⟨patrikcath⟩ ⟪paculino⟫ The hack gravity loophole would allow […] ⮪ That _might_ allow it, but since you can only do it from the tracking station you'd need to hack gravity, go to the tracking station, do the thing, then switch back to the craft and unhack gravity. I've heard switching vessels while having hacked gravity on tends to break principia so I wouldn't try it

⟨patrikcath⟩ ~sometimes I like to misread my own messages and think I just said a bunch of nonsense, "fix" it, then realise it was actually fine~
<queqiao->
⟨lpg⟩ the hack gravity loophole only affects the loaded vessel
<paculino>
Oh, I thought selecting in tracking station loaded it

⟨kingparity⟩ is it normal for the orbit path to spazz out a bunch sometimes.. im at jool and it’s going crazy
<paculino>
Sometimes future trajectory can be *extremely* sensitive to any change in velocity now. Is that what is happening? Is RCS on? Is it in the future and a problem with tolerance/step, or is it super bad?
<queqiao->
⟨kingparity⟩ it was distance in the future but no RCS on
<queqiao->
⟨kingparity⟩ im in a different orbit now anyway
<paculino>
If it is distant, it may be a bit fuzzy. Smaller step size might help, but you may not need to see that far in advance
<queqiao->
⟨kingparity⟩ yeah
<queqiao->
⟨kingparity⟩ tolerance is also 1mm, just thought it was funny and weird

1 mm is a couple order of magnitudes more precise than you will ever need
