Can I delete player.log file?

[Yamiko Hikari]

My player.log file in AppData\LocalLow\Squad\Kerbal Space Program is about 18 gb. I wonder if I can delete this file without any issues to clear out all that space and continue playing the game normally. I can't even read this file with any text editor cause it's so big so I have no idea what it's for. Also, player-prev.log is about 6 gb so I'd like to delete it as well

18 GB? GB, not MB?

Yeah, gigabytes  I don't know if that's normal but I also got amazed when I noticed that

Wow... that's crazy. Usually the player.log would be created new with every start of the game, and it's size would be below 50 MB (mine right now has 26 MB).

I'd delete it, yes.

Okay, I see. I suspected something like that cause the more I play the game the less free space I have. I will also delete player-prev.log as well then. Thank you!

You're welcome  

Still puzzled, why would that file appended instead of generated new each time? Odd...

The other option: it's actually growing that fast. 

Mind to check that?
