Offworld hotspots.


Recommended Posts

I know there are mods that add small cities, construction sights, runways for kerbin.
I want something like this off world. I'm not suggesting a new KSC on the mun or wherever. Whatever it could be, it shouldn't make the game easier.

I want hotspots on any terrestial body other then kerbin. A area where you would want to visit, besides the currently existing monoliths. Add more of those through modding.
Or create ancients alien ruins. I think the mun would be the best target as it's closest to home. but Duna would be a good candidate to.

Maybe it's possible to even create something like a cave. Maybe one hotspot per Biome for the mun, so you'll be wired and motivated to visit every place on the Munar surface.
Maybe add traps on the munar sites or on any other world, or extraterrestial spots where you can use your rod to go ice fishing on the poles of the Mun or Duna. Beware, you may catch the kraken.

Make the hotspot more beautifull with textures that accomodate the area.
Eventually such spots would look based on the creativity of the modder, but besides there being any spirit for the idea at all, maybe other users can share ideas about what to add and what world would be best suited. I leave the imagination to myself and everybody else. So please share...

This is something I would love to see in the stock game.  With a bit of randomness like ore generation.  Sites of interest that you identify with a scanner and can then visit, get extra science, and look at.  Everything from cryovolcanoes, to pools with multi-colored organics (say on Laythe), maybe a water spring or fumerole on Duna, a volcano on Moho..  etc etc. Just interesting natural features, a few to a world, to find and discover and enjoy.  Each is somewhat small but has a higher level of detail and objects then the surrounding terrain.  

Be great places to build a base. :)

If I remember right, back in the day Nova apparently got geysers to work in the game. I could see working cryo volcanoes, cliffs and strange rock formations working. I'm not so sure about normal volcanoes though, lava would probably be really hard to simulate. If caves were added to the game they could be a lava tube in a volcano complex.

Great ideas guys. Love to hear your ideas, things like that really support my general idea.

If you have more ideas that support the general idea this thread proposes then please share. If there is spirit we can make it into a poll so any modder knows what to specifically mod, something fun offworld that many want added.

This thread is quite old. Please consider starting a new thread rather than reviving this one.
