I really should look into making a Electrolytes® addon. :hmm:

In reality Wales is a unit of deforestation. :leaving:

It looks like what we used to call styropor. I'm not sure that's the correct term (I think it's a brand name) but it's some kind of polystyrene foam. The main thing about styropor is that you can't use epoxy because the solvent will dissolve the material. The correct method is to use contact...

Oh! My bad. I was going by the drawing because it says the motor-mounts are made out of plywood. Manufacturers aren't always on the ball when it comes to updating documentation.

Plywood can become brittle if it's allowed to dry too much without some coating. If you bend it too much it will delaminate.

Heresy!!! You need to say 20 Hail Probes and do at least 5 laps 'round Brighton Beach in a Shuttle-A. :hailprobe: I'd make a template of all plywood parts before assembly because I've had problems with old plywood that had lost most of its strength.

I've been here since the M6 days, and this is the first time I've noticed.

Wow! I watched that exact video 2 days ago. What are the odds? :cheers:

On a scale from 1- "a lot" how murican is this? I'd still want one if I had a lawn!!!

I haven't used that mod so I can't comment on it. But the one I remember was using the mesh from this, and I remember using it to snap images of the far side of the Moon. It's slightly off-topic because this used the view from the focused vessel. I just wanted to point out that a similar...

I remember someone made exactly that for the Luna E3, but I can't find it now. I'm not sure it was ever publicly released.

Actually "inefficient" use of groups and/or textures can have a larger impact on frame rates than poly-count.

Exact reproducability is not going to be important for the "average" user, but essential for some developers. Would it be possible to use random(ish) local effects (gusts etc.) and then add a [Record local weather]? This way developers can use replays to replicate exact conditions.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Airways_Flight_5390 ---------- Post added at 11:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:30 PM ---------- Yikes!!! I've watched 3 documentaries about that incident.

I read it several times because it would have been top-notch sarcasm if you added a ";)". This is a former BBC employee @ ~½ the stall speed of an airliner.

What? Was that the giveaway for you? :lol:

Why not just use scenario editor to move the station to the DG?

I'm still poking around in The Long Dark update, and now this... It's getting hard to find time to check out every update. I will persevere. :lol:

I hear this same thing every time there's a bit of snow in London. "Planes land in snowy places every day. Why can't we buy some more snow plows?" I wonder when someone in the UK will figure out that it isn't the snow on the ground that's the problem. It's the snow in the air!!! If visibility...

Isn't that exactly describing relative humidity? And I can tell you from experience that 15°C/59°F @100%RH is a lot more uncomfortable than 32°C/90°F @36%RH, even if the dew points are identical. When we talk about temperatures around freezing (0°C) high humidity can be deadly. Around here...
