟨Damien⟩ that's great. I play RP-1 and JNSQ on and off with principia but I've recently started again after a long break. I'm planning on making a new RSS/SMURFF/Principia install to play with, which if I get round to doing some cool things I'll send you the saves of

⟨GrowFlavor⟩ Ok...details so far have been listed in issue 3064. @Butcher @Al2Me6 @Zeusbeer thanks for your earlier mentions of seeing similar symptoms.
<queqiao-_>
⟨GrowFlavor⟩ that will be great ! (& eventually I also want to play RP-1 myself but need to upgrade to a new machine to do that with our crippling consequences 😉

⟨egg⟩ @Butcher you may be onto something here
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ we just found that we leak old predictions as we compute new ones; they will get destroyed on scene change, but only then, so if you don’t change scenes very often…
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ this has been the case for three years though, so it is odd that this would pop up now

⟨FabioKevin⟩ Is there any way to fix the launch to the plane of The Moon in mechjeb PVG for principia?
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ where are you launching from?
<queqiao-_>
⟨siimav⟩ a) uninstall Principia
<queqiao-_>
⟨siimav⟩ b) wait until the Moon precession is just right
<queqiao-_>
⟨siimav⟩ c) launch from Kourou
<queqiao-_>
⟨FabioKevin⟩ Well, I am launching from Cape Canaveral, though my install does not include Principia, just asking if it is possible.
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ then you cannot launch into the plane of the moon except for a short while every eight years or so
<queqiao-_>
⟨Damien⟩ d) yeet it over the North Pole like Korolev
<raptop>
All hail the off-plane intercept
<queqiao-_>
⟨FabioKevin⟩ Does the button that let you warp to an ideal ascent for doing TLI to the Moon with PVG not work that well at all?
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ that button requires that you can launch into the plane of the moon, which requires you to be in that plane
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ this is (almost) never the case in Cape Canaveral
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ without Principia, the Moon is stuck at its highest inclination relative to the Earth’s equator to make that manœuvre artificially easy
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ but in real life that is simply not how you launch from there
<queqiao-_>
⟨Damien⟩ For you to launch into an orbit, that orbit needs to cross your launch site. In RSS without principia the moon is fixed at its highest inclination (~28.6°) which is very close to KSCs latitude
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ then you cannot launch into the plane of the moon except for a short while every eighteen years or so (edited)
<queqiao-_>
⟨Damien⟩ In principia, as in RL, the moon is rarely at that inclination

⟨FabioKevin⟩ Ok, that's nice to know.
<queqiao-_>
⟨FabioKevin⟩ Also, I guess installing principia for my current in progress savefile would be just a death sentence for the savefile, right?

⟨FabioKevin⟩ Also, I guess installing principia for my current in progress savefile would be just a death sentence for the savefile, right? Plus I should not bother with that since I still have to do Uncrewed Lunar orbit (edited)
<queqiao-_>
⟨FabioKevin⟩ I'm actually not sure If I do have some missions to other bodies. How do I check without launching ksp in the middle of 01:57?
* raptop
suspects that there's a way in in the persistence.sfs file, maybe checking for vessels?
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ you wait a minute, and now it is 01:58
