I keep running into the "re-entry is death" scenario because my parachutes do not work right. I'm pretty sure something is out of whack on the physics. I deploy chutes properly while re-entering Kerbin's atmosphere and they have no effect on the craft's speed. I'm not the only one to have this problem but I cannot find either a patch or an adjustment that works. Please tell me there's a fix. Please tell me definitively where it is. Please tell me I don't need a PhD in computer science to install it. Please let me get back to running my little amateur space program without killing any Kerbal lucky enough to make it into space.
