Darth Badie Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Hello dear Kerbonauts! Update 1.2 has finished its Experimentals phase and we’re excited to announce the launch of the Public Pre-release. During Experimental testing a small team of experienced KSP players threw everything they’ve got at the game in order to help us catch as many bugs as possible, so that we could make the game as stable as it could be. Now we’re proud to say that’ve come to the point where we can finally release the open test build. This ‘pre-release’ test build is for everyone to have a go before we officially released the update and you’ll be able to opt-in to get the Pre-release builds via the Steam betas, or, for the first time ever, through the KSP Store. Naturally, you’ll need own a copy the game beforehand in order to access these builds. This opt-in branch will run for a minimum of two full weeks before the release date of the final update (the final release date hasn’t been closed, so changes may occur). To facilitate discussions of the Pre-release branch we’ll be opening up a temporary sub-forum for feedback. Additionally, a Pre-release project will be made available on the bug tracker to report bugs on. Furthermore, we want to help the modding community by making the modding API public. Click the link below and enjoy: https://kerbalspaceprogram.com/api/index.html Finally, and as promised, you can get Porkjet’s awesome rocket parts package files here (it has been updated with corrections of some typos) : kerbalspaceprogram.com/files/PartOverhauls.zip We’re almost there and we couldn’t be more excited. Stay tuned for updates and happy launchings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waxing_Kibbous Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 (edited) First impression: Very nice, things feel very polished compared to 1.1- great job team! After more play: smooth and solid, on Linux even! It seems like overall CPU use is down as well, I love it Edited September 14, 2016 by Waxing_Kibbous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThiccRocketScientist Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 The new relay and debug menu look awesome. For the past day I have been trying to make large ships that float around the KSC using Air Park. Imagine 100s of them around the solar system sending signals to each other.

Papa_Joe Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Game looks great. can't wait to start converting mods to compatability Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankenchokey Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Just curious, if there are updates to this branch over the next couple of weeks, how will they be delivered to the KSP Store version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superfluous J Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 (edited) I just downloaded and installed the patch from the store simply because Steam is down you guys are awesome for including it as an option. And I even started the game up in the spare time I don't really have now and it loaded just fine. Can't wait to give 'er a more solid try later.
