I have bug with this where connecting anything to the bottom hardpoint of the "claws" won't work. Is like it does not exist, the only ones I can connect from are the jaw and the stock claw, none of the other parts that attach the asteroid will let me build from the hardpoint that is in the direction away from the asteroid. Any ideas?

You are deploying too early. Even after reading this and several other posts I did not realise exactly how late you should deploy. I put the pressure tweak on the stock parachute at maximum and lower it manually to get the chute to deploy when I am under 4000 meters, even 3000 .... and closing 200 m/s seems to work fine.

I have also noticed that all my landing probes keep crashing. The orbiter tends to just "forget" it's connection to Kerbal after a while. It doesn't go into shadow it just drops it. When switching to the orbiter craft it shows as connected again. (And this is not a misuse of Active vessel target. It is setup properly and the link goes thru the orbiter to the lander for several minutes after switching to the lander, then dissapears.) So the only way to reactivate the connection I have found is to switch from the lander to the orbiter and then back to the lander. Then it has the connection again. But quite often this happens at a critical part in the landing and it is too late to save the lander. This happens for me on all planets and thru several games with different com setups around Kerbal now...

I have a problem with space stations not acting as remote command when they are not the active vessel. When active vessel I get the red dot on them, but when flying another vessel or viewing from tacking station there is no red dot. This seems to happens for very large stations where the remote command unit is not in the same launch as the part with 6 crew but docked onto it later. With connected living spaces though it is often quite impractical to have the remote command unit in the station core because it doesn't have connected living space. I have circumvented the problem by cheating a larger single station core piece into orbit instead of doing multiple launches, but another solution would be preferred...

I can't seem to get the remote command red dot to pop up when the command craft is out of focus anymore. Tried to rebuild the station, it still doesn't want to work. When I fly the station the red dot is there but not when flying another vessel.

Could someone please tell me what the four interface buttons actually do? I don't get any tooltips either in tracking station or when controlling a vessel.... And how is this not in any tutorial? I have been searching for ages...
