Not to mention that re-using existing code given the overall architectural changes to the design would likely be very difficult in the first place. I am sure some existing stuff has been looked at and then re-factored and used again, but I would be very surprised if they straight up re-used anything. And anything being re-factored is unlikely to have the exact same bugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The videos that the KSP 2 team first posted said that they were remaking the game from the ground up. It's also common knowledge at this point. 7 minutes ago, Vl3d said: You never know.. That's either a screenshot of KSP 1 or a render of KSP 1. You can't use that as evidence for KSP 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has nothing to do with the "ongoing development." It's a silly meme you took as "referring to ongoing development." But it is simply a silly meme. Doesn't even mention KSP 2.

GoldForest Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I think this thread has gotten a little derailed... or a lot derailed... So, let's get it back on the tracks. I'm wondering how stable this giant plane is. We've seen that the wobbles are back, we can see the large craft in the rescent video wobbling due to the lack of struts. I wonder if they've implemented the autostrut feature already and if they have, how good it is at handling large planes, like this big boy.

TheTennesseeFireman Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) The “footprints won’t be there on day 1” quote I take to be acknowledgement that the graphics aren’t going to necessarily be the final version we see. Just because it’s not in the roadmap doesn’t mean they won’t be looking for optimizations and listening to feedback on what can be improved. Maybe my expectations are too low? I’m basically just hyped to see the game at all. Also it’s possible that they’ve deliberately made the clouds simple on Kerbin itself, given that it is the starter planet and no one wants to do their first launch in a storm.

The Aziz Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 The wings are fine, since they're one part. The connections however.. you can see struts in the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joking aside, not having to cobble together a mosaic of microscopic wing segments is going to give you some much needed rigidity back, regardless how wobbly the connection points between the wings and the rest of the plane are.

I know "NVidia" is basically used as a synonym for a GPU these days, but unless you have some specific use case in mind keep an eye open for the other team options, I was shopping around for a new GPU and I managed to find a 6800 XT for 80€ less than the cheapest 3070. 10 minutes ago, GoldForest said: Please, we're still going to cobble together a mosaic of microscopic wing segments.

Yep, but it won't be a requirement anymore for anything that's Space Shuttle or airliner sized and isn't exactly one of those two things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes more sense to spend the extra 100 for supiror performance. If you could find a 7000 series AMD for cheap, then I would say go for it since the 7000 series has the same performance as the 3000 series from Nvidia. True. I am excited to see what people can do with the new wing system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
