[@caliperstorm8343]

5:27 I agree! Simulating joints on crafts always seemed exceedingly pointless to me. It doesn't introduce any real engineering challenge, just an annoyance, source of lag, and impediment to making the designs that you want to. I used Kerbal Joint Reenforcement back in KSP1, and I want something similar here. Perhaps they could add a "structural integrity" system that simulates the stresses on your crafts instead - parts would break if too much force or torque is applied to them, so struts and stable design still matter. Anything is better than the wobble.

[@captainahab5522]

I like your structural integrity system and if you want to have a joint flex before breaking you could make it so that if the stress on a joint exceeds a certain level it will become a simulated flexible joint then being broken when it exceeds a greater value This would improve performance a lot and still keep the joint flex in extreme situations

[@joshuasims5421]

I believe that joint simulation goes back to the original lego-block design system of the original game, which had a much simpler palette of parts. It mostly lends to fun and easy building, not particularly beneficial to simulation or engineering.The parametric approach of Juno or the Procedural Parts mod is probably better for designing rockets, but it does feel less kerbal to me. I would be happy with a system that welds together ship parts that are not attached by decouplers, to improve stability and performance.

[@oasntet]

The lack of joint simulation in Juno feels off to me. I mean, it's a great way to save on CPU so you can ship it on a mobile device, but it makes the scale of rockets feel all wrong and the launches feel unnatural. I maintain that joint simulation is a fundamental part of KSP, and that KSP 2's wobbly rocket problem wasn't about whether or not to it, but a side effect of them not doing the premature optimizations needed for a joint sim that is both more realistic and performant.

[@Octahedran]

I mostly agree. I think a good solution is to not simulate joints on same sized parts but simulate joints between different sized parts

[@hicklenutsdeez2677]

I agree with what @captainahab5522 said. Absolutely no flexing whatsoever, especially in a ksp game just feels wrong to me. Flexing and structural integrity is a real problem that engineers face particularly in aircraft, which flex a lot in real life. You'll even see the wings on fighter jets bend by a couple degrees during high G maneuvers. On the other hand, the noodly craft in ksp2 are at best silly and at worst game breaking. A solution to this would be to have the joints be stronger albeit more brittle so that at a certain point the joints would break instead of having your craft be a noodle. This still doesn't mitigate the performance hit that this would cause, hence the hybrid system.

[@rainbowkrampus]

Money. Remember how this isn't the company that started development on KSP2? There was a whole thing there with Take2 trying to buy out that studio and then scuttling that studio by pulling the license and then spinning up a brand new studio right at the start of the pandemic. They burned a bunch of dev time and experience and money on that and launching an alpha demo for $60 is the way they made up for the shortfall.

[@MrMeow-iq7kq]

EA is just to let you see the direction they are taking the game. Your enjoyment comes second to that, if at all. KSP1 was no where near this games first release state, or the current one. If waiting and releasing in a better state is an option then you should take it. I agree with you on that. But that is also kind of meaningless for a game releasing into EA. A game in development, is in development. Thats not an excuse, its a literal state of the game. Don't buy into something you don't understand.

There's still fuel feed issues, random orbital decay, calculation errors in maneuvers, and fundamental UI features such as ascending/decending nodes and encounter markers missing.

[@aetheriox463]

maybe i just got lucky but ive only encountered 2 bugs after playing for like 20 hours on a science save (im not too good at ksp haha), one being orbital decay once on minmus, and the other being all orbit lines disappearing while driving a rover on duna, so the game is definitely playable as i was able to get a relay satellite around jool on my first try with no issues. the game isnt perfect by any means, orbital decay and orbit lines disappearing should not happen at all, but its a far cry from what you said. id say, if youre playing ksp stock, ksp 2 is good enough to play over ksp 1, but its just preference it could go either way. ksp 1 pulls ahead when you add mods, but thats to be expected. oh, and it shouldnt cost £45 for what we are getting, thats another reason to play ksp 1

Good to see that the game is back on track, but did I see correctly that the oh so beloved grind of KSP1 career mode is gone forever?

KSP1 will definitively keep a place very close to my heart!

[@DerrickBommarito]

For Science restores some hope that the dev team does have the capability but there's still SOOOO much they promised that there's no evidence of existing yet, namely multiplayer. Some of the rocket reporting streamers were tripping over themselves saying "they put multiplayer components from the beginning because they know it's important to start with it!" but 4 launch pad models says nothing about networking... The community was really tripping over itself while being clueless to defend the project. I get it, new KSP is exciting. I still don't see anything that would draw me away from KSP 1 though. When it gets to having some new gameplay capability beyond what's possible with KSP 1, then they'll have my attention. The "fun" criteria doesn't do it for me because... KSP 1 is hella fun.

[@jlust6660]

I always thought that Kerbal's floppy joints were a way of introducing some difficulty. I also doubt the original would have become as popular if it didn't have the floppy rockets, it was part of what made the game funny for people playing it for the first time. The whole thing almost suggested that they tried to make a serious rocket simulation, but messed up one value and ended up with something that was way more entertaining than the intended game could ever have been

[@ReddwarfIV]

That was back when the only possible goal was to reach orbit, which you had to do by knowing the altitude the atmosphere stopped at, and what orbital velocity was, because there was no map view to check your orbit with. It doesn't fit at all in a game where you're flying out to gas giants to land on airless moons the size of your homeworld. I had fun trying to create a rocket large enough to do the job without it flying to pieces or jellyfishing itself beyond SAS control and smashing into the ground... but that wasn't a sustainable fun. It was a meme, and when the meme got stale, I would have moved on. Instead, KSP developed into a proper exploration game.

[@jlust6660]

@@ReddwarfIV I agree to some extent, but I wonder if that's more a staple of the way the game was early on, or the way the game was for new players. Having only gotten into KSP significantly later, I feel like it still gave an extra dimension to my game experience. With what I knew from youtube at the time, getting the early milestones in the game could have been really easy, but I'm glad I still got to experience that difficulty. I still think that the players who keep returning to the game are a sign of what makes KSP great, but I don't think their fun is worth sacrificing some of the difficulty curve of new players

[@ReddwarfIV]

@@jlust6660 Eh. Reaching orbit is hard enough without the rockets themselves behaving badly. Random part failures could certainly create difficulty for players, but if there's no skill involved in whether parts fail or not, then it's just a hassle that forces you to make arocket more redundant than it might otherwise be. These things are fine as an option, but not for the standard experience. In any case, I'm happy to hear you had fun with it. I'm playing a heavily modded KSP1 save right now. Designing an MKS base for Ike.

[@haltux]

Pretty much everyone hates wobbling rockets. 95% of people on the forums and most likely even more of the silent crowd (whose aprt of hardcore gamers is lower). Also the reason for floppy joints is and has always been purely technical. Side effect of historical technical deisgn choices.

[@the18thdoctor3]

The issue with simulating rockets as single rigid bodies is that it’s not how real rockets work. You’re the engineer here Beardy, so correct me if I’m wrong, but afaik the bending forces that cause a KSP rocket to wobble out of control (with the new reduced level of wobbliness) would be enough to snap a real rocket in half. There should be some sort of disincentive to pushing a vehicle through forces it physically should not be able to sustain. Obviously the original level was insane (nobody’s disputing that), but that disincentive is a valid reason for some level of wobbliness to exist.

[@TheBeardyPenguin]

But that's just it, real rockets don't wobble. If they're subject to high enough forces to make them flex they disintegrate. Parts under too much load should just break, with the rocket snapping in half like you say. Joint physics is almost completely unnecessary.

@@IamMortui yup true for a lot of games so yeah for example my watch los of games I want to be good is manor lords, sea power, frostpunk 2 and stalker 2 and all of them have the potential to be great or to be absolute shit my hope is that most of them actually are indidevelopers so yeah

[@Somajsibere]

My only realy question is, did they change the pc requirements, or are those still insane

[@iamrightoutsideyourwindowhello]

Still gonna wait till they add career mode

[@the18thdoctor3]

They did, it’s called Exploration Mode

[@lordderpington8021]

@@the18thdoctor3 Nothing beats the Contract Pack and Kerbal Construction Time mods. They completely changed the way I play the game. Until CKAN or something similar releases for game two I think a fair amount of people will be sticking to game one.

Layoffs… no more development

Great to see the update being so amazing and so many people happy, it really is a lot of fun and I am really looking forward to thr future of this. Imo the best solution to wobble would be to simulate stress between parts and make them shake and brake with too high stress, just like in the first few seconds of the early access cinematic

Im glad i waited till now to get the game i held off getting it on the intial release.

[@shindenfighter3303]

I still think that it needs a career mode(thats tbh the only mode I was/am really invested in the ksp1) and also the progression tree loks really weird? I know mods will probably v easily change the latter(hopefully the devs will add career tho) im just baffled why would you need orbital rocketry to unlock better airplane parts?
