mcwaffles2003 Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 (edited) ITT: Add images, clips, snippets, and whatever you have found with relevant data about possible new features of KSP 2. In red, I see 3 separate launchpads. Possibly this hints at the extent of multiplayer aimed for in the game. In green, there are 3 landing pads or helicopter takeoff pads and there is at least on more out of frame In yellow, there are 2 separate runways At the locations marked in red I noticed significant bending. These look like positions where decouplers would be. I'm wondering if the part count increase has something to do with this as everything between decouplers appears perfectly rigid in this clip Edited November 29, 2019 by mcwaffles2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what else to make of the blue glowing orb in this shot, though it is strange as any blue star should be a giant unless it is a theorized blue dwarf, if so, that would mean that the kerbal universe is far older than ours.

mcwaffles2003 Posted November 29, 2019 Author Share Posted November 29, 2019 This is a picture from the portion of the video where the project scientist is being interviewed. I do not, as an amateur astrophotographer, recognize this image, though I can be mistaken as space is very big. If this is in game perhaps these are systems that can be traveled to, or just skybox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand the spread out lakes definitely look fitting but theres no long river, looking at the map: These look promising, there's a river, on an east coast, and near(ish) to the equator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been said that star theory isn't going to kerbin much. If they add rivers leading to (or from depending on perspective) areas that look swampy or like river deltas, there are a couple other areas that can fit too.
