Ded as fuck and 1.1 yesterday edition
>Can the game be considered a full release?
No, for all intents and purposes, KSP should be considered still in early access state. The game is nowhere near being able to stand on its own legs both from a gameplay perspective (career mode is definitely not ready and balanced) and a stability perspective. There are still major bugs and memory leaks that shouldn't exist on a finished game.
>Are there big issues with the game?
Bugs and instability are still real and frequent problems, as with every product still in beta. Ask in thread for details.
>What are the devs doing?
Modified versions of popular mods are being included in the stock game while the game engine is being upgraded to its latest version. The next major update (1.1) is supposedly going to bring a complete overhaul of the GUI, be 64bit friendly, have a refined physics/heating/aero model and generally perform better. An external team with heavily questionable experience (Flying Tiger Entertainment) is being tasked with porting the game to PS4, XboxOne and Wii U. They seem to be rushing for an imminent deadline and they are also working on a version of the game that will be obsolete in a few weeks/months.
>Should I buy the game?
KSP is very enjoyable at first, then it usually needs to be modded to retain some sort of longevity, but doing so may dramatically decrease the stability of the game. You will be very familiar with the word "Oops!". The Developers, Squad, have shown many times that they can't handle the project and are trying to squeeze all the money they can with the least amount of effort and with controversial PR tactics. The general consensus at /kspg/ is that you should torrent the game, not because the game itself is unplayable, but because most of us agree that Squad does not deserve your money

1.1, while utilizing new development tactics, demonstrates Squad's total incompetence and is symbolic of their lack of desire to finish the game. And it took a year, to add nothing. An external team with heavily questionable experience (Flying Tiger Entertainment) is being tasked with porting the game to PS4, XboxOne and Wii U. They seem to be rushing for an imminent deadline and they are also working on a version of the game that will be obsolete in a few weeks/months.
But frankly we should also address the fact that squad lied about the consoles not taking up any devtime and we should discuss the fact that KSP is having an existential crisis and it's .1's the way down from here until they close up shop in November 2016

>>140480867
I'm early on in my career mode, so they're mostly there for redundancy's sake, and so that future probes can link up with them. I also wanted antennas dedicated to linkage with the ComSat trio, with one being the receiver, the other being the sender, one for Mission Control, another for a now-redundant probe, and lastly the big antenna for all active parts. This pretty much ensures that anything close to Kerbin will surely have the signal to capcom, provided there's line of sight.

And here we see our permanently butthurt "anon", who is so butthurt by everyone ignoring his whining that he started inventing all kinds of conspiracy theories to hide his deep, powerful anger.
Notice how he is also the only one being butthurt about including MAN in the unwelcome section of the OP and claiming to know MAN's posting schedule, coincidence? You decide.
We now silently watch as his autism and several personalitiy disorders unfold in a string of top quality whining, ad personam accusations, claims without a single shadow of evidence to back them and, most of all, the most creative and complex conspiracy theories you can even imagine.
Enjoy
>>140481372
I don't know but it's really fucking annoying having this shill spam our general with useless screenshots from a 2011 scam and constantly adding rants about this "MAN" into the OP that no one approved and also rolling back the OP to previous versions with no one's permission.

>>140481407
>MAN theories
if he exists, he's been here longer than you. Why do you try so hard to regulate our culture? We never asked for your KSP spam or your moralistic judgements of people who AREN'T EVEN HERE
fuckoff angry anon, no one wants your shit.
I don't really want to argue but I've been following this for awhile and this man fellow really didn't do anything wrong.
The people who hate him, on the other hand, seem willing to make this general man-hating central 24/7, and constantly complain about this person as if he had personally killed their children.
Seriously the out-of-the-ordinary thing here is the legendary butthurt of the manhaters, they are the cancer killing /kspg/.
>>140481115
But how will you do when you build mun and minmus commsats? How will you connect those to the KSC?
are you simply planning on replacing the whole Kerbin network as new tech allows you to make better Sats?
I usually build my Kerbin Sats to be kinda future proof so I cram 8 antennas in there and never have to think about upgrading them again.
6 of the small ones you have in your Sats (1 aimed at Kerbin, 2 aimed at the other two Sats, 1 set for active vessel and 2 for 2 future mun Sats) and 2 of the dishes you also have in there (each for 2 future minmus Sats), which pretty much covers everything I might be building and sending all around the Kerbin system.
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

I am very happy with the state of Kerbal Space Program. The devs are hardworking and dedicated people who are working to make a terrific game.
I am glad I purchased this game while it was in early access and my money was well spent because I have gotten over 2000 hours of entertainment for a fairly low price.
I look forward to seeing the further development of this extremely fun game.
Space is Fun.
Kerbal is Fun
Squad is Fun.
Let's review why the consoles are the lynchpin in the scam theory:
>collect $100 million to create PC game
>fumble PC development, begin declaring sections of the game "scope complete" for the sake of press releases
>throw roadmap out, rush a shitty career mode with a backwards difficulty curve
>secret feature is a "exploding buildings"
>in 2014
>paving the way for upgradeable buildings
>which were there to turn our space simulator into Maxmaps' personal business simulator and runway takeoff and aerodynamic liftoff sim with some persistence.
>Console companies demand "1.0" label
>Spend the rest of 2014 working on your "beta"
>That is not actually a "Beta" in any way shape or form except the title is "beta than ever"
>The tail is now furiously wagging the dog
>Another 6 months, 1.0 adds nothing, hotfixes take four months.
>Silence for a year
>1.1 comes out
>Suddenly console builds and PC builds are identical
>We are playing console builds
>We are playing a game that was designed for consoles
Yet we paid Squad to create a PC game.
So they took the PC game money and used it to create something set up for a second payday on an entirely different platform.
We never received our final product, and consoles will receive a broken piece-of-shit useless alpha blahblahlbah
This, my friends, is fraudulent activity, a scam, perpetrated by the use of Tax havens, embezzled funds, and enough Treason for the young mexican children around Squad HQ who are dying and sick to not receive the help they need, due to Squad's avoidance of $30 million USD in Mexican taxes.
All this from an "indie mexican dev" which is actually a dutch marketing company.
Now let's talk about Parallel Dynamics, Deported bv, Electro Chango SA de CV and Monkey Squad SA de cv, a few of Squad's holding companies they used to launder the early access funding and avoid the very nature of Early Access, which is openness and transparency in game development.
We're coming for you, Max. The rope waits.
>>140481737
I'm currently playing on career mode, so I only have the really early antennas unlocked. Therefore, there's no real way or reason for me to fit as many antennas as I possibly can to the satellites, as their usefulness would be limited to the range of the main dish.
To answer your questions, probes sent to either Mimus or the Mun will be fitted with the only high-gain antenna available, which ensures that it will remain in constant communication with at least one of the three keosynchronous satellites, provided it's in front of the moon. Soon enough, I'll provide the moon with 100 percent coverage with another trio of ComSats, which will link up to Kerbin's trio via whatever antenna becomes redundant at the time (I definitely don't need all three pointed at capcom).
If I do run into any problems with my current configuration -and I have no doubt that I will- I'll deploy some more satellites to reinforce coverage.
Thanks a lot for your input; it's always nice to talk to a friendly KSP player.

>>140482216
I once read a very good tutorial for an efficient Kerbin-system commsat network, I don't have the link right now, but it allows to make Sats with zero redundancy and overall cheaper cost.
It's what I always use because it's so good.
The first ring of Kerbin Sats are as described, then you place two Sats orbiting Kerbin at the same distance as the mun does, placed right outside the mun's sphere of influence, one in ahead and one behind the mun.
They have one antenna for each of the Kerbin ring (which doesn't even need to be in synchronous orbit) Sats, one aimed at the mun, one for active vessel (because the active vessel one in the Kerbin ring doesn't have good range for anything past the mun) and two for the minmus Sats.
The minmus Sats are placed exactly as the mun Sats and built the same.
One antenna for active vessel, one for minmus, three for each Kerbin Sat and two for interplanetary Sats placed outside Kerbin's sphere of influence with the same logic of the other Sats.
This way, except when strange eclypses happen, there are always at least two paths back to Kerbin, you use one less Sat for each moon and the only drawback is a little slice of surface on the opposite side of each moon from Kerbin with no coverage, which is not really a problem as the moon rotates and you just have to worry about not wanting to actively fly or land in there.
The Sats are more complex because they have more antennas than usual, but you use less of them, which means less launches and less money spent in the long run, it's also completely future proof so there are no antennas suddenyl becoming redundant or useless.
I just wanted to share my logic since I don't like replacing Sats a million times or having waste antennas floating around, a problem that you might be facing sometimes in your future with those Sats.

I usually put 3 comsats at around 800km range with a com-16 and 3 dts-m1's that handle everything until I'm near done with mun and minmus. By then I have enough tech for the big dishes and build 2 satellites with late game remotetech at geosync 60 degrees from either side of KSC.
>>140483131
Joking aside, it really feels like the forum defense arrived.
>>140483616
I'm glad it's finally reached a threshold where you feel that way, but keep in mind that this OP was created by the same guy constantly replacing OPs for years (changing torrent to purchase just to trigger the spergs, etc)
And also keep in mind the defense force had to be organized enough to let the other thread die just before we hit wakeup time in America, so this isn't a new trend.
He/they have been here for years. It could very well be Max, hoping to vanquish /kspg/ so he can return to gainful employment. It could be a forum mod, it could be a forum or subreddit poster who thinks they are helping KSP
What they do not understand is that we care more deeply about KSP than any hugbox, and we want to see it thrive in its purest form -- as open source -- or with the accountability we expected when we purchased the early access idea created by a brazillian and developed by whites.
Shortly after the millions started flowing in, they fired the whites, hired Mexicans, and the quality of the game's development took a nosedive, which is when /kspg/ began to rebel against Squad.
We believe in a better KSP. We will do what it takes to bring it there. All pollution and spam here serve no purpose in terms of the good of KSP -- in fact they hurt it.
But more importantly, the people perpetuating this sad, sad charade have goals other than the best for KSP in their minds. They just seem to want to watch the world burn. That's the type of sociopathic emotion I only associate with one person.

How many sunrises and sunsets have you seen?

Sunset occurs because of perspective.
>>140513013
how does perspective bring an object above a plane below its horizon?
>>140513610
The sun goes far away enough that it becomes invisible to the human eye.
>>140514094
how does it become invisible if there's nothing to block its rays of light?

If you stand on the US east coast and look over the ocean with a telescope. Why can't you see Europe?

How about when a ship is heading towards you. You can start to see the top of the ship before the rest of it.

>>140514417
Then you should be able to see the top of South America, but all that is visible is ocean.

i'm not going to argue a retard spouting wives' tales
>>140514214
>>140514218
For the same reason, the atmosphere blocks out things that are far enough away.
>>140515284
>Literally no proof of the sun visually becoming smaller and smaller to the point it is no longer visible.
>>140515783
If you look at something fly away you can obviously see it become more blue until its gone.
>>140516286
No proof of the sun actually doing that.
kys for believing stupid shit.
>>140516286
But you also see its apparent size shrinking, which doesn't happen to the sun
And it would have to travel a fucking lot to become invisible, meaning it would shrink a fucking lot, which again does not happen at any point during the daily cycle
>>140516648
The sun obviously isn't as big as "scientists" want you to think.
>>140516771
You are still not explaining why it doesn't shrink while flying away to the point of becoming invisible
>>140516771
Fuck off, B.o.B.
>>140516915
It is just an optical illusion. The moon looks bigger when it is "low" in the sky because our brains make it seem that way.
![earths-shadow[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/uW2amaK.jpg "earths-shadow[1].jpg")
>>140516286
assuming the distance is great enough for the suns direct rays to be completely absorbed that would still leave a lot of atmospheric scattering even at the greatest distance. the night is dark because of the earths shadow, which you can clearly see in the sky at twilight
>>140517758
Not if the sun acts like a splotlight

then it would appear to dim into nothingness as the angle increases, rather than go below the horizon
>>140518657
Not if it follows the right path. Remember that things are hotter at the equator because the sun dips down in its path.

Ok enough of this flat earth bullshit, Im gonna play rocket league
>>140519926Post videos
>>140519386
then the sun would appear to rise as seen from the equator, rather than set. in reality the sun sets faster at the equator than anywhere else due to the higher rotation speed there

probably le hands rubbing kike, or a reactionary-era pepe
Question for any game devs out there. How does KSP render such large planets and a solar system? I know that they subdivide the planets so they don't have millions of verts slowing everything down, but what I mean is, how can the scale be so huge?
As far as I know, Unity only supports maps of a certain size and going any larger fucks the whole thing up. But, in KSP you can fly millions of km to another planet. How do they accomplish this? All I can think of is that they use a 3d skybox somehow. Can anyone help?
>>140539698
>le hands rubbing kikeThat was one of them actuallyNice guess
>>140539786
The game only renders stuff within a few km

>when you stand up and can literally feel all of your blood rushing downwards and draining out of your head
>>140541017
there's two scenes active at a time, one is a small scale system where the orbits are calculated and distant bodies are rendered, scaled so that all of kerbol fits in the unity limitations
the second is the close range scene at full scale, rendered on top of the small scale one, and where all the physics and such runs
they also re-center everything around the active vessel now and then to keep float precision good and avoid krakens

>>140543453

>>140543279
Ok, thanks. How do they merge the two scenes into each other? I assume that the geometry surrounding the ship on the launch pad, such as the nearby terrain, sky and the launch pad itself are part of the "close range scene" while Kerbin, when viewed at a high altitude, is part of the "small scale system"? Do you know exactly how and when the two fade into each other? Any information or links you can provide would really help.

>>140544851
Have you ever been approaching a larger space station, the game running smoothly, then when you reach about 5km or so from the craft the game will hang for a moment, then keep going with increased lag? That's the moment when the game switches the craft from on-rails, the outside scene, to the near one, where physics kick in and the engine fully renders the craft.
>>140545657
god probably hates us tbqh
>>140545690
they must disclose how much they made and how much they're keeping.
from that point we can shame them into spending another 60-70 mil on a whole new dev team, build out a self-sustaining, transparent business model, and help the Mexican tax authority have maxmaps charged with treason and summarily hanged
>>140546273
I can only imagine how terrifying the inside of your head is for that poor hamster that runs it.
>>140546273
But they won't, because they can and Mexican authorities don't care.

Yeah, I knew that. I was talking more about the planets and the space between them, not the ships.

I just had a strange experience. A busker who was talking to a girl I met while picking up acid in bushwick last weekend was having a mental breakdown on the L train today and I tried to comfort him. He ended up storming off angrily and I guess I looked sad as I walked out of the train because a large black guy walking past me shoved a silver metal thing into my chestwhile saying "here's a bud light"
