The first patch for Kerbal Space Program 2 has landed, and it is filled with 'approximately 300 changes'.
While the list of fixes and improvements is extensive, Simpson does state the patch"does not fix every bug in the game". Rather, this update"represents the first step in an ongoing process that will continue through Early Access".
Simpson asks players to"keep in mind that the order in which fixes roll out is not just contingent on priority - it also depends on the complexity of the problem that's causing the bug."Bug Fixes:Fixed trajectory intercept patch not showing when captured by a Celestial BodyFixed stack decouplers staying connected to the vessel when staged with certain engines that have fairings enabledFixed dV incorrectly using reinforced joint part connections for fuel flow calculations Fix for engine thrust being deflected at too high of a value when a part obstructs an engine's exhaust

Smoking and healthcare expenditure reductions associated with the California Tobacco Control Program, 1989 to 2019: A predictive validationBackground Previous research used data through 2008 to estimate a model for the effect of the California Tobacco Control Program (CTCP) that used cumulative real per capita tobacco control expenditure to predict smoking behavior (current adult smoking prevalence and mean cigarette consumption per current smoker). Predicted changes in smoking behavior due to the CTCP were used to predict its effect on health care expenditure. This research updates the model using the most recently available data and estimates CTCP program effect through 2019. Methods The data used in the previous research were updated, and the original model specification and a related predictive forecast model were re-estimated. The updated regression estimates were compared to those previously published and used to update estimates of CTCP program effect in 2019 dollars. Results There was no evidence of structural change in the previously estimated model. The estimated effect of the CTCP program expenditures on adult current smoking prevalence and mean consumption per adult current smoker has remained stable over time. Over the life of the program, one additional dollar per capita of program expenditure was associated with a reduction of current adult smoking prevalence by about 0.05 percentage point and mean annual consumption per adult current smoker by about 2 packs. Using updated estimates, the program prevented 9.45 (SE 1.04) million person-years of smoking and cumulative consumption of 15.7 (SE 3.04) billion packs of cigarettes from 1989 to 2019. The program produced cumulative savings in real healthcare expenditure of $544 (SE $82) billion using the National Income and Product Accounts (NIPA), and $816 (SE $121) billion using the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) measure of medical costs. During this time, the CTCP expenditure was $3.5 billion. Conclusion A simple predictive model of the effectiveness of the CTCP program remained stable and retains its predictive performance ou
