I'm bored what should i do in Kerbal Space Program?

[KerbalKid]

Yeah i'm kinda bored of Kerbal Space Program, I Know unlikely but i am kinda bored.

 

What should i do?

[Bigbootie]

Take a break and play something else.

[Brownhair2]

Set up a base or station at another planet

[RoyalVengeance]

Experiment with monoprop puff engines , it's fun I tell ya.

[John FX]

land and return from Eve.

[Majorjim!]

Yeah don't get burnt out. Take a break from the game. Take a walk, watch a sci-fi movie or a documentary about space exploration.

 After a good BBC space doc I find myself filled with inspiration.

[Gannaf]

Install Real Solar System, Realism Overhaul, Realistic Progression, all recommended mods, plan to build a self-sustaining city on mars and then quit because there aint nobody got time for that.

[pandaman]

Absolutely nothing wrong with taking a break. 

On the other hand, if you want inspiration check out the challenges thread, even if you don't do any they can give you ideas.

 

[Spartwo]

Definitely take a break. Don't force yourself to play, as if you do you'll be gone for much longer.

Take a break, but when you come back to the game, don't play in the stock system. Install a planet pack (I'd suggest Xen's Planet Collection because it alters the stock system as well as adding two interesting new worlds), and explore new places.

[Cairol]

Shut off your PC. Lean back on your couch. Pinch a pencil beteen your nose and upper lip and look out of the window.
You will get a good idea what project to do next in no time. (But don't cite me on that... )

I get bored of KSP all the time. This is partially due to the fact that I usually play it for hours and hours a day every day for weeks on end until I get tired of it. All I have to do is take a break for a week or sometimes more, get back into an old game for a while, and when you boot up KSP again, you'll be having so much fun you'll wonder why you stopped in the first place (until you get burnt out again).

[Alpha 360]

what you should do is set up a schedule where you do about an hour or two doing things and however long you want on planning what you do next. Since I'm a kid I have to take breaks all the time, never playing more than an hour and thirty minutes. This is very helpful for me and I recommend it to you so that you'll never stop playing

[wumpus]

Skyrim, Civilization (civ V is available on Linux), whatever.  The Steam Summer Sale is on now, so you are in luck (until July 4).

When you come back, I'd recommend Realism Overhaul.  Start correcting many of your KSP misconceptions about space (I'd assume your exponential increase in orbital mechanics knowledge has flattened out by the time you are bored).

WHY dear Kerbal of the Sky WHY did you have to post that there's a summer sale on Steam?

Curse you!

[TheSaint]

Turn the PC off. Read a book. It's summertime, get outside, get some fresh air. Go hiking, hit the beach if it's near you. Rent a kayak, they're awesome fun. 

[michaelhester07]

Set the record for the fastest speed you can achieve right before hitting the lights at the end of the runway at KSC.

[TK421d]

Hmm, what to do?  Well, when was the last time you hired all available applicants from the academy, loaded them all up on a "training mission"  then shot them right into the sun?

 

there must be some lesson to be learned from that, so if its done in the name of science, it must be ok.

Space Engineers is on a very good sale right now, USD$ 7.50.  It's like KSP in some ways, and works as an anti-burnout for me.

[klgraham1013]

Stop playing.  Find something else of interest.  Come back when 1.2.4 comes out.

Basically what I'm doing.  If I'm being honest.

Edited June 28, 2016 by klgraham1013

[KerbalKyle45kk]

Build a Replica Of the Kraken and destroy the KSC?

[pandaman]

As many others have said, if you're genuinely bored take a break. Nothing wrong with that.  If you want to play, but don't know what project to take on have a look at the challenges thread, that has some good ideas for quick 'have a go for a laugh' things or more in depth projects, that could give you some ideas.

I Would go outside and catch lizards, perhaps even draw them but i live in Australia

and all the lizards aren't out because it's winter :c

Here are a few things you can do:

Chores, do some cleaning around the house
Do your homework if you're in school.
Get a job or try to work overtime if you already have one
Spend more time with your kids or loved ones
Try to find loved ones to add to your life

And THEN, when you feel like you need a break from reality, then and only then kick back with some Kerbal Space Program.

Or just play some other game.

One other possibility: try a hard(er) level in career see what you can do with few parts and a shoestring budget.  Build an empire from nothing.
