AtomicTech Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 An add-on for SRB's that let them gimbal using LOX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOXBLOX Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I was thinking about camera angles and stuff... If there are going to be cameras as science parts or something, then could we set them as our viewpoint? That way we could see exactly what Mission Control would see. I think it might be a nice touch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperspace Industries Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Hotkeys for retrograde, prograde, and other sas. A way to record in game videos, without the ui showing on them, but with the ui visible to you while you play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOrbitalMechanic Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Perhaps a "heat shield" paint color, so you can add custom heat shields to craft with the paint editor? It would add weight and cost, and potentially require ablator, but I think the potential of more heat-resistant spaceplanes would be worth it.

TLTay Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Could we get a landing radar part for use when landing in the dark? It could display the ground in a low fidelity green phosphor grid pattern or something on screen so we have some idea where we are in relation to the features around us. Bonus points for short range and conical fov. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be really nice, but not for initial release, because there is an easy workaround: Lights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny Kerman Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 (edited) A smoke canister to make visual land markers. Real small parachutes, to drop little things (like smoke canisters... ) Labels for the surface lights... So you can make a board to see the state of the parts controlled by actions groups. A gyroscope to have data about the angles around the vertical, to make autopilots easy to build, and copters easy to pilot. And a Dr Who electric screwdriver.

shdwlrd Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Credit goes to @The Doodling Astronautfor this. But the kerbals surnames are based on what planets or SOI the colony is based on/in. So if the colony is based on Dres, the kerbals from there would have the surname of Dresmen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOrbitalMechanic Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 How about the ability for Kerbals to stand on the exterior of ships that are under thrust? Currently they just kinda flop around when not on a ladder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember having an Pathfinder mod back before we had stock rovers. It was very easy to land because of the air bags. I even used it to land on airless bodies with an top mounted stage, it was often not needed to remove it after litobreaking as I was not very good at landing back then.

LHACK4142 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 I want KSP2's music to reference KSP1's music. Age of Empires IV does that with AoE 2's, and very well in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will have unstable orbits in proximity to Rask and Rusk to look forward to though. Sounds like work for the modders!

So say your land legs burn up on reentry but nothing else we could add heat resistance paint to add maybe 15%, 10% whatever the devs find balanced. Could of course be a mod though.

Staticalliam7 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 heat shield tiles that dynamically wrap around the bottom of a space craft - would make shuttle tiles easier wouldn't really be that hard to implement either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
