Greetings all!

[Alluvian Est-Endrati]

Greetings and well-met.

A few brief words about myself. I am a longtime sci-fi fan thanks to my grandfather & father getting me hooked on some rather great books when I was quite young. Huge fan of space exploration, development and (hopefully one day) colonization. I have played many space-related games over the years (sims, 4x-style strategy, etc) and I think the oldest space-related games I ever played were Orbiter (1986) and Rendezvous with Rama way back in the day.

Alas the original hype for Kerbal (kickstarter et-al) passed me buy somehow. Lucky for me I stumbled upon the quite wonderful Interplanetary Quest videos on YouTube done by Scott Manley. Watched a bunch, tried the demo... and lo and behold a Humble store sale popped up. Time to go see what hijinks I can get up to with the Strange Goo.

And now a seemingly appropriate quote: “The gods do not protect fools. Fools are protected by more capable fools.â€Â

Edit: Formatting issues fixed. Suddenly the post editing tools became properly available. How odd.

Welcome to the forum, Alluvian Est-Endrati.

Welcome and good luck!

When watching videos and you get stuck (especially with mods etc) don't be afraid to ask about them.

Thanks for the welcome! No questions for any mods out there as of current (or I would post in the appropriate thread). However something odd seems to have occurred with my OP as well as this one. The enter/new-line markers between paragraphs in my posts do not seem to be occurring properly. I think this is the first time I have encountered this problem with a vBulletin forum before. For example this entire post should have been formatted as shown in the following example:

Yet when I post (or do a post preview) the entire thing gets mashed together.

Edit:

How peculiar. I cannot even past in properly formatted text into a code tag.

Edit #2:

Problem resolved. I had scripts for the site blocked.
