Hyperdrive makes Kerbal Space Program load faster, use less memory, and fixes several of the game's leaks and hangs. It works on its own or with KSPCommunityFixes, and every feature can be switched off in the settings.

  • Faster loading: the main menu in 15.5 s instead of 46 s on the base game with both expansions, 88 s instead of 162 s with ~135 mods.
  • Big modpacks: when a single ModuleManager patch has an error, ModuleManager redoes all its patches at every start. Hyperdrive keeps its cache: 427 s instead of 744 s on a 295-mod RSS/RP-1 modpack.
  • Less memory: 3.0 GB instead of 5.3 GB in flight.
  • Fewer hangs: loads that used to get stuck (antivirus, Windows file locks, launch pad terrain with Parallax) go through, and several stock leaks are fixed.
  • Animated loading screens: 35 animations, random or your pick.

With KSPCommunityFixes, Hyperdrive leaves to KSPCF what it already does and adds the rest: 16 s instead of 25 s to the menu on the base game, 82 s instead of 96 s with ~135 mods.

Measured on a PC (i5-14600KF, RX 9070 XT, 32 GB, Windows 11) and a MacBook Air M4.
