Reentry should be, imo, more sensitive when crafts re-enter the atmosphere because small crafts that don’t produce as much drag, barely heat up enough upon reentry to go boom. In reality, a large tin can would burn up in the atmosphere from excessive friction quite easily.

my spacecraft literally just doesn’t have a heat shield on it so it can reduce weight and make room to integrated thrusters. the heat shield is useless and all it does for, at least my spacecraft, is provide a ton of drag slowing down the spacecraft a lot, which is not necessary since I already slow down plenty without it.

it’s also annoying af when I de-orbit boosters then I have a bunch of trash on the ocean. I have to literally use remaining fuel in order to get it hot enough to explode.

    @Staticalliam7 why should I go back to discord? There’s nothing there for me but degenerates that call you dogwater for enjoying a social life.
