    In 2015 I fried the gpu of my macbook pro staying up way too late building SSTOs. Many were in the hundreds part count. That was around when 1.0 finally came out. Lol good times 😂 never did bring myself to part clip like that though!

      I'd hate to know how many hours I've spent messing about with SSTOs, Luckily haven't fried a PC yet though! (RIP your macbook)
      Not my proudest use of part clipping lol, my thought process was that I just ended up with the same density as LF with Nervs in the original game, gone are the days of shared LF between the nervs and the atmospheric stage, sadly.

      I use auto-subtitles to take some of the work out of doing them manually, then go through and fix all of the mistakes it makes (which are many). Somehow the auto subtitle thing ALWAYS, and I mean always, writes KFC for the KSC.
      Moral of the story is AI really likes fried chicken! LOL

      @@smooneychad Unfortunately Nate Simpson has all but explicitly said that robotics aren't coming (I don't remember who it was that asked or when, though). He's said they haven't ruled the possibility of adding something like that long-term, but I got the impression that was along the lines of a "never say never" kind of thing, and it's definitely not in the plans/timeline.
      That said, I'm pretty confident someone will make a mod for it at some point, as long as the game keeps improving and starts winning over more of the community

    • @smooneychad
      @smooneychad  6 місяців тому

      Could be a lot of things going on, if the engines are mounted on the top or bottom of the aircraft, they may not be lined up with the center of mass, causing it to torque (similar to the way gimballing works). In which case rotating them slightly up or down pointing toward the CoM would help.
      Could also be a bunch of other things like fuel burning and slowly shifting the CoM behind the center of lift, the atmosphere getting thinner leading to loss of control, or simply that the engines are mistakenly slightly tilted or something like that. Lmk if any of that helps! :D

      @@guesswho2778 agreed with the other reply, the game's gotten a lot better performance-wise, especially with the Science update. I'm on a 4070 Ti and a 13700K, a fairly higher-end PC, and for the first couple of missions on a new Science save I'm up around 80-100fps. But it starts deteriorating pretty quickly both as you have more ships in your save file and with ship size/complexity. On later missions with 100ish-part ships I'm usually down to 30ish fps (this is on 1440p with all settings maxed and ~10 mods installed)
