GoldForest Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I just watched the interview and saw that the new KSC not only has several different sizes of launch pads, with mobile launch towers mind you (Probably just aesthetic, no real functionality, but there are tracks on those towers), but it also has TWO runways. Yes TWO! My question now is... will the hanger allow us to build craft large enough to need both runways, or is it just aesthetic. If it's just aesthetic, then could someone please at launch port the hanger extender mod to KSP2 so we can make double runway wide planes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KerikBalm Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 (edited) I know of no plane that uses two runways, in fact I think that's a stupid idea. Instead I think that two runways would be interesting from a multiplayer perspective, simultaneous launches of 2 planes!

During the launch of the first wobbly rocket. Also, a plane launch Saturn V would have to be HUGE!!! Double runway huge. Wait for the rocket to start rolling and flipping over and pause it as soon as you see the runways. Also, are those helipads near the runway?!

MechBFP Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 The design will definitely be taking multiplayer into account, so that would be my guess as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but one giant plane able to launch a Saturn V is a nice prospect as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KerikBalm Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 You can do that in KSP already, or close to it: I have better screenshots at home, but I haven't uploaded them on imgur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I still want a MASSIVE plane. Double runway wide massive. I like my planes big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatGuyWithALongUsername Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 It also had about 4 vertical landing pads as well, right next to the runway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatGuyWithALongUsername Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Just make a reeeeeeeally wide double-fuselaged plane (stratolaunch style) and use both runways at once! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
