The Warning's new album came out today. So it's gonna be that for a couple days.

It's the number of times someone has clicked the Like button on one of your posts. I believe the forum software can make it more complicated than that, but that's what we have it set to.

This isn't my picture, but we had two of these tables when I was a kid. We called it a "dump table"... and it turns out that's the actual name for it.

IMO, not at this point. Just learn what works well with the autostruts and you should be fine. Don't forget to throw some regular struts in there too where it makes sense (such as strap-on boosters and the like). If I'm not mistaken there's a mod somewhere that will let you set the default autostrut setting... although I personally haven't used it.

I was an avid KJR user for many versions, but I haven't used it in quite awhile. The autostruts aren't as buggy as they used to be, and once you get used to using them, KJR really isn't needed anymore. Typically I set it to grandparent on every part of the main body of the rocket, with the exceptions being the engines and root part set to heaviest. Seems to work well.

A lot of DRG again. The new content in Season 5 is quite enjoyable.

Well we might be dead but at least we know how many steps it took to get there.

I got one of those under-desk treadmills for when my desk is in stand mode. The cats are not amused.

Out of curiosity, what's the intended scope for this? Just launch pads or will it be possible to build colony buildings?

(This was before the rocket engines actually needed fuel. Yes, they used to be magic.)

No, I don't think so. If SpaceX wants to test the vehicle's behavior with an engine out (it's more than just decreased thrust), then they're going to do that. I have no idea if the engine out was intentional or not, but they're not going to refrain from testing something just because they're worried about what armchair conspiracy engineers might say about it.

I was never too into Delta IV but I will miss Atlas.

I've always been a fan of Valve, but even moreso the last couple years. They've dumped so much dev time into proton (mostly likely for the steamdeck) that I don't even bother to check compatibility before I buy games anymore. I don't remember the last time I even had to mess with launch commands to get one to work. Been a Mint user for 7 years now. The only reason I'm running the Windows version under proton instead of the Linux one is because I have a single mod that doesn't work with OpenGL. By default Steam will install the Linux version. If for whatever reason you need the Windows version, you just right click on the game in your library, go to Properties, then Compatibility, and check the "Force the use..." box. Then pick a proton version. If you don't have a reason to do a specific version, just grab the highest number (most recent)

System specs? The only thing the log shows is that you have a GTX 1050... and not even the Ti version. Just strictly guessing off of your GPU, I'm assuming your CPU is fairly underpowered for KSP and you're probably struggling with a very small amount of RAM. (Would also be helpful if you supplied the KSP.log)

Neither. When you buy KSP you get access to the Windows, Mac, and Linux versions. Just install the Linux version and copy your save folder over to the new install.

I don't want this. But I also don't want to not have all the NASA sets.

I was trying to wait for a sale but my friends bullied me into getting Helldivers 2. No regrets, though. Great fun.

Construction of the space hotel continues.

Easily one of my favorite views in the game. Been doing a lot of orbital construction with a shuttle lately.

As in the camera wasn't cutting out or the ship was in stable orientation? Cause I was keeping my wife updated in the other room and my lines were almost exclusively: "It's still spinning" "It's still spinning" "I don't think that spin is intentional anymore" "It's re-entering and it's still spinning"

Installed a tourism contract pack the other day and got an interesting contract: Space Camp! Done two of these now and it's nice to have something different. So I've basically been doing tourism stuff and expanding the ole' space station while I wait for some interplanetary stuff to transit. Have some random screenies. (yes they're thumbnails, clicking on it should open the full size)

The auto delete altitude of Kerbin's, what, 20-25ish km? I think that's too low. I fly a lot of shuttles and I like to get what I can out of the ET before dumping it, so I tend to eject it around a PE of 50-60km. Which means I have to ignore it (which I can't do), delete it manually (which I don't like to do), or watch it burn (which is fun but can get old, especially if the AP's pretty high. So basically I would like a way to change the auto-delete altitude. If this is a thing that already exists, I cannot find it. Anyone happen to know if this is already a thing or if it's possible?

Starting to think these companies trying to land on the moon should take a page from pathfinder's book and build the thing so it has to open up and will right itself automatically no matter which way it lands.

Moved to Kerbal Network. This sounds like something on Discord's end. I don't know if Discord servers have privacy settings to prevent hotlinking to images uploaded to it (IMO if they don't, they should), but that could be a factor. I would recommend using an actual image hosting service for sharing images instead of Discord. It might work to some degree and they might allow it, for now anyway, but that's not what Discord is for and therefore you can't really count on it always being a thing.
