Whirligig Girl Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Im MAJORLY hoping that clipped wings will still work. If not, every single sci-fi replica will die, since i NEED clipped wings and control surfaces for half of these replicas to work. Yes it isnt realistic, but neither are sci-fi replicas and in general futuristic stuff. Also, its most likely a 50/50 chance. on one hand, it is unrealistic (not that i care), but on the other hand its WAY WAY WAY more hardware intensive to do dynamic modeling of wings. Worst case theyll make them shielded if inside another part, but there will most likely be ways to glitch this so its not visible but game thinks its outside (such as wings inside a open cargo bay, with another cargo bay covering the open side).Still, im so keeping 0.90 forever as there are just way too many epic builds i have that either rely on the overpowered jets to pull off crazy feats (laythe roundtrip with a single 150 LF fuel tank), or relying on clipping wings inside hulls. I know theres a large subvset of the community that probably hates me for enjoying overpowered parts and clipping, but if you arent at all interested in replicating real life, then this stuff comes in handy.I think that clipped wings ARE realistic. IRL there's no reason you can't make a bigger wing shape! Sure in KSP It woud be a wing shape that is slightly more dense in some sections, but I certainly don't think it is unrealistic and I suspect it will work fine in the aerodynamics model.- - - Updated - - -So is there some actual 'Countdown' announcement or was that just a pointless tease?Looks like some pointless tease, but my MONITOR-O-MATIC Steamcharged Monitor Screen is displaying some countdown, but it's so blurrer I can't see the numbers. I think it might be the ANSAR (Ansible-RADAR) tracking of the station. I should really get around to cleaning the screen. We'll know soon enough!

Kylekov Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 So is there some actual 'Countdown' announcement or was that just a pointless tease?Maybe we will get another picture from Maxmaps today with 10 objects in which case we will know. I can't imagine he would start that hashtag knowing this community if he wasn't starting an actual countdown. If he did well I guess he just contributed to the HYPE!Anyone else reading into the fact that they have been missing blog posts which are usually super consistent?- - - Updated - - -from the Kerbal Countdown Thread: "10 more screenshots on Squadcast according to Maxmaps. 10 MORE DAYS?! 11 to 10.
