Rob N Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 I've just started playing KSP and after just three flights have run out of pilots. Problem appears to be that I can't recover ships, and crew, that land remote from the space station. What am I missing? How do I rescue my pilots wha are bobbing along far out to sea??

James Kerman Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Welcome to the forum @Rob N! There are a few ways, if you are currently in command of a vessel that is landed or splashed down on kerbin you can move your cursor above the altitude indicator and you get the recovery option: Or if you click on the tracking station you should be able to see a list of your vessels on the left. Select one and click the recovery button: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob N Posted March 21, 2022 Author Share Posted March 21, 2022 Excellent. Worked a treat. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthgently Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Keep playing. You will have plenty of pilots, engineers, and scientists. Especially if you take every rescue contract you can. And of course recover your krew and vessels as described above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maria Sirona Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Hello there @Rob N, and welcome to the forums! Also, it is Space Center and not space station. Space stations are crewable things that stay in orbit like the ISS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KccSpaceCmd Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 what does one do when said option is greyed out? does this mean they are good as dead or do i just lack the tech to recover them ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't encountered that yet. Can you send a screenshot and also say whether or not it says the crew are still alive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must be on a different planet. You might have to mount a rescue mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
