    Neat thing about the U-2 is that the "fuel pods" on the wings are actually for sensors! Another cool thing is that the U-2 cockpit is the same as the F-104 Starfighter's!

      @@neonblack211 I don't think adding as many features as KSP1 has is doable without making it early acces tbh, KSP1 was developed for more than a decade after the early acces and it was really bare bones aswell. I just don't think any engineering game ever will be any close to completed in the early acces stage, it's just not possible.
      This game will probably be a black sheep for a very long while until they catch up to the first game.

    here is some useful tips!
    - the fuel tanks that you are using to offset the weight of the U2, are not connected to the main fuel might help to get a bit more out of that last stage
    - i think you should be able to goto the tracking station and select the u2 from there(you can also do this whilst flying)

    KSP2 is terrible. They put lipstick on a pig and called it a beauty queen.
    All we really wanted was KSP1 better optimized with better resource utilization. In its current form, it is nearly unplayable. "Early access" is no excuse. I played KSP1 since 2011, and it was never this buggy, nor this resource hungry. I'd trade clouds, paint schemes, trees, and sound generation for a smooth running KSP1 in a heart beat.
    God forbid you do fuel xfeed or add any struts.
    Running on an engineering desktop that handles *everything* else I throw at it.
    I supported with my $50, as a wishful investment. At this point I have low expectstions. Seems like many of the design never even spent time playing KSP1 judging by the complete lack of, or bugginess of some of the most crucial features for any longterm KSP player. You can tell their focus was the *new* player, by dumbing things down such as calling a 1.25m rocket a "small" as if differentiating 1.25m from 2.5m was hard to begin with.... All while completely missing the importance of things like struts and fuel xfeed. Give Squad the same funding these devs got and we'd have a usable product.

      Early KSP 1 was, well, maybe not _quite_ as buggy, but almost unplayable if you wanted to do anything with more than like 5 parts because the joints were held together with small rubber bands instead of bolts. Even now, it’s hard to make a swing-wing plane whose wings won’t just fold when you pull up.
