Playing the 0.7.4

Some observations:

-Why is so hard the development of the Agena rocket? This booster progress slow, very slow, with normally the last seasons jumping 1% and 1% each season. It's a designed feature? This problem kill my schedule time to Gemini.
-Moreover, why is the Gemini program so expensive? Need five seasons to purchase!

I believe the Agena was really difficult to develop and was the pacing item for several programs.

If you mean the Agena target, it uses the Crewed Spacecraft skill, like the Gemini capsule itself. I guess that was the closest thing they had. I found it went very quickly, once I had the capsule done (same skill set). If you haven't used the a Atlas-Agena booster before (some of the probes use it), then THAT is a major hang up, but all of the boosters take forever to research.

If you think Gemini is expensive to open, wait until you start flying missions, especially the crewed rendezvous mission. Sticker Shock!

I'm working on a different system for the components' reliability. Hopefully it'll be ready for the next patch.

I will lower it down for the upcoming patch (0.7.5), then.

Cheers,
