  1. I haven't been following KSP2 development too closely so forgive me if this is something that's already largely planned for KSP2, but I would really love some content or a DLC devoted around marine exploration. Aquatic alien environments are important future targets of investigation in space exploration, and I believe it would be great if this was reflected in KSP2. The content I have in mind would largely be focused on submersibles and buoyant rovers, although if IG wants they could totally expand to typical aquatic crafts like boats and submarines as well What would this additional content entail? Parts: Command Modules: 2-3 Crew pods, 1-2 probe cores, 1-2 habitat modules New Aquatic Propulsion systems (maybe some pure hydrogen fuel that can be generated with new hydrolysis parts?) Ballast & Flotation systems Structural & hydrodynamic parts Aquatic landing gear & new cargo/bay parts New lamps/lighting parts, cameras + monitor feeds (think raster prop monitor) Improved nuclear energy tech, fission too? (for deep sea mission power requirements) 2-3 new science parts/experiments Buoyancy system for kerbals on EVA Celestial Bodies: New marine environments/biomes/anomalies on the following: Kerbin Laythe Eve Gurdamma Merbel Icy moons (Vall + others) with a subsurface ocean that's many kms below, only reachable via deep canyon like cracks. Any celestial body that holds life should have that added in visually to create a more enriching experience for the players Kerbin: Modern earth like marine ecosystems. (coral reefs, kelp forests, deep benthic zones etc.) Vall + Other ice shell moons: Could have microbial-mats/stromatolite-like formations of chemosynthetic bacteria near hydrothermal vents It would also be cool to see a planet or moon outside of the Kerbol system that contains more advanced forms for life, something akin to Ediacaran or Early Cambrian life forms

  5. I have installed the new Making History expansion, but once I click on the Missions button, there are no missions to play. There were before though... Any thoughts? Thanks!
  6. Hey Commanders, I really love KSP but... am I missing something or could it be, that the DLC only supports english? I mean, the dlc-shoppage says the following languages are supported: Languages: English French Italian German Spanish Japanese Portuguese-Brazil Russian Simplified Chinese But ingame I can't find any option to change the DLC-Language and now I have a mix of german/english... and it looks like that everything that comes from the expansion is in english only. I've reapplied the steam language settings - nothing. I've reinstalled the whole game and set it to german - nothing. Just english. Is this a bug or a misinformation at the shoppage? If it's not a bug, please give me and the others correct informations instead of disappointing me, thank you Here a screenshot from what I'm talking about: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1330154126 Excuse my adventurous english, please Greetings, Paem
  7. Hello everyone, Over the past months, we’ve undertaken a huge endeavor to bring Kerbal Space Program towards its next leap forward. KSP is by now a mature game with tons of content and an immense modding community, which has devised all kinds of tools and creative additions to the game, so making something new and exciting for our players was a challenge that we faced head-on. We wanted to do something that could enrich the Kerbal experience, offer value to players, bring exciting new content and allow more creativity - all while bringing countless more hours of enjoyment. And with the 1.2.2 release we had a game in an optimal state to tackle an idea that has been in discussion for a while. We are thrilled and proud to announce Kerbal Space Program: Making History Expansion. This content filled expansion to the base game will include Mission Builder and History Pack. Mission Builder is an exciting new feature that puts the process of creating and editing missions in your hands. We wanted to give you the tools to get the sense of being part of a space program’s Mission Design Division by tailoring your own missions and narratives in a friendly and intuitive interface. Once created, you will be able to easily share your missions with the wider community. But that is not all, Kerbal Space Program: Making History Expansion will include loads of additional content to enjoy. This includes History Pack, which are pre-made missions for you to play immediately. You will have the opportunity to re-live historical missions from humankind’s own space history, all with that unique Kerbal Space Program twist! The pack will include a new set of parts and a new astronaut suit for your brave heroes. Imagine walking in the boots of the astronauts who witnessed the majesty of outer space for the first time or landed on other celestial bodies as the first of their kind. Keeping up with Kerbal Space Program tradition, Kerbal Space Program: Making History Expansion will be highly customizable and moddable. Key Features: Simple interface: Using an intuitive drag and drop node interface, you can easily create new and exciting new missions for yourself or others to enjoy. Creators can also add constraints such as time, fuel and parts limits; as well as unexpected mission events. Recreating history: Included in Kerbal Space Program: Making History Expansion is the History Pack. Players will be able to experience the trials and tribulations of the early days of Space Exploration on missions inspired by real life historical events. New parts: Aside from mission creations tools, Kerbal Space Program: Making History Expansion will have additional parts such as new fuel tanks, adapters, decouplers, fairings and command pods… inspired by both American and Soviet space programs! Kerbal Personal Parachute: Your astronauts will now be safer in case of imminent disasters with all new personal parachutes. So next time Jeb is in trouble and all systems are failing, you can simply eject him and activate his parachute. Then, you just have to hope, there’s an atmosphere to slow him down... Challenge other players: A new addition to Kerbal Space Program: Making History Expansion will be the concept of scoring. At the end of a mission you will get a numerical score to compare with your friends and the community. Kerbal Space Program: Making History Expansion is still in development and will be released as a paid expansion. Pricing and availability details will be announced at a later date. It seems as though our announcement two weeks ago was met with some disappointment, but we were just holding onto the good stuff. We can’t wait to see what the community is going to be able to create with this new creative tool within Kerbal Space Program, now more than ever with an enriched and diverse community of people from all around the world, who can now enjoy KSP in their own language! Keep tuned to KSP Weekly to learn about the ongoing development and upcoming details. Happy launchings! -The KSP Development Team
  8. Kerbal Space Program makes history today with the launch of its first expansion! Kerbal Space Program: Making History Expansion adds a wealth of new and exciting content to the game, including a robust Mission Builder that lets players create and share their own scenarios, and a History Pack containing missions inspired by historical moments in space exploration. The Mission Builder is a new feature that puts the process of creating and editing missions in your hands with endless possibilities. You’ll be able to customize your own missions to include launches, landings, rescues, malfunctions, explosions, repairs, and much more. You can set unique victory conditions, add exciting challenges, and place unexpected obstacles to keep other players on their toes as they play through these complex missions. Challenge others to complete your missions by sharing them with the Kerbal Space Program community! The History Pack includes a variety of pre-made missions inspired by humankind’s own space exploration. Now you can spacewalk, pull off a crash landing, and attempt to recreate some of the most memorable moments inspired by historic events. All with our unique Kerbal twist, of course. The expansion also includes a more than 70 new parts and astronaut suits inspired by the Space Race that you can use throughout Kerbal Space Program! Additionally, we’ve kept our promise that all players who purchased the game through April 2013 will receive the expansion for free. To redeem the game click here and follow the instructions.

  9. This pack is an optional add-on for the SSTU mod (here) that adds SSTU functionality to some third party mods, a M-1 engine (modified J-2 model) and a Skylab station core (these last two only needs SSTU). This only includes config files, no other assets are included yet. The mod packs modified by this pack are optional, the only dependency is SSTU itself. Here's a list of what's included from each mod listed: SSTU: Skylab-alike Station core, second Apollo SM variant with swap-able solar panels and M-1, F-1A, HG-3 and J-2S engines BDB: Saturn, Atlas, Centaur, Redstone, Juno, Jupiter and Titan fuel tanks, engine mounts and interstage adapters, clustering for Saturn and Centaur engines, and a 5 seat Apollo CM variant using the included internal. CxAerospace: Station endcap for tanks and stations. Bobcat Ind. Soviet Engines: Clustering for NK33, NK43, RD0120, RD0146, RD171, RD180 and RD191. SDHI Service Module: Service Module for SSTU Apollo and Orion. KOSMOS: TKS Station core (rescaled VA not yet included) and TKS/Salyut 4/6 and 7 Solar Panels for SSTU DOS-based modules (includes Tantares). Tantares: TKS, Salyut and Mir Station cores. Stock: Clustering for all stacking Engines. (broken, will be brought back) Dependencies: SSTU Module Manager (comes with SSTU) None are included with this pack and must be downloaded separately. Recommended/Supported: Stock Bobcat Ind. Soviet Engines Bluedog Design Bureau SDHI Service Module CxAerospace KOSMOS Tantares SpaceDock Download GitHub Repo GitHub Release Example albums: http://imgur.com/a/xt4ja http://imgur.com/a/FXPCs (station not included) http://imgur.com/a/4xbs7 (station not included) Changelog: Special Thanks to: @Shadowmage - For making SSTU and helping me out while doing this pack (and for being patient while I bugged him about a ton of stuff and not telling me to go do a certain thing myself) @CobaltWolf @VenomousRequiem and @Jso - For making BDB @Beale - For making Tantares and helping me out with matching colors for the Tantares-alike repaint @cxg2827 - For making CxAerospace @CardBoardBoxProcessor - For making KOSMOS @sumghai - For making SDHI @BobCat - For his Engines @Pak and @CobaltWolf - For helping me out on making the Orion repaint and sharing some of their assets. Q&A: Q: Do I really need SSTU to use this? A: I guess the name of the pack has something to do with that mod... but that's just a wild guess of course. Q: Now seriously, why do I need SSTU? A: To have access to the engines, tanks, one-part station cores and solar panels, and the most important of all, the plugin. Q: Do I need the other mods? A: No, they are optional, but you'll get more stuff if you do add them. Q: In one of your albums the Skylab has Raidernick's parasol panel, is it included? A: The panel itself, no, a node in certain top options to attach it, yes. I added said node just in case people wanted to use his parasol panel, but that is completely optional. Q: If I make a really cool endcap/station, can you include it? A: Sure, just send me the .craft file and the mods included. But be sure to not include anything with any module (animation, lab, solar panels, etc...) as an endcap option as these are not supported. Modules in a station core is ok. Q: Why isn't the Tantares VA decoupler an option? A: Because SSTU doesn't support modules in a specific endcap and have it switchable, hence why KOSMOS has a separate part with the VA adapter, there's no option with extra solar panels like Spektr, and BDB's interstages doesn't have the solid rockets working. Q: Speaking of BDB, why the BDB tanks have decouplers? A: Because otherwise the interstage adapters would be mostly useless. Q: And why didn't you include a decoupler module to the original SSTU tanks? A: To not mess with the original SSTU tanks. There is a work-around if you want to use BDB interstages in SSTU tanks, just place a procedural decoupler on top of the BDB interstage. Q: Can the interstage be split in two, like the real Saturn S-IC/S-II decoupler? A: Only if you use a separate part to decouple from both interstage ends, if you use them as an endcap option it won't work. Q: Why does the BDB mounts have only one node and some two? A: Because that's how the clustered engines work, they only use one node. As for the second node, that is present only on upper stage mounts, they have been added to attach interstages. Q: Yeah, but the BDB engines aren't compatible with them this way. A: They will be added in a future update, for now use SSTU engines or those included here. Q: I remember you had a SM with NearFutureSolar Circular panel and I can't see it, where is it? A: I had to remove it due to a sun-tracking bug in some of the NearFuture panels, the circular one included, once I manage to fix them they will be added back. Q: Why didn't you add Tantares solar panels? A: I tried, but for some reason they always made the parts using them invisible, so I was forced to remove them. Q: Did you copy this OP from your Nova Thread? A: I have no idea what you're talking about. *runs away*

  11. You paid what $20, 5 freaking years ago for a game with hundreds of hours of game-play and now EXPECT EVERYTHING AFTER THAT TO BE FREE??? Your like the old lady at the fast food restaurant that pays a $1 for a cheese burger and expects Gordon Ramsey to cook if specifically for them. This game has given Way, Way,Way,Way,Way,Way,Way,Way,Way, more back to its fans than any game I can think of in recent history. Yet you still find it absurd that after 5 years of free stuff they want you to finally pay for extra content! As a professional developer it hurts my soul to here some of these comments about Squad. Your more than happy to spend 40$ in add-on for some click-bait cell phone game, but when actually quality comes along you huff your chest and tilt your nose up at it like some self imposed uber game critic. This, this is why only crud games make money anymore. Why every game has to be free with paid add-ons, because its the only way you will give up $0.99 for 327 hours of gameplay. By the way, you would still complain about spending the $0.99 for 327 hours of gameplay cause anything less would be robbery. Even though you spent twice that much for a soda last week you didn't even finish.... It takes hundreds of man hours to create just one hour of gameplay. Game devs have to eat and pay our bills just like you. Don't like the game, then don't buy the expansion. But if you do like it you better sure as heck cough up that $15 for the DLC and not say a freaking word about how your not getting your moneys worth. Would you want someone at your job to suggest that you should come to there house and bake another pizza for them for free cause they ate the first one too fast?
  12. In the 3.75m category, we have: various fuel tanks, 2 engines, a few adapters, and..... Nothing else. It seems strange to me that with these fuel tanks and engines, there isn't anything to go with that. If I'm building a big 3.75m lifter, having a 2.5m probe core with a 3.75m fairing base looks stupid in my opinion. Why don't we have a 3.75m probe core? It seems to me like a very obvious addition that Squad somehow missed. To go along with that, why not a 3.75m crew capsule? It just seems to me that Squad missed out some really "obvious" additions. I understand that these parts were meant to replicate the SLS with its "the bottom part is wider than the top part" approach, but the 3.75m parts can be used in so many more ways than just that. So what do you think? Yes or no?
  13. I believe that KSP needs more moons than they have currently. It gets boring after a little while, and I already have OPM installed. I believe a potatoroid moon for Duna, a volcanic moon for Jool, and maybe a small ice and dust moon for Dres. That's just my opinion, though.
  14. I have managed to log 153 hours into this game. I am already setting up a mining operation, and besides the odd contract that required me to have engineers on a space station, I have only ever used them for mining efficiency. They do have a few useful skills, such as repacking parachutes, wheels, and landing legs; but I basically use them as filler. They need more utility, so here are a few abilities I wished they had: -The ability to repair the surface mounted solar panels. (Kerbals have a way of trampling them.) -The ability to manipulate the parts on a dead probe, like enabling a battery or toggling a solar panel. -The ability to make adjustments to parts that normally can only made in the editor, such as closing single use panels, or adjusting action groups, or changing the thrust of SRBs before they are fired. These three abilities could possibly fill the three empty levels and greatly increase the utility of engineers, however, It will have to be carefully balanced to prevent them from getting overpowered... Tell me what you think.
