Hey everyone, I wanted to share my thoughts on KSP2 and why submarine parts would make a great addition to the game. While KSP is primarily focused on space exploration, including underwater exploration could offer a whole new realm of possibilities. Just imagine launching a submarine down into the depths of a distant planet's ocean, facing new challenges such as pressure, limited visibility, and underwater currents. (it may not become that in-depth) The addition of submarine parts would offer players even more creative freedom in their designs. You could build fast and sleek submarines, or sturdy and able to withstand extreme pressures, instead of struggling with buoyancy physics using cargo bays and engines making your design ugly. the U-dunk-it part already has this kind of stuff in mind, like the spherical shape and small windows. Besides, it's already designed to be used in water. The inclusion of submarine parts would add a whole new dimension to the game, making it even more exciting and engaging for players. If it may seem too late or too awkward to just throw in submarine parts out of nowhere in future updates, I think the exploration update would be a great fit. I truly hope that the developers consider this idea and look forward to hearing your thoughts on it.

1. Grid fins. They would be a great addition and help enhance aerodynamics. 2. more heat shields. This would be great for atmospheric re-entry in sph ships, like the heat shield used by the space shuttles. 3. Bulding and customizing your facility. It would be awsome if you could choose where to place your buildings and customize them. 4. Custom flags. I think it would be great for ksp 2 to be able to upload a custom flag, this would go great with the new color customization that is planned for ksp2. 5. Make manuver nodes easier to understand. This one is self explanitory. 6. Kerbal customization. I would love a KSP avater creator, maybe there could even be randomly generated kerbal avatars. 7. Sandox mode planet creator. It would be AWSOME if we could create our own planets in sandbox mode. It would be cool if we could share our systems/planets in the workshop. So thats my recomendations.

The Oscar-B Fuel Tank hasn’t seem to have a texture revamp. (That I know of). So I’m wandering Squad, can the Oscar-B Fuel Tank get a texture revamp. The texture currently is kinda boring compared to the other parts. I’d like to see the small fuel tank shine a little more with some new color variants, texture revamps, and other things to make the part look better. So please Squad, please revamp this part. It would nice to see this little part have some attention. -Sorry for the terrible spelling and grammer. I’m fixing it.

I'm tired of having to use another piece or waste time on the bars to put the amount of fuel I want. If there is already this functionality in stock in some game or Mod would be happy to know. PS .: sorry for bad English

You know, I've been thinking around, its so cool the main fact that you can visit any planet, land on it and take of all the way to home... yea thats the issue, what if I want to stay on a planet? there's nothing to do with it, I could make a base and that would be pointless, and I was thinking this while I was playing an other game when the light hit me, I don't have the time to create such a big mod, but it would fit into KSP thematic and it would be just thrilling and exciting to design a vessel the best you can and create a base, it would have sense, so here's the idea.... First of, the actual "resources mining" mechanic would have to be diversified, lets add iron, rare metals, water, etc... the point of this its to force the player to have multiple facilities distribuyed around the planet or even multiple moons, on this point you could sell resources for money if you somehow land the containers on kerbin, making the contract useful just at the begining with increasing prices on development and high tech things. Next step, factories, biodomes and living modules, this one its easy, in order to build anything you need some sort of factory, to make the factory work you need workers and to have workers you have to feed them, so this would has to have some sort of balance, but this would be your main colony where, here, kerbals has to come from somewhere, in other words you have to bring them each one of them until you have come to the next mechanic because so far its just standar KSP. Factories need also resources, specially metals, propellant and energy, so here its where the real mechanic comes in place, in order to run a factory first of you have to dock a vehicle into the factory module, then press a "record mission" button where it will automatically undock then you have to fly to a resource mining station, dock, get the resources and back to the factory, once docked the game will record the resources used to make the travel and you can then assign the vessel to "patrol" mission making a virtual version of the vessel (not in game but simulated as a route, similar to rts traders to save memory) and each time it makes some travel it will add and reduce the resources from the stock on the factory module, this would automate the resources gattering avoiding getting the player bored with repetitive missions, then if you want more vessels on the same route you just have to create and assign more of the same vessel to that particular route, this way you could stablish a global market network, where you can also automate the travel to sell this things. And finally, the space port module, once you have factories, you can send the parts to the space port where you can build your rockets anywhere you like, even in orbit if you somehow managed to get the parts in there. With this you could exponentially do anything you would like, like simulate space tourism, create a growing colony, simulate cities on kerbin (since it would make sence that this routing system would have been already stablished on kerbin from the first day), and many other things.... Just thinking this would fill all the void and make some really interesting game mechanics,... hope you like some of this
