I like the new engines, particularly the small one. Your silly little planes don't have to be rocket powered anymore, and can fly a lot longer as a result.

Edit: then I realize they nerfed crap, and now all my prior designs don't work anymore, and I have to make them all over, and I don't really want to bother, so I don't want to play anymore. I'd just gotten beyond that stage in 1.0, too...

The new plane parts are indeed awesome, I think the only thing I really did post-patch was sit around making various first generation jets...

Spoiler: Said E.381, its more of a somewhat guided missile, than parasite aircraft (click to show/hide)

They also added a ton of stock aircraft, including two satellite launching ones.

so with the new antenna range stuff (and planetoids blocking LOS?) how much of remotetech is obsolete?  are there any RT players here that can offer a comparison with the new stock?

It sounds like  a new update for RT should be dropping today... so maybe I should be waiting a bit to ask this...

I'm pretty sure that the antenna range stuff is for 1.1.

I'm guessing it'll mostly be like RT lite. Didn't it already have something of a sphere of influence, so you had to take the big dish for Eeloo?

Should I be questioning why the Space Program isn't very Spacey now?

design by commitee ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

departure of NovaSilisko dealt a huge blow to the 'program' part of kerbal space.

[Dorsidwarf]

I made my most successful aircraft design ever today, which is odd seeing as it's wings are insane and partly on back to front.

Nice and stable to fly with a little SAS help, lands at like 120m/s easily, and takes off quite fast.

What's become less spacey in your opinion?

You did get a new rocket engine, that's something.  Should make shuttle design easier.

I also heard the aerospike engine is different somehow?

Edit: there's also a smaller drill to use

I think he means that the additions are more terrestrial/aquatic in nature rather than spaceflight.

[Aseaheru]

 Those changes also apply to places like Eve and Laythe, so you can build that underwater laythian mining base.

[miauw62]

to be honest, water changes were needed because they were literally unmoddable up to now. this is pretty hype tbh

[puke]

I like the idea of space-x style recovery barges, even though there is currently no penalty for just landing in water.

I do wish there was more 'program' though.  The 'firsts' contract series is progress in that regard, but I'm sad they seemed to have dropped the idea of discovering planets through the tracking station.

And I widh the contracts were less random, and built more on existing stations with missions like resupply, ferry civilian scientist, rotate crew, install science module, increase power storage, etc.
