HISHBN - How It Should Have Been Named

[KerbMav]

Should "Ore" have been named "Skratch" ... rocket fuel, made from skratch ...

[MechBFP]

Nah

[kerbiloid]

It should be named "Spice", as irl one can't produce everything from the same resource, it's obviously a hallucinogene.

If anything should be renamed, it's biomes. It's like they learnt the term from minecraft. There's no life on most of those planets. It should be terrains.

This is one of the most egregious examples.  Am i really to believe that not a single person working on the game brought this up at any time?  ...and, if so, did the lead developer really just say "eh, it's good enough."  It would have taken the most minimal of efforts to not make this mistake.  It's the little things, people...

Howabout giving the Mün, mun, moon, a difinitive, official name instead of everyone picking their favorite.

Mün → Muen

biome → geome

KSP 1.0 should have been named 0.91... or at the very least "KSP 1.0: Should've done beta"

 

I personally use geome instead of biome as well. We suggested it when 'biomes' were introduced, but alas, it fell on deaf ears.

Minecraft got the term from Dwarf Fortress.

Geomes?

[Pecan]

One does not simply 'play' KSP.

'Players' should be renamed 'awesome, dedicated, rocket-simulators of unusual brilliance and attractiveness'.

Although I may be biased.

Indeed. The brilliance and attractiveness are usual for the Kerbal Space Players.

I am digging-out an old PDF of Exploring The System in order to show Private Division why they should licence me to write similar Official KSP 2 books.
