  1. So i was trying to calculate my thrust to weight ratio (TWR) for Dress compared to the thrust to wait (TWR) on Kerbal. but the numbers just wouldn't add up. Because KSP2 says Kerbal has a g of 1 m/s^2 and that Dress has a gravitational constant of 0.12 m/s^2. I am not a rocket scientist (i will go study it next year tho) so tell me if im wrong with my conclusion. But i think all the gravitational constant indicators are all off by x0.1. bc the stats just dont work when you calculate them with the numbers provided by KSP2. For example the TWR on a 30 ton (30.000 kg) vehicle with a 30 kN (30.000 N) engine is 0.1 (when you look at the TWR in the stats). But if you do that calculation (Thrust/M*g (Weight) = Thrust to Weight Ratio) with the 1 m/s^2 provided by ksp2 the TWR ends up at 30.000/30.000*1 =1, witch goes in against what the stats of my rocket say. Because if the TWR is 0.1 (like the stats of my rocket say) the calculation should be 30.000/30.000*10 = 0.1. So either the gravitational constant is indicated wrong, or the TWR calculation is wrong (or its another factor). Please let me know your feedback on my calculations or if im right or wrong.
