Good day. I started the game on version 1.9.1, but due to the fact that not all mods are adapted for this version, I rolled back the game to version 1.8.1 and now all my satellites are gone, although the rest of the progress has remained the same. Is there any way to load existing saves without losing running satellites?

All this has, I'm sure, been asked and answered, but I want to make sure I have things squared away. I like backups, and backups of my backups. I installed v.1.1 from Steam (since I've had a Steam account for a few years now), then upgraded to 1.1.1, thence to 1.1.2 (which I'm satisfied with, so far, knock wood, and now that I've written that, am thus Kraken-food from here forward). Soooo, what I've gathered from reading some threads here is that there are some steps I ought to take: 1. Immediately uninstall KSP and ensure there are no traces of it in my C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common directory. 2. Run a fresh reinstall and verify local files. Use the Steam install as my working/updateable copy, and drag a shortcut of the KSP _x64.exe onto my desktop if I feel like being antisocial and playing KSP in peace while not having to connect to Steam and interact with my Steam Friends, who are wondering where the hell I've been for the last 2 years or so and frantically asking me to reinstall this or that game and start playing with them again. 3. Make a couple of copies of this virgin install and deposit in places like, say C:/Temp/KSP/KSP Builds and C:/Games/KSP/KSP Builds. Update and/or just add new builds to these locations as they roll out. 4. Keep copies of my save files in like locations. 5. Continue to climb the Mt. Olympus that KSP represents. Do I have all this about right? Thanks for any advice/answers/help/corrections in this.
