  1. Leave him there for a bit, use other craft to get science from Kerbal and orbit and returns from Mun/Minimus until you have the science to build something bigger to pick up Jeb.
  2. Very useful App but can the next version please remember window positions?
  3. If you want to fire a cheap and simple round at a target in space why not go the whole hog and use a rail gun? The ammo is very low tech and all you need is the means to generate electricity to fire it.
  4. There are some small solid boosters that can be set to go off with the decouple to power the old tanks away. Seperatrons
  5. Considering how 'keen' some supporters of this game are I am a little surprised that there isn't a third party version of the SpacePort that actually works better and is easier to find what you are looking for.
  6. OK thanks (30mins rather than 30secs). Running borderless in HD now.
  7. Very minor feature that could probably be added easily. 1. Borderless 'windows' mode - on multi-monitor systems it's nice to have a browser open whilst playing the game without the window hiing when you click outside on fullscreen. (I'm surprised this isn't there already) 2. Custom fields for windows size - I know you can do this via a config file but if you then open the settings page and change anything you need to go back to the config page and reset it again. (I've had a quick scan but can't see these mentioned, so now expect someone to point it out 30 secs after I post)
  8. Just a general post to say how much improved things seem since I was last messing with the game. I bought it about a year ago and messed with it for a while but soon lost interest due to too confusion about what all these bits were supposed to do. But a couple of days ago I thought I'd try again and updated to 0.23 and what a difference. Started the Career mode and started making ships with only the parts I had which made things so much more straight forward. My ships started getting higher and higher, until one ship got into an elliptical orbit that took it outside the orbit of the moon and then nearly hit it on the return leg. I tried a burn to get back home and failed, this kerbal is now floating in space just inside the orbit of home around the sun. Following this I finally managed to get into a stable orbit and come back home safely. The Career mode is what this game needed with lots of little goals that make sense and I can now choose which way to proceed. My only real issue with this mode is that I was expecting to have to start with unmanned rockets like the early WW2 rocket pieces rather than your first launch actually involving sticking a person on top of it, but that would only add a single extra science skill at the start. Keep up the good work.
