@Felixhdz given how promises have panned out in the past, it is likely that the release will be early July, perhaps on the first week. Given that the Fourth of July is also in that timespan, there is a small probability of release on 4.7.2023 because it just happens to work out. This is only considered given their base is in the USA.
Have an orbit with a low inclination. You will then need to acquire the planet’s rotation period and calculate the apoapsis of a circular orbit with that same period.
Here’s the equation for period: T = 2pi * sqrt(pow(a, 3) / (G * M))
“M” is the central body mass, “G” is the gravitational constant (6.6743 * pow(10 , -11), and “a” is the semi-major axis, or the radius of a circular orbit. If elliptical, it is the longer of two axes. Rearrange the equation to solve for “a”.
@Tristxan you’ll find it in a file called Settings.xml. Go to the very bottom of the file and you should see a chain of every setting. Set physicsDistance equal to whatever range you want in kilometres.
@CloakPin that is not what I said.
Missile is on autopilot. Parent craft remains primary. Missile veers off target as if it was using primary craft’s orientation instead of its own.
@CloakPin here’s the thing: the missile has its own controls being monitored and adjusted by a programme. It is not possible for me to control it once it has left.
If my target is off to the right, the missile veers off to the right, but it keeps going because my craft is still not pointed at the target. The missile ends up doing a loop trying to veer towards a target that my craft is not facing.
@TomKerbal I meant an actual war game conducted by military powers, sorry!
Anyways, the way I define complexity lies between possibility and the calculation of said possibilities. The many combinations of a pack of skittles is just as insane as that of chess, but chess is harder to compute, making it more complex. However, a single result from a difficult equation (say, one for calculating the way space time curves in the presence of a Kerr black hole) is still complex because of raw computation rather than possibilities.
I define complicated more similarly to convoluted than to complex; something complex is at its base state whilst something complicated can be simplified.
@TomKerbal I wouldn’t say chess is super complex; rather, it’s size of board is what gives it so many possibilities, but the rules are simple. And yes, I like chess.
With a war game, a single warship can occupy tons of spaces.
@TomKerbal it was mostly just in context. It’s like chess is complex compared to noughts and crosses and a war game is complex to chess.
Although the derivation is a bit cracked.
I believe it’s because the game does not recognise hydrazine. It recognises all of the defaults and penthrite, and I believe that you can set your engines to any of those, but hydrazine is probably not possible.
@ElmerTheCat there are a few posts which introduced codes for betas. These codes probably don’t work anymore, but you can always try. If it works, 1.0.7 should show up.
@ElmerTheCat it’s an Apple app you can grab from the AppStore. It’s basically a beta trial software that allows you to download betas with codes given by the developer.
I have something to say on that.
Firstly, communism comes in multiple flavours, and not all of them have to be extreme. It’s like saying a firecracker is the same thing as a tank. That doesn’t mean the tanks are not still out there. No more politics from this point on, but I just felt I should point that out. Sorry.
Secondly, you are absolutely correct that politics should be completely left out of a space game community. However, forcibly silencing this or any kind of conversation will only anger people to eleven. I have seen it before and I do not want to see it again. It needs to be based on the community mindset, not the words of a select few who, in their defence, run the place. I do believe that your post bringing attention to this is a good start, but we need to be careful how we proceed from here.
I’m still gonna give an updoot because I do agree with the sentiment, but I strongly advise you to consider what I have said.
@ElmerTheCat ¯_(ツ)_/¯
