kerbyourenthusiasm

Appreciate the feedback so far. So my inital guesses where right. Myself I've clocked ~250+hrs in the game but I never saw the need for rovers like Osterman. But giving the recreational aspect combined with the ability with mechjeb to land more or less accurate I might give it a more serious try.

With the holidays right around the corner I'm looking forward to further expand my little carreer game in the interplanetary sphere. So flying to Duna, Moho, Eve etc with Probes first, scanning the biomes and after that the first kerbaled landings to harvest more science. Which brings me to the main topic. In an actual carrer game, do you use rovers as a measure to cover different biomes and get more science by landing, or is it just a cosmetic / humorous gimmick to drive around and try some stunts? If your choice is the first, to what extend to you have the patience to drive around on the surface.(And is it a probe-rover or is it piloted by a kerbal). Looking forward to some ideas on how to actually use rovers in the game then. Cheers!

Whilst talking about the risk of hitting space debris on LKO cruising. Does anybody know, if the amount of space debris floating in orbit has an impact on the RAM used by KSP? (Asking for a friend who has, due to "a few" mods, to restart KSP every once in a while to avoid memeory overspill).
