Rescue Kerbal contract

[Kettlec]

Hi,

I got a Problem with a contract. I have to rescue a poor Kerbal, witch is stuck in space around kerbin. So I build a rocked and reach a Rendezvous. Now my ship floats side by side with the kerbal and the contract says "get Kerman aboard a vessel". But I cant controll him, so how shall I get him aboard?

Once you are within physics range (2.3km... which you obviously are if you're floating right beside him!) you should be able to press the [ and ] keys to switch between nearby vessels (and kerbals!). You'll also need to turn on his EVA pack, I can't remember what the default key is because I remap most of my keys, but it's the same as the RCS key I think ("r" seems likely!)

Don't forget to take up an extra (empty) command pod unless you don't mind leaving the other guy in orbit instead!

First question on the .24 FAQ., provided by the thoughtful Claw.

You have got to be kidding me... i have tried 3 times now ( at least 10 hours worth) and never knew about the [ ] thing... I've always been able to click on controllable stuff

lol thanks very much for the info bud

That's a new bug in the 64 bit version, right clicking on stuff doesn't work very well.
