Mining for 0.20??

[diomondclaw]

This is probably a dumb thing to ask: at first I heard that mining was was going to be in 0.20 but now I'm not sure so can someone please tell me if that was changed?

P.S. I know that nothing is confirmed for KSP

[Tw1]

It is not. That was changed. It's planned eventually, but until then, you'll need to use mods if you want mining things.

[musicpenguin]

Yeah, Some people think .21 or .22 OR .23 but no one knows. Also, you said you nothing thats confirmed for ksp? Do not suggest multiplayer. Hope i helped

Mining is probably not going to be implimented in .20

(By the way, why is there a duplicate thread of this?)

[stupid_chris]

Mining will be implemented before 1.0, that's all we know lol. Same for career mode, although I suspect they plan to release it with 1.0 It will be in a long while anyway. But I think we might see ressource mining before the end of the year ^^

What we do know for .20 is that the knowledge base is being added for .20, which is the first major step toward mining. They did also announce that they need/want/are going to work on career mode is a major focus moving foward since they realized they hadn't really done anything about it yet.

So I'd half suspect we won't see mining even in .21, but maybe .22? I have a feeling that mining is probably going to be implemented in at least 2 or 3 more steps. WAG is that next we'll see resource mapping/scanning. Basically HOW to find the resources. That might not be in .21, but it'll probably the next iteration. Then we'll probably see the initial form of mining and resource refining/use. It'll probably take at least 2-4 revisions of this to get the "final" form. Or at least that is my guess.

I am betting that .21 is going to be the initial implementation of career mode. Though it is possible SQUAD may need to implement something else in support for implementing career mode in .22.

Who knows (probably not even SQUAD yet).

It'll get here. I am sad it isn't in .20, but we'll get there. Until then we'll just have to content ourselves with more cool stuff that we do get in .20

The only reason people expected mining for .20 was speculation by the playerbase, stop speculating and you won't be disappointed

[JaySmoka]

All that i can say is 0.20 will be an improved version of 0.19 :cool:

That's all I need.

EDIT: BTW I know, I'm a genius.

Or, it was expected in .20 because of this...

[Sir Nahme]

So you speculated it was in due to a developers screenshot of them working on it eh?

Where did you get this screenshot??

[Mishkin_007]

Where did you get this screenshot??

Here from a month ago.

And personally, I'm fine with kethane as my resource for now. Just looking forward to playing with whatever they ended up including for .20 and I'm sure there's stuff that we don't know about.

No, mining was a feature that was first supposed to be in 0.19 (before the decision to make smaller updates was made to get rovers out first), then in 0.20 (before it turned out it's going to take longer to implement it). This was announced by the devs, said on dev streams and shown in screenshots (one of he older KSP weekly's has shots of a mineral refining parts that's going to get added for example).

[Sir Nahme]

I recall the announcement for .19 but I recall no such claim for .20
