Fix the KS-25 engines on the NASA parts please!


Recommended Posts

If anyone else noticed the KS-25 engines were ALREADY given to us in the NASA part pack WAAAAYYY back as part of the 4 cluster mammoth engine part in the rocket VAB.

NOW that 1.05 is out we can put KS-25 engine separately. They have the EXACT same thrust, specific impulse etc EXCEPT they GIMBAL much more AND look different (both plume and textures).

EIther we get rid of the mammoth and opt for a cluster mounting part to fit the individual KS-25 engines OR fix the mammoth itself.

You are forgetting they cost significantly more. The Vector costs 72,000 for 4, while the Mammoth is 39,000. I wonder what you are paying for with those Vectors.... perhaps advanced gimbal servos?

Granted but why do the same engines look different and have different plumes then?

Because... video game.

Squad already said they were going to be re-doing visuals and rocket parts after 1.1. Be patient. (And actually the Mammoth doesn't look that different from the KS-25, it just has smaller bells, the bell is not the engine).

That news alone makes me squee in glee. Rocket parts and pods ALL need a big make over--BIG TIME. I'm a patient man, I can wait!
