Hate to Destoy your optimism but data is lost with this update a member of squad told me in a message can you send me a picture of your F-35B I tried to make my own. I got close but it never looked right Edited December 3, 2017 by Cheif Operations Director Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when the game is re-released, I'll make sure to get you a picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegendaryAce Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I'm hoping we're gonna eventually get rotator parts. With those, I could finally make a B-1B Lancer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, you'll be stuck with thermometer hinges and airbrake servos like the pure-stock crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their hitbox does the same, so you can use it to push other parts around. Combine that with thermometer hinges or weakjoints and you can actuate things. I think there was a variable AoA plane someone made that used airbrakes to great effect, IIRC made by @Servo. Also, someone made an aircraft carrier elevator, another person a crane… They're a very versatile part. Once you guys get a working version I expect great things from all the new engineers.

AndyChilly Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Not sure if this has been answered but are we assuming they have also worked on the FPS drop you get when you start to build anything of size? i feel like the frame rate drops well before it should on a next gen console.

Deddly Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 There is a performance improvement - that was confirmed because they were able to increase the graphics settings and have real shadows instead of fake ones. So far, we don't have any more detail than that, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay cool, I just wasnt sure if, the current issues with FPS were even considered an issue with them or if it was just accepted as a limitation of porting ksp to console.

Well, "fake" was a poor choice of words. But the console shadows are currently very low quality: Compared with how they will apparently look in the new version: EDIT: Source Edited December 5, 2017 by Deddly Added source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
