The development of Kerbal Space Program 2 was terminated prematurely, just at the time when the major bugs were removed, but before the application would provide significant benefits over version 1.
With mods, Kerbal Space Program 1 can provide the same visual quality with less bugs and better performance. As the development of version 1 was completed at a planned state, the application is stable, and will not change anymore. This simplifies the work of modders, who otherwise would need to constantly update their mods to keep up with the changes in the application code. This provides the ideal platform for the modding community to freely enhance the game for the benefit of everyone.
