They're completely redoing effects.  We might even get a 1.4.6!

Why stop there? 1.4.10! 1.4.100!!!!

I bet a 1.4.6 will happen.  I’ll check with Vegas for the odds.

Additionally, Steam users will be happy to hear that the team has been working on expanding and improving controller support for the game via the Steam Controller framework. We are trying to close the gap between the mapping found in the consoles’ Cursor Mode and the one currently supported in the PC game. The gap will not be completely closed for now, but it will be an improvement nonetheless. We will provide configurations for DualShock 4, Xbox One, a new configuration for the Steam Controller, and one for HOTAS-like joysticks.

What about GNU/Linux users? How about supporting "HOTAS-like joysticks" on Linux at all?

Steam controllers? Version watermarks? Seriously? This gets work while basic input support is still utterly broken? Your priorities are completely screwed.

Another development news, another week with zero mention of #17984. This is ridiculous.

Obviously Squad need to fix joystick/controller support on Linux, but in the meantime, I'd strongly recommend using this mod: 

It's made joystick support work absolutely perfectly for me, way better than KSP's native support was even before they broke it completely. And you can switch between config/layout presets on the fly!
