I love this game, shame I can't buy the full version.

Can't as in too expensive, or store related?

If it's the store thing, it's kinda clunky but eventually it worked for me. I hope they go to steam in the near future.

[Aklyon]

The store ain't as clunky as it started as. When KSP was $7 and you had to use the forum-based store, you had to use a box marked quantity (for who knows why, it only was for one copy) to enter how much you were donating for the pre-preorder.

i can post some images of a rocket if you like. i had handling problems.

[andrea]

hm. I tried EVA, thinking that they would move wherever the camera is facing.
insitead, it seems that every camera mode has its own plane in which kerbonauts can move, but no 3D.
which means, I couldn't move my kerbonaut back to spacecraft, and now he is happily orbiting.

edit: ah, nevermind. orbits took me close to the spacecraft agan, but a little bit too fast. good news is, the spacecraft is ok.

[Rift]

Uh throttle up and down moves up and down, if thats what you needed... [also you have to toggle your jetpack if you hadn't]
It's a bit ackward but not that hard to move around via jetpack in space.

[Sirus]

Can the kerbalnauts die if they hit something (or the ground) too hard? Or are they invincible?

[guintiger]

Reason to love this game?  It is SO in the spirit of Dwarf Fortress....I've found I actually have more fun when I LOSE!  The looks on those poor little volunteers faces...especially the one that is ALWAYS smiling even when his shipmates are screaming and vomiting.  I'm in love.

ah, those are the only 2 keys I hadn't tried
thank you.

And sirus, kerbalnauts can ( and will) die on EVA. I just smashed one into my own spacecraft.

Really? on mine thrust up and down are ctrl and shift.

I have been wanting to make a mun landing craft similar to apollo in the sense that the lander portion stays on the mun once you leave. The problem was the standard lander engine was too weak to boost me to munar intersection and the larger engine was too big for the legs (and I was too stupid to consider the side mounted engine).

I decided to use the larger one and just let it get destroyed when I landed, so off to the mun I went.

All was well and the desent was beautiful. I touched down at something like 3 m/s, so gentally that the engine didn't explode, it merely snapped off... and knocked my craft over. The rocket fell but I got the return vehical off just in time.

wow.

[alway]

I tried the space elvator...

it ain't working.

How so?

Edit: Hrm; testing with different models of capsule show inconsistent results; advising caution with testing in this direction, as one of the capsules appears to have entirely locked up my game's flow of time, requiring a deletion of the save folder.

But there is some good news. Recent technological advances have enabled us to freeze time!
But not unfreeze it. >_>

[Aseaheru]

wow.
