egg changed the topic of #principia to: Logs: https://esper.irclog.whitequark.org/principia | <scott_manley> anyone that doubts the wisdom of retrograde bop needs to get the hell out | https://xkcd.com/323/ | <egg> calculating the influence of lamont on Pluto is a bit silly…

⟨aercian⟩ i wish this was true for me );
<queqiao->
⟨Joshua Wood⟩ My max TWR is only 7 to be fair. I brought like 50m/s of RCS just incase but i don't think i used more than 2 :p
<queqiao->
⟨Joshua Wood⟩ made all my impactors "land" on the side facing earth for maximum science
<queqiao->
⟨Joshua Wood⟩ my manuvre nodes seemed to be moving around a lot when mechjeb is trying to point at the node 10mins before it starts, it needs to "correct" 3-4 times on it's way to doing it
<queqiao->
makes me question if i can do the classic spin in LEO and launch a science probe with an SRB to orbit the moon :/;
<queqiao->
⟨Joshua Wood⟩ Yes on average several people are working full time on calculating optimal solutions and implementing them in the safest least mission intrusive manner 🤣
<queqiao->
⟨Quadrupole🇵🇸🇸🇾🇨🇺⟩ And making sure no one accidentally hitting the spacebar
<queqiao->
⟨delta___v⟩ how do I get the trajectories mod to work with principia maneuvers? or should I just eyeball it and adjust my trajectory after the burn
<queqiao->
⟨Joshua Wood⟩ you set your reference frame to the correct one and there is no need for trajectories
<queqiao->
if you want to see where you are impacting or landing use surface mode
<queqiao->
⟨delta___v⟩ i was trying to do a targeted reentry
<queqiao->
⟨Joshua Wood⟩ trajectories doesn't work with FAR anyway :p
<queqiao->
⟨Joshua Wood⟩ ~trajectories doesn't work with FAR anyway :p~
<queqiao->
it does nowadays weird
<queqiao->
⟨delta___v⟩ i realized i could set my maneuver to overshoot and just shutoff my engine once the trajectory is where i want it to be
<queqiao->
⟨delta___v⟩ the trajectories mod trajectory doesnt have ecef 😔
<queqiao->
⟨totallynotpi⟩ Wasn't there a body-fixed setting somewhere in its menu?
<queqiao->
⟨totallynotpi⟩ * Isn't
<queqiao->
⟨delta___v⟩ there is a fixed body option
<queqiao->
⟨delta___v⟩ which is the opposite of what i want
<queqiao->
⟨Joshua Wood⟩ I actually LOVE principia flight planner
<queqiao->
⟨Joshua Wood⟩ no idea if base game has a "rebase" button, if it does i don't know where it is, if it doesn't it needs one
<queqiao->
⟨Joshua Wood⟩ is it just me or is this orbit VERY stable for a lunar orbit? is this odd behaviour or was carnassa just silly going for such low orbits?
<queqiao->
⟨delta___v⟩ I think you have to click the orbit analysis button to see how stable it is
<queqiao->
⟨Joshua Wood⟩ ahh makes sense, i did a flight plan of 40 days long and it barely changed :p
