How to see Biomes on the map
It's probably something simple I'm missing, but in the Beta than ever preview vid, the biomes are displayed in a map mode. I don't see an option for this in the tracking center. Any help?

ALT+F12, I believe.

Isn't there a non-cheaty way like a new satelite module? I mean that might actually make satelites useful for a change...

Not a stock method. A few mods will do what you are wanting and make satelites fairly useful as well.

This.

Scansat is my fav for mapping, but I don't know if it's working with the new update at this time. It allows satelites to basically make maps showing various data, including biomes.

KerbalStuff fixes the Curse problem.

ScanSAT is great for that, but it's not working yet with 0.90

Check out CKAN[forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com], makes installing mods a breeze (downloads from kerbalstuff, github and some other sites so it's much better than the Curse) and it never, ever tries to install a mod that's not compatible with your KSP :) SCANsat is in there, but currently not in a 0.90-compatible version.

You definitely want to check out the available mods for KSP. They turn an already great game into a mind-blowingly epic one. ScanSAT is just one of the many awesome mods out there.

And who actually uses Curse? You just drop the mod into the Gamedata directory... done.

Its too bad kerbalstuff was shut down becuase KSP stubbornly used curse instead of a dedicated kerbal space program mod website. I loveKSP but i really dont like that they did not swich to Kerbalstuff

Instead of Kerbalstuff check out spacedock.info now.
