    I'm still alive folks, just to give an update lol. I started a new job and thats been eating up my time, but its also because Kerbin is just proving to be a righteous pain in the ass, but I have some idea of how we can get around this hurdle. 

    What that will involve, in the most visible sense, is not adhering to being an exact recreation of Kerbin.  Instead, I'm going to remove the ice caps as we know them (which are just huge sheets of ice in both instances, similar to Earth's North Pole), and replace them with new continents.  This will kill one of the biggest issues I was having, and also just be nice for a refreshed Kerbin. 

    In the same vein, we're also going to break up the supercontinent that is Kerbin's landmass.  There will be two of them in addition to the north and south polar regions. 

    The next big thing that will change is that KSC's location will change. It will still be along the equator, but it may not be in the exact same spot on that particular landmass. This is because in changing what Kerbin looks like, its just proven extraordinarily difficult to adhere to where the original location was without killing the new terrain, SO, we're going to move it to a new location. That might be as simple as simply picking the whole thing up and moving it more inland, or it might move to somewhere else entirely.  We shall see. 

    And the big benefit of going through this rigmarole is primarily going to be for the people who like to build submarines. I'm pretty adamant on getting interesting ocean terrain for Kerbin, and thats also been central to why i've had so many issues. 

    jeez ocean terrain? a whole new Kerbin? that sounds really difficult. take as much time as you need my dude
