This short list gathers the most importants Addons of Kerbal Space Programm.


Ships Parts

Collection of new ship parts.

  • B9 Aerospace Pack : A parts collection for space planes. Very well designed and realistic than the stock part.
  • KW Rocketry : A parts collection for Rockets. Another excellent designed part collection. More realistic, close to actual rockets.

Realism

Those mods adds realism to the simulation making the gameplay harder than before.

  • RemoteTech (incompatible with 0.23.5) : Your probe won't react anymore when far from Kerbal.
    • You'll have to create a complete network of communication satellites to guide them in deep space.
    • Adds delay (because of light speed limitation) to the control of distant probes, making navigation really harder with distant planets
    • Forgives control of probes when behind planet (in the dark side of the mum for instance)

Navigation tools

  • MechJeb : A complete autopilot tools. Any of them are progressivelly dispatched in the Tech Tree. From :
    • attitude pilots (Prograde, retrograde, node direction, vessel direction and so on)
    • a complete calculator (deltaV) in the edit mode.
    • gives various information for anything in the game (ships, orbit, target, planets.....)
    • Fine tune and execute nodes
    • Auto lander, docker, and lifter.
    • and a futuristic probe

Scientifics Features

Gives scientific points and sometimes more.

  • ScanSat Terrain Mapping : Creates Maps of celestial bodies, detects anomalies (easter eggs), surface slopes and Biomes. The map created from your satellites can be analyzed and then provide science points depending on your map coverage. The detected biomes helps landing your craft on interesting point of each body.
  • Kethane : One of the most incredible addon of Kerbal. Adds a brand new fueling system in the game. Kerthane can be detected and drilled from any planet. It allows then to create fuel bases in moons as start points for long range exploration. It then change the all game rules in an excellent way.

The criteria to be added in this list are simples :

  • It corrects some missing stuff in the main game.
  • There is no major bug...
  • It's fun !

It is then totally subjective. Fell free to adds your favorite addon here. Just remember to add a good description, telling why this addon is important for you, how it is integrated in the game.... and so on
