Unionhawk

It's too far gone.

Frank

@SaintWacko Floating points. The kraken eats ships every now and then.

SaintWacko

Then I discovered that the slightest bump would set everything oscillating out of control

I discovered this while on a spacewalk

Unionhawk

Though I do want to write Mr. Boehner a letter telling him to get his shit together, totally unrelated.

SaintWacko

9:56 PM

Bumped into one of the radiators and it started twisting and shaking. Some kind of positive feedback on the arms

Lost all the solar panels

So I sent it back home

Discovered that I didn't have symmetry on while placing some fuel lines, so I had to keep stopping and manually transferring fuel

Dove it into the atmosphere and burnt up most of it, but I dropped it in backwards so the crew capsules were fine

Once it was through the burny part, I had all the kerbals jump out, popped their parachutes, and used their EVA thrusters to get them together

The station was toast, but all the crew survived :)

That's what it looked like before the kraken struck

I'm going to redesign it

And sell this design as a patented Kraken Lure™

RPi Awesomeness

lol

Unionhawk

Holy crap I need to get this laptop repaired

The connection to the monitor is terribad

Frank

@SaintWacko Yeah, overlapping solar panels have wonky hit detection.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it blows up like they're made of straight glass.

SaintWacko

@Frank I had figured that was the problem, but even after I collapsed the few remaining solar panels, I was still having issues

And even once the few remaining panels flew off

Frank

@SaintWacko Mods + solar panels = super kraken bait.

SaintWacko

10:03 PM

@Frank I'm going to have to find a bit more sturdy design

That doesn't have so many overlapping parts

Maybe just a long extending pole that has solar panels coming off the sides

And the station core at one end

I really liked this octagonal design, but it clearly doesn't work

Frank

@SaintWacko If you don't mind super lag, there's no reason you can't just rotate them around a central axis, with some shielding on the outside for launching.

SaintWacko

@Frank What do you mean?

Rotate them around a central axis?

Frank

@SaintWacko What are you using for mechanical roation right now?

fredley

It's to do with how saving is done

@Batophobia I know why it's not auto-completing

SaintWacko

@Frank There's no rotation. Here, I'll post a couple pictures

Batophobia

10:06 PM

@fredley Do tell

SaintWacko

All folded up

Frank

It's something like those "hidden doors" people use. One side has a fireplace or something, the other has nothing on it.

Batophobia

Can you blow the planet in KSP?

FAE

@SaintWacko Jochem says you're a monster for sending 3 kerbals into a low solar orbit

Frank

Only for yours, it's structural shielding on one side, the other has a solar panel.

fredley

10:07 PM

@Batophobia I'll fix it tomorrow

SaintWacko

Actually, here's all folded up

@FAE Tell him it was using a refrigeration laser to keep cooled

>.>

spugsley

HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

SaintWacko

Then those arms on the side extend down

And it looks like the last screenshot

Then they fold out and it looks like

Then the solar panels extend from the sides of the arms

Frank

@SaintWacko There's a mod for those extensions. What's it called again?

FAE

@SaintWacko I showed him the extended panel picture and he said that yeah, overlapping parts will cause oscillation

SaintWacko

10:09 PM

@Frank Infernal Robotics

@FAE Ah, okay

Frank

@SaintWacko That's it.

SaintWacko

That's good to know

Frank

It also has some rotators.

SaintWacko

@Frank Oh! I see how I could use those instead of hinges

FAE

@SaintWacko He said it's clipping, parts that clip through each other will cause the kraken

SaintWacko

10:10 PM

@FAE Yeah, I knew there was a lot of clipping on it, but I was hoping that had been fixed

Alright, I'll rebuild it so it doesn't clip

Actually that makes sense

I didn't get it to stop summoning the kraken until I fold it up in a weird shape where there wasn't much clipping

Frank

@SaintWacko I figured just throw something on the outside to shield them from bits and pieces until you get into space.

SaintWacko

It won't look as cool, but no more kraken :(

@Frank When they're folded up, they're pretty sturdy

Frank

Then rotate them around once the shielding is no longer required.

@SaintWacko But the design can make sure they don't clip at the same time!

Win win!

SaintWacko

Yeah, that's not the only clipping, though

There's actually quite a bit

Tons of clipping on the arms themselves

Well, time for me to go home

@FAE Tell @Jochem thanks for the advice

And same to you, @Frank

Maybe I can make it lighter

I'll design a new one tonight and test it out

FAE

@SaintWacko He says no problem!

Oh boy, a discussion about religion on the internet.

What fun.

MBraedley

@Jochem Right now, stock+, which I think I'm mostly covered on. KAS would be nice, but it's not updated, should probably get a fairing mod, I might try FAR

Wipqozn

@John Yes. Surely my raising of this topic can only end well.

Frank

Biggest problem I have with KSP is that only ships in your current vicinity are active.

Jochem

@MBraedley There's a patch for KAS, if you dig through the thread. I haven't tried, but some people have gotten it to work.

Frank

10:44 PM

So setting up automated mining outposts don't work so well.

MBraedley

@Jochem I might also try Firespitter again, but I've had problems in the past.

Also, I don't want to go digging through the dev thread. The guy should just post it on Curse and be done with it.

Jochem

Last playthrough I went with FAR + KW Rocketry for fairings. I prefer KW over B9 because B9 is mostly a spaceplane pack, and I prefer rockets to planes.
I also prefered KW's fairings over something like procedural fairings cause you had to actually build your probes keeping in mind they had to fit inside one of the fairings you have unlocked, instead of just being able build a rocket that looks like someone stuck a beachball on a matchstick.
Alternatively, you could install NEAR, which is effectively FAR-light. It's more forgiving than actual FAR, made by the same people.

MBraedley

Yeah, I was considering KW already (tab's open, just need to download and install)

FAE

@spugsley I like the article, only issue I have is that lack of a definition of what virginity is here and non-intercourse sex is still sex (as there's more than one virginity, which Erika Moen so awesomely pointed out in today's Penny Arcade).

MBraedley

@FAE I always like when they do guest strips. Bill Amend's previous Pax Pox strip is top notch

Jochem

10:49 PM

I think the KAS patch is unofficial or something, not sure. I half looked and figured I'd wait for the full release. I never mind adding mods in later

FAE

@MBraedley I <3 Erika Moen, so I really liked this one.

Fluttershy

Erika Moen is pretty awesome.

Jochem

I might add up ending FAR + Deadly Reentry + KAS + KW Rocketry + RemoteTech to this playthrough. It feels like cheating now to have an interplanetary probe come back at 3+km/s straight down into the atmosphere and have it survive

spugsley

@FAE I don't know what to say to you and that's making me very anxious.

I can't submit edits, and you're right.

FAE

@spugsley I'm not like, upset or anything, so you don't need to worry about that, just was giving some feedback.

spugsley

10:53 PM

In my youth, I defined virginity as vaginal sex. I think everyone should define virginity for themselves, what it is, how they 'lose' whatever it is.

MBraedley

@Jochem Yeah, that doesn't happen (other than the fact that 3km/s is sub-orbital) IRL

FAE

@spugsley Right, everyone has the right to do that, though I do agree with what you said about the concept being used as control. The fact that we even call it a "loss" is damaging to to our psyches.

Jochem

@MBraedley I'm not quite masochistic enough (yet) to go full Real Solar System, though it's tempting

anyway, I should head off to bed. ttyl!

spugsley

@FAE absolutely. I think in my anger and passion and sadness and anxiety in writing this, I didn't adequately define or acknowledge that in this case I'm talking vaginal virginity as defined by my former religion

MBraedley

(sigh) I apparently bought Weezer - Pork and Beans a while ago on iTunes, and it's compressed to hell to the point that it's nearly unlistenable.

Although that might just be Google Play streaming.

Yeah, I may be able to (partially) blame Google on this one.

FAE

and since majority (I'm guessing) listens to music with shitty ipod earbuds, they cater to the masses

MBraedley

@Chippies Yeah, but even a little dynamic range, which this and the other Weezer song I discovered I own, can go a long way.

Chippies

@MBraedley sure, but most people wouldn't know the difference

I mean, the only dynamic range comes in the bridge, where there's no guitar and no drums.
