[Kerbal Space Program patch 1.1.2 is now live!]

The first time, I clicked Update in the Launcher.

The Second time, I ran the Launcher so it would download the Patcher, then quit and ran the Patcher directly. I was concerned about the Launcher having a file open that the Patcher wanted to update, because I thought I saw an error message in the Patcher log that implied that. Something about an output log. There were no errors at all in the second patching.

One annoying side effect of the Patcher is that because it runs a Windows utility to propagate ACL's, my settings.cfg ends up read-only. That problem has been around forever. That Patcher script is a little excessive in that it runs the utilities to change file ownership and propagate ACL's on all files and subdirectories in the ksp_win folder. It's not really necessary to cover all the mods I've installed in GameData, it's just a waste of time. Patcher should limit it's update to files it's downloaded and not just shotgun everything.

@LordFerret I feel your pain with a slow DSL connection. I have the same problem. I recommend you use a download manager that can restart downloads. I use DownThemAll in Firefox.

[Kerbal Space Program patch 1.1.2 is now live!]

I'm finding some anomalies with the 1.1.2 patch. I have performed the patch twice, once on a 1.1.0 install already patched to 1.1.1, and a second time on a fresh 1.1.0 install. I see the same results.

1. The version number in the readme.txt is 1.0.5 after the patch.
2. The splash screen for KSP_x64.exe shows the version v1.1.1.1250 (x64)
3. When I try to run KSP.exe, it displays a magenta squiggle on a black screen, and that's it.
4. The file modification date of KSP.exe after the patch is 11/10/2015 7:22 PM

I think there's something really wrong with what the patcher is downloading.

I'd like to download a fresh copy of 1.1.2, but the server has been in maintenance for the last six or seven hours.
