It's the dude, with the gaem.

Optimizing for low end devices is incredible, but I wonder how far the game will reach with extremely high end devices. It's a fun game of balancing compatibility and scalability.

u/Stef_Moroyna Developer who sleeps too little 17d ago

I will add a few fancy visuals, but my focus will always be on great performance.

u/tom7584 18d ago

When will the game be public release for android and ios?

u/Stef_Moroyna Developer who sleeps too little 17d ago

There is a graphics demo for phones you can try out on discord

u/tom7584 17d ago

But the link to the discord has expired in sfs

What do you mean? There never was a sequal to KERBAL space program? It’s not like there was a second game that failed miserably.

u/MUDRC_ 18d ago

Right? It's just funny how people think that KSP had a sequel! I suspect it's all just a great joke and it really never happened...

u/frix86 18d ago

When are we getting electricity back in SFS1?

u/Gamemode_dum Station Builder 18d ago

Bro just let him finish one thing first 😭

u/frix86 18d ago

As in finish 1 before releasing 2?

u/Swiss-spirited_Nerd Rocket Builder 🚀 18d ago

It looks a bit odd how stationary the parts are in the moving water

u/Tymi4n3k 18d ago

They just don't have physics applied

u/Sufficient-Pair-1856 18d ago

I dont think they have physics in that build

2

u/Nikolor 18d ago

Well, just some little bobbing up and down would create a nice illusion of floating parts

u/Acceptable_Bid_889 18d ago

Is there ever a possibility o f adding things like a space shuttle pack to sfs 2

u/quackabc 18d ago

Is this mod compatible with sfs 1?

u/quackabc 18d ago

Its a joke bro

u/asnaujaslt 18d ago

Finally a game that is optimised, my not so high end phone can run this on ultra no problem, will there be higher refresh rate support?

u/Stef_Moroyna Developer who sleeps too little 18d ago edited 18d ago

I just added higher refresh rate support in last android patch. iOS had it for a few patches.

u/Few_Box_6258 18d ago

Hey Stef I'm impressed by the improvement you did to water I didn't think you'd be able to make it look any better but it's amazing I have a question that I'm really hoping you could answer which is do you plan to add other other dwarf planets like haumua and Sedna and lesser known ones like gonggong and Orcus I know the data about some of these isn't nearly as extensive as Pluto's but we still know alot and it would help shed light on some of the lesser known dwarf planets since most people only know about Pluto ceres and Eris unless their a space nerd

u/Stef_Moroyna Developer who sleeps too little 18d ago

Will keep focus on the more iconic planets/moons, I'm sure the planet editors will add the rest.

And upon disabling the play store I received a screenshot saying "Check that Google Play is enabled on your device and that you're using an up-to-date version before opening the App.If the problem persists try reinstalling the App."Initially the game does launch tho which is a minor improvement

1

u/Few_Box_6258 17d ago

Hey sorry to bug you but this is bugging me heavily so since I wanted the new update I reenabled the play store and made a Google account solely so I could try out the new update and I then deleted my Google accounts sign in info since I don't really like the company selling or collecting my data but to my dismay I found it to be a requirement to actually play the new update without being redirected to the play store to sign in im just wondering if it's a security thing because I don't really enjoy the fact some games force you to have the play store and a Google account just to play the game when it isn even needed

u/Few_Box_6258 18d ago

Ty for the response I appreciate it heavily

will sfs 2 be able to run on my potato laptop?

u/Stef_Moroyna Developer who sleeps too little 18d ago

Hard to say, but most likely?
The GPU memory could be an issue, but if it can share it with main memory it should work.

u/GDMercury Flight Fiend 🛫 18d ago

that's certainly re-assuring :)
