RocketTurtle Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 So, after almost a year, I come back. I'm assuming many new people are here, so hi, I'm your local turtle, but anyways, what's changed since about .23 (I think?) that I should know of?But yeah, good to be back.

Thomas988 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Hey, welcome back! The family always sticks together, eh? Now we are in beta, version 0.90, and the full release (1.0) has been confirmed. Many new features in this massive update will be resources you can mine and transfer into fuel, scanning equipment, female Kerbals (the main one being named Valentina), tons of nerfs and upgrades for current parts, and much more. However, this update has been very controversial due to the fact 1.0's confirmation came out of nowhere. I was very surprised too, and many of us suspected there could be a monetary incentive at work here making the dev team quicken the release of KSP. In response Squad has said there is nothing making them rush and that all of this is on their own time.The changes between 0.23 and 0.90 are absolutely monumental in size, so I suggest looking each individual version up on the wiki. It's been worth it though, and KSP is awesome as ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been worth it though, and KSP is awesome as ever!I knew there was a lot. I'm interested in making some military-esque whatevers. But I'll obviously have to scrap most of my old designs.Also, I noticed someone made a tool that I've been wanted since I first joined, 2 years ago; one that allows you to create 3D models of your craft... has anyone tried 3D printing one yet?

But Squad announced a collaboration with Eucled to allow you to submit your craft, and if the correct guidelines are followed your craft will be printed, albeit at around $100-$200.

Couldn't you just take the model, upload it to Shapeways, and... yeah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mostly put it in general because I was asking what's changed, but alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
