<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>Langley Light Lunar Lander: 14696 kg <e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE> <br/> Hello,<br/> <br/> I just checked the game data and indeed there is a bug. The mass of the Langley should be comparable to the Soviet LK (a bit heavier, because the LK uses the N1 Block D for powered descent)....

<t> Hello Jorge,<br/> <br/> Notice that the a rocket (and any other program in the game) maintenance costs is proportional to the unit cost and the program opening cost. So the most expensive programs are also those that burden your budget with heavy maintenance costs, and it's where "low cost" prog...

<r> Hello Jorge,<br/> <br/> All the 'secret' behind 'non man-rated' and 'man-rated' rockets lies in those two parameters :<br/> <br/> - Reliability : the man-rated ones are safer, you can reach higher Max. R&D and Max. Safety values.<br/> - Cost : the above safety comes at a price, 'non-man rate...

<r> Hello Jorge,<br/> <br/> About the rockets you need, well its up to you really. Personally I use extensively the R-7 Luna (a bargain, and great for uncrewed suborbital tests) and R-7 Voskhod. There might be something in the balance between R-7 Soyuz and Proton-KD, I agree, and I'll transmit the i...

Hello czert,

Thanks for the feedback, be sure that the Lead Developper will have a look at it.

Have fun ! [8D]

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>Case in point: In my Soviet campaign I cut some corners because research was going so slowly and by Q1 1959 had a prestige of -953! I expected to be fired and perhaps even sent to a gulag somewhere, but instead the game continued and my budget was even increased! <e>[/quote]...

<r> Hello Templar,<br/> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>By the way, I think the speed of the mission animations is a bit to fast. <e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE> <br/> Problem is that the most complex missions are really long (more than 4 minutes for some lunar landings), and we didn't wanted the player to go away and...

Hello Templar,

A patch is definitively on the way, don't worry ! [;)]

Thanks for your feedback ! [:)]

Hello,

My screen is a 16:10, I'm running Win7 in 1650x1080 px, and I have no issue playing BASPM full screen with the 1600x900 "non-windowed" (full screen) setting. The interface is clear, doesn't seems too stretched and the result is definitively playable. [8D]

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>will be there "discouts" for running more programs with similiar core ?<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE> <br/> What we currently have is that some programs share common hardware components, and the game won't charge you for components you already have. So it can be quite an interestin...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>and from watching many videos - when you have problem i realy miss one think - you dont know WHAT HAPPEND/FAILED when you have problem.

Hello stilicho,

Thanks for the report, interesting to see that the US were quite in late and that you managed to land a cosmonaut on the Moon before 1970 [8D]. Which difficulty level did you select ?

Hello satisfaction,

I'll check the second issue. [;)]

Cheers !

<t> Hello Czert,<br/> <br/> You'll have 3 campaigns, each featuring 3 difficulty levels :<br/> <br/> - GSA (race against the clock)<br/> - USSR vs NASA CPU (competitive)<br/> - NASA vs USSR CPU (competitive)<br/> <br/> Plus the online PBEM mode, that allows to pick any of the 3 agencies.

Nice pic !

The coloration caused by the atmosphere make it look a bit like Venus without clouds [:)]

Welcome Geredis,

Thanks for your suggestions and have a nice stay here [:)]

Notice that, by definition, a catastrophic failure always involve casualties. That's how NASA defines it. [;)]

Hello tgb,

Yes, this is something we are thinking about. Right now some events are, as you say, a bit contradictory. [:)]

<r> Well, I'm curently re-testing that Soviet sandbox mode. I'm 1.1965, have 28,944 pts of Prestige and earn 10,140 / turn. I have Vostok, Voskhod, Soyuz 7K-OK and their associated rockets opened. I play safe and things are going well, I'm in the historical timeline. [:)]<br/> <br/> <I><s>[i]</s>N_M...

This can get fixed by extensive R&D and properly trained Mission Controllers & Astronauts. [:)]
