KSP2: Stunning high performance SSTO

Рет қаралды 17,035

Күн бұрын

Hopefully, a future update allows us to cover up the hydrogen tanks with out dumpster our craft's drag, but for now, this is the best solution. Even tho something like Minmus or even Duna would have been easyer to pull off, i figured Laythe would be the perfect destination to showcase that you can build an SSTO for looks, yet still retain relatively high performance.

Nice mission! Working around the landing gear bugs only added to the video. I can't wait until KSP2 gets into a more stable state. Then I might actually consider purchasing.

SSTO's in Ksp 2 are so amazing!!! great video!! I just built a monster hydrogen SSTO with a drop tank and did a round trip. Tylo was mandatory for assist. Mine had two hydrogen engines and 12 whips. I like your builds! You'll prolly think my ssto looks rediculous cuz it kinda is...

Jool is such a perfect planetary system to practice everything in the rest of the game on a smaller scale. It’s kind of broken how many options you have just to capture in the system - you can aerocapture on jool itself or on laythe, or you can use gravity assists between different moons in the system to save hundreds or even thousands of m/s of delta-v, or you can opt to brute force a capture by burning fuel. It is the perfect system to practice gravity assists, you can treat it like a miniature solar system with jool as the star. The moons have good variety in appearance and physical characteristics from tiny rocky micromoons that are challenging to but easy to land on, to Laythe being basically a slightly scaled-back Kerbin. If you want to practice ANYTHING in KSP, the Jool system is easy to get to and is a great place to learn.

@@Kerman_von_Braun As a KSP 1 veteran (over 2k hours) I reall do hope so. But the game director worries me the most he just said that they are going to focusing on new features rather than fixing major bugs. I know another game which does that and that is called Star Citizen. New content coming out constantly while 1-2-3 year old bugs still persists.

@Kerman_von_Braun Жыл бұрын

@@BugraBasgan well, bugs and new content are being handled by separate teams. From what i understand, game development is a bit different to most other projects, where you will have multiple teams working side by side on different aspects of the game at the same time. So they can have both bug fixes and new content come in at roughly the same time. So far, we only got bug fixes, so id say the team at intercept is prioritising things correctly

Major props. That's a great looking design. Curious if you could design a large payload SSTO that is effective and not a million part super computer killer. I have struggled a lot with this. Most builds end up getting three frames per second.

@Kerman_von_Braun Жыл бұрын

Yes and no. In theory, you should be able to do a ~100-200t LKO lift SSTO with out to many issues well keeping the engine count down to a reasonable lvl. How ever, due to the cargobay bug, cargo SSTO's and space planes in general are just not worth doing at the moment. Im waiting for said bug to be fixed to finally start doing cargo ssto's. I do have 1 cargo ssto design up in ksp builds called ''draken minotaur''. its a 35t lko lift ssto, tho due to the cargo bug, its not very functional.

How are you getting AeroGUI to work? Ever since the last patch (or maybe the previous?) mine no longer comes up, due to the F12 key issue, or whatever. Did they change the binding?

@Kerman_von_Braun Жыл бұрын

Intercept decided to disable aeroGUI because ''f12 is needed for screenshots''. Its extremely dented, but thankfully, Shadowdev fixed the issue. Simply install his ''cheat menu'' mod and f12 will once again bring up the aero gui. That specific mod also includes other useful fixes, like the failed mission report if you lose a single piece of your craft.

7000 m/s reentry speed oO' Will there be a chance to survive that kind of speed when the reentry heating will be implemented?

@Kerman_von_Braun Жыл бұрын

that depends largely on the craft. This specific one would of likely burned up, tho its hard to say, since we dont know how resistant certain parts will be to atmospheric heating. A much safer option is to capture using tylo's gravity and then perform a very small burn to get a Laythe encounter. Tho a craft that is light enough and can generate sufficient drag in the upper Laythe atmosphere can do a direct aero capture.

@@TheGuyWhoComments Realistically, 95% of the work is in game. Setting up the shoots can take a pretty insane amount of time, and there is only so much you can do in post. For example, in my last Duna colony vid, some shoots unironically took me more then 10h to execute in game (generally transition shoots). Tho there are some minor things i do in post that complete the general vibe, like non linear speed ramping or sound effects (99% of footage in my vids doesnt have the original in game audio since its usually speed up massively. I instead use in game sound bites or external effects)
