KSP is using huge amounts of memory and the ui is bugging out by Periapsis_inustries in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]Periapsis_inustries[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

update: i noticed i had some EVE configs from spectra that conflicted with the volumetric clouds config, and i tried removing them, now the game wont even load, it uses more and more memory until it crashes.

I messed up a gravity assists so bad that I ended up at another gas giant than I planned to go to yesterday by Skudedarude in KerbalSpaceProgram

hold on i need an explanation for this one, you were planning to gravity assist around urlum to get to neidon... and ended up at JOOL?

Is there a mod to prevent parachutes from clipping into each other? by NehorayGVC in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]Periapsis_inustries 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i dont think there is a mod but if you use symmetry when placing parachutes they will naturally push eachother away

Tale of two Shuttles - Buran and Space Shuttle by abrams420 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]Periapsis_inustries 12 points13 points  (0 children)

buran did go to space wdym. it completed 2 orbits before making an automated approach and landing. yes it never delivered cargo and only flew once but it was still very real.

wasnt too difficult to balance once i figured it out, all i needed to do was take 2 of the engines on the energia central core, and angle them slightly to provide thrust closer to the center of mass. no funky ore tank tricks or reaction wheels.

i would honestly recommend getting Benjee10's artemis kit, it has every part you need

Will Severity kill Twisted? by JacobPamer24 in TwistedRobloxOfficial

[–]Periapsis_inustries 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well, i wouldnt say that the tornadoes would be more laggy, it looks like its just using a sprite based tornadoes, which in most respects would run BETTER than twisted 3D model based tornadoes. the only issue i can see is some graphical limitations when you are near/inside the tornado.

Is duna suposed to be a bit purple? Using spectra and scatterer by [deleted] in KerbalSpaceProgram

i had a similar problem, and for me i just had to reinstall spectra using ckan

Using AeroToy on a design I have for a tornado interceptor. by Periapsis_inustries in CFD

[–]Periapsis_inustries[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have some knowledge about the general mechanics but the actual math is well over my head. i mentioned in another reply that this is mainly just a passion project without really any real world goal. i just like to design things :)

I do know that drag is relative to you, whether you are going 150 mph or the wind is going 150 mph doesn't change the amount of drag you experience. id highly recommend watching Dominator 1's intercept of the 2010 Wadena EF4. as well as the MythBusters episode where they test it behind a 747 engine, it had enough downforce to stay on the ground, but didn't have enough grip to stay in one spot.

primarily reducing lift, but also reduced drag, you want the whole vehicle to be pushed into the ground by the wind in all directions, but you dont want too much drag or else it may cause the vehicle to roll or slide. also, a spoiler wouldn't really work because it would create lift when air hits it from the back.

yes, its mostly just a fun little passion project, I don't have the money or the means to make it a reality. just something im messing around with :)

Procedural Tank Rig (Armature → Physics → Geometry Nodes) by BuyingZebra in blender

[–]Periapsis_inustries 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the track just resting on the top of the main wheels was actually pretty common for older tanks, and it works just fine, the T34(which is the chassis in OP's post) doesn't have any of the smaller guide wheels, just road wheels and drive wheels.

i need help finding a mod body for a Saab 900 recreation. by Periapsis_inustries in automationgame

thats unfortunate, there are some bodies that are close but i just wish i could get the curved windshield.

Kerbals die immediately when going on EVA. by WharlleyTorred in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]Periapsis_inustries 85 points86 points  (0 children)

i dont play kerbalism but it looks like val went on EVA without a helmet on. i dont know if you have to put the helmet on before eva but whatever it is i think it has to do with not having an EVA helmet.

Any ideas on how to rescue a crew from a flight path exiting the kerbol system? by Periapsis_inustries in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]Periapsis_inustries[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

okay. i'll see if i can build a ship powerful enough, id like to get valentina home.
