How are updates installed?

[Laughing Gravy]

Well, for my very first post, I'm going to ask a very-first-post level question, because I've looked all over and I can't find the answer.

I have KSP 1.0.4 that I bought in the store. I know I can download the latest version from the store, but what I don't know is - do I install this over my existing installation, or create a new installation in a new location?

And if I'm installing in a new location, what do I need to copy over from my previous installation?

Thanks for the help.

(By the way, is it just me, or is this forum software kind of laggy? It seems to miss a lot of my keystrokes.)

Make a fresh install and copy your save files over. This will continue your existing campaigns with the new version of the game. However, some of your craft designs might not work the same way they used to.

Haven't noticed any forum balkiness today, myself.

Thanks, that what I suspected, just wanted to make sure.

Hmm, did someone delete my post in this thread or did it just not go through - i'm pretty sure it posted. As I noted, I have a horrible experience trying to use these forums at work, but I assume that is just due to the limitations of my work computer and their handicapped setup. Works fine for me at home on Chrome, but using IE at work it is nearly impossible to type any replies, I usually write them in notepad then paste them into the forum. Even at that I have to right-click because Ctrl+V doesn't work.

Edit - I see now that it got moved to it's own post. Thanks, mods, I guess, but I was just trying to answer Laughing Gravy's concerns, wasn't really trying to start my own thread about the issue.

Also - My nickname is Gravy, so enjoying your username. Edited November 20, 2015 by Graveworks
