– The KSC Facilities have all been revised, and feature new ground meshes and many other graphical improvements.

– Subassemblies are subsets of spacecraft, which can later be attached to other designs and re-used. – Added a system to allow saving and loading of Sub-Assemblies. – Overhauled the landing legs and gears, they now have proper shock-absorbing suspensions. – Revised a lot of part values and descriptions, in preparation for them actually meaning something in the near future. – Nose Cones now actually help with improving stability during atmospheric flight. The new mesh uses the same placement rules so it won’t break ships that have it. – Completely remodelled the Communotron 88-88 Comms Dish. – Added a new deployable antenna, which is an intermediate model compared to the two original ones. – Antennas consume massive amounts of power when transmitting. – The antennas are now functional, and can be used to transmit science data back to Kerbin, if recovering the physical experiments is not an option. They all have their own experiments which enable them to log scientific data. – The old science sensors now have a purpose. Also added experiments to many existing parts. – Added new scientific parts, like the Materials Bay and the Mystery Goo™ Canister. – Added a new dialog to show a breakdown of all scientific progress made after recovering a mission. – Added a new dialog to show the results of experiments when reviewing the collected data. – Experiments can (as all proper experiments must) be repeated over many different situations across the whole Solar System. – Science experiments return results, which are different for each situation in which the experiment is performed. – You can now collect surface samples while on EVA, and process them to do Science. – Researching requires Science, which must be earned by performing experiments during your missions. – R&D allows players to unlock parts (and later other stuff) by researching nodes on the Tech Tree (In Career Mode). – Added the Research & Development Facility to the Space Center. – Sandbox mode, of course, is also available from the start.

– Career Mode is now open! Although still very much under development, you can now start new Career saves. Too much freedom can be overwhelming, especially in a game about launching spacecraft.Īs ever, this is a work-in-progress, but the end goal is to have players: “Hiring their own astronauts, doing Research and Development, building ships under a budget and taking on contracts to earn money and build their agency’s reputation.”
#Kerbal space program xbox one how to launch from launcher update#
A substantial update has come out for Kerbal Space Programthis week, adding Career Mode for those of us wanting more structure to go with the existing sandbox option.
