Just spit-balling ideas on how being made in low gravity could affect the kerbals. Another thought I had was engineers who grew in low gravity have less strength, meaning they'd have lower thresholds in EVA construction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense. There should be an option though that kerbals can train to increase their strength, at the cost of higher resource consumption Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t_v Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 this is sort of going off topic (it was talking about children but now it is about gravity) but I like the strength idea and I think that if you have kerbals in zero-G environments for a long time they will lose strength, making need for artificial gravity wheels. For children, I think that having them fit in smaller pods/ being lighter might result in people using them to optimize even more mass off of their crafts, at the expense of adult kerbals. so they would have to be really weak to counterbalance that.

Newgame space program Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I hope it takes the appropriate amount of years for widdlecuteadorablebabieswhoIcannotwaittosee to grow up, I do not want two year old pilots EVER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were me Id make it so kerblings only really existed in nursery modules and would become adult kerbals as they moved into proper living quarters. Maybe there’s training after that to fill whatever jobs and kerbalnaut roles you need, but Id rather that was automatic with the right modules too. This is part of the reason Id get rid of classes entirely. You don’t want to manually train hundreds of kerbals. Most things should just happen without sifting through endless menus. Im also a no on g-force implications. Just keep it simple. Edited January 19, 2022 by Pthigrivi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On that g-force thing… How about you could gradually up the gravity of gravity wheels, so you could have Kerbals that could actually walk on ovin? Other than that, I would like no other g-force things. They did say somewhere the gravity rings would have a use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
