Dear Forum Users, whether its possible or not I just wanted to put this out there. I came up with an idea for a plugin to make designing spacecraft cost money in career mode. let me explain. Right now we design spacecraft in ksp which all basically have a fixed costs: parts x costs of parts - recovered parts = cost of rocket launch. Now if we take the Saturn V as an example, a quick google search gave me that it cost about $1.16 Billion in today's money to launch 1 Saturn V. However the development costs of the Saturn V were an estimated $60 billion in todays money. That begs the question: Would it be possible to make a plugin that measures the time spend building in the VAB/SPH and have it cost 10 Funds per minute (for example). this makes designing spacecraft cost money. Also, if u launch an already designed craft u will spend marginal time in the VAB/SPH thus there will be none to barely any "development costs". A slider could be introduced that specifies how much funds one minute would cost so the mod is adjustable to any player. I look forward to everyone's toughts about this. Capekerbinaveral
