KERBAL SPACE PROGRAM PS4 TROPHY DOWNLOAD

If you're sharp-eyed and pan the camera around (hold right mouse button and move the mouse) you may see your booster rocket fall to the ground and explode.Īssuming you triggered the parachute, your capsule and its three happy Kerbonauts will drift down until touching down gently at about 68 meters in altitude (that's the ground level of the Space Center). It will automatically open the rest of the way when you reach 500m above ground level (not sea level). Depending on your altitude, the chute may open fully or only partially. Tap Space a third time to trigger your parachute. You may hear a bang as the explosive bolts fire, and your capsule should move away from the now-empty booster rocket. Tap Space one more time to trigger the next stage, which separates the capsule containing your Kerbonauts from the rocket. If we want to go to space, we'll need a different rocket. Momentum will carry you upwards for a few seconds, but then gravity will take over and your rocket (and the intrepid Kerbonauts inside) will quickly plummet to the ground. This rocket doesn't carry much fuel, and it quickly runs out at an altitude of about 2700 meters. The very first stage releases the rocket from its supporting structure and ignites the rocket engine. The Kerbal 2 rocket is designed with 3 stages. The support structures release and up you go! Every rocket launch happens in stages, and each stage is triggered by tapping the space bar. Hold down Shift to increase the throttle (necessary for liquid-fuel engines like the one on this ship), and then tap the Space bar once. The three spindly towers are not part of the rocket itself they're support structures (often called a gantry) that hold the rocket in place until liftoff. You can right-click each individual part to get more information about it. As you move your mouse over the rocket, each individual part will be highlighted in green. Your three happy Kerbonauts appear in the lower-right corner, ready for launch. If your mouse has a scroll wheel, you can also use it to zoom in and out. Press + and - keys on your numeric keypad to zoom your view in and out. Almost ready to go! Before you do, let's play with some of the basic controls.Ĭlick and hold the right mouse button and move the mouse to move the camera viewpoint. Now you see your stubby little rocket on the launch pad. Later, you'll build your own rockets and they'll appear on this list.Ĭlick the green Launch button near the upper-right corner. The 'Stock' label means it's one of the game's premade rockets. You'll know you've selected the launch pad because it says Launch Pad in the lower-left corner of your screen.Ĭlick once on Kerbal 2 (Stock). We're going to jump right in by launching one of the game's premade rockets.Ĭlick on the launch pad near the upper-right of your screen. Now you get a nice overhead view of the massive Kerbal Space Center complex. This will resume your game from where you left off. The next time you play, you'll choose Resume Saved instead of Start New. (If you wish, you can detour into Settings first and change things like your keyboard bindings-but doing so will complicate this and other tutorials, which assume you're using the default keyboard setup.)

Overmodders (see Plugins) may see loading times of up to thirty minutes, so don't get too trigger happy with that download button until you've completed this tutorial. Depending on your PC, it may take 1–3 minutes for the game to load. That yellow dot you see near the lower-left corner of your screen (underneath the cute sayings such as, 'untangling space tape inventing witty loading hints testing springs,' etc.) is actually the beginning of a long progress bar.

Be prepared Kerbal Space Program (KSP) can take a very long time to load. The very first step is to 'launch' the game, of course. Then you'll send three bold Kerbonauts into orbit, possibly forever.
