If it isn't how did he get access to my computer,

[Phineas Freak]

No, but you are using Module Manager.

Probably through MechJeb or ModuleManager.

[Dizzle]

It's an easter egg that comes with ModuleManager, don't worry about it.

[Phineas Freak]

OK, this joke is getting out of hand: there is a mod called Module Manager and it is developed by Sarbian (not Squad!). What you are seeing is an easter egg for the aforementioned Cat Day.

Apparently you have installed a mod that includes MM...

Edit: aaand ninja'ed by almost everyone...

Errrrr ok

It's harmless. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyan_Cat Although we all live in fear of the moment Sarbian decides to do a line of can can dancing Kerbals....

@sarbian doing his best. Every modded KSP install is invaded by nyan cats

We should start a rebellion. Find the code for nyan Cat and replace it with a HAHAHA line going around. All that would need to be replaced is the Picture in the code. Seeing as the that section of th game is 2D a quick patch the change sprite would do the trick.

Real viruses will not put Nyancats over your KSP loading screen; they will silently steal your passwords, mine crypto or crack other passwords, and use your Internet to send out spam emails.

Also, it would not occur with an unmodded install of KSP, because this is Sarbian's stress relief valve, to unleash murders of Nyancats upon the world.

[Starman4308]

It's the Japanese Cat Day, thus the nyancat invasion.

Thanks.  Today I learned.    Subject updated.

Hmmm.... since I usually ignore my loading screens and tab over to something else, I guess I missed this...

Same.

[Wcmille]

I launched the game, and this happened. Can't think of anything I've updated recently. Any ideas?

Multiple over-lapping threads have been merged. 

It's a mod-related prank, guys. 

[Cheif Operations Director]

We must start a rebellion. A bug fix that only changes the sprite of the mod so find the source code and release a mod that replaces the sprite. Hehehe
