    Is this the part where we drink beer, swap stories of near-death experiences, and complain about equipment? Been an LSIT for 12+ years now, surveying for 25+. When I get around to figuring out stock bearings, I'll build a Total Station using Hullcam VDS and LaserDist. I'm guessing flags make excellent backsights.

    @JadeOfMaar Is it possible to create a mod that adds another indicator for Center of Buoyancy? Balancing subs is a pain in the stern.

    Look at any number of state or national borders. Also, keep in mind he was talking about the orientation of the launchpad, not the location. A LOT of things are constructed more tightly than that. 0.09721 degrees is at least 100x the angular error I'd put up with, if I were hired to lay out the site due east-west.

    I'm a land surveyor. Why do you have to hurt my soul by telling me these things?!?

    Coincidentally, that's the last time I played with a comms system. This is a good time for me to point out that the majority of the moons are tidally locked, and Duna and Ike are tidally locked together. It's a good way to eliminate some drift from your network.

    Holy crap! I can't believe you flew that thing to orbit on one rocket. And I thought the engineers at ESA were crazy!

    This is the kind of raw idiocy I like to see in KSP

    Your KRPC version may not be compatible with KSP 1.4.2. You can try posting your issue here: Or, try using KRPC 0.4.5 or 0.4.6 instead: https://github.com/krpc/krpc/releases

    That's a neat idea. How about a site challenge-makers can access and assign badges to your profile. Instead of having badges in your sig, you could have a link to your profile on the site, similar to the KerbalX link in your sig. Perhaps it could be managed AT KerbalX, so we don't have to have a new account somewhere else.

    My vices are a little different.

    In local news, oregano sales have shot through the roof. When asked to comment on the matter, Jebediah Kerman said, "Dave's not here, man."

    MOM! TRIOP'S BEEN DRINKING AGAIN!!!

    Can you use the extending MH docking ports to place your shells within the breech? If the shell is attached to the main craft via the port, you can make it phase right through the fairing or the base.

    @Tyko Scroll to the Optimization section: http://www.projectrho.com/public_html/rocket/multistage.php I think this is outdated for some engines, but you can check your work against it: https://garycourt.github.io/korc/ (I really need to start playing 2.5x or 3.2x, because I have no compelling reason to optimize launches at 1x scale.)

    That would be a wonderful thing to have within the RCS Build Aid interface. Not that it wouldn't work just fine externally, but I think the features you propose would be a bit more synergistic in combination with RCSBA.

    To be fair, I'm really, really good at it.

    Ha! That's great. He's definitely a problem-solver that doesn't let things stop him.

    When I was a kid I knew two people who grew up to be journalists that work for public radio. In fact, I used to "play doctor" with one of them. (No, I'm not telling you who she is.) They're both VERY smart people and know their material extremely well. Knowing both of them, they became journalists to defend freedom. Their parents and siblings are pretty cool too.

    I was prepared to be really irritated by this thread. I am exactly the opposite of that. I hope the comment I left him was helpful.

    Not on Dres that I’m aware of. Other fun geographical features are the canyons on the Mun, the Mohole at the north pole of Moho, a large canyon on Duna, and a “cave” on Tylo that I’ve never been to.

    The pressure and velocity curves for the jet engines are really educational: https://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/J-404_"Panther"_Afterburning_Turbofan All of them side-by-side in the expando box: https://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Jet_engine Good question.

    Kerbal Maps: http://ksp.deringenieur.net/ The Slope Map option really helped here. Is it 4deg S, 18deg E? I haven't been to Dres in years.

    That might be a problem with the Micronode as well. Try another part, and see if the problem persists.

    This sounds like great fun! Also, you're the boss; don't worry about offending me. If you think something sucks, feel free to say so. No rush. I won't have a lot of time until Saturday.List of ideas to cover in your PM:
