<queqiao-> ⟨gravShark⟩ First time playing noodles in a long while. Is it still wise to delete vessels after they are done to prevent save file bloat with vessel history?
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ Vessel history bloat should no longer be a problem.
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ This was fixed in हरीश चंद्र, see https://github.com/mockingbirdnest/Principia/wiki/Change-Log#%E0%A4%B9%E0%A4%B0%E0%A5%80%E0%A4%B6-%E0%A4%9A%E0%A4%82%E0%A4%A6%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%B0.
<queqiao-> ⟨gravShark⟩ Nice! I had mind to write something like a cleanup script in python to parse the save file and trim it up if it was still a thing lol
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ That would not have been possible anyway, because Principia data is completely opaque in the save file; it is just a massive sequence of base64 fields, and touching that would corrupt your save.
<queqiao-> ⟨gravShark⟩ I’m in 1960ish and save file is like 5mb so it’s still pretty tiny
<queqiao-> ⟨gravShark⟩ Couldn’t you decode and reencode, out of curiosity?
<queqiao-> ⟨gravShark⟩ Not that it’s necessary, just curious from a technical perspective
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ Well, you could, after all, Principia reads that data. But you would need to decode the base64, then decompress, then read the protocol buffer wire format, and only then can you start messing with the data.
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ Don’t go there, it’s a silly place.
<queqiao-> ⟨DRVeyl⟩ But potentially a lot of silly fun if you want to mess with someone else's save file. Bonuses if they don't know you did so or have KSP 😛
<queqiao-> ⟨DRVeyl⟩ Give a vessel a bizarre flight history!
<queqiao-> ⟨DRVeyl⟩ (Don't do this, it's much more silly than actually fun.)
