Kerbal Space Program fans have a lot to look forward to with the next update to the Steam Early Access Game. Contracts and budget systems are among the list of big changes coming to the game some time in the near future.

* Contracts:
You probably know about this one already. The Mission Control Facility at the space center now lets you take on contracts to earn Funds, Science and Reputation.

* Budget Essentials:
Career Mode is greatly expanded now by the addition of Funds and Reputation. Funds are required to launch vessels, and reputation is earned (and lost) by doing contracts (or failing them). In this release, your reputation is already used to regulate the level and amount of contracts offered you. Lower reputation means fewer and less prestigious contract offers, while high reputation means more and more ambitious proposals.

You can check out additional info about the upcoming update at the official Kerbal Space Program dev blog. Learn more about the game at https://www.kerbalspaceprogram.com/.

Kerbal Space Program is currently available on Steam Early Access.
