Hi, my second and last thread in the Welcome section - after that I'm in (or out). So I ask two the Demo game is understandbly a little limited, so I am unsure how some items work in the full game. Question 1: After a (failed) launch, I get the option to "reset". What is being restored as if the failed launch did not happen? I can see the contract/achievments seemed to be saved. It seems (I have not noted the exact numbers) that my science benefit for each re-run lessens. But the poor pilot is woken from the dead. What is the game-play list of restored/kept? Question 2: The reputation/fund is totally unclear (too brief/small in the demo). When are funds deducted, when earned? What does reputation do? Just a brief summary will do fine.

HI, So I am playing the Demo (try-before-buy), getting a feel for the game mechanics, and just cant work out handling stages properly. I'm doing the Career mode, and have managed to get a small solid booster rocket up, figuring the science research and gotten a few more modules. Phew. Now I am trying stages. I just cant seem to control them. I have grid with 3 solid boosters, seperator, grid with goo science, seperator module with arial and parachute. So what button pushing sequence would make it easy to launch, seperate, do the science, seperate, deploy parachute. So far I have manged by mouseclicking on the rocket parts (tricky if its wobbling) and using the popupmenu. That seems all wrong. Hammering the space bar seems to do stages "sometimes", at least I have not figured excatly when it does something. Msquare,
