<queqiao-> ⟨Stonesmile⟩ What message? Just "Principia DLL failed to load", or something else?
<queqiao-> ⟨Falling Guy⟩ yea
<queqiao-> ⟨Stonesmile⟩ Go to the glog/principia folder inside the game folder and see what the last file says
<queqiao-> ⟨byte⟩ It is unreliable without either it sometimes lit up an engine for zsplit second while clicking on execute manevuer. So it might kill limited ignition engines
<queqiao-> ⟨Stonesmile⟩ +(not GameData)
<queqiao-> ⟨Stonesmile⟩ ⟪Falling Guy⟫ 4.png ⮪ And where did you install principia?
<queqiao-> ⟨Falling Guy⟩ github
<queqiao-> ⟨Stonesmile⟩ From the Google Drive link in the readme?
<queqiao-> ⟨Falling Guy⟩ yes
<queqiao-> ⟨Stonesmile⟩ And where did you place the folder you downloaded?
<queqiao-> ⟨Falling Guy⟩ gamedata
<queqiao-> ⟨Stonesmile⟩ Could you show a screenshot?
<queqiao-> ⟨Soviet Onion⟩ Place the Principia folder in Gamedata
<queqiao-> ⟨Stonesmile⟩ I think inside the "principia (name) for 1.12.3" there is another folder called Principia. That's the one you want
<queqiao-> ⟨Soviet Onion⟩ not what you downloaded

<queqiao-> ⟨Falling Guy⟩ this one?
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ That folder should have been _merged_ with the existing GameData directory.
<queqiao-> ⟨Stonesmile⟩ The contents of GameData is what you want to palce in GameData, and remove the "principia (name) for 1.12.3"
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ When you are done, you should have a file at "C:\Users\Иван\Desktop\ksp\Kerbal Space Program\GameData\Principia\x64\principia.dll"
<queqiao-> ⟨Proton | Mod.ROTanks Protester⟩ what is that russian name, egg?!
<queqiao-> ⟨Soviet Onion⟩ Ivan, I think
<queqiao-> ⟨Soviet Onion⟩ ?
<queqiao-> ⟨Falling Guy⟩ Yes it is
<queqiao-> ⟨Falling Guy⟩ another problem
<queqiao-> ⟨sichelgaita⟩ I was just typing a message on this, see https://github.com/mockingbirdnest/Principia/issues/2548.
<queqiao-> ⟨sichelgaita⟩ Mono does not properly support non-ASCII paths, so it fails to find the DLL (some UTF-8 encoding mess). The bottom line: you'll need to put your install at a place that doesn't have non-ASCII characters.
<queqiao-> ⟨Proton | Mod.ROTanks Protester⟩ ⟪Soviet Onion⟫ Ivan, I think ⮪ Egg exposed?! 🤨
<queqiao-> ⟨Falling Guy⟩ ⟪sichelgaita⟫ Mono does not properly support […] ⮪ so what should i do?
<queqiao-> ⟨Soviet Onion⟩ ⟪Proton | Mod.ROTanks Protester⟫ Egg exposed?! 🤨 ⮪ egg's not Ivan 🤦‍♀️
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ ⟪Falling Guy⟫ so what should i do? ⮪ You should put your KSP install somewhere that is not within your user directory (and you should be annoyed at Mono for making you do that).
<queqiao-> ⟨Falling Guy⟩ i need to hide somewhere KSP shortcut?
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ No, the shortcut has nothing to do with that.
<queqiao-> ⟨Butcher⟩ Huh, so mono sucks, who knew. :p
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ You need to move the directory "C:\Users\Иван\Desktop\ksp\Kerbal Space Program" to someplace that does not say "Иван".
<queqiao-> ⟨sichelgaita⟩ Move your entire KSP install to a directory that's in ASCII, such as "C:\ksp" or "C:\Ivan\ksp", etc.
<queqiao-> ⟨Falling Guy⟩ like this?
<queqiao-> ⟨SealLovah⟩ does principia model precession?
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ ⟪Falling Guy⟫ like this? ⮪ Yeah, that looks good
<queqiao-> ⟨SealLovah⟩ does principia model precession? ⮪ Yes? No?
<queqiao-> ⟨Falling Guy⟩ thank you guys so much! it works
<queqiao-> ⟨Stonesmile⟩ ⟪SealLovah⟫ Yes? No? ⮪ Yes
<queqiao-> ⟨SealLovah⟩ Thanks
<queqiao-> ⟨sichelgaita⟩ We model the precession of free rotating vessels, not the precession of equinoxes (the axes of celestials don't wobble).
<queqiao-> ⟨SealLovah⟩ Yes thats what i wanted
<queqiao-> ⟨SealLovah⟩ sunsync orbits will work with it then I hope
<queqiao-> ⟨Soviet Onion⟩ ⟪SealLovah⟫ sunsync orbits will work with it then I […] ⮪ yeah, sun-synchronous orbits are possible in Principia
<queqiao-> ⟨SealLovah⟩ Sweet
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ Ah, that’s yet another precession, that of orbits. Yes, orbits precess accurately because of the oblateness of the Earth.
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ (The perihelion of Mercury does not precess accurately, however.)
<paculino> How much does it deviate from perfectly accurate?
<queqiao-> ⟨Stonesmile⟩ From what I gather; about 43 arcseconds per century
