BetterIcons A UI mod for Kerbal Space Program 2 Ever since I started playing KSP2, I've always had trouble with the Parts Picker icons in the VAB. Especially those for fuel/engines/structures/couplers that are next to each other and look the same. I find myself clicking on each icon every time to find what I'm looking for. This mod aims at replacing these icons with new ones that are more easily discernible and understandable. I'm taking this opportunity to make the icons less pixelated because this style doesn't lend itself well to small images to my opinion. Pictures Known Issues Icons are no longer consistent with those of the Parts Manager and other windows. Installation Open the game folder by right-clicking on the game in your Steam library, selecting "Manage," and then clicking "Browse local files." Install the Space Warp + BepinEx plugin (available on CKAN). Install the Patch Manager plugin (available on CKAN). Download the latest version of Better Icons, either on GitHub or on Spacedock. Open the zip file and drag the included BepInEx folder into the game folder (merge folders when asked).

An ISS parts mod for Kerbal Space Program 2 This mod is in pre-release. It does not have all the ISS components yet. This mod seeks to provide ISS and space modeling enthusiasts with all of the station's components (eventually) so that they can recreate its construction in the historical sequence of assembly, or simply utilize them to construct the space station of their dreams. Gallery Zarya Zarya, the original 'grandma' of the ISS, started out as the powerhouse, the brains, and the muscle of the station. But now, after years of hard work, she's basically the space version of an attic, filled with random stuff from the early days of space exploration. Unity Unity is the first U.S.-built component of the ISS, linking the laboratory's Russian Orbital Segment and US Orbital Segment. Unity was launched on 4 December 1998, aboard Space Shuttle Endeavour on STS-88. Zvezda Zvezda provides essential life support systems and offers a cozy home for two lucky kerbonauts. But don't be fooled by its laid-back exterior - Zvezda can be remotely controlled, so if it ever decides to start slacking off, the KSC can give it a virtual kick in the pants. Destiny The Destiny module is the primary operating facility for US research payloads aboard the ISS. This is where science gets a little... spacey. Z1 Truss The Z1 truss is the ISS's master of orientation, the king of control. It’s like the captain of a ship, always making sure everyone is headed in the right direction. With its gyroscopes and plasma pals, it's got the station spinning and twirling like a top, ensuring it's always facing the sun just right. P6 Truss The P6 truss was the second truss segment to be added (after the Z1 truss) because it contains a large Solar Array Wing (SAW) that generated essential electricity for the station. It was delivered by Space Shuttle Endeavour during STS-97. It was the last human spaceflight of the 20th century. Solar Array Wing The ISS Solar Array Wings are so powerful, they could probably light up the entire galaxy if they weren't busy powering the International Space Station to keep the lights on and the coffee brewing. APAS-95 docking port APAS-95 is an androgynous docking system used on the American and Russian modules on the ISS and to allow the Space Shuttle to dock. CBM docking port It's the ISS's secret weapon for connecting habitable modules in the US Orbital Segment. It's like the ultimate "stick-it-to-the-man" (or, in this case, the space station) solution. PMA-1 PMA-1 is basically the space equivalent of a USB adapter, but instead of letting you connect your phone to a laptop, it lets spacecraft connect to the station. Think of it as the ultimate 'space plug-in' for cosmic commuters. Launched with the Unity module in 1998 aboard STS-88. PMA-2/3 This adapter is used on the ISS to convert a CBM interface to an APAS-95 docking port. PMA-2 was launched with the Unity module in 1998 aboard STS-88. It was outfitted special hardware to allow the shuttles to stay docked longer. PMA-3 was launched in 2000 aboard STS-92. Zvezda Solar Panel Meet the solar panel that's seen more sunrises than a rooster. This retractable array is more interested in reminiscing about the glory days than tracking the sun. It's like a retired kerbonaut who's content to bask in the sunlight, occasionally muttering something about 'good old Comrade Sol'. External Active Thermal Control System* The ISS's a busy place, and what happens when all that activity heats things up? The station's radiators come in, space's biggest heat dump! They collect heat and reject it by use of pumped liquid state ammonia in closed-loop circuits to cool the station. * Since KSP2 does not have part heating, this part is just for looks. ISS Technical Docking Port This is a hooking part to weld together two elements where kerbonauts are not intended to pass through, and thus where traditional docking ports should not be used. This component does not exist in the real ISS and have been added for gameplay. Not compatible with other docking ports. Assembly For those daring enough to recreate the ISS's assembly in its historical sequence, this is the suggested procedure. In the absence of Canadarm, the use of tugs is necessary.

For example the CBM, used to connect habitable elements in the US Orbital Segment of the ISS, is a non-androgynous system in reality but has been made androgynous in the game for simplicity. This mod's author did his best to make every space shuttle assembly mission possible by allowing the elements to be stored in the stock mk3 cargo bay. Some elements may however still prove difficult to fit in, such as Destiny (some clipping with the cargo bay) or the P6 truss segment (you will need to tuck the radiators in). Known Issues RCS not included. Parts are not available on the tech tree. Zvezda Solar Panel is not self-tracking. Zvezda Solar Panel deployment in the VAB is too slow. Zarya does not have its own solar panel yet (you can use Zvezda's). No reentry effects. Kerbals located inside Zvezda do not show on the interior view windows.

Thank you!

I released a small mod that adds parts to recreate SpaceX's Starhopper. Links {snip} Installation Extract the contents of the .zip into your KSP2 installation folder. Mod folder will be placed in ..\Kerbal Space Program 2\BepInEx\plugins\ Usage The mod comes with two new parts : the SH-01 "Fuel pot" fuel tank, the LT-SH "Diprotodon" landing leg. Radially attach three LT-SH to the main body SH-01 in the designed spots. Better struts those legs as they may wobble... No central core nor engine included.
