I don't like torturing the computer like this

It's getting a good stress test. Seems to be holding up  i pity whoever tries to launch this thing.

This looks like overkill for most PCs, i really wonder how your installment doesn`t crash any other moment... I am very impressed by your benchmark of KSP2, i hardly believe there`s much comparable progress around in the community, at least i haven`t seen any. My own game is way lighter than yours for sure, i am carefully increasing the partcount on my station with focus on experience with the behaviour of the software. I love it and i hope we can go much harder in the future! Cheerz!

Holy. excrements.

[mattihase]

truly impressed you got something like this working.

[InterStellar_HomingPidgeon]

This looks like something straight out of the KSP 2 trailer! It is extremely cool and I will definitely try to make something like this in future!

Do you actually fly the parts to space, or are you just spawning them in space already
