an experimental basketball-inspired propulsion device for daring Kerbal engineers. Using a series of radially arranged pistons, the KPS-LL generates powerful bursts of thrust by sequentially extending and retracting, much like a mechanical heartbeat. The design creates a rhythmic "bouncing" motion, propelling objects in a controlled, albeit chaotic, trajectory. While primarily intended for surface-based exploration, some brave Kerbals and Droods have suggested using it for low-gravity lunar hops or even as an alternative method for basketball training at the Munar/Lunar Space Academy. Warning: excessive piston force may lead to unexpected lateral spins and catastrophic "slam dunks" on landing.

    @Hyperant Yep! I can't remember 100% but I think it's an activation group that starts the pistons. Leave them running or you can try to time them to extend at the right time. But you can just leave this sucker running and it will auto-explore moons for you.

    Are you saying this can "roll" and bounce on Luna? I mean, if it does, that's way cool.

    @ItzThunderStrike Believe it or not it can actually explore fairly well. Better than any rover I've made, that's for sure lol.
