Hey mgershovich,

We might need a bit more information. Please check out the thread below. It's hard to guess what might be causing it and it helps us out if you can give some more details. (Pictures and a log file might be the best here.)

I'm going to guess that you're using something like a science lab or a hitchiker can. Those things don't show the Kerbal's pictures in the bottom right of the screen. So they can sometimes look empty. Click on the hatch to see who's inside.

Welcome to the forums!

Hi. Tanks, Claw.

No, the crew just disappears around the time I get close to leaving the atmosphere. See here.

Version is 0.24.2 and is unmodded. This problem occurs in any new or saved game.

Here's the log file.

Here are the system specs.

Thanks a lot,

MG

There's not enough to that log file

At no time in that log did any flight occur. In fact the scene never ever changed to Flight at all

Line 5437: [HighLogic]: =========================== Scene Change : From LOADING to MAINMENU =====================

Line 5462: [HighLogic]: =========================== Scene Change : From MAINMENU to SPACECENTER =====================

Line 5585: [HighLogic]: =========================== Scene Change : From SPACECENTER to MAINMENU =====================

Line 5614: [HighLogic]: =========================== Scene Change : From MAINMENU to SETTINGS =====================

Line 5643: [HighLogic]: =========================== Scene Change : From SETTINGS to MAINMENU =====================

Make the problem happen again. As soon as the crew vanishes, exit to space center or revert the flight then exit to main menu and quit. Then grab your player.log (no copy; that file was a copy which probably means it was the wrong log)

Put that file in your dropbox and then post it here.

Edit #2

You are also not unmodded

Life Support mod.

Line 79: Non platform assembly: /Users/b0050940/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/Kerbal Space Program/GameData/LifeSupport/Plugins/LifeSupport.dll (this message is harmless)

Line 80: Non platform assembly: /Users/b0050940/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/Kerbal Space Program/GameData/LifeSupport/Plugins/RealTimeModules.dll (this message is harmless)

Line 81: Non platform assembly: /Users/b0050940/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/Kerbal Space Program/GameData/LifeSupport/Plugins/UnityGUIFramework.dll (this message is harmless)

Speculation (in the face of insufficient data)

You tried to remove a life support mod but left part of in there. The parts you removed contained any resources or life support parts. The plugin dll remains however and is killing your crew shortly after you pass 8km altitude. (which IRL is known as the death zone, so I'm guessing that mod has a cutoff point somewhere after 8km at which point it starts making checks for crew survival, which fail)

Ah, ok. I reinstalled and didn't realize that was a mod. My bad. I removed it and all works fine. Thanks for your help.
