Stock parts or systems I would like to see in future KSP releases


Recommended Posts

@sal_vager Looked at your common suggestions post here:

There were too many but did not find these that I will mention.  Some are already part of mods, but I think they are worthy to be in stock.

I will keep this simple as possible:

- Inflatable balloons that rise to the high atmosphere to do science. (or maybe you just want to replicate the Red Bull Stratos with Jeb or Val :cool:

- Propellers - Building planes in the SPH is cool, but how about helicopters? Or this same concept for drones in planets like Duna or Eve? This could make science contracts even more extensive and fun.  Using a rocket or plane to land on a steep mountain is fun and a challenge, but how about landing the aircraft on plain terrain and then launching your drone to the science site in the mountains?

- Extend the SAS to include an autopilot system (atltitude/speed/heading hold) to make mid-air refueling possible between two aircraft in Kerbin or any planet with an atmosphere.  An SSTO would benefit from this as a mid-air refuel at high altitude can help you recover that  lost Dv at takeoff.  I know this may be a part of MechJeb, but it's realistic enough to be a part of the stock game.

- Joints that rotate 360° - This would further open the game to building VTOL aircraft.

 

I was going to include more things, but they are too open to debate.  These are the ones I think could extend the game to futher practical applications.

:cool:

Would've taken forever to find those post you linked, will read through those too :cool:

Thanks

Edit:

Maybe that's the problem, too many "wish lists" threads, it's difficult to follow every single one.  I'd be happy if Squad launched a poll where we voted for features.  Even if the list of features, parts or systems were not part of my own.  I just want to be a part of the customer voice that shares ideas. :cool:
