For Questions That Don't Merit Their Own Thread
Entropian replied to Skyler4856's topic in Science & Spaceflight
I'm pretty sure it's a convention that has something to do with LaTeX formatting. -
If you're doing it purely for yourself, all bets are off and you can do pretty much whatever you want with it. If you're redistributing it, you need to check the relevant parts of the license.

It's gotta be, even the wheel hubs are exactly the same.

For Questions That Don't Merit Their Own Thread
Entropian replied to Skyler4856's topic in Science & Spaceflight
From my very basic knowledge of aerodynamics I expect that the vertical stabilizers would still induce wing vortices(?) which will increase the drag. I'm by no means very knowledgeable about aerodynamics so I could be way off here. @mikegarrison is probably able to answer this question with detail and such. -

It's a closed Ritchey-Chretien telescope, so the barrel acts as at least a basic sunshield (it lacks significant cooling capacity). JWST and other infrared telescopes rely on a sunshield because they have to keep the body of the telescope cool. Hubble is a mainly visible light telescope, so it doesn't have as many problems with a warm spacecraft body. -
RSS and RSSVE need Kopernicus to run. Check that you installed Kopernicus and RSS properly.

I'm interested in using a mod for this in an upcoming cinematic of mine. I think I remember a mod that does this similarly to VaporVent, with toggleable parts that create the aero FX, but I can't remember its name for some reason. Am I going crazy or does a mod for this exist? Thanks! EDIT: Thought a picture of what I'm looking for would be useful. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturn_V#/media/File:Apollo_11_launch.jpg

[1.12.x] Parallax - PBR Terrain and Surface Objects [2.0.8]
Entropian replied to Gameslinx's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Step 1: download the mod and its dependencies Step 2: copy (or extract to in the case of zips) into Kerbal Space Program/Gamedata Step 3: load the game Essentially what CKAN does is this exact thing, but it also ensures that you can easily update your mods and not miss dependencies. It's really not as hard as you're making it out to be.- 3,131 replies

KSP with RSS Interplanetary Travels
Entropian replied to The_Peli's topic in KSP1 Technical Support (PC, modded installs)
An aerobraking maneuver at interstellar speeds is really, really scary for sure. I highly doubt that such a maneuver is feasible, but with all the aero and heating glitches going around, who knows what's impossible or not. If anything, I'd expect flybys to work better, but even then since you're traveling at such an insane speed it's unlikely you'll get too much of a slowdown. -

I definitely support adding something like that. I've used the stationary camera mode for things like this, but it's incredibly annoying and time-consuming to make sure that the camera isn't clipped into the ground (you can't tell if it is unless it's pointed at a low angle). A landing mode would make it far easier to deal with things like this.- 190 replies

If you're using Subspace time controls, just hit the blue (I think?) double arrow in the LMP tab, it'll sync you and your friend's subspaces.

I'm so happy to finally find someone else whose hatred of Catan rivals my own. Nobody in my family or friend group understands how luck-based the thing is.

I'm in Florida right now and should be able to catch liftoff pics if this thing happens on time. Hype!

[New] Space Launch System / Orion Discussion Thread
Entropian replied to ZooNamedGames's topic in Science & Spaceflight
I'm in FL right now for the launch and the weather is incredibly inconsistent. The Starlink launch on the 27th (I think) was really close, there was a gap in the clouds right as they launched with thunderstorms all around. It's insane how much it had changed from just a few hours prior. Standard Florida weather as far as I can tell xD -

@DocNappers I've been filming my next cinematic and I've several times needed something like the manual keypad control, but with smoothing. Is this a possible feature that could be added, if I'm not blind and it already exists? Thank you!- 190 replies
