A reminder/ warning (that can be turned off via settings) to add necessary parts before launching a craft (i.e. going into the flight mode). Some examples are :

  • Battery (when a craft has electronics but not a battery/all empty batteries)
  • Solar Panels (when a craft has batteries)
  • RCS tanks (when a craft has RCS thrusters but no rcs tanks/all empty tanks)
  • Parachutes (when a craft has space capsule or an astronaut chair)
  • Fuel warning when a engine is connected to a fuel tank of different fuel type(engine and fuel tank have different fuel types)
  • A staging reminder would also be appreciated and considered helpful by many
  • Unconnected parts
  • Gyroscopes (in case there is only a command chip and no capsules/RCS to provide attitude-control)
  • First stage TWR<1 at sea-level (The thing is, in the performance analyzer, the default altitude is set to space, and some times it happens that we tweak our first stage engine while the altitude is set to space, and that ofcourse causes TWR problems at launch, so that might be helpful)

    That could be helpful for new players, but please with a option to deactivate. Reminds me of an older suggestion to add an "beginner mode" With limited part selection In order not to overwhelm new players.
