Subdirectories

The directory for each mod (and Squad) has several standard subdirectories. Each one is optional.

Kerbal
  • Agencies. These are the organizations who make parts and supply contracts. Adding agencies here gives adds a brand, spawns contracts from them, and with a little extra work adds a 'by agency' filter in the editors.
  • Experience
  • FX
  • Parts: Contains information for parts.
  • Resources
  • Spaces: IVA views for pod parts.
  • Contracts: Custom contracts
  • Flags: The flags that can go on vessels, can be planted by Kerbals, and represent agencies.
  • PartList
  • Props
  • Sounds
  • Strategies: Configs for the Administration Building

Parts

This article is a stub. You can help KSP Wiki by expanding it.

section

The modules, textures and part configuration files are situated in this subdirectory. Many modders give each part its own directory for all the files it needs. However, different parts can coexist in the same directory.

Saves

In the saves directory all saved sessions are stored. In the directory is a directory for each season named after it. Changing the name won't influence how the entry is named in game. In each session directory are a persistent.sfs and if quicksaves were used quicksave.sfs. The persistent.sfs stores the automatic saves done by the game regularly and prior to exiting the session.

A Hard mode without the ability to save may appear nice in theory, but KSP is still unstable enough (especially with mods) that all progress can be easily lost by a crash and without a backed up persistent.sfs.

Kerbal Space Program Mac Os

Once launched, ship information is stored in the .sfs and does NOT change if the .craft file it came from is updated.

Ships

Kerbal Space Program Free Demo

For each game in the Saves directory, there is a corresponding Ships subdirectory. It contains two directories containing the saved craft for both the VAB and SPH. Craft designs exist independently from saves and changes in the craft files are not represent in the save file without actually launching that changed craft. Otherwise it would mean that any craft already launched would change if the craft in the editor is changed and that would make docking and staging impossible or at least very complicated.

Craft files from another game or downloaded craft files can be moved in the VAB/SPH folder in the destination save. When subassemblies are used, a Subassemblies directory is created for them. Subassemblies can be moved and downloaded in the same way.

Ships

There is also a directory for the stock craft that come with KSP. It is possible to delete or add craft to this directory but removing the directory itself should be avoided as the editors and save menus won't work.

Files in root

These files are in the Kerbal Space Program directory.

  • PartDatabase.cfg: Contains drag cubes for Parts generated by KSP, so it is safe to delete them when issues arise.
  • settings.cfg. Contains game options set in the Settings menu. (Is this safe to delete?)
  • (Where do the parts categories live? Custom categories?)
