I'm quite surprised that a mod allowing for some building craft timelapses never emerged, and I'm clearly not able to do it by myself. Sooo what would it do ? I'm thinking that it might be possible to control the camera in VAB/SPH : a hit on a button would memorize the exact camera location and framing and another one would place the camera at the exact same place an framing. The user could then build his craft, let say, add a part "here", hit the magic camera button, take a screenshot, and go back to his craft, to add another parts, etc. This way, we would gather XXX screenshots with the exact same framing so that a Timelaspe actually looks like something cool instead of accelerated x16 videos that record all the process. I kinda like it, actually, but i'm a designer who take a LOT of care at each step and my craft usually takes about 15-50h to be done with multiple insignificant details that are not interesting or deadends / new ideas, etc. I really would like to get some proper timelapses. What I would actually do is... Shooting everything in reverse. Like, my last 50+ hours SSTO is now finally done, but there is no way I would start it again from scratch. There is multiple fine details that are a pain in the ass to reproduce, I would have forgot some of them, etc. Instead, I can dismount it, taking a screenshot at each step, and then reverse the video. But so far, I can't do that without being sure to get the exact same framing. I tried to use some trickery like switching from VAB to SPH and back reset the camera position and framing and it could be used, but damn... Also, a next major step would be something that help the... Dismount of the craft, like, moving the parts from the craft to the void, so that in reverse everything goes from the outside to the craft, automatically, but i'm dreaming haha :p Is this possible to control the camera in VAB/SPH, and to make such a mod ? Thanks !

You know how in games like Elite and No mans sky you can fly through space like you would fly a plane on earth and stop at will at your desired destination? Would that be possible to mod into Kerbal? Sure making maneuvers, precise burns and waiting years in game to get to where you want to is fun from a realism standpoint, but whizzing through space in a small cruiser and exploring would not only be more fun, but would also open new possibility for mods like "To Boldly go"

I am continually upset with the lack of larger adapters. It really puts a limit to how large you can build a rocket.
