Relonsk Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 In my opinion, the easiest planet to be developed in Ksp 2 will be Kerbol ( The Sun), Jool, because they just need to do some animated storms and put some atmopsheric pressure and stuff, and Dres, because it doesn't exist in the first place.

TLTay Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 (edited) Probably the sun, way too much dv required to get close, plus the temperature wouldn't allow it. Not holding my breath for solar winds, sunspots, or CME, but hopeful... even if they are just for looks and don't change gameplay. I'm hoping for a Jool with volumetric clouds, multiple atmospheric layers/winds/composition/storms, and maybe a rocky core. With all the asteroids it has eaten up over the eons, there has to be rock or something solid in there somewhere. Hopefully it will be more than just the green center around which some moons orbit.

Incarnation of Chaos Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Not going to lie; i thought by "Develop" he was implying "Build up a potential colony on" and that this was going to be a rather interesting speculation thread. Now i'm just sad xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like a much better thread. I wonder if there will be anything preventing Kerbin from being developed with colonies, if not, I will be making colonies on Kerbin, should be pretty easy. They've said that they don't have a funding system, but they've also shown a resource system, so mining will relate to manufacturing ability. They've also shown that colonies can have their own runways, so I look forward to developing alternate sites to recover 1st stage spaceplanes and such. Since I surely plan on rescaling the bodies and their orbits by 3-4x ASAP, it would be nice to have a facility east of KSC to recover 1st stages at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do test stuff on earth after all. Mun and Minmus is obvious targets here, also nice testing grounds as they are easy to resupply if needed. They are also very nice staging grounds like how Minmus is commonly used for getting fuel to LEO and to launch large interplanetary missions from in KSP 1.

Now that I'm thinking about it I could add a "let's make a technology demonstrator colony at the Pole" stage serviced with planes before I move my whole space program on the Mun.

I'd want a Pole colony just for the large sheets of ice serving as decent runways alone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
