The reference plane is selectable: **Ecliptic** (matches `Orbit.Inclination`, KSA's system-wide inertial Z) or **Equatorial** (parent body's equator, standard astrodynamics convention). For Earth the two differ by the ~23.4 degree obliquity.\n\nRight-click the controlled vehicle's orbit and open **Advanced Flight Computer** to select a quick-tool.\nThe **At Periapsis** submenu offers **AFC: Set Apoapsis...**, and **At Apoapsis** offers **AFC: Set Periapsis...**.\nThese shortcuts open the planner and they do not place a burn at the clicked point.\n\nQuick-tools can plan a single burn after the last planned burn that changes the trajectory.\nFor example, plan a burn to raise apoapsis, then use **Set Periapsis** on the resulting orbit.\nThe preview and created node use that post-burn trajectory.\nMulti-pass cannot start on a pending burn's trajectory.\nShortcuts wait until a stock transfer calculation or active multi-pass execution has finished.\n\n### Flyby Targeting\n\nThe stock planner aims every transfer at the target body's center, so a well-timed Hohmann arrives as an impact and the flyby has to be set up afterwards as a separate correction. Tick **Target flyby periapsis** in the Transfer Planning window and the departure burn is aimed to arrive at a periapsis you choose instead, so **Create** fires the flyby directly.\n\n- **Periapsis** is entered against a selectable reference: **Surface** (altitude above the mean radius), **Center** (radius straight from the body center), or **Atmosphere** (altitude above the atmosphere boundary). The Atmosphere option only appears for bodies that have one, and a request below the safe floor is refused.\n- **Flyby side** picks which side of the body you pass, named in the target's own orbital frame: **Inner** (toward its parent), **Outer** (away from it), **North**, or **South**. The aim offset has to stay perpendicular to the approach, so a side whose axis lies along the approach direction cannot be reached and is greyed out.\n- Works for moon flybys and for interplanetary targets, either as a single burn or split across multi-pass passes.\n- The section reports the approach speed, the impact parameter, the departure delta-V next to the impact-aimed one, and the periapsis the propagated trajectory actually reaches. While a flyby is armed the preview shows that retargeted trajectory in place of stock's center-aimed one.\n- For multiple passes, the readout uses the selected departure after any schedule shift and the periapsis from the final preview trajectory.\n- If propagation cannot confirm a periapsis, the readout shows **No prediction** and its reason, such as a departure time outside the flight plan or no resolved target encounter.\n\n**Limitations:**\n- The plan is impulsive, the burn is not. On a near-escape departure the periapsis actually flown drifts from the requested one by roughly the finite-burn loss, on the order of one percent of a multi-km/s injection. Trim it with a small correction burn, or split the departure across several passes to cut the loss.\n\n### Multi-Pass Burns\n\n![LEO to Luna multi-pass transfer](ksa-image:multi-pass)\n\nAny of the above plan types (including stock Hohmann and circularize Apse transfers) can be split into multiple burns across successive orbits.\nInstead of one long burn that sweeps a large arc away from periapsis, the engine fires in shorter bursts near periapsis on each orbit, reducing finite-burn loss.\n\n**Supported plan types that can be split:**\n- Hohmann transfers\n- Set Periapsis / Set Apoapsis\n- Match Inclination / Set Inclination\n- Circularize Apoapsis / Periapsis\n\n**How to use:**\n1. Select a plan type and configure the maneuver as usual.\n2. Use the **PASSES** slider to choose how many passes (2-10).\n3. Click **Create**. The first pass burn is placed in the burn plan.\n4. Enable **Auto** burn mode. Each pass fires automatically, with the main engine or as an RCS burn, and the next pass is scheduled after completion.\n5. The plan window shows \"Multi-pass active: pass X of N\" with remaining pass details and a **Cancel remaining passes** button.\n\n**Why it helps:**\nWhen burn duration is a significant fraction of the orbital period, a single burn wastes fuel by thrusting far from periapsis. Splitting across N passes keeps each burn near periapsis where the Oberth effect is strongest.\nReal lunar kick stages use the same technique, several perigee burns instead of one long injection. It helps most for low-TWR spacecraft such as ion engines, small kick stages and nuclear tugs, where a single departure burn can take tens of minutes.\n\n**Hands-free execution:**\nMulti-pass works best with the built-in automatic staging switched on (handles staging between passes) and the built-in automatic burn removal left on (cleans up completed burns). A multi-pass execution then runs hands-free from first ignition to final departure.\n\n**Limitations:**\n- Same-parent transfers (e.g., LEO to Luna) shift the final burn forward by a few parking periods to fit the K-schedule. The shift is shown in the plan window.\n- A change to the flyby side or altitude updates the selected departure even during thrust.\n- Very high-energy departures from small SOIs (e.g., low Mars orbit to Saturn) may auto-clamp to fewer passes because intermediate orbits would escape the SOI.\n\n### RCS Translation Burns\n\n![RCS burn options in the burn editor](ksa-image:rcs-burn-panel)\n\nExecute a planned burn with RCS thrusters only, no main engine. Useful for small correction burns (rotating the whole vehicle for the main engine can cost more than just translating) and for vehicles without an active main engine like small probes.\n\n- The stock **Auto** burn button is still the single trigger: it executes the next burn with its resolved method. A burn resolves to the main engine when an active, fueled engine exists, otherwise to RCS; a per-burn override is available in the burn editor window (\"Execution: Default | Engine | RCS\").\n- Two attitude strategies, selectable per burn: **Hold** (keep the current attitude, fire the axis mix that points at the burn vector) and **Align** (rotate the strongest thruster axis onto the burn vector first). **Auto** (default) compares propellant estimates for both, including the slew cost, and picks the cheaper one.\n- Execution is closed-loop against the game's own delta-V accounting: pulses shrink as the remaining delta-V approaches zero, and the burn stops inside the thrusters' minimum impulse of the target. The engine autopilot is suppressed for the whole run, so a misclick can never ignite the main engine on an RCS-armed burn.\n- Burns themselves stay in the stock save format; removing the mod keeps every planned burn. The RCS arming metadata lives in `mods/AdvancedFlightComputer/rcs-exec.toml` next to the mod and survives save/load, including mid-burn.\n- The burn editor warns when a burn resolves to RCS but no thruster can translate (no propellant, none active) and when the estimated propellant exceeds what the thrusters can actually reach. Auto also shows an alert and refuses the burn before it creates execution state or changes the controls when the burn has no delta-V, no usable translation, or no axis that can serve its direction.\n- Estimates for a later planned burn use the current vehicle as an approximation and show **Estimate basis: Current vehicle** in the burn editor or **Current vehicle** in the gauge. Stock only loads the first executable burn as its active burn target, so these estimates do not forecast earlier burns or staging.\n- Completed RCS burns raise a public event (`RcsBurnCompletions.Completed`) other mods can consume; the built-in automatic burn removal uses it to clean up finished RCS burns the same way it cleans up engine auto-burns.\n- The **allocator** is selectable per burn (default **Groups**). Groups fires signed-axis groups and uses attitude control to counter residual torque. **LP** solves a fuel-optimal jet-selection problem over individual thruster forces and torques (the Bergmann/Draper formulation). LP can require costly counter-thrust, so it is opt-in, and it falls back to Groups when the constraints are infeasible.\n\n### Automatic Staging\n\n**Stock**\n\n![Stock engine gauge panel](ksa-image:autostage-stock)\n\n**With AdvancedFlightComputer**\n\n![Engine gauge panel with AUTOSTAGE toggle](ksa-image:autostage-button)\n\nActivates the next sequence whenever the 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. Formerly the separate AutoStage mod; remove that mod when you install this version, because two stagers on one burnout would activate two sequences. The settings written by AutoStage are imported on the first load.\n\n- **AUTOSTAGE toggle button** on the EngineControl gauge panel, in the free slot under RCS. The switch belongs to the vehicle, so an armed craft keeps staging when you control another one. The same switch is available on the Mods settings page for installs without KittenExtensions.\n- **Control-module guard** - a sequence that would separate the last control module is never staged automatically; stage it by hand if that is what you want.\n- **Auto-burn continuation** - keeps the burn mode at Auto through staging so planned burns do not abort.\n- **Cascade staging** - stages again if the next stage is empty or only has decouplers.\n- **Spent stage drop** - sheds burnt-out boosters as soon as they quit, without waiting for the core stage to run dry.\n- **Configurable staging delays** - independent delays for decouplers and engines, simulating separation and engine spool-up time.\n- **On-screen countdowns** - \"Decouple in X.Xs\" and \"Ignition in X.Xs\" alerts during a delayed stage.\n\n**Spent stage drop.** When solid boosters burn out before a liquid core, a trigger that waits for every engine to go dry would carry the empty casings along as dead mass. The mod therefore also stages when the next sequence would jettison nothing but burnt-out hardware: the sequence activates no engine, every active engine it separates is spent, an engine that stays with the vehicle is still firing, and nothing it separates is an engine that has never been activated. It refuses when the separated parts still hold propellant a retained engine can draw from, or when an enabled fuel link crosses the separation, so crossfeed setups are not cut off mid-burn. Turn it off with \"Drop spent stages early\" on the Mods settings page if staging should wait for a full burnout.\n\n**Solid motors in the staging readout.** The game's staging model gives a solid motor the burn time of a full grain on every refresh, so a nearly spent booster is shown as a trickle that outlasts the core. The mod paces the motor at the mean flow of the burn it has left, read off its thrust curve, so the in-flight staging window and the guidance stage list end the booster phase where the boosters do.\n\n**Staging delays.** Two delays are configurable per part variant, both measured from the staging trigger: the engine ignition delay (default values per stock engine variant, the small EngineA1 ignites after 2 s, EngineA3 after 3 s) and the decoupler delay (default 0 s, which matches stock). Set the decoupler delay shorter than the engine delay if the lower stage should drop away before the upper stage lights up.\n\n- **Settings window (Settings > Mods > AUTOSTAGE):** the two switches, then the \"Engine Ignition Delays\" and \"Decoupler Delays\" tables listing every known part variant. Every setting takes effect immediately; click SAVE to persist it.\n- **Part window (right-click part > Window):** override the delay for a specific sequence on the current vehicle. A part gets one block per sequence it fires something in, each naming the module it covers. Per-vehicle overrides take priority over the global config.\n\nThe global config is `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\autostage.toml`:\n\n```toml\n[staging]\ndrop_spent_stages = true\n\n[engine_delays]\nCorePropulsionA_Prefab_EngineA2 = 2.0\nCorePropulsionA_Prefab_EngineA3 = 5.0\n\n[decoupler_delays]\nCoreFairingA_Prefab_Interstage3W3HB = 1.0\n```\n\nPer-vehicle sequence overrides are stored next to it in `autostage-vehicles\\.toml`, created automatically when you set an override in the part window, with separate `[sequence_delays]` (engines) and `[decoupler_delays]` sections. Nothing is written to a game save.\n\n### Automatic Burn Removal\n\nIn 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\" before the next maneuver can take focus. This feature cleans up completed burns automatically. Formerly the separate AutoRemoveFinishedBurns mod; remove that mod when you install this version. Its saved switch is imported on the first load.\n\n- **Auto-burns** are removed as soon as the flight computer flips out of Auto mode on completion. Completion is confirmed through the same delta-V vector reversal the stock flight computer uses, so a burn that flamed out before reaching its target stays in the plan and can be resumed after staging.\n- **RCS burns** executed by this mod are removed on their completion event.\n- **Manual burns are never touched**, and only the vehicle you control is watched. A burn that finishes on a background vehicle stays in its plan.\n- **Switch** on the Mods settings page, on by default, persisted in `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\autoremove.toml`.\n\n### Hyperbolic Targets\n\nThe stock Transfer Planner filters out bodies with eccentricity >= 1. This mod lets it target interstellar comets (Oumuamua, 2I/Borisov, 3I/ATLAS) by patching the planner's time-of-flight and alignment math to handle unbound orbits.\n\n### Powered Guidance\n\n[![Watch the PoweredGuidance demo](ksa-image:twin-boosters)](https://youtu.be/hSUcV6tx3oY)\n\nClosed-loop guidance that flies the vehicle for you, originally the [PoweredGuidance](https://github.com/cairn5/PoweredGuidance) mod by cairn5, see Credits.\nOpen the **AFC Guidance** menu in the top bar, switch **Enabled** on and open the panel with **Show panel**. EXECUTE, ABORT and RETARGET act on the selected tab.\n\n- **Ascent** flies UPFG, the Space Shuttle's ascent guidance, to a target periapsis, apoapsis, inclination and LAN, optionally holding the argument of periapsis too and otherwise inserting wherever the burn costs least dV, with an optional launch window, g-limit and booster reserve. Launching to a target vehicle flies a co-elliptic chase orbit below it. Staging goes through automatic staging, and a stage that separates with a command pod can get its own landing site.\n- **Boostback** flies a separated booster back toward its landing site with a settling burn, a flip, the boostback burn and an entry attitude, against an impact prediction through the atmosphere.\n- **Deorbit and land** flies the whole chain from orbit: the deorbit burn, a fuel-optimal powered descent with G-FOLD or the 6-DOF solver, and a terminal hover to touchdown.\n- **Land from here** starts only the powered descent and the hover, from where the craft is now.\n\nGuidance takes a craft only when you press EXECUTE, and it lets go when you abort, take over the attitude or arm the stock Auto burn.\nAn abort during the powered descent or the terminal hover leaves the engine as it is, so the craft does not drop, while every other abort cuts the engine.\nThe hover refuses a craft whose thrust at minimum throttle exceeds its weight, because such a craft climbs whenever the engine runs, and a G-FOLD or 6-DOF descent that would hand over to it flies its own plan to touchdown instead.\nG-FOLD suits airless bodies and agile landers that point with RCS. The 6-DOF solver models the vehicle rotation, so it handles boosters with high rotational inertia and descents through an atmosphere.\nThe native solvers `clarabel_c.dll` and `scs.dll` ship with the mod. See the [guidance documentation](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer/blob/main/docs/guidance/README.md) for how it works.\n\n## Installation\n\n1. Install [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap) and [KittenExtensions](https://github.com/tsholmes/KittenExtensions) (the latter is only required for hyperbolic targets and the AUTOSTAGE gauge button).\n2. Download the latest release from the [Releases](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer/releases) tab.\n3. Extract into `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\`.\n4. The game auto-discovers new mods and prompts you to enable them. Alternatively, add to `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\manifest.toml`:\n\n```toml\n[[mods]]\nid = \"AdvancedFlightComputer\"\nenabled = true\n```\n\n## Dependencies\n\n- [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap): Mod loader, required at runtime (see Installation). Tested version 0.4.6.\n- [KittenExtensions](https://github.com/tsholmes/KittenExtensions): Optional, required at runtime for the hyperbolic-targets and AUTOSTAGE button XML patches. Tested version v0.4.0.\n\n## Build dependencies\n\nRequired only to build the mod from source. Targets **.NET 10**.\n\n- [StarMap.API](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap) from NuGet, tested version 0.3.6.\n- [Lib.Harmony](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Lib.Harmony) from NuGet, tested version 2.4.2.\n\nThe native guidance solvers are built from the vendored sources with Rust and Zig, see [native-build.md](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer/blob/main/docs/guidance/native-build.md).\n\n## Mod compatibility\n\n- [AutoStage](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AutoStage), [AutoRemoveFinishedBurns](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AutoRemoveFinishedBurns) and [PoweredGuidance](https://github.com/cairn5/PoweredGuidance) are now part of this mod.

The reference plane is selectable: **Ecliptic** (matches `Orbit.Inclination`, KSA's system-wide inertial Z) or **Equatorial** (parent body's equator, standard astrodynamics convention). For Earth the two differ by the ~23.4 degree obliquity.\n\nRight-click the controlled vehicle's orbit and open **Advanced Flight Computer** to select a quick-tool.\nThe **At Periapsis** submenu offers **AFC: Set Apoapsis...**, and **At Apoapsis** offers **AFC: Set Periapsis...**.\nThese shortcuts open the planner and they do not place a burn at the clicked point.\n\nQuick-tools can plan a single burn after the last planned burn that changes the trajectory.\nFor example, plan a burn to raise apoapsis, then use **Set Periapsis** on the resulting orbit.\nThe preview and created node use that post-burn trajectory.\nMulti-pass cannot start on a pending burn's trajectory.\nShortcuts wait until a stock transfer calculation or active multi-pass execution has finished.\n\n### Flyby Targeting\n\nThe stock planner aims every transfer at the target body's center, so a well-timed Hohmann arrives as an impact and the flyby has to be set up afterwards as a separate correction. Tick **Target flyby periapsis** in the Transfer Planning window and the departure burn is aimed to arrive at a periapsis you choose instead, so **Create** fires the flyby directly.\n\n- **Periapsis** is entered against a selectable reference: **Surface** (altitude above the mean radius), **Center** (radius straight from the body center), or **Atmosphere** (altitude above the atmosphere boundary). The Atmosphere option only appears for bodies that have one, and a request below the safe floor is refused.\n- **Flyby side** picks which side of the body you pass, named in the target's own orbital frame: **Inner** (toward its parent), **Outer** (away from it), **North**, or **South**. The aim offset has to stay perpendicular to the approach, so a side whose axis lies along the approach direction cannot be reached and is greyed out.\n- Works for moon flybys and for interplanetary targets, either as a single burn or split across multi-pass passes.\n- The section reports the approach speed, the impact parameter, the departure delta-V next to the impact-aimed one, and the periapsis the propagated trajectory actually reaches. While a flyby is armed the preview shows that retargeted trajectory in place of stock's center-aimed one.\n- For multiple passes, the readout uses the selected departure after any schedule shift and the periapsis from the final preview trajectory.\n- If propagation cannot confirm a periapsis, the readout shows **No prediction** and its reason, such as a departure time outside the flight plan or no resolved target encounter.\n\n**Limitations:**\n- The plan is impulsive, the burn is not. On a near-escape departure the periapsis actually flown drifts from the requested one by roughly the finite-burn loss, on the order of one percent of a multi-km/s injection. Trim it with a small correction burn, or split the departure across several passes to cut the loss.\n\n### Multi-Pass Burns\n\n![LEO to Luna multi-pass transfer](ksa-image:multi-pass)\n\nAny of the above plan types (including stock Hohmann and circularize Apse transfers) can be split into multiple burns across successive orbits.\nInstead of one long burn that sweeps a large arc away from periapsis, the engine fires in shorter bursts near periapsis on each orbit, reducing finite-burn loss.\n\n**Supported plan types that can be split:**\n- Hohmann transfers\n- Set Periapsis / Set Apoapsis\n- Match Inclination / Set Inclination\n- Circularize Apoapsis / Periapsis\n\n**How to use:**\n1. Select a plan type and configure the maneuver as usual.\n2. Use the **PASSES** slider to choose how many passes (2-10).\n3. Click **Create**. The first pass burn is placed in the burn plan.\n4. Enable **Auto** burn mode. Each pass fires automatically, with the main engine or as an RCS burn, and the next pass is scheduled after completion.\n5. The plan window shows \"Multi-pass active: pass X of N\" with remaining pass details and a **Cancel remaining passes** button.\n\n**Why it helps:**\nWhen burn duration is a significant fraction of the orbital period, a single burn wastes fuel by thrusting far from periapsis. Splitting across N passes keeps each burn near periapsis where the Oberth effect is strongest.\nReal lunar kick stages use the same technique, several perigee burns instead of one long injection. It helps most for low-TWR spacecraft such as ion engines, small kick stages and nuclear tugs, where a single departure burn can take tens of minutes.\n\n**Hands-free execution:**\nMulti-pass works best with the built-in automatic staging switched on (handles staging between passes) and the built-in automatic burn removal left on (cleans up completed burns). A multi-pass execution then runs hands-free from first ignition to final departure.\n\n**Limitations:**\n- Same-parent transfers (e.g., LEO to Luna) shift the final burn forward by a few parking periods to fit the K-schedule. The shift is shown in the plan window.\n- A change to the flyby side or altitude updates the selected departure even during thrust.\n- Very high-energy departures from small SOIs (e.g., low Mars orbit to Saturn) may auto-clamp to fewer passes because intermediate orbits would escape the SOI.\n\n### RCS Translation Burns\n\n![RCS burn options in the burn editor](ksa-image:rcs-burn-panel)\n\nExecute a planned burn with RCS thrusters only, no main engine. Useful for small correction burns (rotating the whole vehicle for the main engine can cost more than just translating) and for vehicles without an active main engine like small probes.\n\n- The stock **Auto** burn button is still the single trigger: it executes the next burn with its resolved method. A burn resolves to the main engine when an active, fueled engine exists, otherwise to RCS; a per-burn override is available in the burn editor window (\"Execution: Default | Engine | RCS\").\n- Two attitude strategies, selectable per burn: **Hold** (keep the current attitude, fire the axis mix that points at the burn vector) and **Align** (rotate the strongest thruster axis onto the burn vector first). **Auto** (default) compares propellant estimates for both, including the slew cost, and picks the cheaper one.\n- Execution is closed-loop against the game's own delta-V accounting: pulses shrink as the remaining delta-V approaches zero, and the burn stops inside the thrusters' minimum impulse of the target. The engine autopilot is suppressed for the whole run, so a misclick can never ignite the main engine on an RCS-armed burn.\n- Burns themselves stay in the stock save format; removing the mod keeps every planned burn. The RCS arming metadata lives in `mods/AdvancedFlightComputer/rcs-exec.toml` next to the mod and survives save/load, including mid-burn.\n- The burn editor warns when a burn resolves to RCS but no thruster can translate (no propellant, none active) and when the estimated propellant exceeds what the thrusters can actually reach. Auto also shows an alert and refuses the burn before it creates execution state or changes the controls when the burn has no delta-V, no usable translation, or no axis that can serve its direction.\n- Estimates for a later planned burn use the current vehicle as an approximation and show **Estimate basis: Current vehicle** in the burn editor or **Current vehicle** in the gauge. Stock only loads the first executable burn as its active burn target, so these estimates do not forecast earlier burns or staging.\n- Completed RCS burns raise a public event (`RcsBurnCompletions.Completed`) other mods can consume; the built-in automatic burn removal uses it to clean up finished RCS burns the same way it cleans up engine auto-burns.\n- The **allocator** is selectable per burn (default **Groups**). Groups fires signed-axis groups and uses attitude control to counter residual torque. **LP** solves a fuel-optimal jet-selection problem over individual thruster forces and torques (the Bergmann/Draper formulation). LP can require costly counter-thrust, so it is opt-in, and it falls back to Groups when the constraints are infeasible.\n\n### Automatic Staging\n\n**Stock**\n\n![Stock engine gauge panel](ksa-image:autostage-stock)\n\n**With AdvancedFlightComputer**\n\n![Engine gauge panel with AUTOSTAGE toggle](ksa-image:autostage-button)\n\nActivates the next sequence whenever the 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. Formerly the separate AutoStage mod; remove that mod when you install this version, because two stagers on one burnout would activate two sequences. The settings written by AutoStage are imported on the first load.\n\n- **AUTOSTAGE toggle button** on the EngineControl gauge panel, in the free slot under RCS. The switch belongs to the vehicle, so an armed craft keeps staging when you control another one. The same switch is available on the Mods settings page for installs without KittenExtensions.\n- **Control-module guard** - a sequence that would separate the last control module is never staged automatically; stage it by hand if that is what you want.\n- **Auto-burn continuation** - keeps the burn mode at Auto through staging so planned burns do not abort.\n- **Cascade staging** - stages again if the next stage is empty or only has decouplers.\n- **Spent stage drop** - sheds burnt-out boosters as soon as they quit, without waiting for the core stage to run dry.\n- **Configurable staging delays** - independent delays for decouplers and engines, simulating separation and engine spool-up time.\n- **On-screen countdowns** - \"Decouple in X.Xs\" and \"Ignition in X.Xs\" alerts during a delayed stage.\n\n**Spent stage drop.** When solid boosters burn out before a liquid core, a trigger that waits for every engine to go dry would carry the empty casings along as dead mass. The mod therefore also stages when the next sequence would jettison nothing but burnt-out hardware: the sequence activates no engine, every active engine it separates is spent, an engine that stays with the vehicle is still firing, and nothing it separates is an engine that has never been activated. It refuses when the separated parts still hold propellant a retained engine can draw from, or when an enabled fuel link crosses the separation, so crossfeed setups are not cut off mid-burn. Turn it off with \"Drop spent stages early\" on the Mods settings page if staging should wait for a full burnout.\n\n**Solid motors in the staging readout.** The game's staging model gives a solid motor the burn time of a full grain on every refresh, so a nearly spent booster is shown as a trickle that outlasts the core. The mod paces the motor at the mean flow of the burn it has left, read off its thrust curve, so the in-flight staging window and the guidance stage list end the booster phase where the boosters do.\n\n**Staging delays.** Two delays are configurable per part variant, both measured from the staging trigger: the engine ignition delay (default values per stock engine variant, the small EngineA1 ignites after 2 s, EngineA3 after 3 s) and the decoupler delay (default 0 s, which matches stock). Set the decoupler delay shorter than the engine delay if the lower stage should drop away before the upper stage lights up.\n\n- **Settings window (Settings > Mods > AUTOSTAGE):** the two switches, then the \"Engine Ignition Delays\" and \"Decoupler Delays\" tables listing every known part variant. Every setting takes effect immediately; click SAVE to persist it.\n- **Part window (right-click part > Window):** override the delay for a specific sequence on the current vehicle. A part gets one block per sequence it fires something in, each naming the module it covers. Per-vehicle overrides take priority over the global config.\n\nThe global config is `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\autostage.toml`:\n\n```toml\n[staging]\ndrop_spent_stages = true\n\n[engine_delays]\nCorePropulsionA_Prefab_EngineA2 = 2.0\nCorePropulsionA_Prefab_EngineA3 = 5.0\n\n[decoupler_delays]\nCoreFairingA_Prefab_Interstage3W3HB = 1.0\n```\n\nPer-vehicle sequence overrides are stored next to it in `autostage-vehicles\\.toml`, created automatically when you set an override in the part window, with separate `[sequence_delays]` (engines) and `[decoupler_delays]` sections. Nothing is written to a game save.\n\n### Automatic Burn Removal\n\nIn 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\" before the next maneuver can take focus. This feature cleans up completed burns automatically. Formerly the separate AutoRemoveFinishedBurns mod; remove that mod when you install this version. Its saved switch is imported on the first load.\n\n- **Auto-burns** are removed as soon as the flight computer flips out of Auto mode on completion. Completion is confirmed through the same delta-V vector reversal the stock flight computer uses, so a burn that flamed out before reaching its target stays in the plan and can be resumed after staging.\n- **RCS burns** executed by this mod are removed on their completion event.\n- **Manual burns are never touched**, and only the vehicle you control is watched. A burn that finishes on a background vehicle stays in its plan.\n- **Switch** on the Mods settings page, on by default, persisted in `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\autoremove.toml`.\n\n### Hyperbolic Targets\n\nThe stock Transfer Planner filters out bodies with eccentricity >= 1. This mod lets it target interstellar comets (Oumuamua, 2I/Borisov, 3I/ATLAS) by patching the planner's time-of-flight and alignment math to handle unbound orbits.\n\n### Powered Guidance\n\n[![Watch the PoweredGuidance demo](ksa-image:twin-boosters)](https://youtu.be/hSUcV6tx3oY)\n\nClosed-loop guidance that flies the vehicle for you, originally the [PoweredGuidance](https://github.com/cairn5/PoweredGuidance) mod by cairn5, see Credits.\nOpen the **AFC Guidance** menu in the top bar, switch **Enabled** on and open the panel with **Show panel**. EXECUTE, ABORT and RETARGET act on the selected tab.\n\n- **Ascent** flies UPFG, the Space Shuttle's ascent guidance, to a target periapsis, apoapsis, inclination and LAN, optionally holding the argument of periapsis too and otherwise inserting wherever the burn costs least dV, with an optional launch window, g-limit and booster reserve. Launching to a target vehicle flies a co-elliptic chase orbit below it. Staging goes through automatic staging, and a stage that separates with a command pod can get its own landing site.\n- **Boostback** flies a separated booster back toward its landing site with a settling burn, a flip, the boostback burn and an entry attitude, against an impact prediction through the atmosphere.\n- **Deorbit and land** flies the whole chain from orbit: the deorbit burn, a fuel-optimal powered descent with G-FOLD or the 6-DOF solver, and a terminal hover to touchdown.\n- **Land from here** starts only the powered descent and the hover, from where the craft is now.\n\nGuidance takes a craft only when you press EXECUTE, and it lets go when you abort, take over the attitude or arm the stock Auto burn.\nAn abort during the powered descent or the terminal hover leaves the engine as it is, so the craft does not drop, while every other abort cuts the engine.\nThe hover refuses a craft whose thrust at minimum throttle exceeds its weight, because such a craft climbs whenever the engine runs, and a G-FOLD or 6-DOF descent that would hand over to it flies its own plan to touchdown instead.\nG-FOLD suits airless bodies and agile landers that point with RCS. The 6-DOF solver models the vehicle rotation, so it handles boosters with high rotational inertia and descents through an atmosphere.\nThe native solvers `clarabel_c.dll` and `scs.dll` ship with the mod. See the [guidance documentation](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer/blob/main/docs/guidance/README.md) for how it works.\n\n## Installation\n\n1. Install [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap) and [KittenExtensions](https://github.com/tsholmes/KittenExtensions) (the latter is only required for hyperbolic targets and the AUTOSTAGE gauge button).\n2. Download the latest release from the [Releases](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer/releases) tab.\n3. Extract into `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\`.\n4. The game auto-discovers new mods and prompts you to enable them. Alternatively, add to `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\manifest.toml`:\n\n```toml\n[[mods]]\nid = \"AdvancedFlightComputer\"\nenabled = true\n```\n\n## Dependencies\n\n- [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap): Mod loader, required at runtime (see Installation).

Tick **Target flyby periapsis** in the Transfer Planning window and the departure burn is aimed to arrive at a periapsis you choose instead, so **Create** fires the flyby directly.\n\n- **Periapsis** is entered against a selectable reference: **Surface** (altitude above the mean radius), **Center** (radius straight from the body center), or **Atmosphere** (altitude above the atmosphere boundary). The Atmosphere option only appears for bodies that have one, and a request below the safe floor is refused.\n- **Flyby side** picks which side of the body you pass, named in the target's own orbital frame: **Inner** (toward its parent), **Outer** (away from it), **North**, or **South**. The aim offset has to stay perpendicular to the approach, so a side whose axis lies along the approach direction cannot be reached and is greyed out.\n- Works for moon flybys and for interplanetary targets, either as a single burn or split across multi-pass passes.\n- The section reports the approach speed, the impact parameter, the departure delta-V next to the impact-aimed one, and the periapsis the propagated trajectory actually reaches. While a flyby is armed the preview shows that retargeted trajectory in place of stock's center-aimed one.\n- For multiple passes, the readout uses the selected departure after any schedule shift and the periapsis from the final preview trajectory.\n- If propagation cannot confirm a periapsis, the readout shows **No prediction** and its reason, such as a departure time outside the flight plan or no resolved target encounter.\n\n**Limitations:**\n- The plan is impulsive, the burn is not. On a near-escape departure the periapsis actually flown drifts from the requested one by roughly the finite-burn loss, on the order of one percent of a multi-km/s injection. Trim it with a small correction burn, or split the departure across several passes to cut the loss.\n\n### Multi-Pass Burns\n\n![LEO to Luna multi-pass transfer](ksa-image:multi-pass)\n\nAny of the above plan types (including stock Hohmann and circularize Apse transfers) can be split into multiple burns across successive orbits.\nInstead of one long burn that sweeps a large arc away from periapsis, the engine fires in shorter bursts near periapsis on each orbit, reducing finite-burn loss.\n\n**Supported plan types that can be split:**\n- Hohmann transfers\n- Set Periapsis / Set Apoapsis\n- Match Inclination / Set Inclination\n- Circularize Apoapsis / Periapsis\n\n**How to use:**\n1. Select a plan type and configure the maneuver as usual.\n2. Use the **PASSES** slider to choose how many passes (2-10).\n3. Click **Create**. The first pass burn is placed in the burn plan.\n4. Enable **Auto** burn mode. Each pass fires automatically, with the main engine or as an RCS burn, and the next pass is scheduled after completion.\n5. The plan window shows \"Multi-pass active: pass X of N\" with remaining pass details and a **Cancel remaining passes** button.\n\n**Why it helps:**\nWhen burn duration is a significant fraction of the orbital period, a single burn wastes fuel by thrusting far from periapsis. Splitting across N passes keeps each burn near periapsis where the Oberth effect is strongest.\nReal lunar kick stages use the same technique, several perigee burns instead of one long injection. It helps most for low-TWR spacecraft such as ion engines, small kick stages and nuclear tugs, where a single departure burn can take tens of minutes.\n\n**Hands-free execution:**\nMulti-pass works best with the built-in automatic staging switched on (handles staging between passes) and the built-in automatic burn removal left on (cleans up completed burns). A multi-pass execution then runs hands-free from first ignition to final departure.\n\n**Limitations:**\n- Same-parent transfers (e.g., LEO to Luna) shift the final burn forward by a few parking periods to fit the K-schedule. The shift is shown in the plan window.\n- A change to the flyby side or altitude updates the selected departure even during thrust.\n- Very high-energy departures from small SOIs (e.g., low Mars orbit to Saturn) may auto-clamp to fewer passes because intermediate orbits would escape the SOI.\n\n### RCS Translation Burns\n\n![RCS burn options in the burn editor](ksa-image:rcs-burn-panel)\n\nExecute a planned burn with RCS thrusters only, no main engine. Useful for small correction burns (rotating the whole vehicle for the main engine can cost more than just translating) and for vehicles without an active main engine like small probes.\n\n- The stock **Auto** burn button is still the single trigger: it executes the next burn with its resolved method. A burn resolves to the main engine when an active, fueled engine exists, otherwise to RCS; a per-burn override is available in the burn editor window (\"Execution: Default | Engine | RCS\").\n- Two attitude strategies, selectable per burn: **Hold** (keep the current attitude, fire the axis mix that points at the burn vector) and **Align** (rotate the strongest thruster axis onto the burn vector first). **Auto** (default) compares propellant estimates for both, including the slew cost, and picks the cheaper one.\n- Execution is closed-loop against the game's own delta-V accounting: pulses shrink as the remaining delta-V approaches zero, and the burn stops inside the thrusters' minimum impulse of the target. The engine autopilot is suppressed for the whole run, so a misclick can never ignite the main engine on an RCS-armed burn.\n- Burns themselves stay in the stock save format; removing the mod keeps every planned burn. The RCS arming metadata lives in `mods/AdvancedFlightComputer/rcs-exec.toml` next to the mod and survives save/load, including mid-burn.\n- The burn editor warns when a burn resolves to RCS but no thruster can translate (no propellant, none active) and when the estimated propellant exceeds what the thrusters can actually reach. Auto also shows an alert and refuses the burn before it creates execution state or changes the controls when the burn has no delta-V, no usable translation, or no axis that can serve its direction.\n- Estimates for a later planned burn use the current vehicle as an approximation and show **Estimate basis: Current vehicle** in the burn editor or **Current vehicle** in the gauge. Stock only loads the first executable burn as its active burn target, so these estimates do not forecast earlier burns or staging.\n- Completed RCS burns raise a public event (`RcsBurnCompletions.Completed`) other mods can consume; the built-in automatic burn removal uses it to clean up finished RCS burns the same way it cleans up engine auto-burns.\n- The **allocator** is selectable per burn (default **Groups**). Groups fires signed-axis groups and uses attitude control to counter residual torque. **LP** solves a fuel-optimal jet-selection problem over individual thruster forces and torques (the Bergmann/Draper formulation). LP can require costly counter-thrust, so it is opt-in, and it falls back to Groups when the constraints are infeasible.\n\n### Automatic Staging\n\n**Stock**\n\n![Stock engine gauge panel](ksa-image:autostage-stock)\n\n**With AdvancedFlightComputer**\n\n![Engine gauge panel with AUTOSTAGE toggle](ksa-image:autostage-button)\n\nActivates the next sequence whenever the 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. Formerly the separate AutoStage mod; remove that mod when you install this version, because two stagers on one burnout would activate two sequences. The settings written by AutoStage are imported on the first load.\n\n- **AUTOSTAGE toggle button** on the EngineControl gauge panel, in the free slot under RCS. The switch belongs to the vehicle, so an armed craft keeps staging when you control another one. The same switch is available on the Mods settings page for installs without KittenExtensions.\n- **Control-module guard** - a sequence that would separate the last control module is never staged automatically; stage it by hand if that is what you want.\n- **Auto-burn continuation** - keeps the burn mode at Auto through staging so planned burns do not abort.\n- **Cascade staging** - stages again if the next stage is empty or only has decouplers.\n- **Spent stage drop** - sheds burnt-out boosters as soon as they quit, without waiting for the core stage to run dry.\n- **Configurable staging delays** - independent delays for decouplers and engines, simulating separation and engine spool-up time.\n- **On-screen countdowns** - \"Decouple in X.Xs\" and \"Ignition in X.Xs\" alerts during a delayed stage.\n\n**Spent stage drop.** When solid boosters burn out before a liquid core, a trigger that waits for every engine to go dry would carry the empty casings along as dead mass. The mod therefore also stages when the next sequence would jettison nothing but burnt-out hardware: the sequence activates no engine, every active engine it separates is spent, an engine that stays with the vehicle is still firing, and nothing it separates is an engine that has never been activated. It refuses when the separated parts still hold propellant a retained engine can draw from, or when an enabled fuel link crosses the separation, so crossfeed setups are not cut off mid-burn. Turn it off with \"Drop spent stages early\" on the Mods settings page if staging should wait for a full burnout.\n\n**Solid motors in the staging readout.** The game's staging model gives a solid motor the burn time of a full grain on every refresh, so a nearly spent booster is shown as a trickle that outlasts the core. The mod paces the motor at the mean flow of the burn it has left, read off its thrust curve, so the in-flight staging window and the guidance stage list end the booster phase where the boosters do.\n\n**Staging delays.** Two delays are configurable per part variant, both measured from the staging trigger: the engine ignition delay (default values per stock engine variant, the small EngineA1 ignites after 2 s, EngineA3 after 3 s) and the decoupler delay (default 0 s, which matches stock). Set the decoupler delay shorter than the engine delay if the lower stage should drop away before the upper stage lights up.\n\n- **Settings window (Settings > Mods > AUTOSTAGE):** the two switches, then the \"Engine Ignition Delays\" and \"Decoupler Delays\" tables listing every known part variant. Every setting takes effect immediately; click SAVE to persist it.\n- **Part window (right-click part > Window):** override the delay for a specific sequence on the current vehicle. A part gets one block per sequence it fires something in, each naming the module it covers. Per-vehicle overrides take priority over the global config.\n\nThe global config is `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\autostage.toml`:\n\n```toml\n[staging]\ndrop_spent_stages = true\n\n[engine_delays]\nCorePropulsionA_Prefab_EngineA2 = 2.0\nCorePropulsionA_Prefab_EngineA3 = 5.0\n\n[decoupler_delays]\nCoreFairingA_Prefab_Interstage3W3HB = 1.0\n```\n\nPer-vehicle sequence overrides are stored next to it in `autostage-vehicles\\.toml`, created automatically when you set an override in the part window, with separate `[sequence_delays]` (engines) and `[decoupler_delays]` sections. Nothing is written to a game save.\n\n### Automatic Burn Removal\n\nIn 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\" before the next maneuver can take focus. This feature cleans up completed burns automatically. Formerly the separate AutoRemoveFinishedBurns mod; remove that mod when you install this version. Its saved switch is imported on the first load.\n\n- **Auto-burns** are removed as soon as the flight computer flips out of Auto mode on completion. Completion is confirmed through the same delta-V vector reversal the stock flight computer uses, so a burn that flamed out before reaching its target stays in the plan and can be resumed after staging.\n- **RCS burns** executed by this mod are removed on their completion event.\n- **Manual burns are never touched**, and only the vehicle you control is watched. A burn that finishes on a background vehicle stays in its plan.\n- **Switch** on the Mods settings page, on by default, persisted in `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\autoremove.toml`.\n\n### Hyperbolic Targets\n\nThe stock Transfer Planner filters out bodies with eccentricity >= 1. This mod lets it target interstellar comets (Oumuamua, 2I/Borisov, 3I/ATLAS) by patching the planner's time-of-flight and alignment math to handle unbound orbits.\n\n### Powered Guidance\n\n[![Watch the PoweredGuidance demo](ksa-image:twin-boosters)](https://youtu.be/hSUcV6tx3oY)\n\nClosed-loop guidance that flies the vehicle for you, originally the [PoweredGuidance](https://github.com/cairn5/PoweredGuidance) mod by cairn5, see Credits.\nOpen the **AFC Guidance** menu in the top bar, switch **Enabled** on and open the panel with **Show panel**. EXECUTE, ABORT and RETARGET act on the selected tab.\n\n- **Ascent** flies UPFG, the Space Shuttle's ascent guidance, to a target periapsis, apoapsis, inclination and LAN, optionally holding the argument of periapsis too and otherwise inserting wherever the burn costs least dV, with an optional launch window, g-limit and booster reserve. Launching to a target vehicle flies a co-elliptic chase orbit below it. Staging goes through automatic staging, and a stage that separates with a command pod can get its own landing site.\n- **Boostback** flies a separated booster back toward its landing site with a settling burn, a flip, the boostback burn and an entry attitude, against an impact prediction through the atmosphere.\n- **Deorbit and land** flies the whole chain from orbit: the deorbit burn, a fuel-optimal powered descent with G-FOLD or the 6-DOF solver, and a terminal hover to touchdown.\n- **Land from here** starts only the powered descent and the hover, from where the craft is now.\n\nGuidance takes a craft only when you press EXECUTE, and it lets go when you abort, take over the attitude or arm the stock Auto burn.\nAn abort during the powered descent or the terminal hover leaves the engine as it is, so the craft does not drop, while every other abort cuts the engine.\nThe hover refuses a craft whose thrust at minimum throttle exceeds its weight, because such a craft climbs whenever the engine runs, and a G-FOLD or 6-DOF descent that would hand over to it flies its own plan to touchdown instead.\nG-FOLD suits airless bodies and agile landers that point with RCS. The 6-DOF solver models the vehicle rotation, so it handles boosters with high rotational inertia and descents through an atmosphere.\nThe native solvers `clarabel_c.dll` and `scs.dll` ship with the mod. See the [guidance documentation](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer/blob/main/docs/guidance/README.md) for how it works.\n\n## Installation\n\n1. Install [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap) and [KittenExtensions](https://github.com/tsholmes/KittenExtensions) (the latter is only required for hyperbolic targets and the AUTOSTAGE gauge button).\n2. Download the latest release from the [Releases](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer/releases) tab.\n3. Extract into `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\`.\n4. The game auto-discovers new mods and prompts you to enable them. Alternatively, add to `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\manifest.toml`:\n\n```toml\n[[mods]]\nid = \"AdvancedFlightComputer\"\nenabled = true\n```\n\n## Dependencies\n\n- [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap): Mod loader, required at runtime (see Installation).

Update is mandatory for this mod to work if you are on KSA version 2026.9.22.5482 and above; with v0.8.0, powered guidance fails as soon as it computes engine thrust.\n\n## Changes\n- Powered guidance uses the game's new engine performance method. Thrust and fuel flow are the same as before.\n- A save that the game cannot read, or a load that the vehicle editor refuses, no longer moves AFC's multi-pass burns and RCS executions to that save.\n- A save that fails to write keeps AFC's burn data with the previous save.\n- AutoStage reads up-to-date engine data right after you change the stages in the staging window.\n\n## Compatibility\nValidated against KSA build version **2026.9.22.5482**.\n\n## Installation\nExtract into `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\`.\nRequires [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap).\n\nYou can also easily download and install it via the mod manager **Borea**: https://ksamodding.github.io/Borea/", "listing": { "name": "Advanced Flight Computer", "authors": [ "Maxi" ], "abstract": "Maneuver planning, burn execution and closed-loop guidance for Kitten Space Agency.", "description": "Adds quick-tools to the Transfer Planner (set Pe/Ap, match/set inclination, circularize), flyby targeting so a Hohmann transfer arrives as a flyby instead of an impact, multi-pass burn splitting for Oberth-efficient departures, RCS-only burn execution, automatic staging with spent-booster drop and configurable staging delays, automatic removal of finished burns, and enables the planner to target interstellar comets on hyperbolic orbits (Oumuamua, 2I/Borisov, 3I/ATLAS).\nIts powered guidance flies an ascent to orbit, a booster boostback and a pinpoint powered landing.\n\nThis mod is written against the [StarMap loader](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap).\n\n## Features\n\n### Maneuver Quick-Tools\n\nNew plan types in the stock Transfer Planner dropdown:\n\n- **Set Periapsis / Set Apoapsis** - single burn at the opposite apse to raise or lower one apse to a target altitude.\n- **Match Inclination** - plane-change burn at AN or DN to align with a target orbit's plane.\n- **Set Inclination** - plane-change burn at AN or DN to set an absolute inclination angle. The reference plane is selectable: **Ecliptic** (matches `Orbit.Inclination`, KSA's system-wide inertial Z) or **Equatorial** (parent body's equator, standard astrodynamics convention). For Earth the two differ by the ~23.4 degree obliquity.\n\nRight-click the controlled vehicle's orbit and open **Advanced Flight Computer** to select a quick-tool.\nThe **At Periapsis** submenu offers **AFC: Set Apoapsis...**, and **At Apoapsis** offers **AFC: Set Periapsis...**.\nThese shortcuts open the planner and they do not place a burn at the clicked point.\n\nQuick-tools can plan a single burn after the last planned burn that changes the trajectory.\nFor example, plan a burn to raise apoapsis, then use **Set Periapsis** on the resulting orbit.\nThe preview and created node use that post-burn trajectory.\nMulti-pass cannot start on a pending burn's trajectory.\nShortcuts wait until a stock transfer calculation or active multi-pass execution has finished.\n\n### Flyby Targeting\n\nThe stock planner aims every transfer at the target body's center, so a well-timed Hohmann arrives as an impact and the flyby has to be set up afterwards as a separate correction. Tick **Target flyby periapsis** in the Transfer Planning window and the departure burn is aimed to arrive at a periapsis you choose instead, so **Create** fires the flyby directly.\n\n- **Periapsis** is entered against a selectable reference: **Surface** (altitude above the mean radius), **Center** (radius straight from the body center), or **Atmosphere** (altitude above the atmosphere boundary). The Atmosphere option only appears for bodies that have one, and a request below the safe floor is refused.\n- **Flyby side** picks which side of the body you pass, named in the target's own orbital frame: **Inner** (toward its parent), **Outer** (away from it), **North**, or **South**. The aim offset has to stay perpendicular to the approach, so a side whose axis lies along the approach direction cannot be reached and is greyed out.\n- Works for moon flybys and for interplanetary targets, either as a single burn or split across multi-pass passes.\n- The section reports the approach speed, the impact parameter, the departure delta-V next to the impact-aimed one, and the periapsis the propagated trajectory actually reaches. While a flyby is armed the preview shows that retargeted trajectory in place of stock's center-aimed one.\n- For multiple passes, the readout uses the selected departure after any schedule shift and the periapsis from the final preview trajectory.\n- If propagation cannot confirm a periapsis, the readout shows **No prediction** and its reason, such as a departure time outside the flight plan or no resolved target encounter.\n\n**Limitations:**\n- The plan is impulsive, the burn is not. On a near-escape departure the periapsis actually flown drifts from the requested one by roughly the finite-burn loss, on the order of one percent of a multi-km/s injection. Trim it with a small correction burn, or split the departure across several passes to cut the loss.\n\n### Multi-Pass Burns\n\n![LEO to Luna multi-pass transfer](ksa-image:multi-pass)\n\nAny of the above plan types (including stock Hohmann and circularize Apse transfers) can be split into multiple burns across successive orbits.\nInstead of one long burn that sweeps a large arc away from periapsis, the engine fires in shorter bursts near periapsis on each orbit, reducing finite-burn loss.\n\n**Supported plan types that can be split:**\n- Hohmann transfers\n- Set Periapsis / Set Apoapsis\n- Match Inclination / Set Inclination\n- Circularize Apoapsis / Periapsis\n\n**How to use:**\n1. Select a plan type and configure the maneuver as usual.\n2. Use the **PASSES** slider to choose how many passes (2-10).\n3. Click **Create**. The first pass burn is placed in the burn plan.\n4. Enable **Auto** burn mode. Each pass fires automatically, with the main engine or as an RCS burn, and the next pass is scheduled after completion.\n5. The plan window shows \"Multi-pass active: pass X of N\" with remaining pass details and a **Cancel remaining passes** button.\n\n**Why it helps:**\nWhen burn duration is a significant fraction of the orbital period, a single burn wastes fuel by thrusting far from periapsis. Splitting across N passes keeps each burn near periapsis where the Oberth effect is strongest.\nReal lunar kick stages use the same technique, several perigee burns instead of one long injection. It helps most for low-TWR spacecraft such as ion engines, small kick stages and nuclear tugs, where a single departure burn can take tens of minutes.\n\n**Hands-free execution:**\nMulti-pass works best with the built-in automatic staging switched on (handles staging between passes) and the built-in automatic burn removal left on (cleans up completed burns).

Useful for small correction burns (rotating the whole vehicle for the main engine can cost more than just translating) and for vehicles without an active main engine like small probes.\n\n- The stock **Auto** burn button is still the single trigger: it executes the next burn with its resolved method. A burn resolves to the main engine when an active, fueled engine exists, otherwise to RCS; a per-burn override is available in the burn editor window (\"Execution: Default | Engine | RCS\").\n- Two attitude strategies, selectable per burn: **Hold** (keep the current attitude, fire the axis mix that points at the burn vector) and **Align** (rotate the strongest thruster axis onto the burn vector first). **Auto** (default) compares propellant estimates for both, including the slew cost, and picks the cheaper one.\n- Execution is closed-loop against the game's own delta-V accounting: pulses shrink as the remaining delta-V approaches zero, and the burn stops inside the thrusters' minimum impulse of the target.

Works during auto-burns (continues the burn instead of aborting) and manual burns. Formerly the separate AutoStage mod; remove that mod when you install this version, because two stagers on one burnout would activate two sequences. The settings written by AutoStage are imported on the first load.\n\n- **AUTOSTAGE toggle button** on the EngineControl gauge panel, in the free slot under RCS. The switch belongs to the vehicle, so an armed craft keeps staging when you control another one. The same switch is available on the Mods settings page for installs without KittenExtensions.\n- **Control-module guard** - a sequence that would separate the last control module is never staged automatically; stage it by hand if that is what you want.\n- **Auto-burn continuation** - keeps the burn mode at Auto through staging so planned burns do not abort.\n- **Cascade staging** - stages again if the next stage is empty or only has decouplers.\n- **Spent stage drop** - sheds burnt-out boosters as soon as they quit, without waiting for the core stage to run dry.\n- **Configurable staging delays** - independent delays for decouplers and engines, simulating separation and engine spool-up time.\n- **On-screen countdowns** - \"Decouple in X.Xs\" and \"Ignition in X.Xs\" alerts during a delayed stage.\n\n**Spent stage drop.** When solid boosters burn out before a liquid core, a trigger that waits for every engine to go dry would carry the empty casings along as dead mass. The mod therefore also stages when the next sequence would jettison nothing but burnt-out hardware: the sequence activates no engine, every active engine it separates is spent, an engine that stays with the vehicle is still firing, and nothing it separates is an engine that has never been activated. It refuses when the separated parts still hold propellant a retained engine can draw from, or when an enabled fuel link crosses the separation, so crossfeed setups are not cut off mid-burn. Turn it off with \"Drop spent stages early\" on the Mods settings page if staging should wait for a full burnout.\n\n**Solid motors in the staging readout.** The game's staging model gives a solid motor the burn time of a full grain on every refresh, so a nearly spent booster is shown as a trickle that outlasts the core. The mod paces the motor at the mean flow of the burn it has left, read off its thrust curve, so the in-flight staging window and the guidance stage list end the booster phase where the boosters do.\n\n**Staging delays.** Two delays are configurable per part variant, both measured from the staging trigger: the engine ignition delay (default values per stock engine variant, the small EngineA1 ignites after 2 s, EngineA3 after 3 s) and the decoupler delay (default 0 s, which matches stock). Set the decoupler delay shorter than the engine delay if the lower stage should drop away before the upper stage lights up.\n\n- **Settings window (Settings > Mods > AUTOSTAGE):** the two switches, then the \"Engine Ignition Delays\" and \"Decoupler Delays\" tables listing every known part variant. Every setting takes effect immediately; click SAVE to persist it.\n- **Part window (right-click part > Window):** override the delay for a specific sequence on the current vehicle. A part gets one block per sequence it fires something in, each naming the module it covers. Per-vehicle overrides take priority over the global config.\n\nThe global config is `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\autostage.toml`:\n\n```toml\n[staging]\ndrop_spent_stages = true\n\n[engine_delays]\nCorePropulsionA_Prefab_EngineA2 = 2.0\nCorePropulsionA_Prefab_EngineA3 = 5.0\n\n[decoupler_delays]\nCoreFairingA_Prefab_Interstage3W3HB = 1.0\n```\n\nPer-vehicle sequence overrides are stored next to it in `autostage-vehicles\\.toml`, created automatically when you set an override in the part window, with separate `[sequence_delays]` (engines) and `[decoupler_delays]` sections. Nothing is written to a game save.\n\n### Automatic Burn Removal\n\nIn 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\" before the next maneuver can take focus. This feature cleans up completed burns automatically. Formerly the separate AutoRemoveFinishedBurns mod; remove that mod when you install this version. Its saved switch is imported on the first load.\n\n- **Auto-burns** are removed as soon as the flight computer flips out of Auto mode on completion. Completion is confirmed through the same delta-V vector reversal the stock flight computer uses, so a burn that flamed out before reaching its target stays in the plan and can be resumed after staging.\n- **RCS burns** executed by this mod are removed on their completion event.\n- **Manual burns are never touched**, and only the vehicle you control is watched. A burn that finishes on a background vehicle stays in its plan.\n- **Switch** on the Mods settings page, on by default, persisted in `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\autoremove.toml`.\n\n### Hyperbolic Targets\n\nThe stock Transfer Planner filters out bodies with eccentricity >= 1. This mod lets it target interstellar comets (Oumuamua, 2I/Borisov, 3I/ATLAS) by patching the planner's time-of-flight and alignment math to handle unbound orbits.\n\n### Powered Guidance\n\n[![Watch the PoweredGuidance demo](ksa-image:twin-boosters)](https://youtu.be/hSUcV6tx3oY)\n\nClosed-loop guidance that flies the vehicle for you, originally the [PoweredGuidance](https://github.com/cairn5/PoweredGuidance) mod by cairn5, see Credits.\nOpen the **AFC Guidance** menu in the top bar, switch **Enabled** on and open the panel with **Show panel**. EXECUTE, ABORT and RETARGET act on the selected tab.\n\n- **Ascent** flies UPFG, the Space Shuttle's ascent guidance, to a target periapsis, apoapsis, inclination and LAN, optionally holding the argument of periapsis too and otherwise inserting wherever the burn costs least dV, with an optional launch window, g-limit and booster reserve. Launching to a target vehicle flies a co-elliptic chase orbit below it. Staging goes through automatic staging, and a stage that separates with a command pod can get its own landing site.\n- **Boostback** flies a separated booster back toward its landing site with a settling burn, a flip, the boostback burn and an entry attitude, against an impact prediction through the atmosphere.\n- **Deorbit and land** flies the whole chain from orbit: the deorbit burn, a fuel-optimal powered descent with G-FOLD or the 6-DOF solver, and a terminal hover to touchdown.\n- **Land from here** starts only the powered descent and the hover, from where the craft is now.\n\nGuidance takes a craft only when you press EXECUTE, and it lets go when you abort, take over the attitude or arm the stock Auto burn.\nAn abort during the powered descent or the terminal hover leaves the engine as it is, so the craft does not drop, while every other abort cuts the engine.\nThe hover refuses a craft whose thrust at minimum throttle exceeds its weight, because such a craft climbs whenever the engine runs, and a G-FOLD or 6-DOF descent that would hand over to it flies its own plan to touchdown instead.\nG-FOLD suits airless bodies and agile landers that point with RCS. The 6-DOF solver models the vehicle rotation, so it handles boosters with high rotational inertia and descents through an atmosphere.\nThe native solvers `clarabel_c.dll` and `scs.dll` ship with the mod. See the [guidance documentation](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer/blob/main/docs/guidance/README.md) for how it works.\n\n## Installation\n\n1. Install [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap) and [KittenExtensions](https://github.com/tsholmes/KittenExtensions) (the latter is only required for hyperbolic targets and the AUTOSTAGE gauge button).\n2. Download the latest release from the [Releases](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer/releases) tab.\n3. Extract into `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\`.\n4. The game auto-discovers new mods and prompts you to enable them. Alternatively, add to `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\manifest.toml`:\n\n```toml\n[[mods]]\nid = \"AdvancedFlightComputer\"\nenabled = true\n```\n\n## Dependencies\n\n- [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap): Mod loader, required at runtime (see Installation).

The reference plane is selectable: **Ecliptic** (matches `Orbit.Inclination`, KSA's system-wide inertial Z) or **Equatorial** (parent body's equator, standard astrodynamics convention). For Earth the two differ by the ~23.4 degree obliquity.\n\nRight-click the controlled vehicle's orbit and open **Advanced Flight Computer** to select a quick-tool.\nThe **At Periapsis** submenu offers **AFC: Set Apoapsis...**, and **At Apoapsis** offers **AFC: Set Periapsis...**.\nThese shortcuts open the planner and they do not place a burn at the clicked point.\n\nQuick-tools can plan a single burn after the last planned burn that changes the trajectory.\nFor example, plan a burn to raise apoapsis, then use **Set Periapsis** on the resulting orbit.\nThe preview and created node use that post-burn trajectory.\nMulti-pass cannot start on a pending burn's trajectory.\nShortcuts wait until a stock transfer calculation or active multi-pass execution has finished.\n\n### Flyby Targeting\n\nThe stock planner aims every transfer at the target body's center, so a well-timed Hohmann arrives as an impact and the flyby has to be set up afterwards as a separate correction. Tick **Target flyby periapsis** in the Transfer Planning window and the departure burn is aimed to arrive at a periapsis you choose instead, so **Create** fires the flyby directly.\n\n- **Periapsis** is entered against a selectable reference: **Surface** (altitude above the mean radius), **Center** (radius straight from the body center), or **Atmosphere** (altitude above the atmosphere boundary). The Atmosphere option only appears for bodies that have one, and a request below the safe floor is refused.\n- **Flyby side** picks which side of the body you pass, named in the target's own orbital frame: **Inner** (toward its parent), **Outer** (away from it), **North**, or **South**. The aim offset has to stay perpendicular to the approach, so a side whose axis lies along the approach direction cannot be reached and is greyed out.\n- Works for moon flybys and for interplanetary targets, either as a single burn or split across multi-pass passes.\n- The section reports the approach speed, the impact parameter, the departure delta-V next to the impact-aimed one, and the periapsis the propagated trajectory actually reaches. While a flyby is armed the preview shows that retargeted trajectory in place of stock's center-aimed one.\n- For multiple passes, the readout uses the selected departure after any schedule shift and the periapsis from the final preview trajectory.\n- If propagation cannot confirm a periapsis, the readout shows **No prediction** and its reason, such as a departure time outside the flight plan or no resolved target encounter.\n\n**Limitations:**\n- The plan is impulsive, the burn is not. On a near-escape departure the periapsis actually flown drifts from the requested one by roughly the finite-burn loss, on the order of one percent of a multi-km/s injection. Trim it with a small correction burn, or split the departure across several passes to cut the loss.\n\n### Multi-Pass Burns\n\n![LEO to Luna multi-pass transfer](ksa-image:multi-pass)\n\nAny of the above plan types (including stock Hohmann and circularize Apse transfers) can be split into multiple burns across successive orbits.\nInstead of one long burn that sweeps a large arc away from periapsis, the engine fires in shorter bursts near periapsis on each orbit, reducing finite-burn loss.\n\n**Supported plan types that can be split:**\n- Hohmann transfers\n- Set Periapsis / Set Apoapsis\n- Match Inclination / Set Inclination\n- Circularize Apoapsis / Periapsis\n\n**How to use:**\n1. Select a plan type and configure the maneuver as usual.\n2. Use the **PASSES** slider to choose how many passes (2-10).\n3. Click **Create**. The first pass burn is placed in the burn plan.\n4. Enable **Auto** burn mode. Each pass fires automatically, with the main engine or as an RCS burn, and the next pass is scheduled after completion.\n5. The plan window shows \"Multi-pass active: pass X of N\" with remaining pass details and a **Cancel remaining passes** button.\n\n**Why it helps:**\nWhen burn duration is a significant fraction of the orbital period, a single burn wastes fuel by thrusting far from periapsis. Splitting across N passes keeps each burn near periapsis where the Oberth effect is strongest.\nReal lunar kick stages use the same technique, several perigee burns instead of one long injection. It helps most for low-TWR spacecraft such as ion engines, small kick stages and nuclear tugs, where a single departure burn can take tens of minutes.\n\n**Hands-free execution:**\nMulti-pass works best with the built-in automatic staging switched on (handles staging between passes) and the built-in automatic burn removal left on (cleans up completed burns). A multi-pass execution then runs hands-free from first ignition to final departure.\n\n**Limitations:**\n- Same-parent transfers (e.g., LEO to Luna) shift the final burn forward by a few parking periods to fit the K-schedule. The shift is shown in the plan window.\n- A change to the flyby side or altitude updates the selected departure even during thrust.\n- Very high-energy departures from small SOIs (e.g., low Mars orbit to Saturn) may auto-clamp to fewer passes because intermediate orbits would escape the SOI.\n\n### RCS Translation Burns\n\n![RCS burn options in the burn editor](ksa-image:rcs-burn-panel)\n\nExecute a planned burn with RCS thrusters only, no main engine. Useful for small correction burns (rotating the whole vehicle for the main engine can cost more than just translating) and for vehicles without an active main engine like small probes.\n\n- The stock **Auto** burn button is still the single trigger: it executes the next burn with its resolved method. A burn resolves to the main engine when an active, fueled engine exists, otherwise to RCS; a per-burn override is available in the burn editor window (\"Execution: Default | Engine | RCS\").\n- Two attitude strategies, selectable per burn: **Hold** (keep the current attitude, fire the axis mix that points at the burn vector) and **Align** (rotate the strongest thruster axis onto the burn vector first). **Auto** (default) compares propellant estimates for both, including the slew cost, and picks the cheaper one.\n- Execution is closed-loop against the game's own delta-V accounting: pulses shrink as the remaining delta-V approaches zero, and the burn stops inside the thrusters' minimum impulse of the target. The engine autopilot is suppressed for the whole run, so a misclick can never ignite the main engine on an RCS-armed burn.\n- Burns themselves stay in the stock save format; removing the mod keeps every planned burn. The RCS arming metadata lives in `mods/AdvancedFlightComputer/rcs-exec.toml` next to the mod and survives save/load, including mid-burn.\n- The burn editor warns when a burn resolves to RCS but no thruster can translate (no propellant, none active) and when the estimated propellant exceeds what the thrusters can actually reach. Auto also shows an alert and refuses the burn before it creates execution state or changes the controls when the burn has no delta-V, no usable translation, or no axis that can serve its direction.\n- Estimates for a later planned burn use the current vehicle as an approximation and show **Estimate basis: Current vehicle** in the burn editor or **Current vehicle** in the gauge. Stock only loads the first executable burn as its active burn target, so these estimates do not forecast earlier burns or staging.\n- Completed RCS burns raise a public event (`RcsBurnCompletions.Completed`) other mods can consume; the built-in automatic burn removal uses it to clean up finished RCS burns the same way it cleans up engine auto-burns.\n- The **allocator** is selectable per burn (default **Groups**). Groups fires signed-axis groups and uses attitude control to counter residual torque. **LP** solves a fuel-optimal jet-selection problem over individual thruster forces and torques (the Bergmann/Draper formulation). LP can require costly counter-thrust, so it is opt-in, and it falls back to Groups when the constraints are infeasible.\n\n### Automatic Staging\n\n**Stock**\n\n![Stock engine gauge panel](ksa-image:autostage-stock)\n\n**With AdvancedFlightComputer**\n\n![Engine gauge panel with AUTOSTAGE toggle](ksa-image:autostage-button)\n\nActivates the next sequence whenever the 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. Formerly the separate AutoStage mod; remove that mod when you install this version, because two stagers on one burnout would activate two sequences. The settings written by AutoStage are imported on the first load.\n\n- **AUTOSTAGE toggle button** on the EngineControl gauge panel, in the free slot under RCS. The switch belongs to the vehicle, so an armed craft keeps staging when you control another one. The same switch is available on the Mods settings page for installs without KittenExtensions.\n- **Control-module guard** - a sequence that would separate the last control module is never staged automatically; stage it by hand if that is what you want.\n- **Auto-burn continuation** - keeps the burn mode at Auto through staging so planned burns do not abort.\n- **Cascade staging** - stages again if the next stage is empty or only has decouplers.\n- **Spent stage drop** - sheds burnt-out boosters as soon as they quit, without waiting for the core stage to run dry.\n- **Configurable staging delays** - independent delays for decouplers and engines, simulating separation and engine spool-up time.\n- **On-screen countdowns** - \"Decouple in X.Xs\" and \"Ignition in X.Xs\" alerts during a delayed stage.\n\n**Spent stage drop.** When solid boosters burn out before a liquid core, a trigger that waits for every engine to go dry would carry the empty casings along as dead mass. The mod therefore also stages when the next sequence would jettison nothing but burnt-out hardware: the sequence activates no engine, every active engine it separates is spent, an engine that stays with the vehicle is still firing, and nothing it separates is an engine that has never been activated. It refuses when the separated parts still hold propellant a retained engine can draw from, or when an enabled fuel link crosses the separation, so crossfeed setups are not cut off mid-burn. Turn it off with \"Drop spent stages early\" on the Mods settings page if staging should wait for a full burnout.\n\n**Solid motors in the staging readout.** The game's staging model gives a solid motor the burn time of a full grain on every refresh, so a nearly spent booster is shown as a trickle that outlasts the core. The mod paces the motor at the mean flow of the burn it has left, read off its thrust curve, so the in-flight staging window and the guidance stage list end the booster phase where the boosters do.\n\n**Staging delays.** Two delays are configurable per part variant, both measured from the staging trigger: the engine ignition delay (default values per stock engine variant, the small EngineA1 ignites after 2 s, EngineA3 after 3 s) and the decoupler delay (default 0 s, which matches stock). Set the decoupler delay shorter than the engine delay if the lower stage should drop away before the upper stage lights up.\n\n- **Settings window (Settings > Mods > AUTOSTAGE):** the two switches, then the \"Engine Ignition Delays\" and \"Decoupler Delays\" tables listing every known part variant. Every setting takes effect immediately; click SAVE to persist it.\n- **Part window (right-click part > Window):** override the delay for a specific sequence on the current vehicle. A part gets one block per sequence it fires something in, each naming the module it covers. Per-vehicle overrides take priority over the global config.\n\nThe global config is `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\autostage.toml`:\n\n```toml\n[staging]\ndrop_spent_stages = true\n\n[engine_delays]\nCorePropulsionA_Prefab_EngineA2 = 2.0\nCorePropulsionA_Prefab_EngineA3 = 5.0\n\n[decoupler_delays]\nCoreFairingA_Prefab_Interstage3W3HB = 1.0\n```\n\nPer-vehicle sequence overrides are stored next to it in `autostage-vehicles\\.toml`, created automatically when you set an override in the part window, with separate `[sequence_delays]` (engines) and `[decoupler_delays]` sections. Nothing is written to a game save.\n\n### Automatic Burn Removal\n\nIn 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\" before the next maneuver can take focus. This feature cleans up completed burns automatically. Formerly the separate AutoRemoveFinishedBurns mod; remove that mod when you install this version. Its saved switch is imported on the first load.\n\n- **Auto-burns** are removed as soon as the flight computer flips out of Auto mode on completion. Completion is confirmed through the same delta-V vector reversal the stock flight computer uses, so a burn that flamed out before reaching its target stays in the plan and can be resumed after staging.\n- **RCS burns** executed by this mod are removed on their completion event.\n- **Manual burns are never touched**, and only the vehicle you control is watched. A burn that finishes on a background vehicle stays in its plan.\n- **Switch** on the Mods settings page, on by default, persisted in `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\autoremove.toml`.\n\n### Hyperbolic Targets\n\nThe stock Transfer Planner filters out bodies with eccentricity >= 1. This mod lets it target interstellar comets (Oumuamua, 2I/Borisov, 3I/ATLAS) by patching the planner's time-of-flight and alignment math to handle unbound orbits.\n\n### Powered Guidance\n\n[![Watch the PoweredGuidance demo](ksa-image:twin-boosters)](https://youtu.be/hSUcV6tx3oY)\n\nClosed-loop guidance that flies the vehicle for you, originally the [PoweredGuidance](https://github.com/cairn5/PoweredGuidance) mod by cairn5, see Credits.\nOpen the **AFC Guidance** menu in the top bar, switch **Enabled** on and open the panel with **Show panel**. EXECUTE, ABORT and RETARGET act on the selected tab.\n\n- **Ascent** flies UPFG, the Space Shuttle's ascent guidance, to a target periapsis, apoapsis, inclination and LAN, optionally holding the argument of periapsis too and otherwise inserting wherever the burn costs least dV, with an optional launch window, g-limit and booster reserve. Launching to a target vehicle flies a co-elliptic chase orbit below it. Staging goes through automatic staging, and a stage that separates with a command pod can get its own landing site.\n- **Boostback** flies a separated booster back toward its landing site with a settling burn, a flip, the boostback burn and an entry attitude, against an impact prediction through the atmosphere.\n- **Deorbit and land** flies the whole chain from orbit: the deorbit burn, a fuel-optimal powered descent with G-FOLD or the 6-DOF solver, and a terminal hover to touchdown.\n- **Land from here** starts only the powered descent and the hover, from where the craft is now.\n\nGuidance takes a craft only when you press EXECUTE, and it lets go when you abort, take over the attitude or arm the stock Auto burn.\nAn abort during the powered descent or the terminal hover leaves the engine as it is, so the craft does not drop, while every other abort cuts the engine.\nThe hover refuses a craft whose thrust at minimum throttle exceeds its weight, because such a craft climbs whenever the engine runs, and a G-FOLD or 6-DOF descent that would hand over to it flies its own plan to touchdown instead.\nG-FOLD suits airless bodies and agile landers that point with RCS. The 6-DOF solver models the vehicle rotation, so it handles boosters with high rotational inertia and descents through an atmosphere.\nThe native solvers `clarabel_c.dll` and `scs.dll` ship with the mod. See the [guidance documentation](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer/blob/main/docs/guidance/README.md) for how it works.\n\n## Installation\n\n1. Install [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap) and [KittenExtensions](https://github.com/tsholmes/KittenExtensions) (the latter is only required for hyperbolic targets and the AUTOSTAGE gauge button).\n2. Download the latest release from the [Releases](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer/releases) tab.\n3. Extract into `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\AdvancedFlightComputer\\`.\n4. The game auto-discovers new mods and prompts you to enable them. Alternatively, add to `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\manifest.toml`:\n\n```toml\n[[mods]]\nid = \"AdvancedFlightComputer\"\nenabled = true\n```\n\n## Dependencies\n\n- [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap): Mod loader, required at runtime (see Installation). Tested version 0.4.6.\n- [KittenExtensions](https://github.com/tsholmes/KittenExtensions): Optional, required at runtime for the hyperbolic-targets and AUTOSTAGE button XML patches. Tested version v0.4.0.\n\n## Build dependencies\n\nRequired only to build the mod from source. Targets **.NET 10**.\n\n- [StarMap.API](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap) from NuGet, tested version 0.3.6.\n- [Lib.Harmony](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Lib.Harmony) from NuGet, tested version 2.4.2.\n\nThe native guidance solvers are built from the vendored sources with Rust and Zig, see [native-build.md](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer/blob/main/docs/guidance/native-build.md).\n\n## Mod compatibility\n\n- [AutoStage](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AutoStage), [AutoRemoveFinishedBurns](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AutoRemoveFinishedBurns) and [PoweredGuidance](https://github.com/cairn5/PoweredGuidance) are now part of this mod. Delete their folders under `mods`, because a disabled mod still applies its XML patches.\n- Known conflicts: none\n\n## Credits\n\n- **Oliver Cairns ([cairn5](https://github.com/cairn5))** wrote [PoweredGuidance](https://github.com/cairn5/PoweredGuidance), which is the powered guidance in this mod: the UPFG ascent and its landing mode, G-FOLD, the CAT-S successive-convexification 6-DOF guidance, boostback, terminal hover, returnable stages, the impact prediction and the guidance panel.

[StarMap loader](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap).\n\n## What it does\n\nThe map tells you \"where can I go from where I am and for how much delta-v\".\nThe transfer-window layer answers the \"and when do I leave\" question.\n\nBoth are generated from the loaded `CelestialSystem`, recurse through every planet, moon, asteroid and comet, and read each body's mass, radius, SOI, orbit and atmosphere. Nothing is hardcoded.\n\nAll numbers are closed-form patched-conic estimates (Hohmann transfers with Oberth-combined departure and capture, no iterative solver), so the whole map is fast and every transfer is cached once per session.\n\nThe delta-v figures are the idealized optimal values, so they assume a well-timed, well-flown transfer. A \"piloting-margin percentage\" slider is available.\n\n## Features\n\n### Delta-v subway map\n\n- **Ego-centric metro layout.** The body you are currently in is the root; the map re-roots automatically on the next open after an SOI change, and Shift-Click re-roots to any body on demand.\n- **Accurate budgets.** Closed-form Hohmann transfers with Oberth-combined ejection and capture, a per-body state ladder (surface, low orbit, stationary, SOI edge, intercept) and a \"you are here\" marker at your actual orbit.\n- **Route planning.** Click any body to highlight the exact route from your current state, with a running total and a per-segment breakdown. Toggles for from-surface, landing, aerobraking, plane change and a return trip, plus a piloting-margin percentage to budget for non-optimal flying.\n- **Vehicle comparison.** A bar compares the selected route against your ship's available delta-v.\n- **Readable at scale.** Node-symbol vocabulary with a legend, search / focus / isolate, and automatic minor-body aggregation so a dense system (thousands of asteroids) stays usable.\n- **Three layout modes**, switched from the on-canvas toggle or the Options menu:\n\n**Cumulative-down (default)**\n\n![Cumulative-down layout](ksa-image:delta-v-map)\n\n**Gravity-well**\n\n![Gravity-well layout](ksa-image:layout-gravity-well)\n\n**Spring**\n\n![Spring layout](ksa-image:layout-spring)\n\n### Transfer windows\n\nThe timing companion to the map. For the root body and every sibling sharing its parent, it shows the optimal phase angle, the live current phase, a countdown to the next window, the synodic period, the ejection angle and the transfer time, in a compact list plus a live polar phase-clock.\n\n![The transfer-window list and phase clock](ksa-image:transfer-windows)\n\nA separate, opt-in layer draws the same data in the game's 3D map mode: the optimal-departure marker on the destination's real orbit (where it will be when the window opens), the planet-star-planet phase angle, and an ejection-angle gizmo at the departure body.\n\n![The transfer-window overlay in the game map mode](ksa-image:map-mode-overlay)\n\n## Installation\n\n1.

For the root body and every sibling sharing its parent, it shows the optimal phase angle, the live current phase, a countdown to the next window, the synodic period, the ejection angle and the transfer time, in a compact list plus a live polar phase-clock.\n\n![The transfer-window list and phase clock](ksa-image:transfer-windows)\n\nA separate, opt-in layer draws the same data in the game's 3D map mode: the optimal-departure marker on the destination's real orbit (where it will be when the window opens), the planet-star-planet phase angle, and an ejection-angle gizmo at the departure body.\n\n![The transfer-window overlay in the game map mode](ksa-image:map-mode-overlay)\n\n## Installation\n\n1. Install [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap).\n2. Download the latest release from the [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-DeltaVMap/releases) tab or from [SpaceDock](https://spacedock.info/mod/4294/DeltaVMap).\n3. Extract into `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\DeltaVMap\\`.\n4. The game auto-discovers new mods and prompts you to enable them. Alternatively, add to `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\manifest.toml`:\n\n```toml\n[[mods]]\nid = \"DeltaVMap\"\nenabled = true\n```\n\nOpen the map from the **View** -> \"Delta-V Map\" menu in flight, or the top-level **Delta-V Map** tab in the editor.\n\n## Dependencies\n\n- [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap): Mod loader, required at runtime (see Installation). Tested version 0.4.6.\n\n## Build dependencies\n\nRequired only to build the mod from source. Targets **.NET 10**.\n\n- [StarMap.API](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap) from NuGet, tested version 0.3.6.\n- [Lib.Harmony](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Lib.Harmony) from NuGet, tested version 2.4.2.\n\n## Mod compatibility\n\n- Known conflicts: none\n\n## Community\n\nThread on the KSA forums: https://forums.ahwoo.com/threads/deltavmap.978/\n\n## Check out my other mods\n\n- [AdvancedFlightComputer](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-AdvancedFlightComputer) - maneuver planning, burn execution, automatic staging and closed-loop guidance ([forum thread](https://forums.ahwoo.com/threads/advanced-flight-computer.783/))\n- [MeasureTools](https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-MeasureTools) - click-to-measure ruler, protractor, and surface measuring in the map view ([forum thread](https://forums.ahwoo.com/threads/measuretools.992/))\n", "license": "MIT", "tags": [ "user-interface" ], "links": { "forums": "https://forums.ahwoo.com/threads/deltavmap.978/", "repository": "https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-DeltaVMap", "spacedock": "https://spacedock.info/mod/4294/DeltaVMap", "bugtracker": "https://github.com/Maximilian-Nesslauer/KSA-DeltaVMap/issues" } } } ], "downloads": { "total": 5071, "hosts": { "github": 4439, "spacedock": 632 }, "releases": [ { "version": "1.2.7", "total": 21, "hosts": { "github": 15, "spacedock": 6 } }, { "version": "1.2.6", "total": 116, "hosts": { "github": 86, "spacedock": 30 } }, { "version": "1.2.5", "total": 41, "hosts": { "github": 15, "spacedock": 26 } }, { "version": "1.2.4", "total": 3462, "hosts": { "github": 3459, "spacedock": 3 } }, { "version": "1.2.3", "total": 203, "hosts": { "github": 189, "spacedock": 14 } }, { "version": "1.2.2", "total": 541, "hosts": { "github": 447, "spacedock": 94 } }, { "version": "1.2.1", "total": 100, "hosts": { "github": 47, "spacedock": 53 } }, { "version": "1.2.0", "total": 23, "hosts": { "github": 10, "spacedock": 13 } }, { "version": "1.1.11", "total": 43, "hosts": { "github": 13, "spacedock": 30 } }, { "version": "1.1.10", "total": 38, "hosts": { "github": 14, "spacedock": 24 } }, { "version": "1.1.9", "total": 26, "hosts": { "github": 9, "spacedock": 17 } }, { "version": "1.1.8", "total": 48, "hosts": { "github": 14, "spacedock": 34 } }, { "version": "1.1.7", "total": 34, "hosts": { "github": 11, "spacedock": 23 } }, { "version": "1.1.6", "total": 35, "hosts": { "github": 10, "spacedock": 25 } }, { "version": "1.1.5", "total": 44, "hosts": { "github": 23, "spacedock": 21 } }, { "version": "1.1.4", "total": 44, "hosts": { "github": 12, "spacedock": 32 } }, { "version": "1.1.3", "total": 38, "hosts": { "github": 9, "spacedock": 29 } }, { "version": "1.1.2", "total": 34, "hosts": { "github": 8, "spacedock": 26 } }, { "version": "1.1.1", "total": 28, "hosts": { "github": 10, "spacedock": 18 } }, { "version": "1.1.0", "total": 31, "hosts": { "github": 10, "spacedock": 21 } }, { "version": "1.0.2", "total": 34, "hosts": { "github": 8, "spacedock": 26 } }, { "version": "1.0.1", "total": 47, "hosts": { "github": 10, "spacedock": 37 } }, { "version": "1.0.0", "total": 40, "hosts": { "github": 10, "spacedock": 30 } } ] } }, { "id": "KittenExtensionsContinued", "published_at": "2026-09-22T17:55:33Z", "updated_at": "2026-09-22T17:55:33Z", "authored": { "spec_version": 1, "id": "KittenExtensionsContinued", "type": "mod", "name": "KittenExtensions Continued", "authors": [ "AMPW" ], "abstract": "XML Patching (ModuleManager like), Custom XML Assets", "description": "# KittenExtensions Continued\n\nThis is a continuation of tom_is_unlucky's awesome KittenExtensions mod.

"Adds working weapon systems to Kitten Space Agency. Every launcher searches, tracks, decides and shoots on its own, and the rounds are simulated by the mod rather than by the vehicle physics, so guidance runs at sub-frame accuracy and cannot corrupt a save.\n\n### Launchers\n\nA **Pantsir-S1** on an 8x8 chassis: search radar, twelve proportional-navigation interceptors in two pods of six, twin cannon, and a turret that traverses and elevates. A **Mk 15 Phalanx CIWS** that stacks on any 3 m node and carries no missiles at all. Three rails that surface-attach to anything: **LAU-7** with an AIM-9J, **LAU-128** with an AIM-120C, and **LAU-118** with an AGM-88 HARM, which homes on radar emissions and cannot engage an aircraft. A **B61 rack** that neither aims nor fires - it lets a bomb go and the ground does the rest.\n\n### Sights\n\nAn **electro-optical director** on a mast and a **Rafael LITENING pod** whose whole nose rolls about its centreline while the sight nods within it. Both drive the main view, magnify by rewriting the field of view, and work on a craft carrying no weapons at all - a hull with one director on it is an observation post.\n\n### Fire control\n\nThreat classification is by closest point of approach rather than closing speed, so targets passing by are engageable and not only ones flying straight at you.

([3af5598](https://github.com/LaurensDeV/KSArmory/commit/3af5598ea2255dead87d123f392ab16d90f7ea2f))\n\n\n---\n\nDrop the `KSArmory` folder into your KSA user directory's `mods/`, register it in\n`manifest.toml`, and launch through StarMap. See the README for the full guide.\n\nWorks on Windows and Linux — the mod is a portable .NET assembly.\n\nRelease build: no debug symbols, log starts at INFO. Tick **Verbose log** in the\npanel if you are reporting a bug.", "listing": { "name": "KSArmory", "authors": [ "Laurens" ], "abstract": "Weapon systems for Kitten Space Agency: point defence, guided and unguided munitions, targeting sights and a ballistic computer.", "description": "Adds working weapon systems to Kitten Space Agency. Every launcher searches, tracks, decides and shoots on its own, and the rounds are simulated by the mod rather than by the vehicle physics, so guidance runs at sub-frame accuracy and cannot corrupt a save.\n\n### Launchers\n\nA **Pantsir-S1** on an 8x8 chassis: search radar, twelve proportional-navigation interceptors in two pods of six, twin cannon, and a turret that traverses and elevates. A **Mk 15 Phalanx CIWS** that stacks on any 3 m node and carries no missiles at all. Three rails that surface-attach to anything: **LAU-7** with an AIM-9J, **LAU-128** with an AIM-120C, and **LAU-118** with an AGM-88 HARM, which homes on radar emissions and cannot engage an aircraft. A **B61 rack** that neither aims nor fires - it lets a bomb go and the ground does the rest.\n\n### Sights\n\nAn **electro-optical director** on a mast and a **Rafael LITENING pod** whose whole nose rolls about its centreline while the sight nods within it. Both drive the main view, magnify by rewriting the field of view, and work on a craft carrying no weapons at all - a hull with one director on it is an observation post.\n\n### Fire control\n\nThreat classification is by closest point of approach rather than closing speed, so targets passing by are engageable and not only ones flying straight at you. IFF is per installation, so two sites can be on opposite sides. A radar can be told to go silent, which is a trade rather than a free defence: a silent set cannot be homed on and cannot see. Rounds can themselves be shot down.\n\n### Ballistic computer\n\nAim a multiple-warhead ballistic missile at a point on any body and it flies itself: ascent, guided cutoff on velocity-to-be-gained, post-boost trim, and a warhead bus that releases each round along the same line. It picks up from wherever the vehicle already is - on the pad, mid-ascent, or in orbit, where it also decides *when* to leave.\n\n### Effects\n\nDetonations, nuclear fireballs and mushroom clouds standing in the world, motor plumes and smoke trails, tracers, muzzle flashes and spatialised gunfire, all through the engine's own renderers.\n", "license": "MIT", "tags": [ "parts", "weapons",

Snaps to bodies, to body surfaces (the edge of a planet's disc), and to points on orbit lines; clicks on empty space place free points.\n- **Protractor** - click three points (arm, apex, arm) to read the true 3D angle plus both arm lengths, e.g. the phase angle between two planets around their star.\n- **Part-level measuring** - when the camera is close to a vehicle, points snap to individual parts with centimeter precision: attach nodes and part centers first, then mesh vertices (tank rims, panel corners), and everywhere else the exact hull point under the cursor. Anchors stick to their part, so measurements stay correct while the vehicle moves and rotates - including between parts of two vehicles flying side by side. Engine nozzles measure at their neutral position (gimbal deflection is visual only). Anchors follow their part across staging and docking (watch a separation distance grow after decoupling); only destroying the part removes the measurement.\n- **CAD-style snapping** - beyond attach nodes and vertices, points snap to mesh feature edges (slide along a tank rim between its vertices), edge midpoints, fitted rim centers, and the mirror of the previous point across the part's axis for exact antipodal pairs. Same-vehicle ruler measurements additionally report axial and radial components along the stack axis, on the overlay and in the copied text.\n- **Circle** - one click on a circular part edge (tank rim, engine bell exit) reads diameter, radius, and circumference from a fitted circle that tracks the part.\n- **Face angle** - two clicks on part surfaces read the angle between the surface normals (engine cant, fin alignment), live while the vehicle rotates.\n- **Surface** - pin two points to a planet's surface for the great-circle distance, chord, and initial bearing; pins track the body's rotation like ground markers.\n- **Editor measuring** - the ruler and protractor also work inside the vehicle editor, with the same part-level snapping (attach nodes, part centers, mesh vertices, hull points) over the craft being built, including parts currently held in the hand. Open it from the new top-level **Measure** menu in the editor menu bar. Anchors follow parts as they are dragged, so a measurement updates live while building, and part measurements carry across the editor boundary in both directions: measure in flight and refine in the editor, or measure while building and keep the numbers through launch. Points on a part disappear when the part is deleted; free points placed in the editor clear when it closes.\n- **Live preview** with snap highlighting, hover-sync between the list and the map, and click-to-copy values.\n- **Color palettes** - every overlay color (lines, labels, snap markers, construction plane) has a color picker, organized into named palettes: four shipped ones (Red, Green, Blue, Contrast) plus your own, all editable, persisted across sessions. Switch quickly via the window's **Palette** menu to match the vehicle you are measuring (green lines on a red rocket, red on a green one).\n\n![Part-level measuring on a rocket: tank diameter from a fitted rim circle, stack height with axial and radial components, booster clearance, and engine cant angles](ksa-image:parts)\n\n## Usage\n\nIn the map view or the default flight view, open **View -> Measure**; in the vehicle editor, open **Measure -> Show Window** from the menu bar. Pick a tool (Ruler, Protractor, Surface, Circle, Face angle) and click in the view to place points. The free-fly and IVA cameras steer with the left mouse button, so the tool stays inactive there to leave their controls untouched. While the tool is armed it owns left clicks, so editor part placement is suspended; pause the tool (short right-click) or close the window to build normally.\n\n- **Left-click**: Place a point (snaps to parts, bodies, disc edges, and orbit lines)\n- **Ctrl + left-click**: Place a free point on the ecliptic plane through the reference body\n- **Short right-click**: Cancel the current point, or pause measuring when nothing is pending (over a part, the stock part menu opens instead of pausing)\n- **Click a list row**: Copy the measurement to the clipboard\n\nPart snapping can be tuned in the window: \"Snap to parts\" turns part picking off entirely (vehicles then snap at their center marker as before), and the two sub-toggles control the attach-node/part-center and mesh-vertex snap tiers.\n\nFree clicks that snap to nothing land on the camera-facing plane. While measuring is paused, no tool is selected and all clicks pass through to the game; pick a tool to resume. Measurements are not saved to the save file; closing the window clears them.\n\n## Installation\n\n1. Install [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap).\n2.

Update is mandatory for this mod to work if you are on KSA version 2026.9.4.5400 and above; an older build fails to load and the measure tools never appear.\n\n## Changes\n- Ports the tool to the new viewport interfaces, and takes the part under the cursor, the cursor position and the overlay draw list from the stock helpers.\n- Hands the mouse latch back on a consumed right release, which this game version moved into a path the tool skipped. Right-click cancel no longer leaves the camera or the burn context menu stuck.\n- Pairs a consumed left press with its release before every other gate, so a click that starts in one view and ends in another cannot leave the editor holding a part.\n- Ignores left clicks while the editor is holding a grabbed part or a gizmo, which the tool used to strand mid-drag.\n- Clears measurements when a save is loaded, so anchors from the previous flight no longer survive into the new one.\n\n## Compatibility\nValidated against KSA build version **2026.9.4.5400**.\n\n## Installation\nExtract into `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\MeasureTools\\`.\nRequires [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap).", "listing": { "name": "MeasureTools", "authors": [ "Maxi" ], "abstract": "Click-to-measure ruler and protractor tools for Kitten Space Agency.", "description": "Click-to-measure ruler and protractor tools for Kitten Space Agency.\n\n### Features\n\n- **Ruler**, click two points to measure the straight-line distance. Snaps to bodies, to body surfaces (the edge of a planet's disc), and to points on orbit lines; clicks on empty space place free points.\n- **Protractor**, click three points (arm, apex, arm) to read the true 3D angle plus both arm lengths, for example the phase angle between two planets around their star.\n- **Part-level measuring**, when the camera is close to a vehicle, points snap to individual parts with centimeter precision: attach nodes and part centers first, then mesh vertices (tank rims, panel corners), and everywhere else the exact hull point under the cursor. Anchors stick to their part, so measurements stay correct while the vehicle moves and rotates, including between parts of two vehicles flying side by side. Engine nozzles measure at their neutral position (gimbal deflection is visual only). Anchors follow their part across staging and docking; only destroying the part removes the measurement.\n- **CAD-style snapping**, beyond attach nodes and vertices, points snap to mesh feature edges (slide along a tank rim between its vertices), edge midpoints, fitted rim centers, and the mirror of the previous point across the part's axis for exact antipodal pairs. Same-vehicle ruler measurements additionally report axial and radial components along the stack axis.\n- **Circle**, one click on a circular part edge (tank rim, engine bell exit) reads diameter, radius, and circumference from a fitted circle that tracks the part.\n- **Face angle**, two clicks on part surfaces read the angle between the surface normals (engine cant, fin alignment), live while the vehicle rotates.\n- **Surface**, pin two points to a planet's surface for the great-circle distance, chord, and initial bearing; pins track the body's rotation like ground markers.\n- **Editor measuring**, the ruler and protractor also work inside the vehicle editor, with the same part-level snapping over the craft being built, including parts currently held in the hand.

Each release is named with the KSA build it was tested on.\n\n**With Borea:** install Real Atmospheres from the mod list.\n\n**Manually:**\n\n1. Install StarMap and run the game once through `StarMap.Loader.exe`.\n2. Extract the release into `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\`, giving `mods\\RealAtmospheres\\RealAtmospheres.dll`.\n3. Launch the game once and close it. KSA adds new mods to `manifest.toml` disabled: set this mod's entry to `enabled = true`.\n4. Launch through StarMap.\n\nTo uninstall, delete `mods\\RealAtmospheres` and `mods\\_RealSharedShadow`.\n\n## Building\n\n`deploy.ps1` builds the mod and installs it into your mods folder. `package.ps1 -Version x.y.z -GameBuild vYYYY.M.D.NNNN` builds a release archive in `dist\\`. Set `StarMapDir` to your StarMap folder.\n\n## Credits\n\n- Saturn map mixed by JCP-JohnCarlo, from work by HellcatF6F, MrSpace43-Celestia, FarGetaNik and Snowfall-The-Cat.\n- Uranus map by Askaniy, [CC BY-NC-SA 3.0](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/).

No game files are\nmodified and no admin rights are needed: at launch the mod builds patched\nshadow copies of the relevant Core content in the mods folder and uses Harmony\nto redirect the game's file reads into them. The shadow is rebuilt from the\ncurrent game files at every launch, and if an update changes an XML anchor the\naffected patch is skipped gracefully (stock look until the mod is updated).\nShader patches are more fragile: a game update that reworks the atmosphere\nshaders can stop them compiling, so check the release's tested game build.\n\n## What it changes\n\n### Mars\n\n- **Rayleigh scattering** derived from real composition (95% CO₂ at 6.1 mbar):\n faint, blue, λ⁻⁴.\n- **Dust as the colour engine**: bhmie-derived Mie coefficients (red-heavy\n scattering spectrum), 9 km well-mixed scale height — the sky colour now comes\n from real dust optics, not a painted tint.\n- **Mie-theory dust phase function** (Level 2 of Schneegans et al. 2024): the\n *exact* per-angle Mie phase function from a bhmie solution for\n feldspar+hematite Martian dust, baked as a 361-sample lookup table in\n `AtmosphereFunctions.glsl` (no Henyey–Greenstein approximation) and selected by\n a sentinel asymmetry value. Produces the physically-exact blue sun halo.\n- **Double-exponential dust density**: a compact, capped dust layer (Schneegans)\n across all the atmosphere shaders, so the sunset forward-glow is controlled by\n the real dust vertical profile rather than an artificial limiter — the\n Curiosity-style blue sunset, tamed but brilliant.\n- **MarsCirrus layer**: high-altitude (22–29 km) water-ice clouds — polar hoods\n and equatorial wisps, 2D + volumetric, from an 8k source map.\n\n![Mars from orbit](ksa-image:mars-orbit)\n![Mars's north pole](ksa-image:mars-north-pole)\n![Mars's dust scattering](ksa-image:mars-surface-dust)\n![Mars with clouds overhead](ksa-image:mars-clouds)\n![Mars's blue sunset](ksa-image:mars-sunset)\n\n### Venus\n\n- **Composition-true dense CO₂ Rayleigh** (×53 Earth surface density), plus a\n blue-selective absorber low in the atmosphere that drives a progressively\n murkier yellow descent to a Venera-matching dark surface — the \"fog\" emerges\n from real multiple scattering and aerial perspective, no fake fog term. (The\n famous dark UV markings come from Venus's *real* \"unknown UV absorber\", which\n actually sits high at the cloud tops — those are carried by the cloud texture,\n not this low-altitude atmospheric term, which models the sub-cloud murk.)\n\n![Venus from orbit](ksa-image:venus-orbit)\n![Venus's thick fog](ksa-image:venus-surface)\n\n### Jupiter\n\n- **Composition-derived H₂/He Rayleigh** (×0.31 Earth) at the true 25 km scale\n height — a razor-thin blue limb over the cloud tops, Juno-style.\n- **Cloud decks rescaled to reality**: lower deck −25 to +15 km, main deck from\n 15 km with storm structures 10–96 km tall, densities and raymarching rescaled\n to preserve opacity and detail. Orbit-transition altitudes rescaled to match.\n\n![Jupiter's clouds](ksa-image:jupiter-low)\n\n### Saturn\n\n- **Above-haze Rayleigh**: a faint λ⁻⁴ blue limb (the deep atmosphere is hidden\n beneath the high haze), a thin gentle haze layer, and a pale-gold methane\n chromophore. Physically-derived 52 km scale height (Saturn's low gravity\n makes it puffy).\n- **Volumetric clouds** (Jupiter-style, stock Saturn had none): 3D banded cloud\n structure with towers, coverage taken from the planet's own banding and colour\n sampled from its diffuse map, so the clouds match the surface. How high a column\n builds follows the map's brightness, bright cloud being fresh ice carried up,\n so the pale bands stand roughly 37 km above the dark ones.\n- **Higher-resolution surface map** — 2048/face, up from stock 1024.\n\n![Saturn's clouds](ksa-image:saturn-low)\n\n### Uranus & Neptune\n\n- **Methane red-absorber** (in the ozone slot) is the colour engine: moderate\n for Uranus's pale cyan — its thick photochemical haze mutes it — and stronger\n for Neptune's deep blue, whose clearer atmosphere lets the colour show. A thin\n above-haze λ⁻⁴ Rayleigh limb and a gentle haze sit on top.\n- **Volumetric clouds** (Jupiter-style, neither had any in stock): 3D cloud\n structure with towers, coverage from the planet's banding and colour sampled\n from its diffuse map. Cloud-top height follows the map's brightness, so\n Neptune's white wisps ride about 26 km above its dark lanes. Subtler on\n featureless Uranus, more defined on Neptune.\n- **Higher-resolution surface maps** — 2048/face, up from stock 512.\n\n![Uranus's clouds](ksa-image:uranus-low)\n![Neptune's clouds](ksa-image:neptune-low)\n\n### Titan\n\n- **Stratified haze bands**: the layered upper hazes are modulated into the\n actual scattering medium (Rayleigh density warped into denser/thinner shells),\n not painted on — so limb glow, phase and transmittance are all physically\n correct. A per-pixel limb march gives them organic, broken, undulating,\n region-varying structure — the horizontal detail the symmetric atmosphere LUT\n can't hold — and they slowly rotate around Titan's spin axis and reshape over\n time (sim-linked: pausing freezes them, time-warp speeds them up). Confined to\n high altitude above the tholin deck, over a smooth thick lower haze, matching\n Cassini limb imagery closely enough to be hard to tell from a photo.\n- **Detached haze laminae**: two barely-visible stratified layers (290 km and\n 230 km, each 2 km thin — Cassini resolves individual haze layers at km\n scale), from organic SpaceEngine-generated cloud maps. The subtle broken\n limb strips that make the real Titan look organic rather than a clean\n airbrushed ball.\n\n![Titan from orbit](ksa-image:titan-orbit)\n![Titan's terminator](ksa-image:titan-terminator)\n![Titan's hazes](ksa-image:titan-hazes)\n\n### Triton & Pluto\n\n- **Derived N₂ Rayleigh** (Triton: Voyager 1.5 Pa @ 38 K, H = 14.8 km; Pluto:\n New Horizons 1.0 Pa @ 40 K, H = 19.2 km). Physically honest — and honestly\n near-invisible at the game's fixed exposure, like the real thing.\n- **Forward-scattering tholin haze** (the visible component of both\n atmospheres): Pluto's fractal aggregates at g = 0.85 give ~1900× more\n brightness forward than back — invisible at full phase, then the iconic\n New Horizons blue ring ignites as you swing behind the planet. Triton's\n smaller particles (g = 0.55, ~40×) do the same more subtly, matching\n Voyager's forward-geometry haze detections.\n- **Stratified haze bands**: the New Horizons gravity-wave layers, modulated\n into the haze density and rendered by a per-pixel march so the forward-\n scattered crescent shows stacked, broken, drifting layers — hash-salted for\n irregular spacing, dropped bands and varied widths, and animated (slow\n rotation + cloud-like formation/dissipation, sim-linked). Triton gets the same\n treatment on its thinner forward-scattering haze.\n- **Triton's condensate clouds**: patchy N₂-ice wisps at 4–6.5 km.\n\n![Triton from orbit](ksa-image:triton-orbit)\n![Pluto's limb and hazes](ksa-image:pluto-hazes)\n\n## Install\n\nRequires [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap). Each release zip is\nnamed with the KSA build it was tested on (`RealAtmospheres-v-ksa.zip`).\n\n### With a mod manager (easiest)\n\nIn [Borea](https://github.com/KSAModding), install Real Atmospheres from the mod\nlist. It installs the StarMap loader for you, unpacks the mod into the active\ninstance and enables it, so there is nothing to place by hand. Note that a manager\nkeeps the game's user data (mods, `manifest.toml`, `settings.toml`, saves, logs) in\nits own instance folder rather than `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency`.\n\n### By hand\n\n1. Install StarMap and run the game once via `StarMap.Loader.exe`.\n2. Extract the zip into `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\`, so you\n end up with `mods\\RealAtmospheres\\RealAtmospheres.dll`. The folder must be\n named exactly `RealAtmospheres` (KSA uses the folder name as the mod id).\n3. **Enable it.** On the next launch KSA finds the folder and adds it to\n `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\manifest.toml`, but always\n **disabled**. Close the game and change its entry to:\n\n ```toml\n [[mods]]\n id = \"RealAtmospheres\"\n enabled = true\n ```\n\n4. Launch through StarMap. The log lists `found mod 'RealAtmospheres'` when it\n is active.

The csproj only references `StarMap.API.dll` and `0Harmony.dll`\n(set `StarMapDir` to your StarMap folder); all game access is via reflection.\n\n## How it works\n\n- `[StarMapBeforeMain]` runs before the game's `Main` and applies anchored text\n transforms (idempotent — a hand-patched install passes through unchanged) to\n fresh copies of the stock files, rebuilt at every launch:\n `Content\\Core\\Shaders\\**` into `ShadowContent\\Core\\Shaders\\` in the mod folder,\n and `Astronomicals.xml`, `SolSystem.xml` and `SolSystemDense.xml` into\n `mods\\_RealSharedShadow\\Core\\` (the leading underscore makes KSA's mod loader\n skip that folder).\n- Harmony prefixes on `KSA.Mod.LoadAssetBundles`/`LoadEditorTagDefinitions`\n swap the Core mod's `Astronomicals.xml` assets entry for the shadow copy's\n absolute path, and prefixes on `LoadSystems`/`PrepareSystems` do the same for\n the Sol system templates. (The generic `XmlLoader.Load` is deliberately left alone:\n patching a shared generic instantiation hijacks every other `T`.)

No game files are\nmodified and no admin rights are needed: at launch the mod builds patched\nshadow copies of the relevant Core content in the mods folder and uses Harmony\nto redirect the game's file reads into them. The shadow is rebuilt from the\ncurrent game files at every launch, and if an update changes an XML anchor the\naffected patch is skipped gracefully (stock look until the mod is updated).\nShader patches are more fragile: a game update that reworks the atmosphere\nshaders can stop them compiling, so check the release's tested game build.\n\n## What it changes\n\n### Mars\n\n- **Rayleigh scattering** derived from real composition (95% CO₂ at 6.1 mbar):\n faint, blue, λ⁻⁴.\n- **Dust as the colour engine**: bhmie-derived Mie coefficients (red-heavy\n scattering spectrum), 9 km well-mixed scale height — the sky colour now comes\n from real dust optics, not a painted tint.\n- **Mie-theory dust phase function** (Level 2 of Schneegans et al. 2024): the\n *exact* per-angle Mie phase function from a bhmie solution for\n feldspar+hematite Martian dust, baked as a 361-sample lookup table in\n `AtmosphereFunctions.glsl` (no Henyey–Greenstein approximation) and selected by\n a sentinel asymmetry value. Produces the physically-exact blue sun halo.\n- **Double-exponential dust density**: a compact, capped dust layer (Schneegans)\n across all the atmosphere shaders, so the sunset forward-glow is controlled by\n the real dust vertical profile rather than an artificial limiter — the\n Curiosity-style blue sunset, tamed but brilliant.\n- **MarsCirrus layer**: high-altitude (22–29 km) water-ice clouds — polar hoods\n and equatorial wisps, 2D + volumetric, from an 8k source map.\n\n![Mars from orbit](ksa-image:mars-orbit)\n![Mars's north pole](ksa-image:mars-north-pole)\n![Mars's dust scattering](ksa-image:mars-surface-dust)\n![Mars with clouds overhead](ksa-image:mars-clouds)\n![Mars's blue sunset](ksa-image:mars-sunset)\n\n### Venus\n\n- **Composition-true dense CO₂ Rayleigh** (×53 Earth surface density), plus a\n blue-selective absorber low in the atmosphere that drives a progressively\n murkier yellow descent to a Venera-matching dark surface — the \"fog\" emerges\n from real multiple scattering and aerial perspective, no fake fog term. (The\n famous dark UV markings come from Venus's *real* \"unknown UV absorber\", which\n actually sits high at the cloud tops — those are carried by the cloud texture,\n not this low-altitude atmospheric term, which models the sub-cloud murk.)\n\n![Venus from orbit](ksa-image:venus-orbit)\n![Venus's thick fog](ksa-image:venus-surface)\n\n### Jupiter\n\n- **Composition-derived H₂/He Rayleigh** (×0.31 Earth) at the true 25 km scale\n height — a razor-thin blue limb over the cloud tops, Juno-style.\n- **Cloud decks rescaled to reality**: lower deck −25 to +15 km, main deck from\n 15 km with storm structures 10–96 km tall, densities and raymarching rescaled\n to preserve opacity and detail. Orbit-transition altitudes rescaled to match.\n\n![Jupiter's clouds](ksa-image:jupiter-low)\n\n### Saturn\n\n- **Above-haze Rayleigh**: a faint λ⁻⁴ blue limb (the deep atmosphere is hidden\n beneath the high haze), a thin gentle haze layer, and a pale-gold methane\n chromophore. Physically-derived 52 km scale height (Saturn's low gravity\n makes it puffy).\n- **Volumetric clouds** (Jupiter-style, stock Saturn had none): 3D banded cloud\n structure with towers, coverage taken from the planet's own banding and colour\n sampled from its diffuse map, so the clouds match the surface. How high a column\n builds follows the map's brightness, bright cloud being fresh ice carried up,\n so the pale bands stand roughly 37 km above the dark ones.\n- **Higher-resolution surface map** — 2048/face, up from stock 1024.\n\n![Saturn's clouds](ksa-image:saturn-low)\n\n### Uranus & Neptune\n\n- **Methane red-absorber** (in the ozone slot) is the colour engine: moderate\n for Uranus's pale cyan — its thick photochemical haze mutes it — and stronger\n for Neptune's deep blue, whose clearer atmosphere lets the colour show. A thin\n above-haze λ⁻⁴ Rayleigh limb and a gentle haze sit on top.\n- **Volumetric clouds** (Jupiter-style, neither had any in stock): 3D cloud\n structure with towers, coverage from the planet's banding and colour sampled\n from its diffuse map. Cloud-top height follows the map's brightness, so\n Neptune's white wisps ride about 26 km above its dark lanes. Subtler on\n featureless Uranus, more defined on Neptune.\n- **Higher-resolution surface maps** — 2048/face, up from stock 512.\n\n![Uranus's clouds](ksa-image:uranus-low)\n![Neptune's clouds](ksa-image:neptune-low)\n\n### Titan\n\n- **Stratified haze bands**: the layered upper hazes are modulated into the\n actual scattering medium (Rayleigh density warped into denser/thinner shells),\n not painted on — so limb glow, phase and transmittance are all physically\n correct. A per-pixel limb march gives them organic, broken, undulating,\n region-varying structure — the horizontal detail the symmetric atmosphere LUT\n can't hold — and they slowly rotate around Titan's spin axis and reshape over\n time (sim-linked: pausing freezes them, time-warp speeds them up). Confined to\n high altitude above the tholin deck, over a smooth thick lower haze, matching\n Cassini limb imagery closely enough to be hard to tell from a photo.\n- **Detached haze laminae**: two barely-visible stratified layers (290 km and\n 230 km, each 2 km thin — Cassini resolves individual haze layers at km\n scale), from organic SpaceEngine-generated cloud maps. The subtle broken\n limb strips that make the real Titan look organic rather than a clean\n airbrushed ball.\n\n![Titan from orbit](ksa-image:titan-orbit)\n![Titan's terminator](ksa-image:titan-terminator)\n![Titan's hazes](ksa-image:titan-hazes)\n\n### Triton & Pluto\n\n- **Derived N₂ Rayleigh** (Triton: Voyager 1.5 Pa @ 38 K, H = 14.8 km; Pluto:\n New Horizons 1.0 Pa @ 40 K, H = 19.2 km). Physically honest — and honestly\n near-invisible at the game's fixed exposure, like the real thing.\n- **Forward-scattering tholin haze** (the visible component of both\n atmospheres): Pluto's fractal aggregates at g = 0.85 give ~1900× more\n brightness forward than back — invisible at full phase, then the iconic\n New Horizons blue ring ignites as you swing behind the planet. Triton's\n smaller particles (g = 0.55, ~40×) do the same more subtly, matching\n Voyager's forward-geometry haze detections.\n- **Stratified haze bands**: the New Horizons gravity-wave layers, modulated\n into the haze density and rendered by a per-pixel march so the forward-\n scattered crescent shows stacked, broken, drifting layers — hash-salted for\n irregular spacing, dropped bands and varied widths, and animated (slow\n rotation + cloud-like formation/dissipation, sim-linked). Triton gets the same\n treatment on its thinner forward-scattering haze.\n- **Triton's condensate clouds**: patchy N₂-ice wisps at 4–6.5 km.\n\n![Triton from orbit](ksa-image:triton-orbit)\n![Pluto's limb and hazes](ksa-image:pluto-hazes)\n\n## Install\n\nRequires [StarMap](https://github.com/StarMapLoader/StarMap). Each release zip is\nnamed with the KSA build it was tested on (`RealAtmospheres-v-ksa.zip`).\n\n### With a mod manager (easiest)\n\nIn [Borea](https://github.com/KSAModding), install Real Atmospheres from the mod\nlist. It installs the StarMap loader for you, unpacks the mod into the active\ninstance and enables it, so there is nothing to place by hand. Note that a manager\nkeeps the game's user data (mods, `manifest.toml`, `settings.toml`, saves, logs) in\nits own instance folder rather than `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency`.\n\n### By hand\n\n1. Install StarMap and run the game once via `StarMap.Loader.exe`.\n2. Extract the zip into `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\mods\\`, so you\n end up with `mods\\RealAtmospheres\\RealAtmospheres.dll`. The folder must be\n named exactly `RealAtmospheres` (KSA uses the folder name as the mod id).\n3. **Enable it.** On the next launch KSA finds the folder and adds it to\n `Documents\\My Games\\Kitten Space Agency\\manifest.toml`, but always\n **disabled**. Close the game and change its entry to:\n\n ```toml\n [[mods]]\n id = \"RealAtmospheres\"\n enabled = true\n ```\n\n4. Launch through StarMap. The log lists `found mod 'RealAtmospheres'` when it\n is active. To uninstall, delete the `RealAtmospheres` folder and the\n `_RealSharedShadow` folder the mod creates next to it; KSA removes the\n manifest entry itself.\n\n## Building from source\n\n`deploy.ps1` builds the .NET 10 class library and installs it into your mods\nfolder; `package.ps1 [-Version x.y.z] [-GameBuild vYYYY.M.D.NNNN]` builds the\nplayer zip in `dist\\`. Both ship exactly the assets listed in `release-files.txt`\n(everything else in `assets\\` is a converter source or stale output). The csproj only references `StarMap.API.dll` and `0Harmony.dll`\n(set `StarMapDir` to your StarMap folder); all game access is via reflection.\n\n## How it works\n\n- `[StarMapBeforeMain]` runs before the game's `Main` and applies anchored text\n transforms (idempotent — a hand-patched install passes through unchanged) to\n fresh copies of the stock files, rebuilt at every launch:\n `Content\\Core\\Shaders\\**` into `ShadowContent\\Core\\Shaders\\` in the mod folder,\n and `Astronomicals.xml`, `SolSystem.xml` and `SolSystemDense.xml` into\n `mods\\_RealSharedShadow\\Core\\` (the leading underscore makes KSA's mod loader\n skip that folder).\n- Harmony prefixes on `KSA.Mod.LoadAssetBundles`/`LoadEditorTagDefinitions`\n swap the Core mod's `Astronomicals.xml` assets entry for the shadow copy's\n absolute path, and prefixes on `LoadSystems`/`PrepareSystems` do the same for\n the Sol system templates. (The generic `XmlLoader.Load` is deliberately left alone:\n patching a shared generic instantiation hijacks every other `T`.)

The catalogue file is now CC BY-SA 4.0; the code stays MIT.\n- Starbursts rebuilt from a simulation of the human eye (Ritschel et al., 2009): about a thousand fine needles with coloured fringes.\n- One starburst model for every source: needles grow with brightness, and Jupiter, Sirius and the brightest stars now show small starbursts.\n- The game's Threshold Bloom and Global Bloom no longer bury the starbursts or put grey halos around bright stars and planets.\n\n### Fixed\n\n- The Sun's starburst showed through clouds, even from Venus's surface, and stayed white at sunset. It now dims with the clouds and takes the colour of the sunlight reaching you.\n- Stars and planets were dimmed by the atmosphere twice, by most of a magnitude at 10° up.\n- Coloured stars and planets were drawn up to 0.6 magnitudes too faint.\n- Planets' halos and starbursts were drawn too faint.\n- Up close, the Sun's sprite showed around its 3D sphere as a bright ring. It now shrinks into the sphere as the sphere fades in.\n- Switching the stars off in the settings also removed the Sun.\n\nInstall with Borea, or follow the [README](https://github.com/Brimfyr/RealStars#installation).\n\n### Credits\n\n- Star catalogue built from [AT-HYG](https://www.astronexus.com/projects/at-hyg) v3.2 by David Nash (CC BY-SA 4.0), with positions from the Hipparcos Catalogue (ESA 1997, ESA SP-1200), retrieved from [VizieR](https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/) (CDS, Strasbourg), catalogue I/239.

loaded solar system.\n\n* Bodies are grouped by category, with moons listed under their parent body\n* Orbit lines can be toggled for a single body, a group or a whole category\n* Each body has a page of stats\n\nForum: https://forums.ahwoo.com/forums/kitten-space-agency/mod-releases/compendium.647/\n\nSpaceDock: https://spacedock.info/mod/4074/Compendium\n\n(MIT license)\n\n\nDeltaVMap v1.2.6 by Maxi\n\nAn interactive delta-v subway map and transfer-window planner. The map is built from the loaded solar system, so it works with stock and modded systems without setup.\n\n* The map is centered on your current body, and transfers use Hohmann calculations\n* Route planning shows the delta-v for each leg and compares the total with your vehicle's delta-v\n* Transfer windows show the optimal phase angle, the current phase and time to the next window\n* Open it from View → Delta-V Map in flight, or from its tab in the editor\n\nForum: https://forums.ahwoo.com/threads/deltavmap.978/\n\nSpaceDock: https://spacedock.info/mod/4294/DeltaVMap\n\n(MIT license)\n\n\nAdvanced Flight Computer v0.8.0 by Maxi\n\nManeuver planning, burn execution and closed-loop guidance.\n\n* Quick tools for common maneuvers, plus flyby targeting (hyperbolic orbits supported)\n* Burns can be split across multiple passes, or run on RCS only\n* Automatic staging, including spent boosters\n* Powered guidance for ascent, boostback and landing\n\nForum: https://forums.ahwoo.com/threads/advanced-flight-computer.783/\n\nSpaceDock: https://spacedock.info/mod/4253/AdvancedFlightComputer\n\n(MIT license)\n\n\nRequirements\n* KSA 2026.9.10.5438 or newer\n* StarMap loader 0.4.6 or newer\n* Recommended: ModMenu\n* Optional: KittenExtensions (enables some AFC features)\n\nInstallation\n1.
