Scott Manley | Is This New Rocket Simulator Worth Buying? Juno New Origins V1.0! @scottmanley | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 3 hours ago
Juno: New Origins is a rebranding of Simple Rockets 2 because I guess the system is a lot less simple that It once was. It lets you build and simulate rockets, aircraft, rovers and even ships using the simple block based construction tools, and you can take these to other planets or even build your own planets.
It's been around for a few years and just left 'early access' beta, adding a career mode which makes it more of a game, but there's no need to do that if you just want to build and fly rockets there's a sandbox mode which has no limitations.
Reasons you might prefer this over Kerbal Space Program:
* Procedural part design
* Autopilot is the default way of flying
* Programmable flight computers
* Lower CPU loads because of no internal physics.
* Support for iOS and Android
* No little green men
Of course, KSP makes it easier to built a rocket, and the rockets flex under load, like the real thing, so it's a matter of preference.
