Here I try to compare the general performance of the latest KSP 2 version with KSp 2 0.1.5, KSP 1 Stock and KSP 1 Modded. I do an Apollo 11 style Mun landing with docking maneuvers both in Kerbin and Mun orbit. All in all a nice performance upgrade and a big step in the right direction for KSP 2.

🖥 *PC specs*
- Windows 10
- Ryzen 7 5800X3D @ 3.40 GHz
- RTX 3080
- Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus
- 32 GB RAM

🚨 *Issues I found while recording the footage*

*KSP 1 (Stock and modded)*
- Wobbly rocket (OMG WTF my world view is shattered cancel this game they lied to us)

*KSP 1 (Modded)*
- Oversteering issues during burns

*KSP 2 (0.1.5 and 0.2.0)*
- Decoupling the upper stage of the lunar lander needs to be done in flight, otherwise the detached vessel inherits the landed state and has no orbit lines
- Maneuver countdown sometimes missing either the lights or the yellow bar

*KSP 2 (0.1.5)*
- Wobbly rocket (somewhat mitigated with struts)
- RCS thrusters on command module not working because of blocked status (I assume they think they are still inside the fairing)
- Antenna on command module not extendable because of blocked status (again I suspect the fairing)
- Missing portrait images on Kerbin crew transfer
- Vessel jumping on Mun when a Kerbal EVA's

*KSP 2 (0.2.0)*
- Camera suddenly changing it's view angle around mun
- Removing a fuel tank from the resource transfer window didn't remove it from the resource list
- Two of the three main parachutes on the Command Capsule didn't deploy despite being armed and staged
