Strange. I just downloaded 0.24.2 did the steps above and it worked. The byte offset is different, but the steps above (with the xxd and the grep for Intel) gave me the right spot. You need to change the instance of Intel that looks like "EL.Intel." above.

FYI, I just gave this a try and it seems to work! More specifically, my steps were: 0) make a backup! $ cp KSP.x86_64 KSP.x86_64.bak 1) figure out the byte offset where the particular Intel string shows up: $ cat KSP.x86_64 | xxd | grep "Intel" 0f01f00: 454c 0049 6e66 6f6f 0025 692e 2569 2e25 EL.Intel.%i.%i.% 0f024f0: 2049 6e74 656c 2039 7878 2028 6275 6767 Intel 9xx (bugg That first line is the one you want (as GeneCash points out), figure out what that is: $ printf "%d" 0x0f01f00 15736576 then add a few bytes to get exactly into that "Intel" string, in this case about 5 bytes should do it 2) replace those bytes (thanks to StackOverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4783657/cli-write-byte-at-address-hexedit-modify-binary-from-the-command-line) printf 'foo' | dd of=KSP.x86_64 bs=1 seek=15736581 count=3 conv=notrunc 3) profit! as GeneCash points out, you should see a shadow behind the kerbal on the Mun at startup.

I have the same issue (also Linux KSP).

Telemachus looks great and this looks like a nice set of tools and lib wrapping the Telemachus API. Do you have this code anywhere (e.g. github)? I'd love to start integrating it into things I'm doing and/or collaborate on it. Some ideas I've got are: more of a mission control style view of lots of charts and metrics (e.g. have the Kerbal Maps view plus other charts of fuel, altitude, velocity, dynamic pressure, etc.) logging of data back at "mission control" for download at the end of a mission/session logging of notes with mission time-stamps
