I was running KSP2 okay on Steam Deck on initial release, and every patch made it faster. With the For Science! update, it crashes the computer (audio loops for a second, then audio and video turn off, and I have to power down) either while loading the save, or when entering the research screen. I can avoid the R&D crash by staying in Sandbox mode, but even that crashes if you load the wrong thing (trying to exit the VAB), etc.).

For me, it was okay before the update, and might be faster now, BUT, trying to check the R&D tree crashes the Deck, requiring a hard power down.

That might have only been to import the save to the PS5 version of KSP. If you have a PS5, download the PS5 version (free), and you can download it to the PS5 version.
