  1. It's a blotch of ink, possibly a spill, or maybe a period.

    Everyone hates Comic Sans. THAT MEANS THAT THERE IS A MASSIVE GLOBAL CONSPIRACY AGAINST COMIC SANS. WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Oh god, real conspircy theorists must be getting so annoyed looking at this

  2. Let's look at the two main arguments against it, in full.

    So, let's imagine Multiplayer. Yes, I know it will be a major design pillar of KSP2, but it will also be optional, and arguably noncritical since the first step would be to get the game working in Singleplayer. Now, using the same arguments used earlier, I will attempt to argue that

    1. Performance. Considering the amount of coding to do so, it would probably a monumental amount of code. I'm not a programmer, but I do know that all this code would be just floating around in Single Player, utterly useless. Anyways, I'm betting that multiplayer would be a thousand times more complicated than adding a feature almost half the player base would find useful.

    2. Development time. The devs have probably spent a large portion of these 2-3 years developing KSP2 focusing on multiplayer. Multiplayer would probably be an enormous endeavor to design due to problems with timewarp, physics range etc. Far more than multi-monitor support.

    Just my 2 cents.

    How is a really wide screen made of 2 screens any better than one screen?

    The problem is, as stated before in other places on this thread, it's for convenience. First off, I'm not aware that huge screens like that are actually on the market, and it wouldn't fit on say, your average desk. The one thing it can't do is allow you to do two things at once on different screens, as well as widening the original one.

    45%

    Also, 44%, 45% does it matter? If you want to know, we got that number from rounding up 44%. A percent difference really doesn't matter.

    If you dont want it then dont use it. If it has multimonitor support if you dont want it then dont use it.

    The main problem could be performance, but KSP2 will have a new physics engine, so I find it hard to see why it would be a huge performance hit. The other problem is that it might take a while to develop, but in my opinion it won't take long. I do agree with AlamoVampire though that major gameplay should come first, but if possible it would be best to have it at the start than bolting it on later, which could cause bugs, assuming it's added.

    Today, I booted up KSP, and I tried to search something. It was SO SLOW! This must mean that THE CIA IS HACKING MY INTERNET AND EVERYONE ELSES, SPREADING PROPAGANDA AND SLOWING DOWN INTERNET TO RETURN US TO THE DAYS OF COMMODORE 64!!!!!!!!

    It's just because a lot of people are using the internet at the same time.

    One of the biggest Twitter hacks happened today.

    IT'S A HOAX BY THE ILLUMINATI SPACE LIZARDS, AND THE REAL TWEETS WERE TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT THEM!

    How would you make poison (noun) /poison (verb) glue that kills you when it falls on your hand, and why would it be done through glue?

     

    I saw a dot travelling along the sky today. When I asked what it was, they said “an airplane”. BUT I KNOW WHAT IT REALLY WAS. IT WAS PART OF THE GLOBAL LIE THAT THE EARTH IS FLAT, and tHE SYMPATHIZERS ARE SHOOTING PAPER AIRPLANES INTO THE SKY TO TrIck us!!11111111

    It was a speck of dust floating right in front of your eyes, or maybe a jet from really far away.

    Today, I was in my room in the morning and it was cold. IN SUMMER. ALL THE SPACE AGENCIES OF THE WORLD HAVE CONSPIRED TO LOWER THE EARTH'S GLOBAL TEMPERATURE THROUGH SOME TWISTED EXPERIMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1!!!1!111!

  6. You know, ever since I was a little kid, there's always been one pet peeve I've always had: hanging up my clothes. I still hate it to this day, and I have no idea why. I mean, I'm fine with folding them, tossing them on the floor, putting them in a pile, sorting etc. but not hanging them.

    45%

    Which again, is still a sizable number.

    What if it were slightly higher, like 50% or 55%?

    I am saying, have said, still say: not now during run up to launch.

    Who says that this subforum is only what it's going to be at launch? If it's going to happen later, it'll happen later. If it happens at launch, it happens at launch.

    I think that if it ever happens, it should be at launch, but I'm not a programmer, so I can't be a good judge of that, but my opinion is that it should be.

  8. Another thing that irks me is that most alien craft are flying frisbees with a crew cabin on top and flashy lights, which is by far the most stereotypical "craft". As it happens, the person who initially came up with it was actually describing craft that "skipped on the air like flying saucers" became "spacecraft shaped like flying saucers".  

    Fun Fact: the US actually conducted experiments on a craft shaped like that, but the project was eventually cancelled due to the craft's inherently unstable flight envelope.

    Another problem is that with craft with a center of thrust higher than the center of mass (I'm looking at you, Star Trek), which I'm sure anyone who has tried to make a space shuttle replica has encountered, is that the spacecraft torques, sending it spinning end over end. In order to counter this, it would need insanely powerful reaction wheels. But if you have that, than wouldn't the spaceship be able to turn on a dime?

    What is the most difficult thing you have done playing KSP? Mine was docking using only 2 RCS thrusters :)

    Also, I just launched the first crewed mission to my station. Imgur Album

    Probably one of the hardest things I ever did was doing it with 2 RCS thrusters and on top of that it being a spaceplane, which screwed up all the directions.
