What's new in Kerbal Space Program 0.19
Mar 18, 2013
- Linux Support:
- There is now a native Linux version of KSP! Official support for Ubuntu 12.04, but it should work on most distributions.
- Atmospheric Effects:
- Watch your spacecraft flare up as they re-enter the atmosphere, and produce vapor trails during high-speed flight.
- New Kerbal Animations:
- The Kerbals got a massive overhaul on their facial expressions! The new Expressions system uses the new Mecanim animation engine from Unity, giving Kerbals a lot more expressiveness. Watch their faces distort in total panic or gleeful joy, now also when you’re out on EVA.
- Rover Wheels:
- Drive across the surface of other worlds with the new rover wheel parts, which are steerable and self-powered. Construct anything from tiny unmanned rovers, to exploration buggies, to huge mobile contraptions.
- Graphical and Scenery Improvements:
- We’ve got a New Launchpad model at KSC, with 100% less launch tower, a new Runway, and much improved night-time lighting, making for greatly improved visuals, especially at night.
- More New Parts:
- We’ve added several new parts for general construction. Featuring panels, girders, and a lot more!
