Payload Shrouds

[tjsnh]

Would love to see some kind of payload shrouds in an upcoming version that didn't need to be built from heavy flatpanels. Just a thought.

Until then you can use procedural fairings or fairings from kw rocketry.

On one of the already-suggested sticky list.

Aye, fairings are indeed on the "what not to suggest" list, and there are indeed mods that provide them.

But I really don't like that list, because it doesn't say whether the items are on the list because they're already planned, or because they've been flatly excluded. I think payload fairings are "core" enough to a space program that it would make sense not to have to go to mods to get them, much the same way as it would be a little odd if there were zero liquid rocket engines as part of the core game and you had to go to mods to get them.

Edit: "Stack extensions" are on the "planned features" list, but with nearly everything on that list, it's marked with "citation needed"

Thread closed because as mentioned by others, this topic is on the what-not-to-suggest list

We're working on a better version of the list which includes that information, but it's a lot of information to work with.
