Nicee

NO WAY IT FINALLY HAPPENED (Ive been checking on the app waiting for thr update button to show kinda weird Ik but I love this game). The docking ports are awesome Ive already make the ITS on the iss and I find it useful that thereโ€™s infinite monopropellant (in the future you could make it an option for infinite fuel and monopropellant and maybe add cheats for testing spacecraft functions before the full mission). It would make me so happy if you added back solar panels and satellite dishโ€™s (even just for decoration). Also, Phobos will be nice (especially with the launch of the MMX mission yes Im a nerd but itโ€™s not even that obscure โœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ญ) as itโ€™s my fav lil space potato. Undo button would be cool, thanks for the good game.

Good overall

Needs solar panels, more planets. And what am I supposed to dock to, so add an ISS or something. And I want to control where I spawn. Please add an update that has this stuff. Good game tho.

YAYAY

haii!!! this game is epic, i have an idea!! (after or while readding what was removed in the rework. idrc when if you decide to add this)
inflatable heat shields, rover parts (like arm, camera, powered wheels for rough ground, etc)
nuclear power. batteries and power systems. just wanted to share some ideas
