16:32 <queqiao-> ⟨dannyb3001⟩ Are there any principia related contracts or science experiments (for career mode) that encourage the use of complicated orbits? Additionally, is there a more elegant way to create a flight plan without first designing a ship (I how you can just redesign it, but I would love to have a way to build ships based around a specified flight plan as opposed to planning around a ship).

17:21 <queqiao-> ⟨reabean⟩ I don’t think so. it would be cool to have contracts around any of the lagrange points

17:22 <queqiao-> ⟨reabean⟩ Not really sure how you make contracts that can see that specific orbit though

17:28 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ No, to both questions. Though to the first question there is work ongoing around #σκοπός; but the idea there is not to tell you to get into any specific complicated orbit, but to give you high-level objectives and to let you come up with orbits that allow you to meet these.

17:29 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ (While that has not yet transpired in that channel, there is renewed work on that front; but for now things are limited to telecommunication satellites, because one must eat the elephant steak in chunks.)

17:31 <queqiao-> ⟨dannyb3001⟩ that is incredibly cool, thank you

17:31 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ See https://github.com/mockingbirdnest/Skopos?tab=readme-ov-file#%CF%83%CE%BA%CE%BF%CF%80%CE%BF%CC%81%CF%82 for the high-level overview.

17:33 <queqiao-> ⟨dannyb3001⟩ does the mod work with the stock system?

17:37 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ No, it does not even properly work at all, please read the Status section.
