Editing Flavor Text


Recommended Posts

Moving to Add-on Discussions, since you'll need a mod to do this.

The planet stats and descriptions, in stock KSP, are a bit of an odd duck.  Unlike all the parts-- which are defined in text config files that are easy to find and read-- the planets store that stuff in binary places that you can't get at.  So you can't directly edit that stuff.

However, you can tweak the in-game behavior via a mod called Kopernicus, along with ModuleManager (which Kopernicus depends on).  If you have those mods installed, you can write your own "patch" config files that Kopernicus will use to edit the planet characteristic that you specify, such as the flavor text.

If you'd like to see an example of a mod that does exactly this (i.e. uses Kopernicus to tweak flavor text and other stats of stock planets), there are various ones out there-- the mod Snarkiverse is one useful example.
