Is Emiko the only E-class asteroid that doesn't load? (provided there are other E-class ones that you can load)

If it affects E-class asteroids, AKA Emiko, then it most likely affects all of them.

I've seen the second before. It's the most common. 

I know how to track asteroids now, so I'm going to do that and I think there's a big class E headed for me so I might get emiko 2.0. I'm still on 1.0.5 BTW.

Remember, most always they shoot right back out of Kerbin's SOI, so you'll have to have  a rocket of some sort ready to intercept it and slow it down into an orbit.

I didn't try, but I can later easily enough.  From what the bug report read, I assumed it was all of them.  But it wasn't specific.  I can set up a sandbox game later and visit Dres to find out.... there's always a few big class-E's hanging around Dres.

Yay! Visit my avatar! Dres! 

I tracked the asteroid, and it's on a very close pass with kerbin. The periapsis is inside my 250 km parking orbit! So I guess i might as well catch it. And it enters the Soi on 78 days!

Good luck.  And yes, I would like to visit Dres eventually in the story.  We can't forget poor little Dres!!! 

Oh, and I got a lot of writing done today for down the road...  :wink:

Posting a tiny bit of my story because I decided to give a nod to Emiko Station in it!

Bob calmly replied.  "Jeb, Gene has told me that Wernher is ironing out all the bugs.  It won't be ready for another few months."

This absolutely enraged Jeb, as well as positively scared some of the girls on the ship.  "BOB WHEN WE GET BACK I'M GOING TO HAVE YOU FIREDF-I-R-E-D!  You know I answer directly to Gene right?"

But the other passengers were used to what they called "Stompberries"; they happened all the time.  Ego does that to you, they guessed.  "Keep to yourself, and you will be fine," one of them always said.  Still, these "Stompberries" bordered on harassment, and crude remarks to the girls on board.

My internet connection has been screwed up all weekend.... I'm checking in from a tablet.

I just checked the bug tracker, and one of the DEV team has been assigned to the asteroid bug.  Fingers crossed....  :D

Well, not much seemed to happen yesterday, but if I understand things right, most of the DEV team does this as a regular 9-5 job, so it makes sense they would take Sunday off.  Even DEV's need some time off occasionally.... :cool:

I'm confident this will get fixed, it's just a matter of patience on our part.

This is the x32 version.  The x64 doesn't do too well on my computer.  Too old I think.

It's the safer choice; x64 would likely break your save game - at least you run a high chance of explosions / weirdness with any asteroid vessels when switching between the versions. See this bug for details. (That is, once it doesn't crash for you any more, hehe)

I will keep an eye in it, thanks!

Congratulations for you story. I have just started to read it, but i like it so much. Now I'm following you cause i don't want to skip any part of your kerbal tales. Go on :D

Oh hey, welcome aboard! 
Sorry things are sort of paused at the moment, I'm sort of stuck waiting on a bug-fix. 
I promise things will get going as soon as it's fixed.

Speaking of fixes to 1.1, some of us might die if it doesn't officially come out soon. Not to change the subject or anything, but does anyone have any idea of when the full 1.1 will be released? I know they have to sort out all the ragdoll spazzing bugs and new krakens and such, but WE REALLY WANT IT TO COME OUT!!!!!

Seriously though, is there a specific date it comes out, or is it permanently pre-release until they fix everything?

No one knows when, other than Soon(tm). Also, note that Community Guidelines forbid messages that inquire about release dates--that might feel unfair to some, but I'm sure we can all imagine the morass of WHENEHENWHENWHENWHEN we'd have to wade through the to find actual content, and it's not a question the devs can really answer anyway :)

Yeeeeeeah, that makes sense. Sorry, I wasn't aware of that. Thanks for pointing it out. Please someone tell me when they see it come out though... :)

@Just Jim, hope the bugs are worked out soon, for everyone's benefit! (We can't wait for the next chapter)

Thanks.  The DEV team just released another update, but i checked and it didn't address the asteroid problem.  I did see, however, that more people have encountered it.  Hopefully they'll get it nailed down soon.  I'm getting really bored waiting, but I've sort of boxed myself in from being able to revert back to 1.0.5...

I miss my little green buddies... ;.;

Totally off-topic, and I don't care.

This evening I lost my cat, Lady Stardust.  She was 17.  Plain and simple, she died of old age. 
I'm really bummed... I'm gonna really, really miss her.   ;.;

Probably won't be online much for the next day or two.

Very sorry about Lady. Losing a pet is not easy.

Come back when you're able.

OK, I have got to do something to keep my mind occupied... so I made a decision.

I also have a confession: I already have all the screenshots I need to do another chapter.  I was going to save it and do a couple other ones in between, but unfortunately it doesn't look like this bug is getting fixed anytime soon.  So I'm going to scramble the order and write this one up now instead.   Should only take a couple hours or so to sort and upload the pics.

Just need to make some coffee first.

You, sir, have incredible resolve. Bravo.
