Although this would be extremely fun and educational, I don’t think this would be considered simple as in the name “Simple Rockets.” I could see it however as a hidden advanced feature. If a newcomer/inexperienced player was presented with it, he would most likely become overwhelmed and discouraged.
The games main purpose of this game (correct me if I’m wrong) is to introduce concepts and inspire a want for more knowledge on the subject of space and rocketry. The game, if simple, should promote intrigue into the subject by allowing players to achieve goals (ex. landing on the moon) which would inspire players to consider a profession in that field.
@WNP78 I didn't say AR kit was the best AR out there. I do think it would be better for SR2 than Hololens. I simply don't see how you could use the Hololens for anything other than viewing it. If you were to be using your phone while in the editor, then tapping on the screen and dragging and dropping parts while in AR mode doesn't seem like it would be hard to do.
If you know how a head mounted AR would be useful for building a rocket in the editor, would you care to enlighten me?
@WNP78 I don’t see how it would work with holo lens nor other similar products. Apple’s AR kit seems a better fit in this situation. I don’t think I’m staring at a brick wall. I understand the pros and cons of Apple as well as other companies/products.
There is no such thing as an AR headset. VR(Virtual reality) is you in a virtual world. AR is where the virtual object is in the real world. Here is an example of AR@WNP78
Will there be multipla... Oh nvm. Probably should have read the entire post first.

Totally sincere and definitely not predictive typing.

+1 6.8 years agoTrue, but you could just turn AR mode off and it would leave your view in the same position. @WNP78
