AgentPaper Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Right now, the various pods and control systems seem to be very poorly laid out. You have some control systems that give SAS, some that give Reaction Wheels, and some that do both. You have some pods that have SAS in automatically, and some that don't, without any seemingly logical reason as to why. To simplify things and make it all more transparent, I'd like to suggest the following two changes:1) ALL command systems have SAS installed automatically. This goes for all the manned pods, the Remote Guidance systems, and yes, even the tiny little probe cores. They should also all have Reaction Wheels, but usually fairly weak ones.2) ALL control systems are changed to be Reaction Wheel parts, and named as such.This way, you don't have to worry about whether or not you have SAS installed, since you are guaranteed to have it installed on every ship that is controllable. It also makes the control systems easier to understand, since they all do the same thing, just in different sizes. This should help clear up a lot of confusion about the new system, and also allow for cleaner and simpler rocket designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaos_forge Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 The devs are working on it. Also:Based on feedback we've gotten, I'll be adding sas control to the probes. It should make things a lot easier for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THX1138 Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 I like everything as it is except for the lack of sas on the so called "stayputnik". If you want the piloted craft to have sas without a pilot then you should add a probe core. Other than that, the vab tells you what each pod provides.

Stoney3K Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Start by fixing the overzealous SAS response first, then we can start worrying about which pieces of SAS go on which part. SAS used to be a separate part in the form of the small and big reaction wheel modules... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snark Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 This is an ancient thread, from three years ago. Much has changed in KSP since then, making the original post irrelevant at this point. Locking the thread to prevent further confusion. If you have suggestions about reaction wheels or SAS applicable to the current game, feel free to spin up a new thread.
