Hi there!

I'm new here, playing this game since Sunday.

What I can say by now about KSP is that it's on of the most interesting games I've ever played, right next to the magnificent Dwarf Fortress.

After about 20 hours of gameplay (according to steam), I just managed to build a spacecraft that is able to orbit around Mun, and fly back to Kerbin without running out of fuel. Far away from any perfect orbit. All my attempts to land on Mun's surface ended in a complete destruction of the vessel, everything I send down there is too fast.

How long did it take you to land your first self-built spacecraft on Mun?

Hi there Icelflame and welcome to the forums! I can't remember how long it took to set foot on Mun but I can assure you it was one of the most tense things I have ever done in KSP. My advice would be to keep your craft small so that you need less fuel to get into space and your engines have a better thrust to weight ratio so you can decelerate faster. Good luck!
