I edit my guys stupidity and courage. They always only show the grin of the truly mentally ill to me. In contemplation of this I come to the realization this does not invalidate what you said and in fact may make it worse.

Spoiler: So, I finally reached a mountain. Took me like three quarters of an hour to get there. (click to show/hide)

[Linenoise]

I finally got the game and all I know for certain at this time is that I am not very good at making rockets. I think I will fit right in with these Kerbin chaps...

1. More struts.
2. More boosters.

how well developed is this game? is it a complete game yet?

Don't worry about it too much. You may have brainwashed a species to have no sense of self preservation as you strap them to giant rockets and hurl them into the void, but it's not the worst thing Bay12 has ever done.

Does Jeb have like a special like. Something in the game that makes him like that? Because I've sorta noticed the same thing, but his stats say Bill is just as brave as Jeb is and Jeb is actually smarter then Bill. Edit: Although to be honest I don't actually know if the stats do anything. I assumed they controlled when they panicked, but maybe not.

[Rose]

Jeb isn't the only on that reacts like that, actually.

[PTTG??]

They have a special tag in their identity files. I believe it's [BAD_S].

Yes and no. Its playable, but not done yet. Think of it like Dwarf Fortress in that regard.

So I bought the game, and after a few tutorials managed to land on the Mun on the second try, using the default Kerbal X rocket. Only problem is that the lander has next to no fuel left, and even if it did, the engine broke off during the crash unusually harsh landing. The kerbonauts are fine though, so now I'm trying to design another rocket with more fuel that can bring the three maniacs back home in one piece. From what I've observed from this thread, it seems that events like these are par for the course.

[Cthulhu]

You don't have to get the lander all the way onto the Mun and back, you can always send a ship with enough fuel to get into low Mun orbit and back, and dock them.  If there's no clamp just synchronize the orbits and have your kerbals jump across, it's safer than it sounds.

[LordSlowpoke]

it's safer than it sounds.

I like having a smallish lander with a couple of the smaller radial engines and a docking port of the back. Then I have a larger stage that it launches with with a docking port on front. When they get to Mun, i have them undock, lander lands. Later flies back up and reattaches.
