As long as it is published on Steam, this shouldn't be an issue. Steam on Linux can run most any Windows-only game nowadays due to this new Proton thing. (But yes, I too will be a bit disappointed if it's launched without native Linux support.)

It might not be that clear in the video, but it actually is on legs. It is indeed possible autostruts are to blame, there's a lot of them, because each wheel and landing leg seems to have "Autostrut Locked: heaviest part" on them.

Sure, but this build was a career mode mission with lots of requirements, so at least at one point it had to be a single station. Yes, this is what I suspect also...

Yes, I see this as one of the many curiosities of KSP, it's workaraund-able, so not that much of a big deal, and it makes for entertaining explosions (as long as you've remembered to do a quicksave...) The exploding fairing bug was much worse IMO, but they fixed that pretty quickly. One possible cause to this particular instance could be that I pulled the spring strength of the landing struts to max in the VAB. I did this so that I'd be able to dock the segments regardless of their weight, while having all the docking ports at the same height for quicker builds (I didn't want to have to test-dock each segment). Maybe the lack of flexibility makes the game physics go nuts. One idea would be to make the docking ports separate automatically at a certain level of non-linear abuse. That way the docking ports would separate before something else explodes.

So I have this pretty ambitious ground station on Duna, took lots of launches, skycrane landings, rovering long distances (due to my limited ability to land at target)... well, you get it. Anyway, this is what happens every time I switch to the station... This time, two of the three inhabitants somehow survived. (I've learnt the hard way to quicksave and immediately hit warp when I switch views...) Cheers!

Ubuntu 17.04 (stock unity desktop). Works great.

My first Jool mission finally arrived, now happily landed on Laythe. The beach looks nice, maybe I should send Jeb and Val here for some time off.

35 secs, steam on Ubuntu Linux, mods: KER, KAC, KIS, KAS, xScience. Spinning disk.

Thank you for the warm welcome!

Hello from Finland! Been playing for around three months now, career mode only so far (just unlocked the last node in the tech tree, yay). I've never been much into gaming, but KSP changed all that. Somehow I've managed to put in over 300 hours already. Thanks for a great forum, thought it might be time to sign up! A side note: I bought a new computer for my home office last year, and the best deal with the specs I needed happened to be a gaming computer. When I first opened it up to add some more memory and saw the enormous graphics card, I went "Wow that's a bunch of power completely wasted" since I thought I'd only do 2D stuff like before. Guess if I'm happy about that particular coincidence now! (I play on Linux (Ubuntu, steam), I use KER and KAC, otherwise stock.)
