More satisfying and realistic expolsions

[Helix935]

Now i am pretty sure that people write this off as low priority and i probably should have put this on Add-on Requests but screw it...

ok the idea is for much bigger and less well poof-y sort of explosions much like this very real proton crash below:

basically i would like explosions that include more fire smoke and maybe even small particles of debris flying out(not parts just some simple particle effects)

so that basically it...

Bigger explosions would certainly be very Kerbal-y.

If they were violent enough, would also fix that explosive decouple exploit nicely.

It would better if you emailed Squad it could actually possibly be in the next update. That is a pretty good suggestion.

Watching old Kurtjmac videos, I've noticed that explosions looked better in early versions of the game. No idea why they changed it.

If you actually play those versions, you'll notice that they are very laggy.

But yes, better explosions are a must before 1.0. Depending on the magnitude of the explosion, these could be a certain chance that an adjacent part will also explode.

Yes, better explosions. Not like the explosions used in the early versions (they did not look very realistic), but just bigger, brighter, and longer lasting, provided that such explosions do not lag the game to death. Explosions are such a big part of KSP the they have got to look good.
