Salt Flats on Kerbin


Recommended Posts

Earth has many of them and they are great for landing craft because of their nearly flat and hard qualities. I think these should be implemented because we could have a Kennedy space center and a Vandenburgh or White sands analogue.

We have one right near the ksc, there's also a flat area near the desert space center.

There is? I thought the dessert was just kinda bumpy

 

I'll try and get a screenshot of it when I'm back on the PC, but I guess do to the way the desert space center was put in, a large circle surrounding the dessert airfield is completely flat and devoid of ground scatter.

I mean like a place closer to the equator

As mentioned, the area surrounding the KSC, which is on the equator, is a huge flat area with no bumps.   When they introduced the building upgrades back in the day, the plains around the KSC were far smoother than the level 1 runway.   Might still be that way, I always upgrade it before even trying anymore.   The only thing you really can't do around the KSC that you would have to do at the poles is going for land speed records, just because the ice sheets are the size of continents.
