3.75 meter item collection is incomplete


Recommended Posts

There is no 3.75m probe core, or 3.75m SAS module, or 3.75m docking port, or 3.75m cylindrical hitchhiker module (the mk3 isn't really shaped well for spaceships). I try to make ships for Jool, it rips itself apart when the engines turn on. I try to make ships for Sarnus, it rips itself apart while rotating before I can even finish building the thing. I've got a big ship docked with small ports, using small probe cores, and it acts like a noodle if I try to turn it around. 3.75m parts like previously said would be useful to most of us I think, can we get these in 1.1?

I think the biggest gap part-wise is the fact that we're playing a game about exploring a solar system with little green men, and have nowhere to put those little green men. We've got two capsules, five airplane cockpits, soon-to-be three passenger cabins, and only three parts (science lab, hitchhiker, cupola) for building manned interplanetary vehicles, bases, and stations- arguably half the game! We literally have as many kinds of ladder as we have parts to build those things!

There is no "flat" adapter 2.5 to 3.75 nor "fuelled" adapters.

Beyond that, there's a lot of itemization possible with 3.75m as well -- n-way symetry 3.75 -> 1.25m adapters (engine bases, anyone?) Take the 3.75m hitchhiker's module, seats what? 16 kerbals? How about a half height one for 8? Quarter height one for 4?

Thin probe-core would be nice, same with the SAS and docking port module...

Heck, on the mod front, I'd love me some 3.5m universal storage rings (+ a mass rebalance)... a 3.75m ion engine, 3.75m nuclear engine (heck, 2.5m versions would be nice too!), a 3.75m variant of the poodle?

Some of these are going to be pretty necessary if we ever get 5m parts stock.

I'd argue it's more than half the game. I've said it before, this game is turning into a flight simulator rather than a space game. The coming update only reinforces this.

It's about time we got some space station parts, especially a larger "hitchhiker" type in the 3.75 metre group.
