Outer Planets Mod for KSP2?


Klock

Recommended Posts

Out of curiosity, is anyone considering an Outer Planets Mod for KSP2?  Was an "essential" mod for me under KSP1...I almost hoped that KSP2 would incorporate the extra planets but that appears not to be the case.  Of course, when they get to extra-Kerbolar systems, it's not as big a deal, but...for me, seemed like the planet system was incomplete.  Like: why have a Duna that's Mars and an Eve that's Venus and a Jool which is Jupiter when you don't have a Saturn, Neptune, or Uranus?  Sure...there's an arguable Pluto but...that's not even a planet by our new standards, heh.

I'm guessing it's a couple of factors potentially about the mod:

- Planet mods aren't stable (Kerbal 2.5 notwithstanding)?
- KSP2 modding isn't stable?
- No desire to mess with planets yet?

Modding itself is in a very good place right now, I'd personally say, and there's definitely desire for planet mods. However, the biggest thing standing in the way of any actual planet packs (containing new planets, not just modifying the properties of the existing ones, like the rescale mod) is that we have no clue how to do it. There have been multiple people trying to get it to work and we just haven't been able to figure out everything without some kind of documentation or guidance from the developers.
