Hi Guys,

A Manned Sub-Orbital is a Pre-requisite for an Manned Orbital Mission? Seriously?

It didn't happen historically.
Hardware Reliability was much better, especially after the Apollo 1 Fire.
It is an extra mission at a time when the player is really pushed to meet the Lunar Landing Goal.

Please drop it.

Cheers!

Hello Andrew,

Thanks for the feedback. Although what you say is true from a historical point of view, remember than in SPM you might as well skip Mercury and Gemini and dive straight into Apollo. Maybe what we can do is drop the requirement for the 'Manned sub-orbital' but increase the penalization for an unachieved 'Man in space' goal, what do you think?

Cheers,

Hi Guys,

Yep - that should fix it.

Cheers!
