KSP2 Release Notes

My feeling is: balance it against stock - if it happens to be overpowered, so be it (Perhaps pointing that stock parts are overpowered?).
So basically, fuel amounts should be correct to stock ratios, and engines should be of a similar mass, efficiency and thrust rating.
I think the current parts are not balanced in this way - hence why they are so powerful.
Hm... "Tremendously OP"... Actually quite the contrary. Honestly, I play with Kscale2, but the rockets should all still work fine, however the current R-7's TWR drops to an almost unusable level whenever I jettison the boosters...

Sorry, I didn't know what prefix to but but... will someone please explain to me how asymmetrical launch configurations work? Like when the Atlas V rolls out to the pad with 1 SRB on one side and 2 on the other? How does it stay... upright during it's ascent?
-
Yep and yep, but for some reason the changes aren't being made when I load up KSP.
Have you tried turning your computer off and on again?
Is your MM plugged in?
Did you disable to pop-up blocker?
Did you try punching it?
Really though, I haven't a clue.

Please read the very first sentence of this thread
Ah, it says this is for RO, but it isn't stopping anyone from making a stock config.
WHICH, I did. Kinda. I just like... edited the .cfgs to be stock compatible because I was to lazy to deal with MM.
Works very nice! I made it 5m in diameter.
-
I think Tantares is already a unique mod, but if you were to make all of these new crazy sizes, then you've effectively made it so unique, that it hardly works with anything else, so honestly it's very conflicting.
I love the sizes that Curtquarquesso displayed in his earlier post, but what about compatibility with other things? The sized would be completely different!
Also @gerishanakov, you have Module Manager installed, yeah?
-
Please, god, someone make a 5m stock rescale and rebalance for this. That'd be so awesome.
-
So what you're telling me is that NASA only has one launch pad right now over in Cape Canaveral?
Functioning pads anyhow.

should we make the new spacex hanger at launch pad 39A?
There's a SpaceX hanger at 39A? Wasn't 39A for the Saturn V? None of SpaceX's rockets could fill those shoes.
-
So that's meant to be mounted on a ship, yeah? I wonder how long it'll be until someone just makes a giant tank to put it on.
-
Ah, yes, S^3 by my good friend Niemand303 is exactly what you need.
-
Curtquarquesso brings up some valid point, and I think all would probably work out very nice if you take his suggestion.
-
Oh! Sorry I've been so sidetracked lately!
I really like thos new two modules for the LC parts! Very nice! And the skycrane as well.
As for the fuel weights, you said something about just making the values to match the stock balancing system. Honestly, balancing it against stock usually works pretty well, so you should do the 85% one!
-
now that you mentioned it...

could work neatly, the problem would be the ICPS though... what if, in the case of these variants with a payload area, you made them just with the EUS and just the core, Jupiter-like?
BTW... remember that PM? just tossing out the idea, especially with the image above
Is that... an asymmetrical engine configuration? Will someone please explain to me how that works??
I know the Atlas V does that all the time...
-
(According to this book
it had an option of a cannon mounted on top of the reentry module.)
Heh... I barely speak a lick of Russian, but the pictures are nice.
-
Wow, this looks extraordinary! Would this work for RSS or is this just for stock KSP?
-
Well the only mod that has all the european launchers is Yogui87s European Historical pack. Problem is, none of Yogui87s Lionhead mods have been updated since 0.25. I'd be happy to maintain them. They are easy enough to update, seeing as most Lionhead mods are parts packs, which only needs minor re-balancing, node flipping and configuring the different engines.
That's be neat! You should message him. I already have an updated Probes pack that MeCripp provided me with, but you'd have to talk to him about that.
No worries about that though, I think it's rather see these rockets done! Real scale rockets are always neat. Gives you a perspective of how small KSP really is.

I think big Soyuz was a concept for an armed spacecraft. It was supposed to be a descent module that appears to be three times bigger than Soyuz, with a machine gun in place of the OM/docking port
Wait... "armed spacecraft?" "Soyuz, with a machine gun?"
I beg your pardon?
-
Very nice! I decided to try a few of these out tonight and ended up with this~

I assume Brethern referred to the degree of overdimensioning of the RTG. If it can function with half the power output of a new RTG, it can still function to full capacity after many years, until the power output drops below 50% of the RTG when it was new.
So like the half-life of the element decaying in the RTG?
-
Wow, everything is looking very cool! Now only if I actually knew how to do things in RSS...
-
It was shut down for several reasons. Don't bring this up again.
Pfft, okay, my bad.
-
Ah, okay.
Another question answered... ​FOR SCIENCE!
-
So, the Curiosity gets it's electricity from an RTG mounted on the back, right? I don't know much about how the RTGs work, but they degrade after time if I'm not mistaken.
How long will it take for Curiosity's RTG to degrade and have it's electrical system's grind to a halt because of this?
-
Zvedza Zarya spacecraft/Big Soyuz? It was a giant Soyuz reentry module.
"Big Soyuz" as in... like the same concept as "Big Gemini"?

Personally I think it looks like a Chinese Black Arrow.
