They said it couldn't be done. For a long time, I believed them. Until I discovered solar panels.

    Man there is something fascinating in making the rocket "think" Especially with such limits as you have here, "how do we make it think and know where it is, around its limited capability to know where it is?" It really has the vibe of some old missions with limited sensors

  • @1mariomaniac

    Lol you talking about how the rocket "knows where it is" makes me think of that missile meme. "The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't, by subtracting where it is, from where it isn't, or where it isn't, from where it is, whichever is greater, it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance sub-system uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is, to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position where it was, is now the position that it isn't. In the event of the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has required a variation. The variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too, may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was. The missile guidance computance scenario works as follows: Because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is, however it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be, from where it wasn't, or vice versa. By differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be, and where it was. It is able to obtain a deviation, and a variation, which is called "air""

    That reminds me of something I've heard once and said often. I don't quite remember how it goes, but it's something like this: "A programmer (is someone who?) spends five hours automating a five minute task." It adds up over time I suppose, but at times like this it's really not the point. It's a question of "hey, I wonder if I can automate this?". The answer is almost always yes.

I consider myself good at the game as I typically manage success from only a few tries and get most of my build complete besides a few minor tweaks on the first, but I really only work the stages backwards and overengineer what I need to ensure a surplus of resources. And most my my creations are simply to get to other planets, I don't often do much beyond go there and come back. This what you have accomplished blows anything I have done out of the water, and for that I must congratulate you. I have subbed, liked, and now commented.
