Help with the Mk1 Crew Cabin please?

[Flexico]

This is my suborbital lander I've made for getting around Kerban. I can fit 3 Kerbals total into it, but the two in the Crew Cabin can't get out. Is there a way to add something in between the capsule and Cabin to allow then to do EVA's? If not, what's the lowest-tier way to get more than one Kerbal to do EVA's from the same ship? I've unlocked the Hitchhiker Storage Container, but it's way too huge to work with any of the rockets/tanks I have available.

Right click on the crew cabin, then click "Transfer Crew".  Click on the command pod.  You can then EVA out.  Repeat for the second Kerbal,

Oh dude, is it really that simple? Thanks a lot!

Each of those ladder pieces weighs as much as one retractable ladder

I haven't unlocked the retractable ladder yet! Thanks for the info though~

Quick Suggestion/Question How did you land with no engines?

[Flexico]

Oh, I'm on Kerbin here, so all I needed was a parachute. I went suborbital to get science from faroff biomes.

I see cool

Pretty well designed 

Do you mind if I copy it?

[Flexico]

By all means! In fact, here's the schematic file of the whole ship: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jxd4ubeur61e7k2/Penrose Mk VIII Suborbital.craft?dl=1

Thanks but I'm on console. 

I think I can manage with pictures.

You should make a Base when you get the tech. It will look really good

[Flexico]

I plan to! Right now I'm working on rescuing a pilot who got stranded in orbit because she ran out of fuel. XD Randevous are haaaaarrd.

[Flexico]

Oh ok! Here's a pic of the whole ship: 

(note that I later discovered solid boosters worked better for this than the four liquid ones)

Want a tip: 

If the craft is behind your target make your apogee higher that your targets apogee.

If your craft is in front of your target then decreese your apogee into a perigee to be lower than the Targets Apogee.

Also remember that it's space and a vacuum and not in atmosphere

Oh thank God I'm not the only one who calls it Apogee and Perigee instead of Apoapsis and Periapsis like they're called in the game. XDDD I've been watching a let's play on Youtube and the guy struggles to pronounce those words every time he says them.

And thanks for the tip!

Np. I'm going to do research and see if their is a difference . But if their is no difference I don't get it either lol

[Flexico]

Ooohhh, according to my research, Apogee and Perigee specifically refer to the Apoapsis and Periapsis of things orbiting Earth. So since the game happens on Kerbin, those words don't technically apply.

That would explain it

I need to go but I will test your craft on console, did you want me to give you some improvements to the rocket?

[Flexico]

Sure, any advice is welcome! :3 Also fyi, the reason the lander has so many legs (11) is that my first attempt only had four and two of them broke on landing and the lander tipped over. Adding more parachutes probably would have fixed it too, but I like the centipede look. XD

Ok I wasn't going to suggest that, anyways let me get back to you tommorow. (Today) After I take it for a spin

[Flexico]

Cool, see ya! =D

Ok bye
