  1. KSP Directory Junction Creator KSP DJC is a Windows tool (.NET 4.5) for easily creating directory junctions to a common craft file repository. What is a Directory Junction? A Directory Junction is like a link in your operating system's file structure. By accessing the Directory Junction, you are redirected and accessing a folder at an alternate location instead. Why Use Directory Junctions with KSP? In KSP we have craft and subassembly files stored on a per-game basis. That means that only that game can access the files unless you make multiple copies, which gets very messy. With Directory Junctions you can store all your craft in one location and access them from any game at any time. You can create a craft in a sandbox game and immediately load it into your career game without any file manipulation. Can I Create Directory Junctions without this tool? Yes, however it is significantly more difficult as Windows does not have a graphical method of doing this without external tools. It must be done from a command shell, which means a lot of typing. Why Does DJC require an elevated permission? This is required so that DJC can create junctions in protected locations (such as Program Files). If you are security conscious, I completely understand. You may download the source and attempt to compile it yourself if you wish. Beyond that, all I can do is assure you it is not attempting anything malicious. Do I need to keep this on my computer? Nope. It uses Windows functions to create the junction. Once you are done with it, you don't need it unless you create a new game and/or new install that you want to link. Instructions DJC will not delete or overwrite any existing folder structure or existing directory junctions for your protection. Preparation must be done manually. Browse to your KSP installation folder and open the 'saves' subfolder. You will need to open each of the save game folders you wish to junction and remove the 'Subassemblies', 'Ships\VAB' and 'Ships\SPH' folder (do not remove the 'Ships' folder). You may delete them if they contain nothing of value, otherwise it would be best to simply relocate them temporarily. Launch DJC and select the KSP installation folder by clicking the folder icon. DJC will attempt to find this automatically from common locations (Steam and Non-Steam versions) but if you have moved it elsewhere you may have to do this manually. Choose the location you wish to store the craft files. Locations with existing files are permitted, DJC will not destroy them. Click the Link icon next to each of the craft type you wish to junction. At this point DJC will parse through each of the save game files (scenarios and training will be ignored) and create a junction for any missing locations. At any time you create a new game you may repeat the process (only on the new save game) to have immediate access to your craft.
