My thoughts on 0.22

[Whirligig Girl]

How is it that the devs missed out on the fact that the music plays in a weird way? It starts out of nowhere, it plays in the scene transitions, and I would have thought they'd have noticed it, especially when some of the streamers on KSPTV noticed it before it was released. It is really breaking immersion.

On a side-note, thank you for replacing the "There is no science to be done in career mode" with some real flavor text, but I think Kerbal EVA Reports could use more variety. In LKO, I Always get "You have recorded your observations". Some generic but still descriptive and immersive text would be nice.

"You note that the planet is beautiful, especially considering there is not much between you and it, and nothing to get you back to your ship if your jetpack fails."

"It really is round."

"I'm floating in a most peculiar way."

"It may have been one small step for [first Kerbal to touch ground of Mun], but it's a Moho of a big leap for me!"

"It's like I'm Buck Kodgers in this jetpack!"

Also, first crew report on the Mun: "That's one small step for a Kerbal, One giant leap for Kerbalkind."

Something I would like explained is why nose cones help now?

I know SQUAD didn't redo aero or drag. (I think)

Anyways, Loving .22 so far!

I read somewhere (Reddit?) that the idea was that they lowered the vertical drag while leaving the horizontal drag the same way. So, they should keep your ship straight automatically, through atmosphere. They still have drag (and don't kill the drag of the part below them) but it's a step in the right direction.
