@initroot:matrix.orgrootinitIt seems like it's best to use docking ports to reinforce them 04:19:41

@initroot:matrix.orgrootinitWow the structural joints are pretty weak. That stretched a ton16:42:49
@jesse.mcgrath:matrix.orgJesseI was going to say struts, but there are plenty of struts17:31:49
@jesse.mcgrath:matrix.orgJesseI forget what my go-to alternative to struts was17:32:00
@jesse.mcgrath:matrix.orgJesseThat looks like a construction crane17:32:18
@initroot:matrix.orgrootinitIt's susposed to be a spin launcher18:49:42
@initroot:matrix.orgrootinitIt can only handle 150 rpm empty18:50:06
@initroot:matrix.orgrootinitIt's good for about 500ms dv18:50:47
@initroot:matrix.orgrootinitnot much on kerbin but perhaps on mun18:51:04
@initroot:matrix.orgrootinitIt has so many struts lmao18:51:28
@initroot:matrix.orgrootinitAlso the electric motors can only spin it up to 40rpm on kerbin. Hoping more elsewhere18:52:08
@initroot:matrix.orgrootinitProblem is I strutted it until the thing that breaks is the actual motors explode.19:04:02
@jesse.mcgrath:matrix.orgJesseI haven't tried a spin launcher. That's probably great for reusable low gravity stuff. What mass can that launch from Kerbin?21:09:39
@jesse.mcgrath:matrix.orgJesseI guess you could also use it for a piecewise launcher to get a big station too21:10:19

@nightmare_cz:matrix.orgnightmare czHi08:15:53
@harpercix:matrix.orgharpercixHello! In one week our KSP's association will do a presentation of KSP for students in a space engineer school. Some teachers use KSP as homeworks.08:24:32
@jesse.mcgrath:matrix.orgJesseThat's really cool. Out of hobby interest I had read some really rudimentary stuff of how orbits work before playing KSP, but doing things in-game really helped understand it.16:18:44

@balotofi:matrix.org@balotofi:matrix.org joined the room.14:18:05
@balotofi:matrix.org@balotofi:matrix.orgI need someone to take me through how to play the game. Having a gaming partner would really help14:19:36
@jesse.mcgrath:matrix.orgJesseI think KSP 2 will be multiplayer15:37:49
@jesse.mcgrath:matrix.orgJesseI'm not free for it right now. But there are a few tutorials online and Scott Manley has become famous for his KSP videos15:38:18
@jesse.mcgrath:matrix.orgJesseI'd say start with the game tutorials and I think campaign mode eases you into things also15:39:27
@jesse.mcgrath:matrix.orgJesseI think the progression is to build a small rocket that you can get to land near where you want, progress to suborbital, add parachutes, add stages, add crew15:41:06
@jesse.mcgrath:matrix.orgJesseDon't try to do it all at once, do it a step at a time until you feel you've got that part worked out15:41:34
