Vanamonde Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 If I could add a vote, I like the redder red for the new planet. Make it seem really alien and exotic, like Forbidden Planet-era science fiction. You know, back when TECHNICOLOR! was new and they were over-doing it a bit, but it looked awesome. I already like how Mun seems sere and monochrome, like a dead (but beautiful) world, while Minmus (to me, anyway) makes me feel cool and relaxed. If the new planet was that bright red, it would have its own personality suggestive of searing heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwhwilliam Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Sorry if this has been asked already, but already 16 pages in here Quick Flight Scenarios: Start flights from pre-set conditions, without interfering with your persistent sandbox save, and also save your own scenarios from your main game.Does that mean we\'ll be able to share these saved scenarios with each other, adding yet another level of \'modding\' so to speak to the game?

cardgame Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I really liked the extreme red in the picture showing the successful (hilly) landing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaydeeDem Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Maybe we will get a surprise update to coincide with the Mars Curiosity Rover landing Sunday! 8) Doubt it. Remember all the VAB stuff and IVAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananasword Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I hope the planets all show up as a illuminated object in the sky. Just like how minimus looks like a star , but ou can see it moves differently to the other stars and flashes.Otherwise without visual cues we might have to all start learning orbital math to figure out a way to reach these new planets. plus, I dont see the need to add more than one body. why not just add one new planet per update but make it sufficiently detailed so that youwont have to re-release it later because doing the full she bang for this update will most likely spell mistakes.

aceassasin Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 since the .17 update has been announced will there be any .16.1 or .16.2 or just .17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accelerando Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Would it be possible to use something like a variant of the MuMech cameras to capture zoomed views of faraway planets from our spacecraft? Or will they just be little white dots until you get 'physically' close enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EleSigma Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Is there an official name for the new planet and moon yet? Is it Morz, Murz or what? (You could name the planet Murz and the moon Morz.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gormanmod Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Our spacecraft are returning remarkable yet low-resolution images...(No devblogs yet, that comes after the move to vBulletin)Don\'t you worry about planets, let me worry about blank!Honest request. A habitable moon. And if the Travelers land there and take off their helmets, they turn blue and get sick and can\'t be used for twice the time. Just could be expanded on in future updates for all sorts of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinlacht Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I really like the new red. The old more red was hearthing my eyes and it\'s to much fantasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisition Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I liked the first red design, very foreign, the updated color looks abit like brown earth soil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gormanmod Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Red?Less red?Red?Less red?I CAN\'T DECIDE AAAAaaaEdit: It DOES vary considerably over the surface, though.If I may be so bold to ask, but what if you created a means to change the red over time? Like some sort of result of different sun angles throughout the year. Of course I have no clue how easy or hard that would be to do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paprika Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I\'m looking forward to the internal cockpit views, Maybe a flight to the mun or minmus without using the map screen would be possible! Thought about trying it at the moment but if instruments are visible in the cockpit it might be less like guesswork! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kacperrutka26 Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 I personally like the old red, it looks more original to be honest. It\'s meant to be a different solar system isn\'t it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickenbacker Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Eh, it would probably only be Morz with any fixes they have (like the Kraken and fuel flow), a 16.1... Now that I think about it, it wouldn\'t be too unreasonable, just unlike them.Maybe, just maybe....I\'d love to see an update on \'Mars landing day\', but yeah, I think that\'\'s a bit optimistic.And regarding your sig, I really like the Terry Pratchett version:'Give a man a fire, and he\'ll be warm for a day.

Yorik Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I noticed that the .17 Changelog doesn\'t list a job for danRosas, is he making more animations for EVA/IVA or did they just forget to list his project? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not trying to spread conspiracies, I am just very exited! Too early nuff saidI think that the .17 update might be a doozy because before, they said that the terrain engine wasn\'t capable of making new planets, so we would get a huge overhaul to that sector and maybe possibly Kerbin might change a bit.

Shadownailshot Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Ya\'ll so excited for a rover landing on a ball of rust. woopee, there\'s water there, of course there is, there\'s RUST, there must be water.But seriously, I am super excited for the new planet(s). I can\'t wait for the desert (mars-like) planet, I also hope there\'s one analogous to Venus, As I would love to melt in it\'s sulfuric acid.Too early nuff saidI think that the .17 update might be a doozy because before, they said that the terrain engine wasn\'t capable of making new planets, so we would get a huge overhaul to that sector and maybe possibly Kerbin might change a bit.The actually said the terrain engine wasn\'t capable of doing gas giants.

Warshawski Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Planets will be implemented! But that will be in quite a long timeNyet. In fact, it\'ll be quite a short time \'cause Harvester & Co. have more planets as one of their goals for this update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkman Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I personally like the old red, it looks more original to be honest. It\'s meant to be a different solar system isn\'t it?No. Announced 0.17 features include more planets, not more stars. Did you read the 'KSP 0.17 Update' post by Harvester? http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=17595.0The actually said the terrain engine wasn\'t capable of doing gas giants.They said something like that, but they did not say they can\'t give a planet a very thick and deep atmosphere and strong gravity. It would just not look very much like a gas planet until cloud layers are implemented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you read the 'KSP 0.17 Update' post by Harvester? http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=17595.0I think you\'re confusing the meaning there. I believe rkman is talking about the Kerbol system being a different one then ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
