You guys wouldn't mind having dlc confliction in multiplayer or that KSP 2 will retail for twice the price as KSP 1 does and still has dlc?

Good god no! No stars behind pay walls. what would that even look like? If I set a course for a star I haven't bought would I get a pop up for the store menu or does my craft drift endlessly past a star that isn't there. That would be much worse in multiplayer.

Are...these ALL stars you can visit?
It's beautiful :,)
Its likely that not every star in the skybox is a physical destination but I think we will see new star systems added to the game overtime.

THAT'S DEBDEB! If my theories are correct. Well, I'm theorizing DebDeb has Two debs in it because it has two suns. Deb one, and deb two. I might not be correct but i'm really thinking i am.
Its a good guess, naming twin stars DedDeb sounds very Kerbal and with ringed gas giants and SuperKerbins in this system its looking like a promising destination and I would guess that this is going to be Kerbol's closet stellar neighbor with how much we've been shown this.

I'm surprised that nothing was mentioned about power generation in the vast spaces between stars. Since solar panels can't absorb light in these distances I imagine nuclear generators would supply power.

At the risk of sounding dumb but how do you connect the rover wheels to the base? Its connection point is on the the top and I cant place the wheels on the side of the base. What am I doing wrong?

Hi there!
Even though this is an older thread, it is the top result when googling "KSP Saves won't load" so I'll put my solution here for visibility if that's alright :3
I have 1500+ hours in KSP and have had this happen to me 3 times now. Upon the most recent time I experimented around and found a few ways to solve this. The problem seems to stem from the game trying to load a wonky persistent save file.
For clarity this is a fix for career mode saves which says in green "Just Started!" instead of giving you your career stat readouts. When you click on the save to load your game, nothing happens. Not even a loading screen, the game just ignores you. That being said these fixes would likely work for sandboxes as well.
NOTE: Reinstalling the game will not help as the problem is in the save file for your game.
- Getting Started
All three fixes start with getting to the problem save's file location.
Open Steam -> Right Click Kerbal Space Program in the Steam Library -> Select Properties -> Select Local Files -> Select Browse Local Files -> Open the folder labeled "Save" -> Open the folder for your Career save which won't open -> Copy and paste everything here to a file somewhere else on your computer JUST IN CASE! :3
- Fix #1
From the problem save folder's location open the folder labeled "Backup" -> Copy and paste the second most recent persistent save back into the previous folder with all of the other saves -> once back in the folder with the other saves locate and delete the file named "persistent.sfs" (Do not delete "persistent.loadmeta") -> locate the backup persistent save you just copy and pasted in and delete the date in that file's name so it reads "persistent.sfs" -> Boot up the game and your save should now say your career readouts instead of saying "Just Started!" It should start no problem but with a bit of progress lost. -> You should also be able to access you manual and quicksaves to find the most recent save so you lose as little progress as possible :3
- Fix #2
From the problem save folder's location locate and delete the file named "persistent.sfs" (Do not delete "persistent.loadmeta") -> locate your most recent manual save's file ending in ".sfs" then copy and paste it in the same location -> Find the copy you just made and rename it "persistent.sfs" -> Boot up the game and your save should now say your career readouts instead of saying "Just Started!" It should start no problem but with a bit of progress lost.- Fix #3 (The Nuclear Option)Boot up Kerbal Space program and start a new career mode which you would like to replace your problem save -> Just after starting up your new career mode exit to the Main Menu then close the game -> Open up the problem save's folder as well as your new career save's folder -> Copy and paste all of your ships from the VAB and SPH into your new save's "Ships" folder from your problem save. -> Copy and paste a few of your most recent Manual saves from your problem career to your new one. as well as the most recent persistent saves from your backup folder (DO NOT copy and paste the "persistent.sfs" as this is most likely the problem file in the first place.) -> Boot up the game and open your new career mode -> From the Kerbal Space Center open the menu and try loading your saves you copy and pasted from the problem career -> Hopefully it should load just fine! -> Head back to the space center and Exit to Main Menu -> Your new career save should now say your old career readouts instead of saying "Just Started!". You should now be back on track with only a bit of progress lost.Hope this helps!
Thx for this tip Fix #1 got my file working again! Thanks to taking the time to answer this old thread its still useful years later!

Pretty easy. Slap on the engine. Include a pack of the cartridges. Launch, and enjoy. Note that it's an on-or-off thing, all you can really do is vary the charge size. It's not going to be good for fine control, so what I tend to do is toss an Orion as brute force propulsion, but run NTRs to handle the small adjustment burns. I used the ship below for a crewed Jool-5 mission.
What mod is that capsule from I've been looking every where for it?Disregard this I found out right after that its from this author

Wasn't that one of the most known complains about the first game? Planets being boring with nothing to do and nothing to see? I wouldn't want the planets in ksp2 to play the same, because there wasn't much play in the first place. Land, plant a flag, grab science, get out. The remakes encourage exploration, make you want to travel beyond the next hill to see what's there.
But about that last bit, of all things that surround you, nothing have changed in the last decade? Why is it off-putting to see progress, improvement? Even radical, but for the better? Several years ago I was very sceptic about the direction of some kinds of technology. I see now how stupid I was. Yes it was new, yes it was different, but I had no real reason to dislike it, and yet I did. Now I know to treat new things with open mind. If Minmus is no longer icy, because there's a good explanation behind it, I don't see why not. Not like it was going to affect my gameplay, and yet, with it being more scientifically accurate, some people may learn from it. I remember old video from the devs, I think one of the first, they said if the game teaches something, and encourage someone to seek for more knowledge, it's job very well done. And it's great.
If this is a common complaint its not mind, I always been able to find new things to do for each planet, thats not the same for everyone and the Kerbol planets didnt need some texture revamps. Dont get me wrong I don't reject the all changes being made I really like the new terrains of the KSP 2's planets just Minmus put me off because its drastically different from the original. I love the new experiences they're gonna offer, having Dres being a resources rich planetary body was exactly what I was hoping for and I'm glad Dres is finally getting some much needed attention. I would have preferred that the visuals of the Kerbol system remain untouched and just had the intersellar planets offer new surfaces. Like I said my complains are inane and as long as they play the same as in the challenges they offer it doesn't matter what they look like.

KSP 1 did teach us a lot about rocket science, I didn't realize how much I know it until I tried explaining it to someone else and they didn't know what are to me the very basic fundamentals. I'm glad the devs are putting a lot work in tutorials that are simple explanations. Thats something the original devs struggled to do mostly because they tried doing that far to late in the game's lifetime. I commend KSP 2 for introducing those tutorials at the very beginning and having more focus on planets is a great step up from the first game.

So you know Duna and Vall from KSP1. You've clearly noticed how different some bodies look in KSP2, take the Mun or Dres as an example. So currently there's no way to tell if Duna got some craters like she had a long time ago, or if Vall became slightly more bumpy.
After I posted this I saw some footages of KSP 2's Duna and it does have a lot more creators than the original so Its likely I'm wrong about Vall, she can possible be more bumpy in the KSP 2.
5 hours ago, The Aziz said:Oceans of what? For what I know, Eve could have bodies of liquid made of mercury. As for Laythe? How does lakes of Titan work? I don't think any liquid in ksp1 was specified, though I could be wrong. Not to mention countless theories about how Laythe is this warm so far away (internal heating, tidal heating, greenhouse effect etc)
Titian's oceans are frozen on the surface and are made of up of salt and ammonia. Laythe's oceans are pretty similar to Kerbin weather that's because of greenhouse gases is really up in the air. Eve's oceans could be very well be mercury or anything really. My point being that they don't have to be based in reality.

I can't help but to feel disappointed with the changes made to Minmus from a icy moon to a rock and glassy one. I understand the idea of making the Kerbol system more realistic in a new game engine but they have claimed in the past that they will leave planets the same as there were in KSP 1. It makes me wonder how they would change other planets for realism such as Laythe for having liquid oceans despite being so far to the sun as well as Eve having oceans while being so close to the sun. To me it didn't matter that the planets weren't realistic because they all have unique challenges. So I guess as long as the Kerbol planets play the same in KSP 2 it shouldn't matter what they look like. I'm complaining about inane things I'm sure Its just off putting seeing changes to the planets that have been the same for almost a decade and are now in HD.

@The Aziz I doubt that any of these screencaps are planetary bodies in the Kerbal system. The pics that appears similar Duna has too many craters while Duna is mostly made up of canyons , the second pic I would believe it to be Kerbin either from one of its poles or mountain tops, and I have been to Vall where most of its surface is level and glossy like glass there are hardly any mountain ranges that resemble the screencaps. I believe that all of the screenshots are teases of new exoplanets or at least are meant to be demos of terrains in the new engine.

I love the blueprints that are posted on the blog and I use them as starting ideas for my own designs. Which I'm confused about the blueprints for the Jool X Rocket and the Nova Rocket, what are the decouples shells for the KR-2L engines? I've looked up and down the parts and can't figure out what it is.
