In this post, i will introduce a interesting mod. KSP Serial IO Mod sends/receives data packets over the serial port, which should make it much easier for people wanting to build hardware for KSP but can’t be bothered with making plugins as well.
Compatible with KSP 0.90, versions 0.15 and older compatible with 0.23, 0.23.5, 0.24, 0.25
This plugin implements the following:
- Packeting of serialized C# structure for efficient communications including checksums
- Listing of available serial ports (only works on Windows PC, using registry hacks)
- Automatic handshake and detection of display COM port at 38400 Baud
- Bi-directional data transfer: control KSP from arduino (added in 0.13)
- Analogue axes control (added in 0.14)
