[Bug] Found Bug, Lost Valentina

[MadChris48]

So what had happened was: sent Valentina to Jool. I'm in the Tracking Center screen time warping to the intercept. Just before she enters Jool SOI I click the fly the ship button. In the midst of it switching to/loading the ship I press 'M' to bring up the orbital map. The ship never loads, and all I see are the sun and stars (and HUD of course). so then, I press ESC and head back to the Space Center. Now, back at Kerbin, the terrain didn't load and I can see the solar system where I should be seeing land and ocean, I'm pretty sure the buildings loaded (can't fully recall. its late, and I'm getting tired). Anyways, I quit the game, and load it back up. Only now Valentina is missing. No ship in tracking station, she just...disappeared. It really sucks cause I pride my Space Program on not losing the main Kerbals, and secondly, Jool is a long trip. le sigh.

Anyone else had this happen to them yet?

Any chance I could load some previous quicksave or something to resurrect her? I'm really not keen on restarting my career over this.

I'm pretty bummed and gonna call it a night. Thanks for any input.

Sounds like you ran into some form of kraken......

You could try loading from a previous quicksave.

I tried that , but I think after I exited and restarted the game the quicksave I had was lost.

Back up your persistence file. Go there. Ctrl + F. Find "Valentina". Find the bit where it says missing and change it to active or whatever the other Kerbals (alive) are. Reload game. Enjoy Necromanced Valentina.

This is a bug that I've been encountering at least 3 times in 1.0 so far.
