What is the best version for ksp mods?

Just wondering what version is the best for modding ksp?

Got to be the latest? You have access to the latest api, more things in the game to change, higher .net access and all the experience gained from every previous version. Also if you use other mods as dependencies, they are more likely to be maintained to the latest version than one say 10 versions ago. That’s my opinion anyway.

Hard to tell. The Golden Era was on the 1.2.2 and 1.3.1 times.

Personally, I think 1.7.3 is the best compromise between a rich and relatively recent modded environment and stability (and relativelly low nasty bug count)

Gotta love the overly broad, way too open ended questions.

Are you talking about making a mod?   Do you have any interest in it working with any other existing mods?  There are so many variables you are completely leaving out to get any semblance of useful feedback.

Shockingly, the vast majority of mods run without any major issues in the current version. Even mods that haven't been updated since KSP 1.8. So IMHO the most current version is the best, whether you want to use mods or develop them.
