@WNP78 can't believe this was 1.5 years ago
@AnotherFireFox there is always a way.
looks so epic :0
@mjdfx150529 what??!? Must be an option to un-nerf it right?
@AnotherFireFox According to Andrew they will be nerfed
So how would you match the difficulty? Real Isp engines would be OP for stock system.
Looks like everyone is hyped!! (I'm also hyped)
@DemonSniper8 i hope. oh it will be cool
to have drone ships and logic
Ok@mjdfx150529
@Pikapilot no one knows
So... not to be that guy, but are the graphics going to get better? I feel like activating the rocket engine on the launch pad looks really fake, even compared to SP
Like Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday
What date?@mjdfx150529
@AstronautPlanes He put /s after his reply, which means it is sarcastic
@bartekkru100 I'm not "Laweacosmica", but that "cheap clone" (that actually costs 39 dollars), is KSP or "Kerbal Space Program", and it's actually not a clone, it's around from 2011.
By the way, that screenshot is obviously from a save with mods, and a lot of them.
EDIT: But, I think that SR2 is more worth it...
i think theres a problem with the website cuz i cant see any images on simple rockets site like this one @AndrewGarrison
@laweacosmica
What is this game, some cheap clone of SR2?
/s
@Mod exactley
Just a heads up, when the site went down for maintenance, it said that 'SimplePlanes' is down for maintenance - on this website.
@mjdfx150529 I know the basics , but I am not really intersted in knowing more than that unless I need to , I just love Astronomy , so that kind of game is just perfect for me ! thanks for the advice tho !
@Dinocraft649 Wikipedia is a good start for learning.
N O I C E . Can't wait to use those things and make it look like I am a rocket scientist when I don't understant anything !
This dev team has moved a long way
(I like my upgrade buttons)
@Gregrox
Hmmm, that's a cool idea. Might happen once we get life support.
Also I had a thought--it would be nice if we could get water as a propellant for NTRs. Results in hydrolox-like thrust and isp, but with a denser propellant!
