I'm relocating to Ireland with my family this Summer. I'll be heading over early to get set up (working with a recruiter). It appears you need a mailing address to get essentially anything done, is it possible to set up a PO Box before going over?

Since the 1.5 update, the prior version of EER won't function. A new version was just released, but I'm damned if I can get it to work (I deleted the old file, downloaded the new version from github and copied the GameData folder over). Now the normal VAB controls won't even work. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Is there any way to use cargo bays to recover Kerbals from orbit, when they are in craft that doesn't allow exit? I can't dock the pods inside the bay, as they never have docking ports, and when I do manage to get one in the bay and close the doors, it clips through and soon as I start moving.

I have SEP stations set up on the Mun and Minmus. They have both run all of their experiments to completion, but I'm unable to get the science/data to transmit. It is set to auto-transmit, but hasn't, and won't. When I go to the station, it shows that the station is connected to the satellite network, but the 4 bar icon on the SEP interface shows no signal strength (the station is fully charged). I've even gone back to the station and had a scientist try to manually retrieve the data, but I just get 6 copies of the "interior heat probe". Is this a known bug? Any thoughts?

So I recently upgraded from a 6 year old laptop (not 64 bit), that was running ksp with 90+ mods at a reasonable framerate, even with fairly large builds. My new rig has WIndows 10, Intel i7-770 (2.9 GHZ) with 32G RAM, Radeon 460 with 4G of memory. From everything I've been reading to try to solve this, this should be more than enough to run KSP at almost max settings, but I can't get over 8 fps once it gets to the KSP campus scene/launches (totally stock, no mods at all).

I've updated my graphics driver, unistalled and reinstalled KSP several times, completely reset the system and reinstalled steam and KSP, ran some mods from CKAN to see if that helped or hurt (no change). I added the

I've accepted several mission for measuring temperatures at certain points on Kerbin above 17-18 km. (I got these contracts when I barely had any plane parts to speak of). Now, even after getting afterburners, I'm having trouble making a plane that will get above 10-12 km. Is there any tutorials/advice you can offer?

I've accepted a contract that requires a Mun base with a viewing cupola. When I build the base in the VAB, the "viewing cupola" requirement is checked, but when I land on the Mun with the base, it doesn't acknowledge that it is there, and won't mark it as completed. Has anyone else had this issue?

I accepted a contract to test a decoupler when "splashed down at Kerbin". Easy right? Put the decoupler under the module with just enough fuel and engine to get you to the water, splash down and decouple. Except once it is splashed down the hitting space doesn't do anything. And you can't manually decouple (click on it and select decouple) because the contract specifies that it has to be done by staging. Am I missing something?
