Multiple Flag Designs?

[Npreadr]

Thought I'd ask the pros here on how to place different flags within the same game save file?  A few YouTube videos show multiple flag designs in one game. What must I do to copy this beautiful feature?

I know you pick a flag design in the beginning of a game save, but is it possible to change that design during the game? If so, does that also change the design of flags already planted?

Thanks in advance!

Hello, @Npreadr, and welcome aboard!

 

Yes, you can change the flag after you've started a game. If you want to change it for a specific ship, then when you're building look next to the name bar. You should see the current flag there. Click on it, and you should be presented with the full list of flags.

You can also change the save's flag. When looking at the KSC, before entering a building, click on the flagpole near the HQ. Again, you should see the same list of flags as when you started the game.

Hope this helps!

Kerbals automatically place whatever flag their ship is using.

@Npreadr You can also add your own flags by adding a .png picture file to the following folder: Kerbal Space Program / Game Data / Squad / Flags /

The preferred size is 256x160 pixels, but it'll stretch things to fit. Also, you need to reload ksp for them to appear.

Now you can spread NyanCat to the cosmos! Or, whatever other picture may be near and dear to your heart.

Have fun!
