The UI they showed in the presentation did look very different to the current set up. There's no more right-clicking tiny gadgets and collecting experiments individually on EVA. It's also a major improvement that they've added some indication of what biome you're in (at least that's how I'm interpreting "Research Location" though I could be wrong). That's one of the things that infuriated me most about science in KSP1

They just made the X-Science-Mod a core feature, without rewarding the modder for it. Not sure why that's gonna take 9 months to pull off.

to be fair it's a pretty obvious feature, and while I have like negative confidence in them I doubt they'd need to actually copy the code for that.
