  1. I love the update, best one yet. I would like to see planets with tilted axes like Uranus and Venus and moons in a retrograde orbit.
  2. They have been in space since the 60's they should be in the game.
  3. I would like to see the planets having a tilt. To make landing more of a challenge, imagine Val rotating retrograde like Venus does, or a pole close to where the equator is on some planets like Uranus's near 90 degree tilt. Also one of the moon of Jool rotating retrograde around it, maybe bop since it could be a captured asteroid. As for science I would like to see a medical exam when the kerbal returns from orbit, perhaps some tweaks required for further safe exploration. For example you do a suborbital or single orbit flight when you start the game, collect science about the reaction of the kerbal's body and then use that research to create a safer capsule for longer duration flights. Perhaps a resource like elements that can be recovered to create atomic fuels, so say two trips to Duna and back allows you to make enough fuel to go to Dres or Mojo one way on a stock atomic engine. The basic idea being collect resources, spend money and get a fuel that makes the ISP double, repeat this till you get to Pol. Finally I will ask for this every update till I see it, a ringed planet.
  4. I should go check those places out. What about the ability to name places and geological features being clues for resources?
  5. With the latest update I think that Kerbin and the Mun look great. I had to land there again, it needed to be re-explored. I also think that Eve was improved as well, however I haven't landed there just yet. I would like to offer the suggestion of a prominent mountain rage on Duna. I'd like to see something like Olympus Mons. It could have a caldera at it's peak and lava flows at the base. Also the features should be so elevated that you have to land directly inside the caldera or on the mountain to explore it. Having real geography that suggests the natural forces that formed it would be a great way to indicate where resources are on all the planets. Real geography would also be an imputes to explore more of that planet. From the standpoint of the developers I think it would be possible to modify real geologic features by stretching, squashing, masking, and overlaying to create realistic looking extraterrestrial places. I'd also like the ability to name features that I have discovered within my copy of the game. I have provided a topographic map of Olympus Mons to illustrate what I mean. I don't think we should forget that we paid for these images with out tax dollars, so why not use them. This will take you to Wikipedia's Olympus Mons page. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b1/Olympus_Mons_Topography.png
