So we know that there was a launch tower in the original KSP but it was removed because wide craft clipped into it or sometimes collided into it and we're getting destroyed on liftoff. Nate said that in KSP2 the tower is back and it is automatically placed at an appropriate distance away from the craft so as to not interfere. 1. My request is to also have umbilical arms (could be just visual, not solid) that retract when we initiate the launch sequence. 2. Also having a short ~5 second countdown + animations and sounds for engines igniting / turbines spooling up would be great. 3. Frosting on rocket, ice falling off, venting, sparks, birds flying away, dirt on tower to show it's age? 4. I would love to have the possibility of replaying launches with images seen from multiple camera angles. 5. Modular Launch Pads mod had a lot of cool designs for launch towers and pads. I would like to see this type of diversity in KSP2. 6. I love launch clamps, they're very useful. Would like to see some diversity in this area also. We have seen the orbital versions, but how about some that retract by rotating, like the umbilicals? Also explosive bolts animations? 7. The smoke from the launch looks good and decelerates true to physics but the puffs could be blended better together. 8. Are we also getting working crawlers and an actual animation of the rocket moving from the VAB to the launch pad? 9. Launch tower custom design? Catch arms? Cranes? 10. Also what other details about the runway (longer and no more hitting the lights at the end of it), VTOL launch pad and launching sea craft? Please make launching rockets look spectacular!

krakening and stuck rockets
Commissar posted a topic in KSP1 Technical Support (PC, modded installs)
it krakens when i use [] to switch vessels. soimetimes also, my rockets are "stuck" on the pad. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=692108590 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=692108493 also, occasinal blackscreen http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=692108679 log: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8EAjKTlkqEqVnJ3aFktX1RaSVU/view?usp=sharing line 68952 is where the krakening happens -
I watched the rocket landing by SpaceX and got inspired to do something like that in KSP. Is there any mod that adds a landing pad near the coast of KSC which could fulfill that kind of request? Please don't suggest KerbinSide because it isn't what I am looking for. Thanks!
