Modding on linux

[Macaw]

With the KSA Linux version slowly coming, will mod support via StarMap and KSAModLoader come soon? or is there a way to do it without them?

this is probably an question that should be directed at users like @KlaasWhite . I cross-posted your post to https://forums.ahwoo.com/threads/starmap-mod-loader.384/#post-3631

I just found this guide to run starmap on Linux:

Tools Post in thread 'Artemis OEM Loader'

Apr 7, 2026

I'm not having much luck getting this to work.

I've got the three mods loaded:

• ModMenu 0.1.2
• KittenExtensions 0.4.0
• Artemis_OEM_Loader 0.1.0

I can see all three mods enabled in settings:

When I start KSA with all three of these loaded I see a new option in the Select System menu:
View attachment 1420
but it's blank.

If i select that and start the game it crashes:

17:21:36 ERROR Unhandled exception System.Exception: No Home Body found in system 'SolLiteArtemis'

If you do get a chance to try it out, i would love to hear how it goes. I do yet need to setup dual-boot so that i can verify my mods on Linux.

That said, i currently see no reason why at least my mods would not work on Linux. I use OS-agnostic paths etc.

I would love it if you could try to get them to run if you get the chance

Gameplay Thread 'Advanced Flight Computer'

Feb 20, 2026

AdvancedFlightComputer adds maneuver planning tools to KSA's Transfer Planner: quick-tools for common orbital maneuvers, flyby targeting that aims a transfer at a chosen periapsis instead of the body center, multi-pass burn splitting for Oberth-efficient departures, RCS-only burn execution, and support for targeting interstellar comets on hyperbolic orbits.

Features

Maneuver Quick-Tools

New plan types in the stock Transfer Planner dropdown:

• Set Periapsis / Set Apoapsis - single burn at the opposite apse to raise or lower one apse to a target altitude...

User Interface Thread '[ARCHIVED] StageInfo'

Apr 19, 2026

StageInfo has been archived.​

As of KSA 2026.7.6.4939, the stock game's reworked Sequence UI now shows per-sequence Delta V, TWR, and fuel bars directly in the in-flight staging window and therefore has the core readouts StageInfo was built to add. With stock now covering the essentials (and more on the way), the mod is retired.

The final release, v0.6.0 (validated against KSA 2026.7.5.4892), stays available and may keep working on later builds, but it will neither be tested nor be updated.

Thanks to everyone who used it

Extra info and flight performance...

Gameplay Thread 'AutoRemoveFinishedBurns'

Apr 30, 2026

Auto-removes finished auto-burns from the burn plan.
In stock KSA, when an auto-burn completes the flight computer flips the burn mode to Manual but leaves the burn entry in the plan, so you have to click Delete manually before the next maneuver can take focus. This mod cleans completed auto-burns up automatically.

Features

• Auto-removes finished auto-burns from the burn plan as soon as the flight computer flips out of Auto mode on completion.
• Out-of-fuel safe: completion is confirmed via the same delta-V vector reversal the stock flight computer uses internally, so a...

Gameplay Thread 'AutoStage'

Apr 12, 2026

AutoStage automatically activates the next sequence whenever active engines run out of propellant, and drops burnt-out boosters while the rest of the stage keeps firing.

Works during auto-burns (continues the burn instead of aborting) and manual burns. Cascades through multiple empty stages if needed.

Toggle via the AUTOSTAGE button on the BurnControl gauge panel.

Features

• AUTOSTAGE toggle on the BurnControl gauge panel.
• Drops spent boosters as soon as they burn out, so a stage that mixes solid boosters with a liquid core does not carry empty casings until the core runs...

StarMap can work on Linux already! This guide I wrote for a mod I made a while ago should still work: https://forums.ahwoo.com/threads/artemis-oem-loader.857/post-4328

The only thing I'd add is that you can now add "GameArguments": ["-fixed-viewport"] to your StarMapConfig.json if you're having issues with the popout windows, like this:

Wouldn't it be better to update it at https://modding.kittenspaceagency.wiki since https://old.ksamodding.wiki is no longer being updated?
