The Aziz Posted November 1, 2021 Author Share Posted November 1, 2021 4 hours ago, wpetula said: @The Aziz In the recent KSP 2 Celestial Architecting video, there’s a shot where the devs show the different layers of Kerbin. If you look closely, you can see that Kerbin has continental plates and realistic underwater landforms. I’ll come back later and add a screenshot from the video to this post. I know which part of the video you're talking about (in fact I just found it and took a closer look) but I don't know what do you mean. It's kinda the process of building a celestial body they go through. From simple sphere, then more details, depth, materials, noise, to filling it with liquid. Kerbin hasn't changed that much, right? It has more detail on a small scale, but from the distance it's the same planet. In KSP 1 if you remove the water you're left with basically blue desert with occasional bumps and hills, but that's how most of the planet looks like. So of course there's more detail in new Kerbin.

So of course there's more detail in new Kerbin. Oceans are obviously not the focus Kerbal Space Program, but it’s nice to see that they will be somewhat detailed. In KSP 1, the land gently slopes toward a procedurally bumpy ocean floor. Looking at the video, Kerbin in KSP 2 appears to have continental slopes and abyssal plains. The drop off into the abyssal plains looks incredibly deep. Imagine bringing a submarine to the edge of a continental plate and diving into the abyss...Subnautica vibes. If you look closely at the detail of the ocean floor, there appear to be a few underwater mountain ranges and trenches to explore. I’m just really happy that the devs are giving oceans some love. They add a new level of exploration to the game. Edited November 3, 2021 by wpetula Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartGonzo Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Does anyone know which API the game will use? Dx11? 12? and / or Vulkan? (I'm hoping Vulkan will be supported because of it's excellent performance and compatibility) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

problemecium Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 This repository doesn't seem to contain any references to "Boom Events" or any information we have about them. What I recall off hand from the videos I've seen is that they will be the primary way off Kerbin colonies will generate new Kerbals. Spoiler I could speculate that they correspond to some kind of seasonal spawning in that on occasion a wave of new Kerbals will appear as something like the Applicants we currently have in a colony management GUI similar to the Astronaut Complex we currently have, but that's speculation and not actual data xP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Aziz Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 Correct, however there's a section there that says "population growth" and if I remember myself from a year ago, I didn't fill it because there wasn't much info aside from, exactly, boom events. We know about it as much as about multiplayer, let's be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Aziz Posted February 4 Author Share Posted February 4 Oh you mean this one. It could be anything really, even Moho at this point. It does look like it has few large craters. We don't know until it's confirmed (and I'm not putting any speculations in here). Like we did see these icy ridges and canyons, where could they be? Vall? Kerbin Caps? Duna poles? Eeloo? Merbel?

stephensmat Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I'm looking for something: I remember reading a while ago that KSP2 would come with FULL Keyboard/Mouse Support on Console; except I can't find it again.

As for KSP2, I don't recall them mentioning that yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What remains to be seen is how the unmodded play experience will be, as it's unlikely there will be much if any modding possible on the next-gen consoles.

Minmus Taster Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 @The AzizWhat do you think of the blue gas giant at the start of feature video 2? It's not confirmed but it does look like it shows up in-game right after see it behind the plush. Spoiler I know it could be a stretch to say it's the same planet but the patterns of the clouds look identical and the the ground that the Kerbal & the plush are in look like the same spot.
