CONCLUSION

Kerbal Space Program may seem complicated to get into, but that’s not the case. The community is always active when it comes to offering help and answering questions, and our set of tutorials will allow you to gradually explore the various aspects of this game. Wait, you haven’t started the game yet? Not even the free trial version? Come on, hop to it!

To sum it up, what is KSP?

  • A simulator that’s both simplified and rigorous.
  • A construction playground to unleash your imagination.
  • A star system similar to ours where you can operate rockets, rovers, and cruisers.
  • A game with virtually limitless replayability (seriously!).
  • A hands-on way to explore space through direct practice.
  • A community that’s rarely matched when it comes to finding help and sharing.
  • Get your rockets ready! And don’t forget to check out our exercises and mod suggestions below 😉

Exercises Section

This section will allow you to test your knowledge and mastery of the game on the theme developed in this tutorial. These are practical exercises, in a more or less increasing order of difficulty, that we recommend you try to assess if you can achieve your goals: the scenarios are optimized so that success represents the mastery of the exercise at hand! You have the advantage of learning with tested and proven configurations, and the only variable is you, the player: no excuses, and most importantly, no doubt about feasibility – everyone has the same elements at their disposal, so it’s up to you!

There are no exercises for this very first tutorial, as it’s not really a tutorial 🙂 This section will be explored in the next tutorial ^^

Mods


This section introduces you to some mods related directly to the tutorial’s theme. Please note that the game is entirely self-sufficient, and NO mod is considered indispensable. However, the KSP modding community is quite prolific and offers quality additions that might enhance the gameplay for some of you 🙂 Feel free to test them, but make sure to check the mod’s compatibility with your KSP version and create backups whenever possible to avoid compromising your saves! For mod installation, refer to the dedicated article.
