KSP2 Release Notes

While trying to create a mission that features a Goliath engine failure, I've discovered that Goliath engines are immune to failures (dead engine) or explosion through "fail part" or "explode part" nodes. KSP version: 1.4.1.2089 (LinuxPlayer). No mods are installed. Edit: this issue persists in 1.4.2.

The 502 error has nothing to do with Nginx itself. It basically means: "Hey, I'm alive, but the application I'm relaying all your requests to is dead". When you see nginx 502 or 504 errors, it's never nginx's fault.

Game breaking graphics bugs
mrabinovich replied to covername's topic in KSP1 Technical Support (PC, unmodded installs)
I've disabled AA and still have the same problem. Nvidia 640GT, driver 331.113. Edit: This is how the space center looks with AA disabled both in game and driver settings (I've got there by random clicks): Edit 2: Somehow it was fixed by a reboot, but thanks anyway. -
How to nicely exit Kerbin's SOI

I personally found this Scott Manley's videos pretty instructive: - video about interplanetary transfers. - general orbital mechanics. -

SpaceX to reveal their manned DragonV2 capsule tonight

Is it capable of automated docking? If yes, it is a giant leap for american astronautics. -
What are disadvantages of nuclear fusion?
mrabinovich replied to KerbMav's topic in Science & Spaceflight
The most practical way of producing tririum and fusing it with deiterium is using lithium deuteride for that purpose. It is solid and stable. When a Li-6 or Li-7 atom captures a neutron, it decays into a helium core and tritium core. This reaction is widely used in thermonuclear weapons. Unfortunately, an external neutron source is required, otherwise the reactivity will be below 1, as not every neutron produced by fusion of deuterium and tritium will be captured by a lithium atom. In weapons, the nuclear initiator plays the role of an external neutron source. -
New tier in the science tree
mrabinovich posted a topic in KSP1 Suggestions & Development Discussion
Disclaimer: I'm little more than a complete newbie, so I'm aware that my proposal may sound ridiculous to experienced players. I've just unlocked all science in the carreer mode without even going beyond the orbit of Duna or landing on another planet. It seems to me that a new tier of extremely expensive science could add motivation for further exploration. Each technology from that tier should cost realy much, e. g. 3000 science, and unlock a superior piece of equipment that can make exploration of the outer planets and Jool moons substantialy easier. Also, the combined cost of this techs should exceed the maximum accumulated science, so that the player will have to make decisions about what to research instead of unlocking everything after a few Mun and Minmus missions. Example tech: advanced nuclear propulsion, requires nuclear propulsion and meta-materials, unlocks an advanced nuclear engine that has 2x mass and fuel consumption of LV-N, but 4x thrust. -
The Linux compatibility thread!

Thank you very much. I should have searched better. -
The Linux compatibility thread!
mrabinovich replied to sal_vager's topic in KSP1 Technical Support (PC, unmodded installs)
As far as I could find by trial and error, the core dump is triggered by the following parts: ladder1_4294720148 and ladder1_4294720106. If I remove them, the problem can no longer be reproduced. Could anyone please test if this is a linux specific problem or not? -
