    What ever happened to MatoroIgnika?

    in The Lounge

    Posted

    I remember finding MatoroIgnika's Twitch streams quite enjoyable a few years ago, especially the space station building series. But now, I can find almost no trace of him or his channel on the internet - does anyone know what happened to him? Is all of the old content just gone? Is he still active somewhere?

    SpaceX Mars colony predictions

    in Science & Spaceflight

    Posted

    I think (or hope, at least) that humans will probably visit Mars within this decade (or my liftime, if I'm lucky), but probably not within the next twenty years. I mean, we have the tecnology and all, but we've got a heck of a lot of planning and engineering to do before it might just become bankable for such a buisness as SpaceX.

    About the whole colonisation of planets will save humankind thing: I don't really think so. Until we manage to terraform Mars it enough to live there without a spacesuit (if that's even possible), humans will probably have gone extinct. I think our best bet would be Titan. You can already survive there now with a heated swimming suit, and being able to fly with wings strapped to your arms just tops it all.

    How many Gs would a hard-landing Europa Lander face upon Impact/landing?

    While a clever row of gravity assits around Jupiter's (almost wrote "Jools") moons should slow you down very much from interplanetary speeds, but you would most probably need at least some manner of breaking by rocket propulsion. No need for a soft landing though when you have a sturdy enough probe, and a bullet-shaped one could also reduce the G's faced greatly.

    Why is not a SSTO useful today?

    It'd be really nice if our economy system was based on the coolness of an idea, in wich case we'd already be flying around in SKYLONs all the time.
    Sadly, that isn't how it works in reality, and so spaceflight will probably just be dominated by some partially-reusable or overall chapskate rockets.

    Can't find .craft or .sfs files or 'saves' folder

    Bit of a necro here. Your question is kinda buried under a lot of 6 month old posts. Would probably be better if you opened a new thread. The location of your save folder depends on where you purchased the game. If you got it through steam, then it might be C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\KSP_win\saves.

    As far as the AppData files are concerned, they are probably hidden by default. You will have to change the default setting. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hidden-files#show-hidden-files=windows-7

    Edit : On windows 10, you may not have a button or link for the control panel, but if you type in "control panel" in the search box next to the start button, it'll be the first thing on the list.

    edit edit : well, yeah, that link is pretty useless. The setting you need is under File Explorer Options, then under the view tab.

     

    Sorry, didn't realize the thread was from June, I just saw 2015...

    As for the saves, I found them in the appdata of another user or kinda mine, I just was a bit stupid :blush:

    What other games do you play besides KSP?

    That sounds like you are heavily into some kind of drug :D I can imagine someone overhearing a kid saying this, only to quickly report the deviant behaviour to principal and parents.

    Whoops:blush:

    English is not my native language, what should I rather use..?

    The Comprehensive Kerbal Archive Network (CKAN) Package Manager; v1.18.0 [19 June 2016]

    I don't know if this has been issued in one of the last 92 pages of posts, but when I launch the .exe, it brings up this "Error!" window: 

    Unhandled exception:
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access tp the path "C:/Program Files (x86)/Kerbal Space Program/CKAN" was denied.
   at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)

   at CKAN.CmdLine.MainClass.Main(String[] args)

    (or almost like this, I had to translate some words back to english)

    Sorry if this was caused by my total incompetence at installing things, but do you have any ideas how to fix this?
