i don't think ksp will ever go galactic scale, that doesn't really add many new things [editline]11th April 2013[/editline] what would be cool is different nearby systems which have different fundamental constants [editline]11th April 2013[/editline] like mini alternate universes

[QUOTE=Eltro102;40247134]i don't think ksp will ever go galactic scale, that doesn't really add many new things[/QUOTE] The devs basically said there will be a procedurally generated universe.

but that doesn't mean it will be on a particularity big scale

[QUOTE=Eltro102;40247170]but that doesn't mean it will be on a particularity big scale[/QUOTE] Is a galaxy not a big scale to you? The game is basically already set up for them to add new star systems (the hierarchy for SoI was mentioned as containing a "galaxy" that holds all the stars), they're just waiting for us to have a way to get there first.

[QUOTE=JDB;40247121] The main method of movement in KSP is gravity but having the ability to fly straight at mun would be pretty cool.[/QUOTE] That'd be hard because you only see scifi ships flying when they do the cool stuff, and the rest and the physics behind it are left untouched So I doubt it also, if you fly straight to the mun, it won't be there when you approach it's orbit (or it won't if you're flying a ship from eve online) (though I want KSP to have some casual hover and ftl engines) (and a not so laggy physics engine)

If they make it possible to enter a custom seed and create a new game universe once I'm tired of the default one, I will be a happy as can be.

AAARRRRGH the KSP forum is driving me nuts today. It seriously takes 5-10 minutes to load every single page I navigate to. This is shameful, it's like Facepunch's worst days.

[QUOTE=Eltro102;40247235]when they said procedurally generated universe, I thought they meant a bunch of star systems around kerbol, not a galactic scale because that wouldn't add very much to the same[/QUOTE] I don't see why they wouldn't make the scale larger than Kerbol's neighbors. If it's procedurally generated, all they really need to do is make sure the name generator doesn't put anything offensive in. There's really no reason to not make a small galaxy (and it'll be Kerbal-scale, so you won't need to go as far).

Working on an x-20 dyna soar [img]http://dmn.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Air-Force-X-20-Dyna-Soar.jpg[/img] By the way why did aircraft like these use skids instead of wheels, wouldn't they just like create a shower of sparks down the runway

I'd like to see kerbals starve or dehydrate if you don't have supplies on hand.

I have decided to try and actually build things and not use the dev menu to do stuff. i can stream it all but there are a few things: im going to use mechjeb2 i do not have a microphone i can stream music anyone interested watching me fail horribly and helping me out

We've been working really hard on some server issues for the last day or so. The server that hosts both spaceport and the forums is undergoing repair / maintenance. It's going to be slow until things are completely sorted out.

It's perfectly understandable when we actually get an explanation.

I cant get damned robotics to work. I extract the contents of part and other folders to a KSP folder with the same name, but the parts do not appear in game. Halp.

Are you sure you've put everything in the right spot? Also, are you looking in the right category? The DR parts are under Science. As a final question, does your KSP directory have a DamnedRobotics folder?

I made a really tiny space shuttle and managed to get it into orbit. [t]http://i.imgur.com/Iw8Rofy.jpg[/t] It had a ton of fuel left so for shits and giggles I decided to try and get it to orbit the moon, and it actually worked. [t]http://i.imgur.com/XUdoQjW.jpg[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/0tL8Py2.jpg[/t] And after that I decided to try and land with the tiny amount of fuel I have left. [t]http://i.imgur.com/EgXEXFx.jpg[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/oa290jg.jpg[/t] After realizing that I didn't have enough fuel to land safely, I jumped out of the ship right before it exploded and ended up being hurled into suborbit :v:

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;40248917]I kind of don't like this. All I personally wanted was to have the promised colonization stuff in the base game. That's all. Now, by making expansions free to everyone who's already bought the game, not only they will lose a [B][I]lot [/I][/B]of potential money, which leads to less money to spend with developing which might end up hurting the development of future expansions. To be honest, if I'm getting it free I'm not going to pay for the expansions. It was highly likely I'd buy the expansions if they were $15 or less. I feel bad for them. And I feel worse knowing that I helped them make that decision. :([/QUOTE] Maybe they can make an opt-out option

I have been dicking around with alot of mods, But I can't seem to be interested, Someone recommend some mods? No MechJeb or Kethane please. Just something to pass the time til 0.20.

They don't even have the plan for expansions set in stone yet. Plus, depending on the reaction to the new news, they may have attracted more players, including ones that will buy in after the cutoff for free expansions. In any case, just announcing the expansions themselves will attract new people, and anyone buying in when expansions are coming out will be paying a lot more for the full KSP experience.
