⟨intlon⟩ anyone got some tips for installing principia manually on 1.8.1?
13:28
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ ive been trying yet it doesn't work
14:14
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ yeah, im using CKAN to update surrounding mods and manually installing principia
14:14
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ but
14:18
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ so i shouldnt install it like you intall other mods and just throw the folder in there?
14:19
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ because that doesnt work
14:20
<
queqiao- >
⟨egg⟩ What folder, where, how does it not work? We don’t have a crystal ball to figure out what is going on on your computer.
14:21
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ what i tried was i put the contents of the gamedata folder in the download file for principia into my ksp gamedata directory
14:22
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ im going to try to use a new save world even though my old one didn't have any ongoing flights
14:22
<
queqiao- >
⟨egg⟩ You did not answer what you meant by _not working_.
14:23
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ when i loaded up my save, the game crashed
14:23
<
queqiao- >
⟨egg⟩ This is not necessary.
14:23
<
queqiao- >
⟨egg⟩ Alright, then you should read the FAQ instructions for a crash, not try random other things.
14:23
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ thx will try
14:25
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ you mean the one underneath the getting help section?
14:40
<
queqiao- >
⟨egg⟩ Just look at the FATAL file, if it crashes on install it is probably something obvious
15:01
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ yeah seems like Principia doesnt support a trappist mod i have set up
15:01
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ should i file report anyway?
15:01
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ and since my ksp isnt isnt in a steam installation (or well its a copy of a steam directory of ksp) i dont have the crash files
15:02
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ yeah seems like Principia doesnt support a trappist mod i have
15:06
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ yeah seems like Principia doesnt support a trappist mod i have, i just dont know what the mod is called
15:08
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ im guessing that its REX
15:18
<
queqiao- >
⟨intlon⟩ ok yeah got it to work without REX but now apparently kerbalöism is freaking otu

⟨strelka⟩ not exactly sure what's going on here, but its neat
21:01
<
queqiao- >
⟨strelka⟩ is there a name for this sort of orbit ?
21:59
<
queqiao- >
⟨makoivis⟩ someone asked about the ballistic capture trajectory:
22:13
<
queqiao- >
⟨makoivis⟩ didn't get quite as stable a capture after the burn but still got a temp orbit
22:25
<
queqiao- >
⟨makoivis⟩ reminds me of the artemis 1 orbit and that was distant retrograde, but I definitely do now know
22:27
<
queqiao- >
⟨strelka⟩ me !
22:28
<
queqiao- >
⟨makoivis⟩ I don't usually get a good capture burn without a few correcting burns and burning at GSE Ap seems to work best
22:28
<
queqiao- >
⟨strelka⟩ it looks to me like some sort of L1 butterfly halo orbit? it's funky
22:28
<
queqiao- >
⟨makoivis⟩ -burn
22:28
<
queqiao- >
⟨makoivis⟩ I got a butterfly after the the burn
22:28
<
queqiao- >
⟨makoivis⟩ often I get lissajous
22:31
<
queqiao- >
⟨makoivis⟩ anyway this has been my favorite thing lately 🙂
22:31
<
queqiao- >
⟨makoivis⟩ it would be awesome to get proper backwards integration 😛
22:31
<
queqiao- >
⟨makoivis⟩ would probably be a pain to implement
