A-z-K posted a thread about this some time ago. My uncle plays with kerbals and he tells me these stories about him frist getting into space and stuff. It drove me nutts.
yeah I play it, there is another thread about it, I think Wealthysoup dabbles too. I even learnt stuff, Scott Manley has a great YouTube channel about it. I was kind of stuck for things to do after a while but its fun planning mission profiles out with limits. Also the kerbal forums have some good games where they have come up with a points system, the game still lacks any kind of reward mechanic so it can get dull once you get proficient unless you can invent your own minigames but I still play it a fair bit. I'm currently sending up ships with multiple probes on it to scatter the outer solar system. I was gonna try to do a save game share or something here - but you pretty much need to do that with only standard parts (maybe mechjeb). great game though, its still early in development but I hear there is alot more stuff planned out.
Yep I posted a very detailed thread on this a few months ago. Look, 10 seconds of searching gave me the link to it: http://forums.empiresmod.com/showthread.php?t=16950&highlight=kerbal+space+program
