Said about Orbiter as an alternative
In no way is orbiter a KSP clone... it's a realistic simulator in continuous development for 21 years and counting. Orbiter is a flight simulator, not a game. When KSP just doesn't satisfy you anymore and you can calculate Hohmann transfers in your head, try this.
looks like it i think it's a clone
