Rant: Every time I do something right...

[Senthysis]

The game glitches.. or gets corrupted... or suddenly my save files aren't valid with the same stinkin' version I've been using.

I've been playing this game for a week. I finally, finally, FINAAAAALLLY successfully landed on the Mun. No youtube vids.. no physics degree.. no tutorials... NADA!! The second my kerbal's little toes touch the surface, my screen goes black and the Altimeter reads 666666k meters. I go to the space center and see that one EVA kerbal, floating in space, and hurtling into the sun, and my lander in it's own planetary orbit.

That's just some plain bad luck. It's a rare glitch, but it does happen sometimes when a Kerbal jumps from a ladder onto a world's surface. Can you load a quicksave from before the mishap?

[Fel]

Congratulations! (And sorry)

My first time actually was after doing the in-game tutorial, I believe; so not as momentous as yours

[joppiesaus]

*sigh*

I know that feeling.

I once had a glitch(cupola explodes randomly), and I hit my desk, and I got a bluescreen.

Turns out I almost killed my hard disk drive.

This game definitely has its moments. One time I simply switched to a station around Kerbin, started doing an EVA and then it froze and gave my computer a Kernal Panic (Mac version of a BSoD).

If you can reproduce the bug, file a bug report or record a video. Remember, the game is only in Alpha

You think that's bad? Well... it is. But I've actually experienced worse. In 0.18, I had quite a nice space station built over the course of about a dozen launches. It was beautiful. It was massive. It was amazingly symmetrical. And it was reduced to its component parts due to a glitch in how docking ports worked back then when using certain mods in conjunction with one another.

lol I'm just glad they fixed the fuel lines it used to be a nightmare. but as far as random glitches go the worst I had was when my rover got within 2.5km of my base the base exploded. (I know the render glitch still frustrating as I had no quicksave )

I've been getting that bug on interplanetary mapping probes... I switch to them, the screen goes black, and the altitude either scrolls, or shows 666666k. I'm trying to reduce the variables to find out what happened... old mods (Had one that was apparently released about the time Jebediah the First looked up from his snackless hands and thought, "I wonder if those lights are tasty?"), memory leaks (most of the problems come after long mapping runs), etc.

I know the feeling exactly. Though you have better control than I do.

That's how I feel when Murphy swings by. Carring his annoying law. And he doesn't even call ahead first!

I had a rover crash on the Mun that sent Jeb flying. I was wondering if he was going to be okay since we weren't actually going all that fast but I heard an explosion sound when he landed and he simply disappeared.

Next launch he shows up in the cockpit.

My first Mun landing.... I bork the landing and the craft explodes pieces everywhere, but the capsule survives...

3 Kerbals stuck on the moon.

Alright, I'm gonna go get them.

Elaborate lander with hitchhiker can and an attached rover. Rover makes lander lopsided and I barely get the lander down but it survives.

Too bad I'm bad at landing and landed 24km from the first landing.

Detach the lander, I'm not experienced enough then to think to put a probe core on the rover, someone has to drive out there and get them. Rover only holds 2 at a time, so it's gonna be a long night ferrying them across.

Drive out there... alright get them out of the capsule. "]" capsule begins to accelerate thru the ground of mun. eva impossible hatch is blocked, faster and faster they accelerate out of the far side of mun on escape. Hatch is somehow still blocked. Mun escape, Kerbin escape... still accelerating.

I end flight, take the long lonely drive back to my big empty lander, return to Kerbin.

That's how I got my first black stripe

[rasheed]

Lost a moon landing? thats nothing compared to what happened to me.

I built an HUGE mun base that took apox 13 launches to build.

I was doing my first rover trip to the finished base, as soon as i reached 2.5 km THE ENTIRE THING SHOT UP INTO THE SKY AT LIKE 2849 m/s.

After many stuggles i landed the base (it was symmetrical) and when i touchdown the entire thing exploded.

After that i may never play KSP

@Moon Goddess and rasheed,

This was his first Mun landing. For all intents and purposes that was as valuable as a 1000+ part Base on Bop, or something.
