Ah, thanks.

I'm starting with the unmanned tree and can't get the altitude contracts to complete. I've gone over 5000 km, but the contract says incomplete. The launch new vessel contract worked fine. I'm using all required mods and most of the recommended mods.

Are you sure mission controller or bootstraps are installed correctly? The objectives should have a button that pops up on the objectives window once completed.

For the launch goal I usually click it before launch. Sometimes it takes a bit if it's blinking but once checked you don't have to worry about it again if you revert to pre-launch. I also agree that it is basically pointless. As far as science rewards, I have gotten stalled at Kastor III because I can't get enough science to research clamp-o-tron juniors. Maybe I just don't know the tech tree/ science gathering well enough to get 620 science in 6 missions, but it does seem like some science reward would be appropriate. Otherwise, it's a great set of missions.
