So, I started streaming KSP 2 this week. I have two streams under my belt now in which I first put a satellite, then an unkerballed rocket and later several crewed pods into orbit. Despite all the bugs, I only lost one kerbal in the process. RIP Bill. I've been designing NASA-style mission patches for these streams and wanted to share them with the community: I will be making more. I am currently working on a patch for my third mission to put a kerbal into orbit around the mun and then get him back home.

I have this problem, I think. My rig uses a 3080 TI, Ryzen 5 5600 and 32 GB of RAM. The game runs alright, GPU utilisation is between 65 and 90 %, the CPU never goes above 20%. When I stream it with OBS studio, as soon as I switch to KSP2, my camera stutters heavily and the game capture also starts to drop frames. OBS stats say I am losing frames due to rendering lag. Switching between encoding on the CPU or the GPU doesn’t matter. Unplugging my webcam (an Elgato Face Cam) fixes the issue. I managed to somehow fix this temporarily by playing around with the game’s graphics settings and OBS, but I have no idea what fixed it. In any case, the problem came back. The way the game doesn’t adhere to the graphics settings I change without a restart and this sometimes fixing this and other issues makes me think this is a bug with the game. I am using the latest drivers from Nvidia, BTW.
