I like blue ink. I can go to the settings menu from pressing escape in the actual game but the main menu as titled maim menu has no such option. When you say 'input' tab please explain because that means nothing at all to me.

How do you do that?

Before the uprage mod I could have my rover wheels controled by going to docking mode and doing the normal direction w,s,a,d, keys. If I do this now the thing will rotate at the same time. Obviously this is a bit of an issue. My Minimus fuel base really needs a forklift truck and it will need to move about and rotate as separate things. The I,K,J,L keys don't work either. I think they would be the best option but.... I was able to get 60 mps out of my old Mun rover and need to be able to keep the gyros on to do that sort of racing about.

Does the fact that I am playing this via steam which means that I will be unable to change any files my end make a difference?

Right. I have attempted to paste the latest fail and now the paste box will not hold it as it's too long. Which end of the report do you want? - - - Updated - - - And paste bin will not let me log in so here is the end stuff. Is that any good? Saving Achievements Tree...

Not yet but do I will start a new career and see what happens.... 2 hours later...

I have tried uninstalling and re-starting from scratch. No joy. What permissions are er..... ? This forum keeps asking if I want to leave the page "Any information may be lost" when I have not typed in anything. Is that related?

Cool. We need more of that so we can build space industries.

OK. I'll restart and do it as soon as it crashes. There are saved games which have saved in a crash mode do you want them? Or do I need to start a new one from scratch or will one which does a little then crashes do? http://pastebin.com/GnzMyfh7 That is after about 1minute of messing about in the space center. Still got a vast file. I shut down steam and restarted before that. The screen shot will not upload to steam, I think that is a steam issue. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100009255243528&sk=photos

There needs to be an end product of space exploration. Planting a few flags is not enough at all. There will be in the real world. Mining expensive stuff will be the first of a long list of things that are done in space to make a profit. H3 and what on Earth are rare minerals such as the stuff they use to make the best batteries will be the earliest of these materials to be brought back and sold. Having the kit to do this sort of stuff in KSP is very important. It will allow the whole thing to get beyond the completion of contracts and the gaining of prestige. Actual profitable industry! Once such things are operating, perhaps even before, the use of near Earth objects as sources of fuel or at least reaction mass can be highly useful. Big thrust using stuff you did not have to get up there in the first place. The development of industry up there is also important. Some sort of building of an assemble hanger with the use of some simple parts made up there such as big cylinders which will be the bulk fuel tanks of the ship. The complex reaction wheels or whatever will probably have to be made on Earth for a long time but one day... Ideally this would be on a shared map. Well, maybe shared with your friends or competition group... or something....

OK, Done that. http://pastebin.com/ Tim_the_Plumber1 is the title I have given it. Ah. hang on what's that switch. Try this; http://pastebin.com/p40HQZX0 The verify game thing said that everything was fine.

OK, The link will take you to a screen shot.http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfile...=398161728#_=_ This is of a locked screen which will not go anywhere much except sometimes it goes to a failure type with another box with green writing in it. If you can go to the steam site there are lots of various bugged out screen shots. Is it me or steam or what? I am very frustrated because your game is superb at the complex stuff but the whole menu bit on the ground seems to have been forgotten for the career mode especially. Would it be a good idea for you to go into steam on my account? You could experience it all then? What would an out_put_log_text look like when I have had to use control alt delete to get out? KSP_win\KSP_Data\output_log.txt -OR- KSP_win64\KSP_x64_DATA\output_log.txt Is it at all possible for me to get to these if I am using steam? http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198162300851/screenshots/?appid=220200&sort=oldestfirst&browsefilter=myfiles&view=imagewall

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=398161728#_=_ - - - Updated - - - You have taken money for this.

I am on steam I cannot work out how the .... you get a digital image from steam to anything else. My name on steam is TIMGRINDLEY. They are set for public viewing. Is it just me or is steam the issue?

Just up loaded 2 more crashed pics. What joy!!! I paid for this game. It would take you 1 day to go through the space center bit and sort this crap out. - - - Updated - - - How do i get pictures from Steam to here then!!

While you are at it, the save ship does not work. - - - Updated - - - I have just had another of the just won't do anything crashes. I posted the screen shot to public access on steam. With the above caption.

Bug. When I plant a flag at the base and then want to finish the mission it won't. It did allow me to revert the mission but that took me back to a previous save which was not an auto save, they don't appear to work. It went to an hour earlier. Steam, the platform you don't upgrade like the free ones.

Thanks.

Hi, I'm playing in steam and F1 or F2 or F3 don't work. At least not in the situation I am currently in. I have flown my first plane around over Kerbal. Done it for an hour or so of real time. Splashed down and it won't allow me to finish the mission and recover the craft. I would like to take a screen shot for you but no joy. Won't abort, go to space center or anything. Just bobs about looking sad. Is steam totally new to you and have you loaded a very old copy of the game into steam or something? P.S. F12 takes screen shots, it says, but I am now locked in the IVA mode which seems to be utterly useless and un-exitable so no real help and I can't get to the files because I'm lock in.....

How do I do that? I'm not that great with these computer things. Better with a hammer.

Hi, I am playing on steam and often I will do a contract that will light up green in all categories but refuses to complete.

How do you sort out the order that stuff activates in? I seem to have trouble getting things to act in the right order. I'm on steam if that makes a difference. P.S. It should be separators!

Have you got any other things on your capsule? I seem to have a similar trouble. If I have a radio or something attached to the actual re-entry vehicle It does not want to actually finish the flight. I'm, on steam.

How about having an option to post your mission's results in terms of flags on things or space stations built etc onto an official map world thingy. That would allow us to all have our flags on the Mun or what ever. Filters would allow you to see just your friends flags etc. Also having resource mining of moons, planets and asteroids. Then allow people to build space stations where new fuel can be brought fro money and this gets put into the builders account. Possible allow some component buying or building there as well? Perhaps that is the max maps thing?

I have started and got as far as trying to upgrade the lunch pad. Any attempt to do so results in not being able to get into the buildings, mostly the vehicle hanger and it them freezes. Mouse still moves but no actual game. My mates seem not to have this problem. ARGH!!!! How am I going to show them how it's done with this happening???? Any suggestions? I am using steam if that helps.
