I ran out of space a long time ago

According to @EJ_SA, it was a major problem. I dont remenber the details, but something broke and it fell the last 5 feet to the ground.

@Snark beat me to it

The trailer was made by artists for artistic effect, not to be an exact representation of the game. There is a lot more wrong with the trailer, such as the orientation of the planets, etc

It's a game, not reality. Not everything is perfect, and frankly, rockets are not build and launched in a day. If you are concerned about reality, then KSP is not the game for you. If they use a new technology which may or may not exist in real life, then that's the handwaving which every game has.

Well, it IS a game, and while we may not have it right now (we also don't have antimatter), it is entirely probable that we will have it in the next 50 years or so

What was said was that they are currently using tools written in Lua for the game development, nothing about modding using Lua

It's fine, I'm using it in 1.7.3

We do know that metallic hydrogen exists, but its (so far) been made with supercooled,high pressure tools, and melts at very low temperatures

There will be. Among other things, you will be able to create colonies on Kerbin

Lua is what they are using during development. There is nothing which locks them to Lua, and it's too early for them to lock anything like that. And Python has it's own oddities

What makes you think it doesnt work? If using CKAN, you need to set all 1.7 mods compatible

Keep in mind that the mod needs to know where the icons are. This generally requires the code to be recompiled Edit: I just realized (silly me) that this was the mod's thread.

If you use the ToolbarController, it has code to read the files directly from disk, and gives the ability for the player to use either toolbar, without the modder needing to worry about supporting two different toolbars

If the icons are in the PluginData directory, KSP won’t spam the log, and the ToolbarController doesn’t spam either

They haven't said anything, but don't count on it

The ToolbarController will happily load 38x38 icons without any problems. I recommend to put 5em into a PluginData directory so that KSP won’t try to read them.

New release 1.5.1.2: Moved Textures directory back into the PluginData Fixed path for textures in code

New release, 1.1.7.2 Moved Textures directory back into the PluginData Fixed path for textures in code

Will be fixed in a few minutes

No. I believe that rask/rusk will be a special case, probably handled with some custom code for them, but this is only an educated guess

One of the things I'll be asking them tomorrow. But my guess is that Linux is a very minor part, they are concentrating on the main release. However, since it's Unity, and Unity runs just about anywhere, it may be a pleasant surprise come release day

I can think of any number of reasons why they won't want to talk about them. Among other things, if they say there are clouds, then many other questions will be asked which they may not want to, or can't answer at this time. We did get confirmation that there would NOT be weather, so no rain, wind, storms, etc

While we didn't see any clouds on the ground, every time we asked about clouds, the answer was essentially no comment.

You should update to the latest, some issues with the ulage were fixed, and what you are describing sounds like the problem. Latest should work on 1.6.1
