So... how do you force steam to make an update?

Is it really so bad that people need to ask about things like that? But do not worry! Devs see the problem and will discouss it at some point after the 0.24 release. I would say: Obviously they will.

Water? Seriously? You should get a raise.

Judging by the size of commits - they're still working on a small bug fixes. So... it might take anything between 5 minutes and 5 days (random number pulled out of my arse)

This brings up an obvious question: Where is India on Kerbin?

Hypetrain derails the server!

Timezones FTW. More strouts.

You're off. *kicks in the butt off the train* I really hope it's not some obscure political joke "awarding" their guerrilla for shooting down MH17.

Nah, that's nothing. In Poland they got the same, only not two minutes late, but rather forty minutes late. In a summer. In winter it turns into 8 hours. (but to be fair: At least their trains are cheap. In UK sometimes buying an airplane ticket is cheaper, lol)

That's basically what I did at work during last 3 days. lol

Strap on! Staff is here, means the station is near!

OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD! https://twitter.com/KerbalSpaceP/status/489837516972122112

Game is by far easier with new navball. I gave KSP a quick try around the period you did, 0.18, but gave up back then before even reaching 100km flight. Now? With new items and navball? I made it to the orbit in first or second flight with the noob mode on (aka. Sandbox). edit: ok, after giving it a though: I don't know which version was that. It used to be before nodes and indicators on a nav ball.

Sim City had a bankruptcy and you could be kicked out of the office.

Said by one of the most active people in that entire topic. I laughed.

Nope. I'm trying to point out that degradation is random - it's not a progress. You can say that, for example, after a year chances of permanent damage to the CPU will exceed 50%, but just as well your sat phone might get broken while still on an upper stage of the rocket. Rad-Hard computers are worth their price. That's why majority of cube sats run on them instead of things like Raspberry Pi, Arduino or smartphones. Yes, the demand for PhoneSats is going up, but: from zero you can only go up . And if you still think it's not a problem - read this and the remind yourself that people here wanted to transfer video down to the ground, not just pathetically low-res pictures. And that's the project supported by NASA, not some random people from a random forum.

More like: the current mode should become an easy mode, while what you call "hardcore" should be a default one.

FYI: Radiation doesn't work on the electronics in a way some of you think (or at least: I think that you think... ) Read this. Basically: If your electronics are not rad-hard then software that runs on them might crash in a first minute it gets into the thermosphere or it might run fine for weeks. It might be permanently damaged in a few minutes, or it might take many orbits till you won't be able to reboot it any more. It's more.... like a random numbers generator than a progress bar that has this magical "won't work anymore" point, only you don't know where. That's why satellites and probes have multiple computers (usually: 3 with 2 running identical operations), even if they are rad-hard. It's a lottery where the best thing you can do is decreasing chances for a failure.

ESA released a video of the comet showing more details - it's much easier now to see how exactly does it rotate: http://blogs.esa.int/rosetta/2014/07/17/the-dual-personality-of-comet-67pc-g/ Looks like it does have a poles, though I would say that these are the weirdest poles I ever seen - even weirder than these on KSP Moho.

Crap. I loved to look around the KSP and see all the wrecks from my failed flights

Career is something that you can fail in. What you are proposing is a contradiction to that.

If there are going to be any...

I have no idea. I guess we'll see somewhere around 2020, when decisions will actually have to be taken if it's ever suppose to work as a joined project.
