This KSP Mod Makes Space Stations AMAZING 🤩

Today I install 2 amazing mods, the first being Hud Replacer with Ztheme to make the dated UI of Kerbal Space Program more modern, and, the main event, the incredible FreeIVA mod, something that I SERIOUSLY underestimated until trying it for myself!

honestly the best thing that ksp 2 did was bring more mods to ksp 1

Matt, you missed an exciting feature! right click while holding the left alt can grab things inside the ship like coffee mugs and the extinguisher. The extinguisher can push you backward when holding the left mouse button.

I forget who said it but "the best thing about KSP is with enough mods you can make KSP2"

FreeIVA even simulates the coriolis effect in gravity rings. When you jump straight up you drift sightly spin-wards. The distance depends on the size and speed of the ring. I love that so much.

To make IVAs even better, you should get DE-iva extendor. Adds clickable buttons, and with rasterpropmonitor, adds screens that you can use to control your spacecraft. I honestly can't live without these mods, since now you can shut the hud off, and fly your rockets from the cockpit.

Leaves all the hatches open...micrometeorite strike kills everyone...😂 22:09

17:31 As someone who works from home in my pajamas, I can assure you it takes more than gravity to prevent muscle atrophy 🤣

[springnutica]

Matt With free iba you can interact with objects like fire extinguishers which propel you around your space station which is a good pass time

[manvslife]

HE FINALLY USED FREEIVA I'M SO PROUD, now all you need is to download the Near Future mod set and Outer Planets mod and your conversion to never being able to go back to vanilla will be complete

7:44 I couldn’t help but be distracted by that beautiful thunderstorm cloud in the background there

[DarkTheFailure]

Fun fact: the reason there is a gym on that gravity ring is because isn't at full kerbin/earth gravity! If you look at the rings information in he VAB, it says it only produces 0.5G (probably for better structurally integerity and less motion sickness from a lower rotation speed). 0.5G is enough to reduces to effects of low gravity but you will still definitely face issues. thus the gym would hopefully fix everything.

If you look closely to the ring parts they actually have a smaller counter-rotating ballast spinning already. Real neat way to not have to bother about implementing the torque on the rest of a craft

[thirdboy]

FINALLY you downloaded FreeIVA, another cool thing about the mod is that when you enter bakc in the station after an Eva, it automatically puts you in FreeIVA and I front of that specific hatch

[PhNIXx]

26:29 Oooh! "Descent" is on the screen. I played that as a kid!

[RontoGoldlust]

Free IVA is great ❤ The process of right-clicking a vessel and using a menu to teleport your kerbal to different modules around your craft is quite immersion breaking. Free IVA changes that entirely

The attention to detail to do all those interior rooms is insane, hats off to the mod creator. Cant wait to see a surface base using this

[JonnyOThan]

Brought a great smile to my face!

But @MattLowne you really should read the FreeIVA controls window…you didn’t pick up any objects!

[NightBeWheat]

As i was watching this i was recording footage for a machinima KSP short film, mostly first person FreeIVA shots. FreeIVA provides great opportunities, maybe even horror films (so far i know of only 1).

[Lunria]

7:10 - 7:30 that sound and that sight, just, wow. That deserves a salute.
