KSP 2: Visiting the DRES CANYONS!

  • In today's Kerbal Space Program 2 video, I decided to visit one of my favourite destinations from KSP 1 - the Dres Canyon! It turns out Dres now has THREE canyons, and they look pretty impressive. Unfortunately, many kraken attacks and bugs happened throughout our journey, but we struggled through regardless!

    Please note that this video was recorded BEFORE the latest KSP 2 patch, so there may be bugs shown that are no longer present in the current version of the game. I haven't had a chance to play the new patched version yet but I am told the manoeuvre planner tool is a lot better now, and that we can now see our trajectory past planets and moons!

    There was a wormhole orbiting the North pole of Dres. While attempting to calculate a maneuver to return to kerbin, the ship passed through the wormhole, which sent them back in time to the KSP 1 universe. They made it safely to kerbin and later climbed into the CERN particle accelerator to return to their own time.

    You know at this point they should keep track of all the bugs and glitches and compile a list and once they fully release the game they can add a game mode where these glitches are intended features. Like when your orbiting your orbit can just instantly drop to 0 like at 11:00 and you'd have to adjust for that. Or one of your solar panels or landing legs could just disconnect like the glue they used to keep the craft together was covered in crumbs (presumably snack crumbs), could be a really fun/infuriating challenge.

    Switching to KSP1 at the end reminds me of the plot to Planet of the Apes, but in reverse. They went out to space, and experienced time dilation such that the apes had enough time on Earth to take over. You went out to space, and experienced so many bugs that you had to return to Kerbin in the original game (backwards in time).

    As someone who worked close to a graphic designer for a while, I can assure you that the sketch you sent the designers for the Kraken Slayer merch is probably the briefing they think up in their wet dreams. The one I worked with usually got a one to two sentence "description" of what the person wanted and the rest was guesswork.
    Maybe it's not like that in textiles, but with online banners that used to be what the designers had to work with ;)

    So, I'm new to KSP, enjoying the early access, and find videos like yours extremely helpful, not only for the tips and examples you're sharing, but also for the basics that you may not be aware, but you're sharing nonetheless. When you make a comment like "if you need tutorials, you should just not play, wait till they fix all the bugs", it's a complete buzzkill. We've got a few weeks of gameplay under our belts, I think anyone who would be turned off by bugs would have probably given up by now. If we're still playing at this point, we can tolerate the taste of insects. You know what's worse than the bugs in the game? not knowing if your rockets are failing because of the kracken, or if they're failing because you're a noob who didn't strut everything, or some other rookie mistake. Tutorials and guides would really help a lot. But whether you offer such advice or not, I'm going to keep playing, learning, and having fun regardless.

    8:30 - That encounter was probably so bad because if you have the rings showing the entry and exit points of SOI directly on the opposite sides, it means that the central body doesnt change your path much, which means that your periapsis isn't close enough for the gravity to affect you much. Maybe somewhat counterintuitively, you want those circles to be almost as close to each other as possible without crashing into the planet (or moon), that way you know your trajectory is passing very close to the surface.
    Although now that *that* bug seems to be fixed in KSP2, this might be a moot point...

    I ran into the missing orbital trajectory on my first trip to the Mun in KSP2. As at least a partial result of this, Bob got stuck in orbit around the Mun. I sent a recovery ship to save him, but his vessel obviously still did not have a trajectory shown. After a lot of time and tears, I successfully rendezvoused and saved Bob. It was probably the hardest and also probably one of the most rewarding things I've done in KSP.
    Wish I had known about the JSON edit tho.

    Hey Matt, I had a build idea for you.
    I thought about a wild idea where a 300t or so gyroscope were placed outside the gravitational influence of earth/kerbin. This gyroscopic giant would spin at 5000rpm give or take, creating a sizable gravitational field.
    The theory is that you can use the gravitational field to add a huge amount of boost to a smaller vehicle with a perfectly done slingshot maneuver around it.
    Thank you in advance, and have a wonderful day.

    I had the same issue with the clamp-o-tron. I ended up just using a separator coupling like you did in between stages for separation which worked well. I also ran into the issue of when Jeb would exit the landing craft to get back the the main craft then Jeb and the landing craft would suddenly start dropping while the main craft would fly away (in orbit). Debug was a useful feature. I did use a two stage lander which ended up having a large gap in between the lower and upper stage, and somehow it still worked. I did end up successfully visiting the larger canyon and it was worth the struggle.

    I hope the patch really did solve a lot of these problems, and making content becomes much easier and more enjoyable for you. People seem to be pretty happy with it.

    For Matt’s sake, I hope some of these bugs are fixed in the first patch! What a struggle!

    I think you need to rename the video to "KSP1.5: Visiting the DRES CANYONS!" Good content :) Thx for taking the labor pains so that we can see the game!

    I do watch you play ksp2 because I couldn't play it myself, so good guess on that.

    Great vid! Love your stuff. Have a question about farings in general. Is delta v saved from reduced drag with a faring more than delta v saved from reduced weight without a faring? Basically are they really worth the bother?
