I suggest that rocket engines be introduced to the game. Jet engines can get by on most applications but I feel like we need engines that ignite instantly and hard like the missiles we have in the weapons section. I hope my post makes sense because I'm a bit tired to go into detail.
Rocket engines would be really cool! A lot if people are talking about how adding space would not be good, I think what would be cool is to just have the sky darken more as you fly higher. This wouldn't require as much work compared to full on space and also wouldn't change the way people play the game.
Simple rockets and simple planes will hopefully be merged into some sort of pocket kerbol. Dont worry we all want the same thing!
Me-163 Komet FTW!!
@BaconEggs so what it's not a space sim? There are rocketplanes (rocket-propelled aircraft, usually experimental), ballistic missiles (yes, they usually use solid fuel busters (not cruise missiles)), unguided missiles, RATO boosters,...
@OrionAstronaut yeah, we would need space. It's one thing to add a few floating blocks and make boats or to add a car engine to have cars, but brand new physics and a new skybox is a lot of work when they coincidentally already have a rocket game on the market
If we get rocket engines ( which would be awesome), we need space too!
The only problem is that you can only go up vertically so far...
Okay, I kind of agree with this. But not too many rocket engines, just one or two. My argument to the people that disagree is this: tehnX-15 had a rocket engine. :P
this is a great idea!
@SeraphimVault All it most likely would do is be put everywhere on a plane by a blank user.. and be rockets.
@SeraphimVault Yeah, who cares?
@SeraphimVault Because this isn't a space sim.
Then play either SR or KSP
Try this
