SpaceFace545 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I was rewatching the trailer and I noticed the orion drive ship's cargo pods were the same as the cargo pods on the duna rover. Maybe you can move these containers and attach them to your craft outside of the game, and also a purpose for moving cargo. https://imgur.com/W0tODZp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 There are containers also on the Jool colony ship, and no lander, habitat or anything useful at all attached to the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing that you mean this ship? At the front there looks to be a couple ssto's. They won't be able to drop the necessary equipment to start a surface colony. They could collect and ferry raw materials to colony ship that may have the orbital colony base hidden somewhere on it. From there, it can produce a surface colony base and needed drop craft to establish a surface colony. To the questionat hand, it's plausible that something akin to kis/kas would be stock. It seems plausible that ksp2 would have stock resource switching too. It's also plausible that there would be something akin to simple resource sharing. There's just not enough info at this time to make a determination of what features will be included in ksp2. But honestly, that's not a bad guess, it seems reasonable.

DStaal Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I definitely had the thought while watching the trailer that those were some sort of generic resource containers. (Note they are also on the lander at the end.) They could just be for non-fuel resources to build things using the off-Kerbin build facilities, but something KIS/KAS like would be possible as well. (Honestly, I really hope something along those lines is in the game: very little feels more Kerbal to me than cobbling together some ship out of parts of a couple crashes so you can complete your mission - or at least get home.)

I'm thinking something that is connectionless. Something along the lines of simple resources, pathfinder, mks. All have the ability to transfer resources without a direct connection. A lot more convenient for surface bases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattinoz Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 The lander that starts the ice world base at very end has 4 of the same pods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
