Internally he really opposes the current devs and how badly they have treated the franchise. Pro tip to all, you cannot replace passion and competence with what ever alternative selection/hiring practices led to the ksp2 team

[@Megames2012]

Generally wings that are swept back are used for faster planes, typically jet aircraft. If you follow the P51D Mustang shape, you could get a pretty decent prop plane; swept back leading edge, swept forward trailing edge resultings in a root that is wider than the tip of the wing. Add tail wings that are slightly higher than the main wing, and make it essentially a 1/4 scale of the main wing.

[@Rakkeyal]

This is the coolest model creator I've seen. The perfect mix of "complex" and "casual".

[@mephisto8101]

It is really nice to hear about the origins of the Kerbals and Harvester's journey. The thing I wished for in KSP 2 was a massive improvement in actually playable part counts. I felt that this was a major limit to the complexity of the crafts I could built. Seeing the current performance of KSP2, despite its recent improvements, feels like the ceiling is similarly low as in KSP1. The thing about modelling internal physics only for your crafts and letting the other computer handle theirs sounds like a good approach to KSP multiplayer or colonies. THe developers of KSP2 need to find a new way of thinking about physics in KSP2 in my opinion. Just replicating a similar system will lead to similar bottlenecks.

Man I wish he was in control of KSP 2. He and his team clearly understand the part-based physics much better than the new devs, since, you know, they got them to work and iterated them into this new version that looks so much better.

[@oasntet]

Having the vehicle building take place within the real-world map is no small achievement. A bit like getting rid of the VAB and only doing rocket assembly via engineer kerbals (except with better tools).

[@richardbloemenkamp8532]

I had totally forgotten how we used to make paper planes and compete on distance as kids. Maybe you can put kites in it too or think about a game with kites. With kites you can do quite a few cool challenges and battles too, such as height/distance records, crashing into targets/enemies, use kites for launching stuff of kerbals to great heights, kite based satellites, kites for energy harvesting, kite missions for advertisement, kite automation, armed kites, kites to create a wire link across a river/channel, weather effects and with the kite wires the physics is a bit different than with planes and rockets.

[@TotoDG]

The name for Wirraway Island most likely comes from the CAC Wirraway, which was one of the first planes to be mass-produced for military purposes in Australia. Not entirely sure why they chose an Australian name for their in-game world, but I'm certainly not gonna complain. Having said that, it's pretty cool that my home state of South Australia was represented within this video, even if only for a couple of seconds.

[@randomaccount6146]

This game is incredibly cool and I have wishlisted it about a month ago. The only two negative things I could currently think of by this gameplay are maybe the aiming of the guns and the damage system. For the guns it would be cool it there were some servo motors and you could control them with the mouse so you can aim with your guns. And as for the damage system I think the vehicles feel a little too fragile. Whenever they bump into each other not that strong they get shredded. Maybe this should be slightly lowered and also the armor plates should be more effective against bullets or collisions. But other than that the game looks perfect to me and I cant wait for the release.

I'm glad to see the company upheld their promise of those people like myself, got given all the DLC for free as promised. However, I have my doubts on KSP2. Honestly, I hope they have a built-in MecJeb that can auto fly to planets once in orbit. KitBash looks super fun, too. Would love to buy it

[@eypandabear7483]

This looks like it could scratch the same itch as Stormworks Build and Rescue, but with a more whimsical twist.

[@Suzuki_Hiakura]

I wonder if they plan on adding RC tanks... like for RC tank battles. Apparently some actually use metal plates and anywhere from .22 to 9mm bullets, and even heard of one that shot 12 gauge shotgun shells... still wasnt aware of tank battles at that time, so I only know it was over 150 dollars for the kit at the time which was quite expensive for an electric rc tank at the time...

[@jak3solo]

Awesome! He seems like a really cool guy.

[@captainjonna1034]

you've switched from single point to point joint systems to geodesic structure simulation...aka the chain link fence, spreading the pressure across the fence and the whole surface can flex and by much more rigid that KSP 1...dam you guys should of kept Hold of KSP and made it with this engine but hey i totally get that people will want to work on other projects and maybe in the future you'll make a rocket / physics building game again in the future of your own using this system it sounds like it would have better hope for getting them frames per second with larger part counts.

[@JohnK68]

LOOOOL The KSP1 developer finally has physics working like how it should work in KSP in the first place. But to be dead serious. He can be very proud, he outclassed the current KSP2 developer team on his own. By the way, cars and model planes are nice, but my dear Felipe Falanghe are you aware there are also model rockets???
