A modest proposal(s)

[Buzzed Aldrin]

1. I'm sure this has been suggested before, and may be in development: the ability to transfer Kerbonauts between docked vehicles without EVA.

2. Some kind of in-game video recording widget.

3. Make fire and rocket exhaust much more visible over distance, as real life brightlight sources are. This may be outside of the capabilities of Unity, but it never hurts to ask.

1 has been suggested many many times.

2. Elaborate.

3. I don't think its outside unity's engine, look at Kerbol. Unless you are thinking of something else

1. if we ever get it, it would be nice.

2. would be fun for making our own version of the NASA tv style mission videos

3. would be nice, but, not something that we need right now, but later on down the line? heck yeah!

2. (Elaborated) Make the video record / stop one button on the keyboard so it functions like a screenshot, except it records video instead of a JPEG. Record quality settings could be adjusted in the settings tab.

3. That's an awesome idea, make the rocket exausts create a huge lightball and a big cloud of smoke.

That goes with the "planned" semi-persistent smoke.

Also add a basic smoke physics, seeing the launchpad sides blowing that lot of smoke will look awesome.

As this is an eyecandy feature, there is no problem in postponing it to the final phases of development.

The Kerbal Crew Manifest mod can transfer kerbals between docked vessels without doing an EVA.

The Kerbal Crew Manifest mod can tranfer kerbals between docked vessels without doing an EVA.

And does an excellent job at that.

Just get FRAPS/DXTory/Some other recording program.
