This is a list of the default key bindings of the standard game.

Modifier key

Because KSP can run on different operating systems the modifier key (Mod) differs between them. In the table below, the generic “Mod” key is mapped to the following keys:

  • Windows: Alt (e. g. Alt + L)
  • Mac OS: Option (⌥) (e. g. Opt + L)
  • Linux: Right Shift (e. g. Right Shift + L)
  • Macbook Pro: "fn" key (e.g. fn + F5)

As an example, Mod + L locks the current stage. The key combinations in brackets show an example of the respective operating system's key combination: just swap "mod" with your operating system's designated modifier.
