Lekiffer Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 (edited) Title says it all, it's happened a few times to me now ,it's hard enough building anything without vehicles glitching through the floor and being lost with saves corrupted (always stuck through floor)then you make it out VAB something usually goes wrong an uncontrolled spinout parts falling off stations just falling out of orbit..you get to your objective (somehow) then the game just deletes everything. I don't know anything about game development but these are just so game breaking and seem like such a simple thing to get right Its shocking I have to walk away from the game for a bit now too many hours just been invested then deleted.

MehJeb Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 Have you tried re-starting the game? I once had the same situation as you describe - but I don't "play the game" yet, i only bughunt for now - so it was no biggie, as I've already made all my screenshots to post in this section of the forum - so, since the game was drowning in bugs (I had several at once - vessels saves dissapear in VAB under various "Workspaces" + current vessel falling through the floor of VAB + launch\go button did nothing so I've [ALT]+[F4]'ed and then just decided I would start another game just to make a screen of no PE argument in map - and once the loading completed, I pressed Load just for puproses of checking - and all my saves were there =) p.s. the game is very early alpha and hardly "playable" at all at this moment, but let us hope that 38 pages of bug reports here result in a lot of fixing by next version release; as for walking away - it may be a good thing to do for some time, as for myself I figured I have like 40 minutes for bug-hunting every morning and reading forum for another 20 minutes in the evening, not much of a time investment but (hopefuly!) helps our favourite game to get off the launchpad p.s. there were definitely numerous topics with saved vessels dissapear (as well as KSP2 showing "stock" vessels regardles of "include stock vessels" option setting) and there is a solution which includes finding your craft files (.json), copying and pasting json right in the VAB, if that may be of help to you.

Lekiffer Posted March 10, 2023 Author Share Posted March 10, 2023 Ty for reply mehjeb ,I heard there have been layoffs and it wasn't exactly going at a fast pace to begin with, I suspect it will be some very long time. first time iv gone into early Access I didn't realise games actually released this broke so a learning experience for me.

MehJeb Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 1 hour ago, Lekiffer said: Cheeky asking full price for an unplayable game Are you sure the price for "full game" will stay the same? Usually, Early Access price is lower and upon release it goes up a little. I think they just measure how much of an idol is KSP as a brand for Followers of Jebediah cult - smart decision, now they can better estimate merch prices for future. I mean it is like Elder Scrolls 6 - if the fans offered early access today at $100 very many would go for it... how about $200? see? And why not - voting with money for how good previous games in series were is a great marketing tool, it motivates brand-holders to invest more which in result makes final users of the product get even more rich KSP2, then KSP3 or, for the sake of example, TES6, TES7 etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lekiffer Posted April 27, 2023 Author Share Posted April 27, 2023 I wouldnt be surprised if we see a ksp3. i tried the game today after a 6 week break 2 patches been added apparently i went to build a plane and every time i went to edit the wings one would flip so ones facing up and ones facing down ...not ideal for wings it wasnt a symmetry issue because they attached correctly but flip upon editing it took 5 mins for me to find the game unplayable . Ksp3 it will happen.... i dont hear complaints in the comments sections its just "oh i cant wait for this" and "i hope we see that" "i definitely want first person EVA with VR" (my kerbals cant even EVA yet), nobody is saying the game is completely unplayable .Even if all the features were added tomorrow the game still doesnt work ,the devs say report bugs and feedback ...6 weeks later it was actually worse wings never used to flip upon editing like that. Now devs talking about multiplayer and science ,new parts . what, sort out saves dissapearing sort out craft falling apart for no reason sort out loss of craft control sort out vehicles glitching through the floor and corrupting the vehicle save file sort out actually being able to land on planets instead of falling through them. These are the kind of things that need fixing before anything else is even considered its obvious to me, they will have a ksp3 and players will be left wanting forever is my guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
