================================================================================ KORTEX 1.0.0 - PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION SUITE
================================================================================

[SYSTEM_INFO]

Target Engine: Kerbal Space Program Compatibility: v1.12.5 (Windows x64) Mod Type: Background CPU & Memory Optimization Plugin License: MIT Open Source


[MODULE_01] // COREKINETICS

  • GARBAGE_COLLECTION_SMOOTHING Optimizes the timing and efficiency of background data allocation, spacing out engine tasks to mitigate sudden memory spikes and reduce GC-induced micro-stutters.

  • BACKGROUND_TASK_DEALLOCATION Dynamic-throttles low-priority background calculations when they are not actively required by the current flight phase, freeing up physical CPU cycles for flight physics and collision calculations.


[MODULE_02] // PERFORMANCEFLUX

  • SMART_UI_REFRESH_RATES Introduces dynamic polling for staging and resource display systems. Instead of redrawing interface components every single physics tick, it throttles updates to a human-readable interval.

  • REDUNDANT_CALL_ELIMINATION Bypasses unneeded layout updates when UI panels are minimized or hidden, significantly reducing main-thread overhead during high-part-count missions.


[DEPLOYMENT_SEQUENCE]

[01] Download and extract 'Kortex-v1.0.0.zip'. [02] Locate the 'GameData' directory inside the extracted files. [03] Copy the entire 'Kortex' folder. [04] Paste directory directly into target system path: -> [KSP_root_directory/GameData/] [05] Verify localized binaries are present: -> GameData/Kortex/0Harmony.dll -> GameData/Kortex/CoreKinetics.dll -> GameData/Kortex/PerformanceFlux.dll [06] Initialize Kerbal Space Program executable.


[ENVIRONMENTAL_COMPATIBILITY]

  • MODPACK_STATUS: Fully transparent execution alongside Stock or heavily altered installations (Steam or Standalone deployments).

  • HARDWARE_NOTE: This software resolves CPU-bound and UI thread bottlenecks. Performance drops encountered at specific planetary altitudes while rendering heavy visual frameworks (e.g., Scatterer, EVE) are inherently GPU-bound. Kortex maintains physical simulation and interface stability regardless of visual overhead.
