Curveball Anders

Mine is safe back at home, ready to try sneak on to the next flight and acting mission commander at my space station. All due to a minor cloning accident using crew transfer ...

The analog gauges and sliders are absolutely lovely, and the whole concept is a winner. Just image how the controls and panels on Mercury/Apollo crafts looked like ...

Graphic designers, 3D modellers, audio designers, content/gameplay designers make up the majority of devs in any studio or development office. The heroic coding cowboys are almost always a minority (but most studios are yelling for more, and better educated, programmers). This is of course even more a fact if you base your game on an existing engine or framework.

tl;dr Glitch in or with Crew Transfers allows for cloning kerbonauts. /tl;dr I set out to do a simple science hogging mission around Mün. Mk2 3 crew pod with a jr science lab tacked on to the manoeuvre stage. I stuck to my plan and kept out three heroes in the command module until in a stable orbit @ 30k around Mün, and then transferred Jeb & Bob (Bill (Anders) is a personal hero of mine so he was left in command). Using Crew Transfer to simplify the crew tranfers. Ran some EVA's (with Bill) and some other science stuff and then it was time for more EVA's to collect data from the modules. For some reason, that I think is a bug/glitch, I was able to do the EVA with Jeb, who was in the science lab. After collecting the data I had him store his data in the command module and then board it, and this is where the odd things start. I now had Bill and Jeb in the command module and Bob and Jeb in the science module ... Which created a bit of an ethical dilemma, since I only had resources to land the command pod back on Kerbin, with space for 3 kerbonauts, and now I had 4 kerbonauts to care for. In the end I managed to rendezvous with my KISS (Kerbin Inadequate Space Station) and deposit one unit of Jeb there, before landing safely. So now I have two Jebs after a transporter accident, anyone knows if he has a second name?

Should be renamed to Songs of Distant Kerbal of course. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFdfWdpkGGs
