This page will help you install everything you need to work your on Unity.
Installing Unity

- Click on “Install this version with Unity Hub”.
Initializing the Unity project
As the Unity project is very large (~4 GB), we will use it for all our mods.

For a quick presentation of the Unity interface: https://luxstice.notion.site/Learning-Unity-faf0ab10f24c4925bf4b51a997a41666.
Configure the Unity project
Importing ThunderKit
- Follow the instructions on this page : https://luxstice.notion.site/Installing-ThunderKit-7e00f13efe804f12a31a9f31d7f9fd6e.
Importing Unity KSP tools
- Download the package here : https://github.com/SpaceWarpDev/KSP2UnityTools/releases.

Without this manipulation, Unity generates bundles with an ID calculated from the project name. Since we are using the same project for multiple mods, there will be a name conflict for the standard shader that Unity incorporates into all addressables. Using the GUID of the default group will help avoid collisions (you will need to remember to make the mod group the default group).
