[Kerbals, what are they?]

That's the thing. they don't exist. We are all living on a simulated flat earth controlled by time travelling lizard aliens. Wake up!

Do you mean unmanned before manned then? :-)  I agree with that. 

 

[What do you NOT want in KSP 2]

Manned before  unmanned. I want to build stuff like small probes and sounding rockets far before manned spacecraft.

[Waiter, theres a _____________ in my soup!]

Eat the island and quit whining.

Waiter there is Minmus in my soup!

[Why do others caramelize sugar and potassium nitrate in sugar rockets?]

It tastes better, who wouldn't want a caramel fueled rocket. mmmmmmmm.

[Robotic Manipulators! Post them here!]

Yes, Robotic Manipulators. The big metal arm things on your shuttle and station. Not clear enough? Here are some examples.

Canadarm 2

Tiangong Robotic Arm

 

European Robotic Arm

Kibo Robotic Manipulator 

[Make a wish... and have it horribly corrupted!]

Granted but its a toy

I wish Canada could make their own spacecaft

[Make a wish... and have it horribly corrupted!]

Granted but the doughnuts are LOX flavoured

I wish I could have infinite wishes

You can now concentrate but every time you concentrate someone dies.

I wish I had a Buran.

Because some funny monkies ate fruit and got big brain. afther doing big brain monke stuff for millions of years one monke got bored and made video games. a few years later some Mexican flavored monkes made a video game about funny space sticks and astro frogs. then yet another monke decided to make fourms and thought fourm games were a good idea. the end. directed by george lucas.

Why is Walt Kerman wearing a hazmat suit for public relations?

I made a Kanadarm in KSP recently. All I need is a space shuttle I don't have to cheat into orbit!

Nice PFP. Both @Lancasterace and @Dr. Kerbal.

Xuzhou, China-XCMG (Chinese construction equipment manufacturer)

So have I for my fictional Canadian shuttle, the Thor-Class. Id show a picture if i could but surprisingly for the 13 year old who knows (basic) orbital mechanics yet has no idea how to post a photo :I

Not unless they have fundementally changed how terrain, atmospheres and physics in KSP 2 work.

Which considering they're still doing hand-sculpted systems and using the same physics just way better implemented I'd say this isn't going to happen.

As long as everything is on rails, changes on the fly like that are limited in their scope.

Now you could fake it, by applying a config on reload for every planet. But that's a lot of work for a largely cosmetic feature.

I guess so, but terraforming was never something i really wanted in ksp. I was just throwing out some ideas for those who want it but honestly im rooting for IVAs and colonies.

This would be interesting to see. As a game mechanic I think this would be a far fetch but i does sound lt lot of in-game time to make a planet habitable. 

Yes it would take a lot of time, but keep in mind how it would take hundreds, possibly thousands of years to colonize a real planet. and for a game mechanic it wouldn't have to be too hard, just choose from a list a features and have the right parts and over time the models would spawn, textures would change etc. but we will see what the devs have in mind 

[Easy Planet Modding for KSP2 Suggestion (Planet Assembly Building)]

Ehh, as a DLC, not so much. Maybe as a part of the colony creation you could terraform and change the features of a planet overtime (e.g. breathable atmosphere, plant life, water etc.). but we will see!
