Could you provide your Player.log? If you're not sure where to find it, read the Stock Support & Bug Reporting Guide.

You're running out of memory:

Could not allocate memory: System out of memory!

Memory overview

Install Active Texture Management, or remove Environmental Visual Enhancements.

Also, moved to Support (modded installs) as KSP typically doesn't have memory crashes in unmodded KSP, though it seems to be happening more with Yosemite.

How do i allocate more ram?

[Master Tao]

You don't. 32-bit processes like KSP are limited to about 3.5 GB of RAM. They'll allocate more as needed, but won't work correctly after that limit, so you'll have to fit KSP within that limit, assuming you even have that much available.

Also, don't trust the Activity Monitor report of how much RAM you're using.

Also, don't trust the Activity Monitor report of how much RAM you're using.

How're we meant to know then?

[Master Tao]

I don't know. It may be possible to get accurate memory usage stats from ps (process status utility), but I haven't had a chance to properly test it.
