Ah I'll put what I was going to ask here, then. Is there a way I can relock the gemini campaign missions (Like a file to delete or edit)? I don't mind having to redo them, I am curious to see if the time compression may be contributing to the weird issue I had of successive missions not unlocking upon mission completion. I did use 400x compression, but not higher as the loading screen warns against using over 500x.

Good idea, I will add this feature to the console!

Wouldn't it be better to remove the time compression above 400x ? The translunar coast took about 3 days, in 400x compression that's roughly 10 minutes.

I'm also in great support for a 'time advance' feature where one would be able to jump in increments of 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, 8 hours (a typical sleep period). I believe it's easier than time compression to get to a certain time in the future. I personally overshot the time I was aiming for, resulting for instance in having to do an extra orbit to do a Hohmann transfer.

Just completed Gemini mission 2 (The Walk in Space) and mission 3 unlocked fine.

Only issue was that 'waiting for entry to start' didn't trigger until shortly before drogue, so comms from the beginning of entry showed up at 50kft.

Hello, I'm currently unable to start the Gemini campaign - when I click on the mission name in the campaign screen, the option to launch doesn't appear on the right side like it should. I've checked the other campaigns and they all work fine, just the Gemini (mission 1 "A New Spacecraft" in particular, so far) isn't working. I also tried opening the campaign screen from the career screen, but that didn't work either. Is there something I can do on my end to get this working?

Thanks for any help, sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this question (I'm new here).

To follow up: I reverted to the previous version (reentry099rc6) in Steam, and I was able to launch and play the mission without any issues. After completing mission 1, I updated back to the latest/current version once again, and tried mission 2, and that loads fine. So it seems this problem is only affecting the first mission of campaign 2. I'll post another update if I run into the issue again with other missions as I go through the campaign.

Thanks, I will do some more testing on this!

Would you be able to reproduce the issue and then send me the log for it, it sounds like some kind of exception or so, and if that is the case, it will be visible in the logs so I can analyze

Got what I needed, all good, no further action needed. This issue will be fixed for the next patch (0.998).

Amazing, thanks!! And thanks for a great game 😄

I'm now having an issue with the Gemini campaign 2nd mission ascent. Everything loads and runs as normal until stage 1 separation, which never happens. The engine cuts off normally and I get the correct red Engine I lights, then Engine II light turns on (amber), but nothing else happens. I can hear the engine noise, but stage 1 never separates, so I can't progress. I've tried reverting to the previous version (same as last issue) but that didn't work. I verified game files, same issue. Uninstalled and re-installed the game, same issue. I'm not sure if this is part of the known "Gemini ascent and campaign issues" but just thought I'd mention it in case it is something new. Thanks again.
