RE: Download is a RAR file?

Are you running Windows? A number of downloadable tools will unpack RAR files. 7zip is free, at http://www.7-zip.org.

If you're running some other OS, then I don't know.

RE: Space Program Manager is updated to version 1.4.0!

UPDATE: I've gotten the Windows link to download successfully. The link address is pretty standard. Just change the "http://" header to "ftp://", and you're good to go.

I get a 404 Error when I try to download the PC patch. Are you sure the link points to the correct location?

RE: Space Program Manager Launch Contest Announced!

Okay. I tried clicking the trophy icon, and it had me enter a username and password. I used the ones from this site, even though I couldn't select the option to do so. I was connected to the PBEM server, and I couldn't tell whether I registered for the contest or not. Was I successful?

RE: Status update 20/06/2014

<t> This may not be the best place to say so, but thank you so much for developing a PBEM system. I like TBS games anyway -- I'd much rather try to out-think my opponent than out-twitch him or her -- but as someone far-removed geographically from lots of people he cares about, I'm deeply grateful ...

Thanks! I ran it with 0.7.16 installed, and things seem to be working well. Again, my gratitude for all the hard work on this game!

RE: SPM v. 0.7.17 is now available

<t> My apologies -- I'm not sure I understand. I have version 0.7.16 installed, and I think it was the first version I installed. Should I uninstall it, install 0.7.15, and somehow update it to 0.7.15.1 before attempting to upgrade to 0.7.17?<br/>

RE: while ive been waiting..

<r> You reminded me about the first time I tested my Bop lander -- in orbit around Minmus, a comet-like body that is in far orbit around the Kerbal home world (Kerbin).<br/>

Calling it a "lander" is a bit of a stretch; it consisted of nothing but a probe controller, a docking clamp ...

<t> Alt-right clicking on a stage will bring up a small context menu. Do that on both stages where you want the fuel transfer to take place. Click "Out" on the stage where you want the fuel/oxidizer to leave, and click "In" on the stage where you want the fuel/oxidizer to enter. You might need to ...

RE: A pic for us space mission dreamers

<t> I'm just interested in spacesuits generally, so recognizing the Apollo model was easy. I have a long-term project to make a "next generation" spacesuit as a Halloween costume; the idea is to make a suit for an asteroid miner in the near future. It's kind of part spacesuit, part rock-climbing ...

RE: Buzz Aldrin's Space Program Manager Teasing Screens and Video

Stunning. Absolutely stunning.

Stupid, simple question with a potentially equally simple answer, though: In the numbered list in Picture #2, why is Neptune (Neptone?) listed before Uranus?

Even as greedy as I am to get my hands on this, though, I'll try to encourage you to take your time and get this right ...
