>Maxmaps got fired
edition

>What is KSP?
KSP is build-it-yourself spaceflight game, often described as a cross between Lego and Orbiter, but lacking the complexity and depth of both. In it, you're able to build rockets, satellites, rovers, probes and planes from a selection of pre-set components, and fly them around in space and around planets. While the base game lacks depth, with a focus on the poorly balanced campaign mode and abject failure, a very healthy modding community exists that has far and above surpassed anything the game's developers will ever produce, and serves as the main draw of the game.

>Can I talk about (Space Engineers/Starmade/Elite: Dangerous/Scam Citizen/Other things in /egg/?
No. There are other generals (such as /egg/, /edg/, and /scg/,) that will be a far better place for you to discuss your game. /kspg/ has more of a focus on more simulationist space games, such as Orbiter, Space Engine, BARIS, Take on Mars, Simple Rockets and (when /cbg/ dies,) Cities: Skylines and Open Transport Tycoon.

>Should I buy it?
No.
The general consensus at /kspg/ is that you should torrent the game rather than purchasing it. The developer, Squad, has repeatedly made moves that can only be regarded as anti-consumer and greedy. Despite being poorly made, lacking a proper development team, having literally years of unfixed bugs waiting to be addressed, Squad went ahead and decided to add just a couple new (mostly broken,) features and jump straight to version 1.0 without proper balancing and bug fixing - most likely just to boost sales of their already multi-million dollar grossing IP.

With their performance to date, it's clear that they do not deserve your money. If and when Squad begins developing KSP like the competent adults they like to play at being and stops acting abusively and manipulatively towards their community, we'll recommend people buy their game. Until then, we have decided that we cannot in good conscience tell anybody to buy this game.

ok, this has something to do with the order in which the addons are loaded.
moving the problematic addon up the list solves the problem for that addon, but moves the problem to another one.
luckily, the new problematic addon is something i don't really care about and i can easily live with it.

Our proposal is that during the Sun's passage through the midplane of the Milky Way -- the stripe of stars and bright dust that you can observe in a clear night sky -- the Solar System encountered a disk of dark matter that dislodged the distant object, thereby precipitating this cataclysmic impact. In our galactic vicinity, the bulk of the dark matter surrounds us in an enormous smooth and diffuse spherical halo.

ok, this took less time than expected, looks like the new version managed to make things faster.

this is my playground now, not really realistic as far as water placement is concerned, but realistic water usually comes with retarded levels of mountain height (i'm playing with additional physics penalties for trains that go on inclines, so high mountains everywhere would make the game extremely tedious) and general map weirdness, so this is as good as it gets.

Nice job generating hype Max, although if you look closely you might notice that it kind of looks like your rise to power perfectly mirrors the dying interest in KSP.

Could it be because it became stagnant and people subconsciously understood their $$ was no longer being used to increase development capacity?

Or could it just be because you're a shitty marketer who never prioritized any growth except your own waistline's?

start with this
https://wiki.openttd.org/OpenTTD
and browse stuff from the column on the right.
this will give you the very basics on how to build stuff.

as for playing, i suggest you start with a completely vanilla game, because it is very easy and forgiving for new players.
the main way to play is to build trains, but they can be expensive at fist, so just go for trucks at the beginning and focus on low-producing industries that are close together (trucks are awful for anything that is more than a few dozens of tiles apart).

go around and spam these little service routes between industries; the highest paying cargo in vanilla is coal IIRC, so look for coal mines and power stations and connect them.
take your time to look at all the truck lines you made and adjust the amount of trucks with the production level of your industries. Lots of cargo waiting at stations is bad (cargo loses value the longer it waits), lots of trucks running half empty is bad too (the cargo they carry might not be enough to cover for their running costs) so try to balance the situation by buying just enough trucks to make them run full and not leave much cargo waiting.
Industry production changes over time, so check on them periodically and adjust your vehicles accordingly. once you have a nice cash flow (at least enough to cover for the expenses of your first trains quiclky), switch to trains.

With trains things get a lot different, the best way to go is to make a network so you can fit as many different trains in the the least amount of tracks.
you can still go the truck way (lots of single lines connecting two industries), it is easier and not that more expensive than networks, but it is definitely less challenging and you don't get to experience the nightmare that is making huge junctions.
do the same adjustments you made for trucks and you are set.

once you get the hang of it, stard browsing the donwloadable addons and get what suits your tastes

http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=66892#p1085300
it is an heavily modded version of the game, you can read the mod list in the link. Those mods cannot be disabled, they are different from the downloadable addons and they generally make the game harder. The main reason i chose this is because of the ability to change the lengh of in-game days, since the stock game flies way too fast for me.

i strongly suggest you switch to this so-called "patchpack" once you are comfortable with your train building skills, it make things waaaaay more fun and rewarding,

i mainly focus on cargo, because i don't really get the way passengers work and i don't like dealing with them, but they are a good source of cash (you are literally flooded with them even with small stations) and you can use them to give you a jump start at the beginning.

while you are in the wiki, spend some time reading about cargo distribution, it is stupid complicated and it will make things miserable if you don't account for it when building.

oh, one last thing: if you plan on playing with addons that add new vehicles, DISABLE INFLATION FROM THE GAME SETTING. Seriously, inflation causes all sorts of weird shit with vehicle packs, disable it and forget about it.

The problem stems from the fact that they made all matter convertible to all other types of matter.

Additional problems include Roverdude's surprisingly effective logistics system, hampered by the fact that Squad does not give a flying fuck and released no documentation so you have to go to the scansat wiki to figure out how it works.

Also it's called ISRU / in situ resource utilization

>>121936971
I don't know but in the process of trying to figure out what you're asking, I came upon another question. What effect does time dilation have on the speed of light?

A beam of light travelling near a black hole will experience a slight bend from the gravity, but how does it effect the speed?

Do the photos move faster or slower? Or do we just perceive them to move faster or slower?

Is it not possible, using these parameters to either have or witness light moving faster than the speed of light?
>>

*photons, thanks autocorrect

>>
>>121936875

Tits or gtfo.
>>
>>121937436
Piggybacking off that, is it possible if a black hole is of the correct mass and size that light could become caught in its orbit, rather than falling in or shooting away? If you take c to be the orbital velocity of said object, that is.

>>121937269

One of the first things you think of about the speed of light in physics is why the speed of light is constant. This can easily be traced back to maxwell's equations which gives light a constant speed.
>>
>>121937964
fuck, I had no idea. That's fucking fascinating. I'll watch when I get home. Does that mean there is no relationship between photons and gravitons possibly? (I should do more reading/watching before I continue posting on this topic)

>>121938050

A bit late to the party, but here is my derivation. I don't feel like explaining nicely like I usually do so, yea you just get math today. Its pretty straightforward, I think. I used maxwell's equation that defines a moving magnetic field. Enjoy my shitty handwriting.

mu_0 is electric constant in vacuum, epsilon_0 is magnetic constant in vacuum. That I with a circle in the middle is flux, the E subscript denotes it as an electric flux. Basically the entire first equation says if a magnetic field moves around a loop in space, the electric field will change.

This is why the speed of light is constant. There is no possible variation, that is how fast an electromagnetic wave will move in a vacuum in every possible frame.
