Great AAR, Paul! I've also played this one a bit when it first came out, didn't know it was this advanced already.

Shouldn't that be 'loonar' orbit?

Glad you all enjoyed the AAR, it was fun to put it together.

This was an interesting challenge, made possible with another player produced module called the 'RinComp'..

Orbital Rendezvous cool

Thanks for the AAR and the screenshots, there certainly has been a lot of development since I tried it the last time.

But looking at your screenshots - where the heck are Jeb, Bill and Bob?

I'd especially miss Jebs character, this always happy madman - the more parts came flying the happier he became.

hahaha

I think Jebediah is still in the mix, but they had to recruit more Kerbalnauts now that we can have multiple spacecraft active at any one time.

Well, i have been playing with the stock version (freeware) and, i like it. Though Orbiter is more sim like, i like the ability to build your own rocket in many mad designs and impractical shapes and use of rocket power.

Just love it.

Sorry Kerbonauts - I have just purchased! Getting to the moon is not the hard bit for me. Its keeping that damned rocket together lol.

Many thanks for the heads up.
