Hello! The release of the console ports has been a bumpy road to say the least. Porting pc games to consoles is an enormously complex task and although we've encountered many issues while doing so, we've learned a lot in the way. We are aware of the frustration that many players encountered when acquiring the console ports of our game and apologies are not enough to amend this. We have to prove ourselves to the community by taking action and solving these issues, so that the players get the game that they deserve. We're glad to announce that we've taken a step forward in the right direction and we've finally released an Xbox One patch that solves the save file issue that players have been experiencing. We also want to let players know that we haven't forgotten about the PS4 port and its european release. We're focusing our efforts to solve the issues as soon as possible. Right now we have a QA team dedicated to test the latest PS4 patch that Flying Tiger has been developing. Unfortunately, this patch isn’t ready for certification yet, but we will keep you informed about any advancement regarding its release. Thanks for your comprehension and support! The KSP Dev Team

I got enhanced edition the day it came out and I've been loving it, but I've been wondering is it possible to maybe get mod support for KSP on Xbox/PS4? Thanks!

Is anyone else having this issue with the xboxone version? Once I reach space and shut down my engines they will not restart (if I use time acceleration). It seems to happen if I throttle them down to zero as well, if I use time acceleration. Like for example if I am headed to the Mun and throttle down my engine, once I try to start a retro burn to enter orbit of Mun, my engine will not restart if I had shut them down earlier, or throttle back up if I use time acceleration. Is this a bug or am I doing something incorrectly? They seem to restart or throttle back up just fine, if I avoid using time acceleration.

im getting this really annoying glitch that seems to happen to every single ship that i build as of late, after a certain amount of time in flight it begins to spin rapidly in one direction and doesnt stop no matter what i do, turning on sas causes the spinning to stop but i cant turn in any direction but the direction the ship was uncontrollably spinning in. this has happened to the last 4 ships that i have built regardless of whether i had clipped parts or not, my controller also has no deadzone or joystick issues. does anybody know a way to fix this problem?

This is a thread that is completely focused on the console version of K.S.P. I started this request thread because I feel that it is unfair that us console players are restricted from mods from a game that has one of the best mod support. So in this thread hopefully it's reviewed and considered by the devs is a list of mods that i think should be added to the console edition as stock parts and features. K.A.S (Kerbal attachment system) so players have better attaching options. K.I.S (Kerbal inventory system) so players can have more inventory items BD Armory continued to give players more diversity with flight. Giving them more things to do with space planes. Hullcams vds because what is space without telescopes. And cameras are everywhere now so let's bring kerbol to the 21st century. Magic smoke industries Infernal robotics so that we can have more robotic parts an control over them. B9 Aerospace and airplane plus giving the player a wider variety with space plane parts Kerbal planetary base systems giving the players better base modules to build on planets Feline utility rovers for better Rover builds. Tac live support (as a difficulty option) to give the players a more realistic space travel experience. If you support this notion please leave a list of your own requests or comment about why certain request should or shouldn't be.

My xbox one fps goes down heavily when I play KSP Enhanced Edition. How is this possible and is this normal? Is there a solution? Because it is not playable.

Mijn xbox one fps gaat zwaar omlaag als ik KSP Enhanced Edition speel. Hoe kan dit en is dit normaal? Is er een oplossing? Want het is niet te spelen.

I got enhanced edition the day it came out and I've been loving it, but I've been wondering is it possible to maybe get mod support for KSP on Xbox/PS4? Thanks!

Is it just me, or has anyone else launched a vehicle only to find that the wrong crew is in it after you manually assigned which crew you wanted in it AND saved that vehicle afterwards? I'm like, no KSP, I'm not an idiot, stop trying to replace my scientist with a pilot! Is this intended behavior or a bug? #HalfwayToMun

This is another reason the controls for console need to be given further consideration. This just happened to be posted exactly 3 years ago yesterday. I spent an entire afternoon and evening designing a rover to gather the remaining surface science on Mun. Over 6 hours later (real life time) MunRover and the ship that transported her there are finally on the South Pole and ready to get down to business. I push forward on the left joystick to accelerate aaand BANG!! she takes a nosedive and destroys a part on the front of the rover. I load the quicksave I had just done and try again, going slower this time. Same result, but in slow motion. After reading the thread above and a few others about motorized wheel settings and rover design, I switch the reaction wheels to SAS only and try again. This time it nearly does a backflip. The body is above the CoM and the fastest wheels in the game are below it in low gravity, you do the math. The bigger issue, however, is something another player said in that thread. PC players are presumably able to set separate controls for their wheels (translational motion) and flight controls (rotational motion). The only thing we get close to that on console is setting all of the Reaction Wheels on the ship to SAS only but then you run the risk of not being about to correct your orientation midair if you take even a small jump too fast. KSP isn't a car racing game, but seriously, why doesn't the game know when you're using tires and switch to some kind of ground vehicle mode? The effort it takes just to get my rover to stop trying to pitch and roll is a little ridiculous. Something as simple as gas, brakes, and steering isn't a lot to ask for.

I was thinking with all of the PC versions and the outdated advice associated with the older versions that may not be accurate for console version 1.00 there should be a sub-forum just for console Q&A. I search for info about some topics and all I can find are threads that are years old from several major versions previous to what the console edition is based on. Console players wouldn't have to wonder if the advice they're receiving is current or not.

Update: Tried and failed to find a way to transfer fuel between tanks. The ones I have docked to my space station around Kerbin are pretty useless now. I'd have to make a new ship designed around attaching them to a place where the CoM wouldn't be thrown off too badly. Maybe separate the engine from the rest of the ship and insert it between them.

Maybe I am a dunce since reporting a bug by way of the bug tracker seems beyond me. Do you have to make up a new login? The bug I would dearly like an answer to is pretty straight forward but so far no one has been able to give a solid answer. Once I reach space (above 75,000 meters) I am unable to start, restart, or throttle up my liquid engines if I use time warp. I am on a xboxone, using cursor presets (although from what I can determine the issue exists with the other presets as well) and if I use time warp below 75,000 meters I am fine, once I get above 75,000 meters if I throttle down my engines or shut them off, or even if I haven't reached that stage yet, once I engage time warp, I am unable to start a liquid engine, restart an engine or throttle back up. Is this a known bug, anyone else having this problem, and is this going to be fixed in a (hopefully) upcoming patch? I have included solar panels and batteries in my design, so lack of power is not the issue.

Hello everyone! We are super excited to announce that Kerbal Space Program Enhanced Edition is coming out on January 16th, 2018 and it will be available on both Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Kerbal Space Program Enhanced Edition is a new console version built from the ground up in collaboration with the experienced team of BlitWorks. Exclusive to the Enhanced Edition, we included re-worked and console-optimized UI, the addition of a new control scheme for the maneuver nodes controls, and three completely reworked controller presets that players will be able to switch between at any time during play: Cursor, Radial and Simplified. Click here to learn more. Kerbal Space Program Enhanced Edition also incorporates the KSP 1.2.2 “Loud and Clear” update. This version includes a broad range of improvements and features that will improve the overall game experience from the prior console version, such as the introduction of CommNet and KerbNet, more tweakable options of many parts, a complete fuel system overhaul, and much more! We also want to reiterate our commitment to stand by our promise to the owners of the previous console version, who will be able to redeem the Enhanced Edition free of cost. KSP Enhanced Edition will appear on your library as a separate game and no data will be overwritten from the older versions, so you won’t lose your progress in those versions. However, because the Enhanced Edition was built from the ground up, save files from the previous version will not be compatible with the new Enhanced Edition. But that does mean you’ll be able to get those trophies and achievements a second time! Happy launchings! [UPDATE] Here are the detailed release timings for the various territories where the game is going to be released on both platforms: · Xbox One: KSP Enhanced Edition will be available on the Xbox Store at Midnight in your Local Time Zone. · PlayStation 4 (North and South America): KSP Enhanced Edition will be available on the PlayStation Store at Midnight EST. · PlayStation 4 (Europe): KSP Enhanced Edition will be available on the PlayStation Store at Midnight in your Local Time Zone. · PlayStation 4 (SGT/HKT/TWT): KSP Enhanced Edition will be available on the PlayStation Store between 10:00am and 12:00pm in your Local Time Zone.

Hello everyone! We have an exciting announcement to make regarding Kerbal Space Program on console. Here at the KSP HQ, we put the players at the heart of every decision we make and everything we do. We are very fortunate that an amazing community grew around KSP, whose members are passionate, supportive, engaged and provide us with invaluable feedback that we are always monitoring and listening to. We are currently working to bring Kerbal Space Program 1.2.2. - Loud and Clear! as a free update for console versions, allowing players to enjoy the game at its fullest. We are working hand in hand with BlitWorks, who specialize in optimizing PC games for consoles and have worked on several hit independent games for several platforms. We’re thrilled about our collaboration and we’re certain that our conjoint efforts will bear the fruits we are hoping for. The latest Update, Kerbal Space Program 1.2.2 - Loud and Clear! for consoles will let you enjoy a broad range of improvements and features that will enrich the overall game experience, such as the introduction of CommNet and KerbNet, a rewrite of the Stability Assist System (SAS) that makes your launches more accurate and fuel efficient, more tweakable options for many parts, a complete fuel system redesign, and much more! This update will be FREE for all owners of the Xbox One and PS4 versions, regardless of the date of purchase. Moreover, we are also very happy to announce, that with this update's launch, the PS4 port will be made available in Europe, too! Our goal is to release the Updates early next year. Here are some of the highlights for this update: Set up your own communications networks and have better control over your probes even when they cannot establish a direct connection. Link your probes back to Kerbin via an antenna to be completely autonomous and build relay networks for better science transmission! Use satellites for reconnaissance purposes, scan the terrain below you, find biomes and anomalies, and place custom waypoints with a targeting interface. The Fuelflow system has been rewritten and now you have total control over how the fuel flows through your vessels! The stability of Wheels has been greatly improved. Your rovers, wheeled vehicles will now turn and handle smoothly, making the overall driving experience more pleasant. Aircraft are also more stable, and all wheels have realistic load limits. You can see the full 1.2.2 changelog here : =================================== v1.2.0 ============================================================ +++ *Fix data corruption file issue *Fix freezing issues at VAB and SHP +++Unity 5.4 * Engine change from 5.2 to 5.4.0p4 +++Libraries and Packages * Implemented Text Mesh Pro, which basically vectorizes all of our fonts, making them look much better, especially at larger font sizes. Also has a lot of extra utility that we can leverage for various effects. * Upgraded Vectrosity to latest version. * Upgraded Vehicle Physics Pro to latest version. +++Code cleanup * Heavily reduced garbage generation caused by foreach loops, Linq usage, and various other things. * Made sure that all of our singleton classes properly clean themselves up. * Optimized KerbalEVA. * Rewrote CrewManifest and related crew handling (roster, vessel crew list, etc). * Optimized PartModules. * Optimize latitude/longitude/altitude calls to often use a combined get-all method. * Fix how some enumerator interfaces are declared in classes. * Optimized waypoint site name generation to generate a lot less garbage with its string lists. * Many part modules now cache parts instead of polling the entire vessel multiple times per frame. * Revised how most forces and torques are applied (see note on this subject below in Moddability). * Added DoubleCurve * ScenarioModules now awake and load during game load and so are valid in modules' OnStart. * Considerable work to Krakensbane and FloatingOrigin to improve precision and performance and lower garbage. * Various ISRU fixes and performance improvements. * Default KSPEvents and KSPActions to being nonpersistent in terms of state. This means all their fields won't be serialized/deserialized to and from the save game files. * Now always use g0 = 9.80665 and G (big G) = 6.67408e-11 for gravitational constants. +++Flow Overhaul * Rewrote resource flow entirely. Now just four flow modes. Can set per-tank priority for all but AllVessel and NoFlow. Surface crossfeed for rocket engines as well as jets. Fixed priority issues. Much faster. PartResources no longer MonoBehaviours. Can set crossfeed per attach node. Electric Charge now uses STAGE_PRI so can be prioritized. Resource transfer in flight can be set to require valid crossfeed for those resources which obey crossfeed. With Advanced Tweakables on, can see flow graph in VAB/SPH (right-click on a part). +++SAS * Fixed SAS unlocking for all ships in physics range when maneuvering the ship in focus. * The code for the older “Stability Assist” and somewhat newer “Pilot Steering” modes has been unified. * SAS now dynamically adjusts for the vessel’s mass properties and available control authority. * SAS uses a “stability decay” method to reduce oscillations (or twitching) when very near the target orientation. * Pilot Steering modes now include a “coast” and “stop” mode when transitioning between steering points. +++Wheels * WheelColliders are now properly handled by collision manager, and no longer require the wheel "blocking" workaround to clip into other parts. * Fix hill "sticking" force overcompensating, resulting in a not so slow drift uphill when parked on one with wheels or legs. * Wheel deployment modules now search along the animation timeline upon retraction for the time closest to where the wheel suspension is located, instead of starting from 100%. This fixes the hop when retracting landing legs. * Added tweakable that allows player to specify whether his wheels deploy while shielded in a cargo bay. * Fix landing legs being exported to the wrong collision layer. * Wheel gravity is now properly handled in a standard manner, which should fix a good deal of instability. * Fix EVA kerbals blowing up wheels on contact. They now go through them. * Fixed landing legs teleporting from a semi-deployed state to a semi-retracted state when retracted. * Wheel damage does not process damage for two seconds after a vessel loads, prevents spontaneous explosions. * Suspension colliders are no longer disabled for 0.5 seconds upon retract, causing them to fall through the ground momenarily, blowing up your engines. * Deployable landing gear and legs now have deployment sounds. +++Communications Networks * Additional functionality and gameplay components to the Antenna and Probe parts through a series of distinct but related mechanics. When CommNet is enabled, probes will require a connection back to Kerbin or to a control point to have full control, and crewed vessels lacking pilots will have slightly limited control without such a connection. Relays can extend the range of such connections and bounce signals around planets and moons that would otherwise occlude. Science transmission receives a bonus for high signal strength. New antenna parts allow building complex networks, which can be visualized in map view. See KSPedia for more details. +++KerbNet * Added KerbNet, which allows the player to see terrain under their satellite, and place custom waypoints with a targeting interface. Allows the player to see biomes and anomalies at higher levels. Scan field of view for KerbNet varies by part and smoothly changes between surface altitude and orbital altitude. * KerbNet allows all probes and labs manned by a scientist to map as long as they have a communications network connection that eventually bounces to Kerbin. * Gave KerbNet visibility modes to hide some of the interface around the map. * Gave KerbNet auto-refresh settings to allow it to refresh without player intervention. * Gave KerbNet enhanced mode, which activates on some vessels such as rovers to give them better sensors in certain situations. * Add game option that allows KerbNet to either orient to the orbit normal, preventing flipping when passing over the poles, or to orient to north, which is less disorienting for some players. * Many aspects of KerbNet given flavor and fluff. Scanning a sun results in yellow and white noise, scanning a gas giant is similar except hued based on that planet. Stars and scan static can appear in the background past the horizon of a scan. * Resources can specify a scientific abbreviation. Utilized in KerbNet for the mode icon. +++Debug Window * Completely overhauled the debug window to utilize new Unity GUI. * New debug console has syntax highlighting that highlights classes with persistent pastel colors if they bracket their names. [Bracket] your class names in debug logs modders. * New debug console has command input support which is moddable, type /help for a full listing of commands, and what they do. * Added new debug screen for creating kerbals with specific names, genders, skills, levels, and classes. * Debug options for displaying errors/exceptions as screen messages. * Added set orbit debug cheat screen. * Added rendezvous controls to set orbit debug cheat screen. +++Orbits * All anomalies (ObT, mean anomaly, eccentric anomaly, true anomaly) are now consistently negative when approaching the periapsis for both elliptical and hyperbolic trajectories (previously, only hyperbolic trajectories used negative anomalies). This means that eccentric anomaly and true anomaly are now in the range -pi..pi instead of 0..2pi for elliptical trajectories. * Reference frames instead of quaternions are used for calculating orbital position and velocity, leading to increased speed when rendering patched conics. * Improved precision in orbit calculations. * Rewrote orbit targeting / closest approach finding. * Fixed issues where objects jump when going on and off rails. * Fix target orientation markers when the target is on rails. * Refactored such that orbital position and velocity and vessel position and velocity are correct for the FixedUpdate cycle. * Made target relative velocity work for celestial bodies. * Trajectories that re-encounter a body just escaped are now detected. * Trajectories that encounter two bodies now correctly show the first encounter even if it is further out (eg, Mun stealing a Minmus encounter). * Elliptical encounter trajectories no longer flicker. * Conic patch settings (draw mode and limit) are now exposed in the Video Settings. * Added game option for legacy orbit targeting. * Map node labels space themselves out nicely when cluttered. * Targeting info for moons in other SoIs now works. +++Contracts * Contracts are now also weighted by celestial body, so if the player starts declining contracts to Jool, they will see them less often. * Contracts now keep track of if they have been viewed. There are three states: unseen, seen but not clicked, and clicked and read. * Contract weighting now applies negative weight if a contract has been viewed when it expires. * Exploration contracts now always appear in Mission Control if there is not one currently available. * Explore contracts overhauled, they now utilize the same logic World Firsts used to use to select a "package" of related objectives. They can appear multiple times per planet now, and should have a much more logical progression than they used to. * Exploration contract progression slowed slightly, now requires science on a planet before allowing a fly by of the next one. Also, in the early game, return from orbit and return from fly by are required before advancing on the Muns of the homeworld. * Removed old single objective World First contracts, other than the initial four. * Waypoint captions for survey contracts now state the altitude band of each waypoint. * Fix contract orbits not cleaning up properly when their contracts are cancelled as opposed to completed. * Grand tour contracts now require a new vessel to complete, so they cannot be cheesed by keeping one around that has seen every planet. * Fix contextual surveys not properly bouncing the navigation waypoint. * Asteroid recovery objective reworded and given a note for clarity. * Asteroid side objectives in facility construction contracts will now not appear unless the same requirements for asteroid recovery contracts to appear are met. * Crew transfer progress tracking objective reworded to make it clear that it does not need to utilize existing crew. * Reworded objective to hold above a waypoint in stationary orbit contracts for clarity. * If Kerbal G limits are enabled, tourists can either require going unconscious or require not going unconscious during the trip. Check the parameter details! * Adjusted Exploration contract flavor text to work better in multi-objective scenarios. +++Biomes * Biomes for many bodies have been redesigned for clarity, beauty, and utility. And we've hidden a few extra surprises around as well! +++Easter Eggs * Added hidden fun stuff to almost every planet. * Mohole given an empty PQSCity, which allows it to appear in KerbNet. * Gave many easter eggs colliders. * Fix Duna's SSTV not playing. * Unburied Duna's MSL. +++Other Work * Advanced Tweakables option in Gameplay Settings. With it off, some advanced features are hidden. Defaults off. * Autostrutting available for all parts (AT). * Autostruts can be gated behind a technology in career and science mode defined in Physics.cfg, by default it is the same technology regular struts are on. * Add grandparent mode to auto-struts. * Parachutes can have automatic holding of deployment until safe (AT). * Actuation toggles now affect symmetry counterparts in editor (some other RCS/gimbal bits do too). Also hidden under Advanced Tweakables (AT). * Utilize HSV color space in more locations. * Quadrupled the amount of loading screen messages. You know, the important stuff. * Loads of new options in the difficulty settings. * Science data can be transferred by the part-part transfer mechanic (for certain probe cores). * Added physics easing for when landed/splashed vessels come off rails. * Certain probe cores (and the new science container part) can transfer data with no EVA required. * There is an additional drag curve whose function is to raise drag coefficient to a power based on the mach number. This leads to blunter things having (relatively) more drag supersonic than they did and pointier things having (relatively) less than they did. Pods will slow down better on steep reentries and planes will produce drag in better proportion to how streamlined they are (less overpowered airplane drag). * Fairings now include support for placing multiple payloads in them (and showing trusses for said payloads). * Tourist contracts work better with the Kerbal Gee Tolerance option. * Add a small negative contract weight for contracts that are read but not accepted. * Existing resource narrow band scanner ported to KerbNet interface, allowing it to zoom, among other things. * Removed biome readout information and flag rendering on narrow band scanner. * Added ellipsis to many text labels and fields, to prevent overflow while looking nice. * Input keys in the settings screen automatically expand with screen resolution. * Default parachute deployment mode set to "when safe" - players everywhere rejoice. * All tooltips cooked to a nice golden color. * Added Viewmatic Survey Satellite stock relay craft. * Added /b4d455 command, which starts a game off with basically everything. * Background ambiance in the space center scene now fades smoothly between birds by day and crickets by night. * Background ambiance in the space center scene now fades out when at max time warp. * Background ambiance in general no longer always starts at zero, it randomly seeks when the scene loads. Hence, loading a game no longer immediately plays the exact same bird trill. * Most stock planes given a look over based on player feedback. * Added editor part categories for ground, electrical, communication, thermal, payload, and coupling parts. * Screen message text given much higher visibility. * Facilities in the space center now have verbose context menus in sandbox mode, allowing you to see their upgrades. They always show the maximum level of upgrades. * "Require Complete" on antennae is now persistent and its state is saved. * Added community contest winner kerbal and unique waypoint names. * Camera can now be pointed at parts, not just vessel center of mass. * Added Plane and Relay vessel types/icons. * Airbrakes now have deployment limits. * Rebalance fairing panel mass downwards slightly. * Difficulty options for limiting part pressure and G-force tolerance. * Difficulty option for kerbal G-force tolerance. Kerbals go unconscious if their tolerance is exceeded. * Slight performance tweaks to some early 1.25m engines. * Swap around some early science parts in the tech tree. * Redid Eve's atmospheric pressure curve to smooth it out and remove errors. Eve's atmosphere thins out much faster now, so the high atmosphere is thinner. Also tweaked Jool's atmosphere so it rapidly goes from 15 atmospheres to 50 in the last few kilometers to achieve crushing pressures. * Can right-click on icons in the staging list to trigger the Part Action Window. * Support Rigid Attachment (non-bendy) option for part joints in cfg and in the PAW. * Added an "Action Groups Always Allowed" advanced difficulty option. * Add 0.625m heat shield. * Lift from capsules and heat shields better handled to make lifting reentries better (easier). * Restructured in-flight pause menu to better show all options. * Don't lock all controls when using Warp To, only some. * Fix terrain vanishing at 1000m depth. * Allow targeting of close vessels by double-clicking. * Angle the canopies of parachutes in symmetry away from each other. * Resource transfer rate when transferring between parts now based on ingame time (taking warp into account) not realtime. * Fix issues with TR-2L stats. * Show tooltips on kerbal portraits. * Fix scientist skill text. * Fix issue with ladders not being re-grab-able if you board a seat, retract a ladder, leave the seat, then extend the ladder. * Update maneuver node patches (for targeting) when the vessel target changes. * The runway lights now follow the day/night cycle. * Moved a low tech wheel to a lower tech tier. * Moved an atmospheric sensor down to the science tech branch. +++Misc Fixes and Changes * Fixed issue where disabled RCS would enable during staging. Mods need to set stagingEnabled=False in their ModuleRCS blocks (unless they want staging on). * Catch exceptions during part loading so the loading process doesn't come to a halt. * Fix some issues with decouple modules, allow specifying the ejection force vector. * Try/catch the other PartModule update loops so one bad module doesn't interrupt others. * Don't try to set constant KSPFields. * Null check when getting resource mass on unloaded vessels with removed resources. * Remove some debug spam when querying Science Subjects by ID. * Fix Resource Display to show all resources correctly. * Improve launch clamp stability on revert. * Fix an issue with ModuleTripLogger not applying to kerbals in non-root parts. * Ablative shields with Ablator tweaked down in the VAB no longer show up pre-scorched in flight. * Ablative shields no longer show solid black when reaching zero ablator. * Fix serious regression with flow multipliers in ModuleEnginesFX. * Fix a wrong rotation in Moment of Intertia calculations. * Correct stock temperature gauges to use gauge threshold. * Fixed currency symbols not displaying properly when UI scale is changed by using inline Text Mesh Pro sprites. * Probe cores now have a hibernate feature which offers only partial control when activated but draws much less electricity. Can be set to automatically hibernate in warp (advanced tweakable). * Added a game setting for default throttle (rather than keeping it in Physics.cfg). * Fix bug where space center view can be messed up on loading a save from the main menu if the game was switched away from during load (old workaround was clear the input locks). * Renamed Science Tech to Scanning Tech since that's what it's for. * Fixed where CoPOffset and CoLOffset had CoMOffset added to them during application. * Fixed where an exception during loading of parts would stop the game loading. * IVA navball works like normal navball (vectors hidden when velocity is too small, radial and normal cues show only in Orbit mode). * Fix an issue where prop requirement met (on engine menus) was not being intuitively correct. See note in Moddability, below, for how to update jet parts. * Fix kerbals sliding on ladders. * For EVA kerbals, 'SAS' light shows whether the kerbal will reorient when a translate key is pressed (as set in Input Settings). T toggles this behavior when in EVA mode. * Several dialogs (such as quicksave) now accept Escape and Enter keys for dismissing or accepting contents. Science reports accept Tab to cycle messages. * Quicksave and Quickload hotkeys (F5/F9) work in KSC view. * The VAB/SPH part search tool now clears when pressing Escape. * Crossfeed toggle module can now require a technology researched to enable itself. Radial decouplers now cannot toggle crossfeed until Fuel Systems. * Fixed loader info in saves to not contaminate a stock save if you load a modded save while playing pure stock. * Can toggle whether navball hides going into map view. * Can now use antenna's Start Transmission action in control groups. * Added ability to register credit for Kerbal experience gains in the MPL * When a Kerbal plants a flag, credit is given to all landed/splashed Kerbals in physics range.

They will no longer jump when an offset is attempted. * Fix vessels/kerbals landed on other vessels teleporting to the ground on load. * Fix issue with a kerbal targeting a vessel and boarding it leading to maneuver node functionality being broken. * Fix wrong vessel being made dominant during docking if the docking is so fast as to skip the acquire phase. * Fix Aero FX being improperly applied to some explosion FX causing square particles and slowdown. * Fix planet orbits sometimes not responding to clicks (or responding when clicked off-orbit). * Empty science containers (or containers with limited capacity) may show experiment count/capacity. * Fix problems with sliding maneuver nodes. * Fix landing legs exploding when landing on Gilly. * Fix handling of mouse interaction with solar escape trajectories (for maneuver node placement). * Fix bad things happening when quickloading while warping. * Fix IVA overlay button not always responding. * Fix offset target markers when more than 200m away. * Tweaks to wheel autoboost to help with wheels. * Increased allowable gizmo offset when holding SHIFT. * Fix bug when transferring fuel from an empty to an empty tank (causing the universe to come unglued). * Added highlighter brightness factor to game settings. * Added settingsload and settingssave commands to debug console. * Added highlighter colors to settings.cfg so they can be edited as well. * Added in flight UI for highlighter setting. * Add Mouselook mapping to settings screen. * Add shielding status to parts. * Add Lights to MPL. * Fix occlusion shielding radius values for Cargo Bays. * Add version stamps to save files for version save created in and version last saved in. * Fix issue with WarpTo orbit jumping. * Add "Always show closest approach for target" markers option. * Fix AppLauncher not having global scale applied. +++Moddability API Docs: https://kerbalspaceprogram.com/api/index.html * Added FlightGlobals.VesselsLoaded and FlightGlobals.VesselsUnloaded which lets us iterate over a specific portion of Vessels without checking the entire list. * Added onVesselPartCountChanged event, fires any time a part is added or removed, the moment it happens, unlike onVesselModified. * Added onVesselStandardModification event, collects various vessel events and fires them off with a single one. (onVesselPartCountChanged, onVesselModified, docked, undocked, et al) * Added onScreenResolutionModified event, fires when the screen resolution is modified. * Added many accessors/setters. * Vessel control level can be clamped to a field in Vessel (so can be restricted to Partial even if otherwise would be Full). * GetModuleMass/Cost methods can now be passed the situation. * Fix where kerbal mass (if set to nonzero) was not applied in the editor. * Added two new dictionary-related classes (DictionaryValueList and ListDictionary). * Celestial bodies now cache all of their PQS Cities. * All game root nodes now generate a random persistent seed, which is different from game to game. * All forces on valid parts except wheel forces are now done via Part.AddForce/Torque/AddForceAtPosition. Note that the forcemode used is Force; to use a different forcemode, convert the force to the correct amount. It is the job of the Flight Integrator to then apply all these forces to actual rigidbodies (rather than all the disparate modules' job). * Use mass-weighted average angular velocity of parts for vessel angular velocity. * ITorqueProvider now reports two Vector3s, positive torque (that produced by control actuation 1,1,1) and negative torque (that produced by -1,-1,-1). * Added various accessors. * Node definitions can take an extra digit after size, either 0 or 1: that sets whether the node can crossfeed. Defaults to 1 (yes). NODE definitions can take crossfeed = True/False * ModuleEngines now supports `clampPropReceived = True`. This will clamp the ratio of propellant requested based on prior results, so if IntakeAir is listed first and less than the full requirement is returned, it will request only that ratio of further propellants. In this case the "Prop Req Met" display will show the minimum requirement-met ratio rather than the average. Engines that use IntakeAir (or other cases like that) need to have `clampPropReceived = True` in each of their MODULEs that do that, and need to have that PROPELLANT first and the other PROPELLANTs later. See stock jet cfgs for examples. * Added another crew transfer event. * Added more startup options for KSPAddon * Allow kerbals to have/save/load arbitrary experience points. * ResearchAndDevelopment.GetTechnologyTitle(string id) will convert a tech ID to a tech title and is available as soon as parts start loading (can be used in GetInfo() ). * Support max pressure (dynamic + static), `maxPressure`, and max G, `gTolerance`, for parts. * Added system to allow mods to add custom difficulty settings. * Added CelestialBody.hasSurface so mods that add a PQSController to gas giant don't cause silly things such as "Plant a flag on Jool" contracts. * Replaced all checks for experience traits (Pilot, Scientist, Engineer) with individual experience effects. They are now loaded before part loading so can be queried in GetInfo(). * Icons in TechTree.cfg can now use a relative path (allows mod icons to live outside the Squad directory). * Added KSPAssemblyDependencyEqualMajor as an attribute. Use instead of KSPAssemblyDependency if you want to force requiring the stated major version, not >= the major version, from your dependency. * If you are setting a vessel's position and/or changing its orbit, call Vessel.IgnoreGForces(framecount) on the vessel for the number of frames that g forces should be ignored (try 1, then 2 if that doesn't work, etc). * ModuleDeployablePart (covers antennas, solars, radiators) also has a gResistance (for Gs) as well as windResistance (for Q). * Crew transfer now derives from a generic abstract PartItemTransfer class. Classes can derive from it to implement any kind of (crew transfer-style) part-part transfer. Also we fire an event right before a crew transfer is created so mods can just kill it and easily create their own CrewTransfer-derived class and have that be called on that event. * Extended ModuleScienceContainer to allow sending and, (from ModuleScienceExperiment) receiving, experiment data. Also added support for a Collect All option to such containers. * ModuleColorChanger supports changing arbitrary shader colors and implements IScalarModule. ModuleAnimationSetter works similarly and is used to more directly link an animation to being set by IScalarModule. * PartModules now support upgrades. In a MODULE node, add an UPGRADE node. Inside that add one node per techID you wish to provide upgrades, in ascending order. Inside that place keys and nodes you wish to upgrade. e.g. `UPGRADES { basicRocketry { maxThrust = 250 } }` will change maxThrust to 250 once basicRocketry unlocks. Upgrades will never override persistent data. Further, by default they overwrite each other; to make a node apply on a clean slate (so you can, say, add two PROPELLANT nodes and not have them conflict due to the overwrite logic) set `IsExclusiveUpgrade__ = True` in the upgrade's node. That will clear the upgrade state and apply that upgrade fresh. Upgrades are applied only when you add a part to a craft in the VAB/SPH, they don't magically apply in flight. When a part on a craft is upgraded, a new option will appear in the PAW (when in VAB/SPH) where you can view the current stats of all those modules with upgrades. * ModuleEngines now supports alternate (RealFuels-style) throttling and rates. * ModuleEngines now supports throttle-Isp interactions. Turn on with useThrottleIspCurve = True and set the throttleIspCurve and throttleIspCurveAtmStrength curves. Final Isp = input Isp * Lerp(1, throttleIspCurve.Eval(throttle state), throttleIspCurveAtmStrength.Eval(atms of pressure)) * Support part upgrades, see docs. * Added events dealing with kerbals going on/off ladders on parts and added a new vessel field for accessing the vessel of the part of the ladder the kerbal is climbing (if all of those are valid). =================================== v1.2.1 ============================================================ +++ Bug Fixes * Fix Maneuver Nodes not showing dV when target changes. * Fix highlighter chewing memory every frame. * Fix CBs being in different places in 1.2 by adjusting GeeASL. * Fix engine glow not originating from engine thrust location. * Fix for non-resettable experiments listing a reset cost. * Fix KSPedia inaccuracy about reentry friction. * Fix for drills shutting down when you approach. * Fix "Mammoth" collider pushing away parts on stage. * Fix for MysteryGoo container having collider too large. * Fix for ModuleRCSFX KSPField. * Fix for contract weights getting messed up in save files. * Fix for Gas bursts on decouplers being in the wrong place. * Fix for EVA orientation on lab hatches. * Removed duplicate "Lowlands" biomes from Mun. * Fix for revert deleting Messages. * Removed writing from Mk3->Mk2 adapter. * Fix for text overflow, etc for flag plaque. * Miscellaneous KSPedia text tweaks. * Fix for Subassembly DropZone tooltip not closing. * Fix for StackGraph not following links across decouplers if one of the decouplers is a root part (Fuel crossfeed issue). * Fix for ladder slide on Mk1 Inline. * Fix for ScientistBonus in ModuleScienceConverter being broken. * Fix loop using wrong iterator in GetModulesImplementingInterface. +++UI Fixes * Fix UI Flickering in Editor when lots of parts loaded. * Fix UI Flickering in MC when lots of Contracts listed. * Fix for Mapnode text not updating when controls locked. * Fix for UIScaling applying incorrectly to the AppLancher and apps. * Fix for asteroid KB Info text wrapping. * Fix for text missing against some Action Menu items for wheel actions. +++Miscellaneous Stuff * Update to Biome Maps for Bop, Gilly and Pol. * Adjust minimum FoV for enhanced mode on Roverbody and NDS to allow more zoom when landed. * Add Reset All Settings option to settings. * Add customizable binding for Editor Scroll Modifier for Zoom - default to left-command for OSX instead of left-shift. * Add new default binding for precision control of "Return" for OSX instead of capslock. * Change default camera reset binding to not clash with Abort Action group. * Change default eva light binding to not clash with translate left. * Allow mods to circumvent contract weight limits =================================== v1.2.2 ============================================================ +++ Bug Fixes * Fix crash to desktop when using Aero Overlay display and Part highlighting in Flight. * Fix one final GUI flickering issue regarding the Parts List Scrollbar. * Fix CommNet occlusion multiplier GUI setting. * Fix to prevent kerbals with existing name being created. * Fix MPL(Science lab) ladder sliding. * Fix Grass textures around Research and Development Facility. * Fix for corrupt save files breaking the resume menu. * Fix where some science experiments only trigger once on action groups. * Fix part action menus remaining on screen when switching to the Astronaut complex. * Fix Building Picker Lines in Space Center not being cleared when application loses focus. * Fix null reference exception when overwriting SubAssemblies in VAB/SPH. * Fix resource converters load percentage display not updating after start/stop. * Fix for several issues with the KSC flagpole outside the Administration Centre. * Fix for vessel on the Launch pad at Baikerbanur (KSC 2) blocking ability to launch vessels from the KSC. * Model fixes to the large drill part. * Fix some more Text overflows in GUI. * Fix where Fairings Disappears After using settings in flight. * Fix for strut connectors attaching below surface on SRB-KD25k. * Fix edge smoothing on Mk1 Inline. * Fix particle effects on drills. * Fix asteroid drill mass calculations. * Fix for selecting/focusing craft that are very late for maneuver nodes. * Fix for contracts app showing the wrong number of contracts. +++Modding Stuff * Add a common base class to all gameevents to allow mods to register and fire their own gameevents. * Add method for searching for gameevents and mods can register to other mods gameevents. * Add title to ResourceInfo so we can have a displayname that's not the key. +++LoadGameDialog When a game is saved it now creates an associated metadata file - called .loadmeta alongside the .sfs. This file contains a hash of the sfs save. When the loadgame dialog opens it will compare the hash in the .loadmeta file with the hash of the savegame, and if so it will use the data in the .loadmeta file for the load dialog details instead of parsing the whole save file. +++Miscellaneous Stuff * Biome refresh for Ike, Moho and Dres. * Add Right-Shift as a default secondary binding for editor scroll when not OSX. * Stop inactive aero/thermal data being shown in the editor scenes. * Add display format to difficulty options values. * Vessels now remember active navigation (Waypoints) when loading save games. * Apply Engineer bonuses to drills and ISRU correctly. * Update more details in DOxygen api docs. The Update is still in development and changes may occur to this list Developing Kerbal Space Program has been and still is an incredible journey where we have faced many challenges and learned a great amount of things throughout the many years it has taken to be where we are right now. As always, we want to extend our immense gratitude to all of you for your understanding and support, we are certain you will enjoy this update of KSP for consoles. We will be giving regular updates regarding the development of these new ports in KSP Weekly. Best regards, -The KSP Dev Team

Just read about the new port coming to consoles and was wondering if people who owned the game currently on console will have free access to the new port.

Ksp is an awesome game. On computer, space is the the limit. But, on console, the gameplay freedom is no enough considerating that we paid full price. Sony and Xbox don't seem to apreciate the fact that we can browse on internet to download mods. Knowing that games like farming simulator 17 on console have an in game mod hub where people download mods, it is certainly possible for ksp.

PS: EDITED TOPIC; FROM "Hey Squad! Do you ever take a look in the Ps4/Xboxone threads? are you hiding from us?" Too something more on Topic again! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well So here it is, I found a temporary Fix for the "Saves Lost/Rollback" problem. Just free up some Space, by Deleting Old SaveGames & "unused" Craft-recepies, from ex. Build menu, Press Load Craft, Then just Delete some Old stuff, also seems that "XL" Ships With more parts, takes up alot more of the memory and that is uses the same memorybank as savegames. So having too many "Crafts" saved up, even if not loaded into game, they use up a huge amount of Memory. Some has already tested this, and seems too work, So, you just need too free up some Space every now and then, Deleting old Crafts. And this might just keep ur progressing thru the game, until it can be pathced In my Final Test, I managed too save a Whole lot of 8 x 300Parts Ships. Yeah! 8. Thats all you need too max out Your savebank ^* Also SaveGames, With alot of flights in them, will also take up some memory. To try not having too many saves at the same time too. Seems they use up the same Space of memory, so one overrides the other, and visaversa. For the latest News about this workaround, check out AndyChilly's Post under. I voter it up, so should be right under this OP! Gl hope this helps. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Also Check Out Best answer Post Under!.! what the heck Squad? all these problems With the broken Console Version (cant save(Xbox)/corrupt saves(ps4)). Could you guys atleast give us a Word or sumthing? Now it seems most in that forum want to get a refund! And wait with the Money in Our own pockets too see if this will be fixed, cuz when you dont even answer our posts, it will problably take some time before its gonna be playable again. This Title should maybe be withdrawn from Xbox Store and Ps4 store. Its a borked release! Wont be long until i ask Xbox why this is still for sale. I do get it that you are in deep excrements atm, but a Word from you would be so Nice!

Playing on: Xbox One Issue: Don't have the full Warp available that exists on PC Details: I am enjoying the my initial forays into the game on Console after having played almost 1000 hours on PC. I am no stranger to glitches and issues with the game. However, as I have been getting further into the game, getting into orbit and the like the lack of being able to go to full Warp to speed up time has become problematic. Apparently there is only the 4X Physic Warp, which is fine in atmo, but when I am trying to get around to the other side of a 300km orbit, that is many real minutes of just sitting. I can't imagine what it will be like waiting to get to the Mun or the outer planets. I am going to assume it is a bug, but if it is not, please consider fixing this in some way, otherwise the game becomes very cumbersome and not very fun. Easy enough to repro, just get into an orbit and try to warp to the other side of your orbit. Thank you.

Okay, so I've started a Sandbox to just mess around, and I to get the modifier Menu to load up, I have to hold LB or RB, but no matter how long I hold them, nothing comes up. Is it just not working or what am I doing wrong? Otherwise I got the rest of the controls, just want to mess around in a Sandbox once in awhile, and I looked around, I couldn't find something addressing this so I assume I'm doing something wrong.

Hey, i have reported this problem in a couple of posts already, but wanted to make a New thread since i think i might have found a problem/solution. Last nite, my game suddenly did a "rollback" after i restarted KSP, it removed/deleted the manual saves called "quicksave #1-10 and even rolled back the persistent file too an earlier hour. Now, i had an idea that it could be something too do With max save files, since my started "bugging" up at save "quicksave 11". At this point it seemed that the persistent file (Autosave) did sometimes save, but the "Quicksave 11" was always gone when i reloaded the game. ------------------------------------------------------------- Well i've now tested more, soo see my post below -DaCana

I'm excited for the release of the game on xbox one that me and 2 other guys had made a ksp xbox one discord for the ksp xbox one community. Here's the link to the chat https://discord.gg/EjPkq
