Kerbal rescue from Minmus needed!


Recommended Posts

So I've been playing this game for about two weeks, and I've successfully landed Jeb on Minmus, with a little rover to drive around. Unfortunately, because he's a dumb hick, he totally rolled it. Now he's unconscious in the external command chair and I can't figure out how to wake him up so he can get off his butt and start walking back to his lander (he broke off a wheel while pinwheeling down a slope).

Is there something I'm missing, or should I just write him off as dead?

Use the debug toolbar to right him which should wake him up.

I got one stuck on my ship once, between two tanks. I used the "whack a kerbal" option and turned down the mass and speed and threw balls at him till he moved.

If you get it right you could hit the rover enough to flip him over. Use quicksave before you do anything though. The first time I did it the mass and speed were so high that my ship exploded :D

He's actually on the three remaining wheels and upright, but he's laying there like when you take a tumble during an EVA, and the game is acting like he's still slightly in motion even though the navball shows 0.0 m/sec. It's rather comical until you realize that he might just be dead. I'll look into the debug toolbar thing though.

He's gonna have quite the hike to get back to the lander though. That thing tumbled for a few kilometers...

THe great thing about minmus is it's low gravity. If you jet pack him up and then forwards (Towards the lander) and keep his vertical speed low as he comes down you can slide quite a ways.
