Will KSP2 come to consoles such as Xbox One X/S and/or PS5

I'm wondering do space events count what about empires I need to know!

I have played the Xbox version of the game for about a year now and I have really enjoyed it. I even got the enhanced edition for free and that was much better. But I started wondering if I should try the PC version. Now that I have money for it, I’m wondering if it’s worth buying again. The only improvements I know of are: mods easier menu navigation easier mechanics overall possibly higher framerate I can use a joystick let me know if there are any more advantages and if it’s worth another $40!

As says the title, i'm only really looking for the best of the best, so i have some requirements that the mods needs to fit in if someone has any suggestions that i haven't documented yet, they are: I would prefer for them to have no space engine textures, since it feels kind of cheap, at least for advanced modders; Most (preferably all) of the textures need to have at least mid or high resolution, because i don't really like looking at pixels or bad looking terrain, however it doesn't need to be 8k resolution or whatever, it just needs to look at least a little bit good; All of the celestial bodies added need to have proper descriptions on the tracking station, by that i mean that when i check the "knowledge base" i don't want to see a blank space with nothing written on it except for the usual stuff like, radius, mass, etc, since that is mandatory for any planet mod to work anyways; And it needs to have proper grammar on the descriptions, i'm fine with a few typos since that is basically unavoidable and i can fix them myself on the configs if i want to anyways, such as switching its with it's, missing periods at the end of a sentence, minor stuff like that is okay, although i would prefer the quantity of typos to be low, however major stuff, like entire sentences written incorrectly or even mixing up the description of one body for another that is in a different place (yes, that happens, although i only saw it once, and the mod was simply too good to not put here, hopefully that gets fixed in the future) kind of annoys me in a game about exploring space, i would at least like to have descriptions i can mostly understand and that keeps typos to a minimum. Here's all of the ones i have found that mostly fit into these criteria: Alternis Kerbol 1.7.3 Asclepius 1.5x Corelian 1.11x Dres moons 1.8.1 Eve moons 1.7.3 Galileo Planet Pack 1.12.1 Gameslinx Planet Overhaul 1.4.3 Ghekta 1.11.2 Heracleitus 1.12.2 Kronkus Planet Pack 1.5x Minor Planets Expansion 1.12.2 New Horizons Outer Planets Mod 1.11x Real Solar System 1.8x Xenonclave's Planet Collection Revived 1.7x After Kerbin 1.7.3 Before Kerbin 1.4.2 JNSQ Planet Pack 1.12.1 Kerbol Origins 1.8.1 Beyond Home 1.9.1-1.10x Blinding Light Levels 1.10x EventHorizon 1.7x Extrasolar: Planets Beyond Kerbol 1.7.3 Galaxies Unbound 1.12x Grannus Expansion Pack 1.12.1 Low Light Levels Blue 1.8.1 Low Light Levels Red 1.8.1 Precursors Planet Pack 1.9x-1.11x Seven Worlds Around Slippist-1 1.7.3 Whirligig World Planetary System 1.11.2 Endless Expanse 1.12.3 Other Worlds Reboot 1.6 Real Exoplanets 1.8.1 Strange New Worlds 1.8x-1.11x Are there any good planet/star pack you guys know that is not in this list? Thanks to whoever read this wall of text and have a good day!

Hello, devs. Do you have a plan to add a different types of weather on a planets with atmosphere (like rains or sandstorm)? And will kerbals need a protection of solar and space radiation for interplanetary flight, and can they get older or even...dead by radiation, dehydration, from old age etc? Will you add a food plants and toilets? Do you going to add an inclination of planet's axis? And another question, you said that you do not add concept of randomly broked parts in a flight, but what else can do the game more challenging? I think that it is important part of any mission, when you need to develop a maximum reliable system that can live many years of flight, parts that repaired by engineer can have a differnt more messy structure and it's very interesting looks and also realistic ( remember how many problems people have with a space stations in a real life because space station it is not a 2-hours flight to the Moon, it is a system that stay in orbit for years). Just think about it... P.S. Sorry if you see many mistakes, I'm from Ukraine =)

Hey, all. I never tried a slingshot maneuver and was looking for some tips on how to even begin thinking about it. While the definition seems simple enough -- using another planetary body's gravity to propel me further towards my target, saving fuel/Delta-V -- I'm totally clueless on how to put it into action. Using only stock tools (as I'm playing on the Xbox), what's the best way to plan for a slingshot with the Mun to reach Duna for example? How do I even figure out how much Delta-V I'll require beforehand? I was thinking the best way to plan it would be by trial and error in the Orbit screen, plotting burns until it gets to where I want. But if this is the best way to do it, it means I must have my craft already in orbit to begin with, right? Is there no way for me to plot this from the ground before launching my craft? And - only 1 more question, I promise xD - how do I know when is the best time to launch my craft - is it when my target planet is closest to Kerbin, or when the planet is a bit retrograde so it will be closest to Kerbin by the time my spaceship gets there; or am I'm overthinking way too much and the Delta-V difference is just negligible in both cases? Thanks!

I was finding any mods which can give me flight profile in graphical form like altitude vs time graph, acceleration vs time graphic etc. Like dude in this video https://youtu.be/nSDXLiynSDXLiydwCY I just died finding this thing but looks like it doesn't exist

If you have any questions about anything KSP related, post here!

I am thinking about Playing KSP with some of my Friends and now have these questions about the mods that exist: "Which is the best mod ?" Do they work over hamachi? Do they support other mods? How easy/quick can the server be set up? Should i suggest my friends, who don't own KSP, buying KSP1 or should we wait for the KSP2 Release? How does time warp work? How is the game performance with the Mod? How accurate is the syncing of the crafts? Can multiple players launch rockets with a dockable payload simultaneously from the equator and then dock them in orbit?

First for those who have remembered my old threads on coding I have decided to bite the proverbial bullet and learn python soon. I wanted to ask a few questions. First I have been informed by a mostly reliable source that Python can interface with hardware such as motors and electric "stuff" in general. This is true right? Secondly I have no intention of doing this anytime in the next year but is Python capable of making an AI of sorts. I ask all of this because I want to make a model rocket that has a full guidance system as well as staging system ect and I want to make sure before I put a bunch of time into learning this code that is it worth my time and is what Im looking for. Is this true? Finally are they any pointers that people can suggest to learning this language if it is really what im looking for.

So, I built this rocket and for some reason it crashes on takeoff. Anyone know why?

Hi I have an Acer Aspire 3 and REALLY WANT KSP I don't know/can't figure out if it will run it these are all the specs I know of Operating System--Windows 10 Home Processor--Intel® Pentium® N4200 1.1 GHz; Quad-core Memory--DDR3L4 GB (standard) Card Reader--SD Card Storage--1 TB hard drive Screen--15.6"HD (1366 x 768) resolution Graphics--Intel® HD Graphics 505--DDR3L Shared graphics memory Connectivity--802.11ac wireless LAN Gigabit LAN

I originally posted this on Reddit, but I was suggested to post it here instead. As you may have guessed, I want to make some mods for KSP. I plan to use Blender for my modeling purposes, and GIMP 2 for texturing purposes. However, I am still a noob at the whole mod making thing, so I've got some questions about the whole thing. 1.) According to the KSP wiki tutorial on making assets (click here for the link to the tutorial), it says I need to install Unity 4.2.2. I installed Unity 2017.3.1 instead. Will it still work, or do I need to install 4.2.2? 2a.) How do I import the adapter models? I'd like the parts in my mod to be able to smoothly attach to the stock parts. 2b.) Once I import said adapter models, how do I ensure it's centered properly? (It's more of a question about Blender, really.) 3.) If someone makes better textures or models for the mod, could I use those textures with their permission? I'm not the best at texturing, in fact I'm kinda bad at drawing. 4.) When creating an engine's configuration files, is the ISP calculated, or do you have to input it manually? Thanks for the help, the next mod I'm making is gonna be weird, nonsensical, stupid, and yet surprisingly good for space travel.

Hello reader, I'm kind of new to KSP and I really need help with these: 1. How do you put things into cargo bays? (If differs between types I need MK3) 2. Is there an easy way to land on a planet without all that math stuff? 3. Is burning just accelerating? 4. How can I build an easy space station? (ALL QUESTIONS CAN ONLY HAVE STOCK PART ANSWERS) Thanks for any help with this. -Ultra

Insert paragraph starter here. I have tried looking for a 1.2 version of the mod forever, but I just can't find it! At first, I found someone who said that RoverDude had updated to mod to 1.2, and that the link is in his signature. But when go there, it's no where to be seen! Then I went to the end of the thread, and I found someone who had seen the problems with the mod and tried to fix it, and someone else tried posting a link to the download. But when I click it, there is a 404 page! BTW the link is here. So can anyone please find a 1.2 download for the mod, or at least update one? Seriously I'm spending way too much time trying.

Hi, as some of you guys know i have a mod called Blue Kerbin Dynamics mk1 fuel tanks expansion and these parts have very un-stock alike textures on them. So how do i make stock alike textures? I use Blender for designing my parts and paint.net for the texturing. I am planning to get photo shop. So please could help?

Hello Kerbal Students!!! I was wondering what skills you want to learn about the game so that I could make videos based on your needs. I will start making videos next weekend because this weekend I have to do stuff with my family and friends. I have heard a lot of people don't know how to dock but still I want to hear it from you!!! (Sorry for my english, I'm from the UAE) Sincerely, HowTo:KSP

1. What does a completely dead white dwarf look like? Is it like a solid planet? 2. Are neutron star "fragments" a real thing? Can the "fragments" continue to sustain their reactions? 3. How big would a neutron star with the mass of an average-size planet be? 4. Do bigger stars have bigger habitable zones? 5. Say you had a binary-ish star system consisting of a massive star and a relatively low-mass star. Is it possible to have planets stably orbiting the massive star further out than the lower-mass star?

Hello my fellow Kerbal Fans, Happy Friday! My name is Christine and I'm the social media lead for Eucl3d! I was wondering if anyone has gotten their spaceship printed? If so, would you mind sharing your photos? And would you mind I posted/shared them on our Twitter? Thank you! Check us out at: https://twitter.com/EUCL3D Thanks !

Hi guys, I'm new and just joined the forum to ask if anyone has printed their ship on Eucl3d? I really wanted to print my ship, but I was just wondering if anyone has printed out their ships yet and how is it? https://eucl3d.com/games/kerbal https://eucl3d.com/games/kerbal/kupload Thanks.

I'll start: Can you give reputation? If so, how? If not, will the reputation stay the same?
