Slant community chat on DiscoursePro This is not an autopilot
As opposed to MechJeb, which is considered "cheats". KER helps a ton by providing already available info in a very accessible manner.
Pro Shows important statistics when building crafts and in-flight
Shows important statistics when building crafts (mass, deltaV, thrust, ISP - while on Kerbin, in vacuum, or on other atmospheric bodies) and in-flight (all of the above + periapsis, apoapsis, orbital period, time to ap, time to pe and many many more).

Helps with design, flying, transfers, orbital encounters etc.
Pro Reduces texture memory use, including mod textures
All textures can be compressed & resized to save RAM. There are two modes of compression - basic and aggressive. Both compress to DXT and generate minimaps for all non-normal map textures, with aggressive mode having a max of 256x256 and basic mode having a max of 512x512 size for normal maps t...

Pro Change Object Size
This allows you to change the size of most objects to fit the thing you are trying to build. It makes everything very versatile.
Pro Prettifies the game
Adds city lights for Kerbin and adds clouds and better atmospheres to planets.
Pro Allows choosing only the wanted enhancements and skipping others
All unwanted plugins can be deleted from: GameData/EnvironmentalVisualEnhancements/Plugins
Con 8K textures don't work on Macs
Macs need to use low resolution textures.
Pro Automates some tasks, while still keeping you in charge
Even if you scoff at the idea of having the computer do maneuvers for you, there's still numerous other useful tools for manual flight.

The principal goal of KSP Interstellar is to expand Kerbal Space Program with interesting technologies and to provide a logical and compelling technological progression beginning with technologies that could have been available in the 1970s/1980s, then technologies that could be available within the next few years, progressing to technologies that may not be available for many decades, all the way out to speculative technologies that are physically reasonably but may or may not ever be realizable in practice.
Pro Let's you change textures
Lets you change textures for Kerbals to make them more realistic or just funner.
Con Some bugs and issues installing textures
Sometimes it bugs and the textures are a bit hard to install.
Pro Add reentry heating
As the craft comes in from outer space and into and through gases in the atmosphere it will get damaged by the heat. Mod includes heat shield for reentry.
Pro Adds g-force overloads
Crew can die from inability to cope with weight produced by acceleration.

Pro Improved Part management
The best way of keeping your parts organized and is supported by many mod developers
Pro Includes 6 subpacks
Includes 6 subpacks: Propulsion, Electrical, Construction, Solar, Spacecraft and Technology.
Pro A great selection of stock-like near future parts that blend well with other stock parts
It's a pack that doesn't really change the theme of ksp but it adds some new shapes and designs. NONE OF THEM ARE OVERPOWERED
Pro Helps with landing the spacecraft
You can use ScanSat to determine the slope of the surface you're landing on and avoid hills and other obstacles.
Pro Create maps
You can create detailed maps of every planet.
