kerbal konstructs "colonies"


Recommended Posts

i always wanted to make colonies in ksp, and i think kerbal konstructs is the closest thing to colonies, but the problem is, my bases are in EVERY SINGLE SAVE! if possible how do i make it so my bases only appear in the save i made them in?

I don't think you can, you could use MKS

TLDR: copy/paste your existing KSP folder using the operating system.

 

Create an independent installation of KSP for each save. That also allows other customizations such as different mods for each save. You don't actually have to completely reinstall KSP and mods, just find your main KSP folder and copy it to a new folder. Now you magically have a 2nd copy of KSP. You can then go to copy #2 and use Kerbal Konstructs while having no effect on your original KSP install.

I don't know whether you still use Steam to launch KSP. If yes, Steam will continue to launch existing KSP folder #1. To launch copy #2 look for KSP_64.exe in your new folder #2.

If you already use CKAN to install mods it will be pointed at folder #1. There's a CKAN menu item (I forget the name and not at my game PC now) to add the new instance #2 of KSP, and then every time you start CKAN you can pick whether you want to update folder #1 or #2.

P.S. I think CKAN has a clone function to create instance #2 but I've never used that, always did it manually.
