This Page will explain how to install a typical Addon to Kerbal Space Program.

What Are Addons

If you have been playing Kerbal Space Program for any length of time, and have gone on the forums blogs or watched any of the tutorial youtube videos, you have have probably heard of Addons. Addons, mods or plugins are modifications to the official version of the game. They either add new parts, systems and mechanics to the game or replace existing ones. Addons are generally made by the community rather than the developers and can greatly enhance the playing experience. Due to their widespread popularity, Squad offers an official website for exchanging them, the Kerbal SpacePort. Addons are great for people who have been playing the vanilla version of KSP for a while, and are looking for more of a challenge.

To read More About Addons refer to the Addon page.

Vocabulary

IF you are new to KSP or the Addon part of KSP specifically some of the terminology may be confusing

Kerbal Space Port - The Squad supported Library for all KSP Addons.
Vanilla KSP - A KSP game without any Addons. (Basically what you get when you download the game from squad.)

Steps

Step 1 - The weird step

This is step 1, everything about this step is weird, that's why I don't write this so long.

Step 2 - Finish the weird step

This concludes step 1, the weird step. Hopefully, step 2 isn't as weird as step 1 but still a little weird.

Step 3 - This is no weird?!

Exactly, this isn't any weird at all!

Finishing word

Tada! Now you've read a full tutorial. Congratulations!
