Pearl Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Hi. Its my first time playing kerbal. I was able to deploy my parachute in the ‘learn flight basics’ training mode. However when I exit training mode and attempt the rocket liftoff in regular ‘play mode’, the liftoff is great, but when I attempt to deploy the parachute at 20,000 ft, I hear the sound of the parachute deploying yet it doesn’t actually deploy. I keep going back to training mode and it works perfectly again. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanamonde Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 How fast are you going when you trigger the parachute? It can be damaged by high speeds. And hello. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iapetus7342 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Welcome to the Forums, Pearl! Check if you're going too fast (as pointed out by Vanamonde), high speeds can cause the aerodynamic effects to rip apart the parachute. If you're going below that threshold and it still doesn't work, exit the game and use the "verify integrity of game files" option on the Steam Library page for the game. (Library > Kerbal Space Program > Gear icon > "Properties..." > Installed Files > "Verify integrity of game files") Hope this helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
