The latest Kerbal Space Program update is a little less space, a little more program. Called Economic Boom, update 0.25 further expands on the career mode with a new Administrative building. Because, as we all know, the most exciting part of life at NASA is the paperwork.
The admin facility lets players select Strategies. "The Strategy system is a new gameplay mechanic," explains SQUAD's patch post, "where each strategy, once accepted, applies effects over several game aspects, specifically Kerbal Space Program s three in-game currencies." Examples include "Aggressive Negotiations," which can give players a discount on parts at a cost to reputation.
As well as a new building, all facilities are now destructible. "Buildings can be decimated by poorly-steered rocketships and in the game s Career Mode, require costly repairs for players trying to manage their space agency."
Spaceplanes have also received some love, thanks to the integration of the SpacePlane+ mod.
Head over to the official FAQ for more details of the patch, which is now live in-game.
