It was never very easy to create planets in KSP - it often required decompiling, which is against the EULA. After a long time looking, a mod called Kopernicus was released and found, making it easy to make planets.
Contents
Specifications
- Length: 15-30 minutes
- Difficulty: Medium
- For version: 1.0.x
Steps
1. Obtaining the prequisites
You will need:
- A text editor
- An image editor
- Kopernicus 0.1
Many developers prefer text editors like Notepad++, a rather advanced program. Image editors usually are advanced, but even Paint would work. To download Kopernicus 0.1, search the forums or Google for it. If you go to a page with Kopernicus 0.0.9, there should be a little piece of text and a link to the newest version.
2. Setting up the basic file
Create a file, and name it: PLANET.cfg Change PLANET to your planet or moon's name. Inside the file, write this in:
@Kopernicus:AFTER[Kopernicus] { Body { } }
This declares that the file is a Kopernicus configuration file and a celestial body.
Done!
At the moment, coding in Kopernicus is not completed, due to the enormity of the subject. It will be done soon.
