Same problem. I have noticed the logs have an erroneous file path for the ship saves. At least these files and folders are not in my local files after a fresh install with no mods. The following logs do contain mods, but it didn't matter when I tried it with them removed.

I enter career. Build simple ship. Name ship. Click save, click launch. Game freezes and never gives crash report.

#4 Updated by jbi1031 over 9 years ago

I have fixed the problem by adding folders Ships/SPH and Ships/VAB to my career file. It seems the new careers do not create this file path.

#5 Updated by trikeboy over 9 years ago

I was having no problems With KSP on my Macbook Pro until I made the mistake of updating OSX to 10.10 "Yosemite"

Same sort of crashes as reported above in and out of the VAB. Also get crashes when nearing the ground for landing on various planets (kerbin, Mun, Duna I have experienced it on all of these)

The logs do show that the required folders are indeed missing or inaccessible. While I am unable to confirm this personally, the supporting comments and logs are enough.
This will be forwarded for attention.

It would appear that there may have been an issue with Steam on Mac OS X.

"UPDATE: This client was re-released on Nov 25 for Mac OS X to fix a major issue with game libraries appearing to be empty." http://store.steampowered.com/news/?feed=steam_client

Could you please confirm that that you have this Steam update, and that it applies the correct path?

I don't have steam. I've downloaded it from the website.

Then it would appear to be two possibly separate issues clouded by similar results and an update to the OS.

From the provided logs the path is certainly incomplete, and relate to a Steam install.

Could you please provide your log?

On OSX, the log can be found as Player.log in /Library/Logs/Unity/Player.log

A full guide to bug reporting can be found here for your information.

#12 Updated by dcw_damon over 9 years ago

Here is a log when KSP (sort of) crashes.

#13 Updated by Squelch over 9 years ago

Thanks for uploading, The end of the log certainly records the crash which is good. It is a different issue and the cause isn't immediately clear.

Could you please elaborate on the steps to reproduce? Are you able to save the vessel before leaving the VAB? Can you load a stock vessel and launch? The more information you can give us, the easier it will be to identify the problem.

As this confirms there are two issues in play, could jbi1031 please raise a new issue if the Steam problem persists without manual intervention? Thanks.

#14 Updated by dcw_damon over 9 years ago

When i re-install ksp first. So I have a clean install. I went to the VAB to make a vessel. After a few minutes making one (57 parts) I can save it. But when I go to the launch pad it won't load (Sometimes (1 out of 6)).
A few weeks after this bug report I've updated my OSX to 10.10.1. This fix some issues duo load. But sometimes i got this random crash for no reason.

For stock vessels it's the same kind of problem.

#15 Updated by Squelch over 9 years ago

Could you please clarify that the nature of the crash has changed from always to sometimes since the original report? Is the log you provide from the most recent crash? The story it tells is different from your last account.

On reflection, it might be better to start a new issue considering we have a mix of two different ones here. We need as much information as possible and clear steps to reproduce.

Please do read and follow the most excellent guide found here

I have similar symtoms:
After entering the VAB, Hangar, Lounchpad etc. the game freezes, I get the "weel of death" but the music is still playing.
I tried to reinstall, tested a fresh install with new user, deleted the Saved Application States ect. always the same.

Yosemite 10.10.1
KSP direct download (no steam)

It would appear that KSPAPIE is having problems according to the log provided.

We are unable to support plugins and addons on this tracker, and several of the logs uploaded here would indicate that there are mods present. To rule out all possible variables and mod interaction, could all reporters please verify the same problems are occurring in a mod free game?

Given that we appear to have a mix of different problems, and that mods cannot be ruled out as a potential cause, I think it prudent that this issue is closed. Please continue to add new or additional information to existing issues for KSP 0.90 which is the current release at this time.
