I loved KSP1, but this has a looooong way to go. Launch is just way overloaded with stat screens not needed. Rocket building well it could be lots better. If this dis-satisfaction keeps up it will be straight to my Company of Heroes 3 purchase real soon.

Not too worried here. I9-12900K 128 GB Dominator memory Z690 Taichi MB 24G ASUS TUF 3090 w 24G memory. But I am a nerd I was launching multi-thousand part ships back in .22 I plan to keep things up for my return in KSP 2. I am curious just how far it can be pushed.

Probably around .24 You had most of the modding ability that you have right now. On the flip side you had wobbly rockets, watching disasterous launches was just as much fun as making orbit. Once they fix the joint issue, they accidentally took some fun out of the game.

Paying attention to orbital vehicles. I had an SSTO in an early version. It hit my 1500 part space station traveling in the opposite direction. The plane oddly enough survived missing a few parts. The space station was badly shattered where parts would fly past you for over a minute when you got in the vicinity. Had to deorbit that monster.

Best one I ever got was Mama Kermin. Alas she was so short lived in 2015 she only made it into one screenshot before dying.

Fired my bad kerbals to eve. If they survive they would never get home.

Well mounted a rescue mission as you can see in the first image it did not start well. As for the rest of the day a rover just started morphing into a dragster with predictable results.

Fired my redneck rover to Duna complete with robotic drill stand and transport erector for rocket.

Its been a looong time since I played KSP. Trying to figure out an Eve return vehicle configuration. Frankenstein rocket hit 4000 m\s straight up out of Kerbin before engaging last ion stage. So we will see.

Alien Abduction: You start off with a few Kerbs abducted and dumped in a distant solar system. They have to build up escape to another and another etc etc. to get home. Don't tie the user to just one solar system. Go the no mans sky route and create do some random system generation.

Well a rover of mine never meant to return home was damaged in a rollover accident. There I was minding my own business when 4 sketchy looking rocks jumped out of the shadows and beat up my rovers solar panels. Well we changed the mission to return home to Kerbin in "Operation Drop Test". Things got sketchy but you can see how Jeb made out. The initial shot of jeb in pic 1 just shows enthusiasm.

Finally built a smallish science ssto that I am happy with.

I am kinda in the same boat for me though the small ssto's I loved are now the most difficult. The most basic small model I built is the following. You can build flying lawnchairs, but I prefer a degree of functionality. Here's a basic science ssto I am fleshing out. It's basically getting fleshed out as a dropship for laythe but it makes orbit around Kerbin. She's so basic the only parts not in the pic are the ram air intakes and landing gear. She flys out at a 20 degree climb. when it cuts over to rocket mode watch your apogee to 75-80 k cut engines, coast then circularize. Of course always fiddle around this tiny ssto is a pain to get off the ground and more so to fly, but can actually hit orbit.

Most Everything went according to plan today. Most........

MacGyver Kerman stick a two gear landing while the other two that snapped off explode in the background.
