So let’s say they have no way of measuring the outside observer. Besides the insta rockets, they could be moving at literally any speed. Kinda scary thought if you believe in simulation theory.

Okay so I have a little bit of a theoretical physics question. I’m hoping to reach out to anyone who may be able to shed some light on it. I had a thought come up and I don’t exactly know how to talk about it but I’m going to try. You are sitting at your desk playing Ksp. You have a long wait time for a transfer window. You could wait the remaining time or use time warp. You choose to accelerate the simulation to the point in time where the transfer window exists. Here comes the fun part. For that time the simulation was under time warp, you and the simulation were in two different frames of reference. To you, not much time has passed, but for the Kerbal, it has been years. So here is the big question, given the kerbals reference frame, would the Kerbal be able to tell it was accelerating through time? From the kerbals point of view the outside observer has not aged one bit and yet it has been years for the Kerbal. I am ignoring the fact that kerbals don’t age as they experience movement through time by observing the motion of their solar system over time. Looking at the bigger picture, if we were the kerbals unknowingly accelerating through the 4th dimension, would we be able to tell? I don’t think we would because we would be in an accelerating reference frame with nothing to compare our passing though time against. I would love to get some response from anyone who could even remotely follow my thought process. I know the mods have to approve this and if you read this far could you try and push it please? That would be great thanks. -August

I Have loved kerbal space program for a while now and I've done many missions to the surface of other planets/moons. One thing that i have noticed with the atmospheric planets. When you land it still plays the music as if you were in space. I think it would be cool if in ksp 2 there would be different music sets for planets/moons with atmospheres or different music set when you go to other solar systems. This is purely an aesthetic thing but something that would really set forward the idea of landing on a far away foreign planet.
