Well Done! This will most definitely go through! I’ll ping A staff member tomorrow at around twelve thirty :)

Hello EthanJS

Just to know, how did you make your Mars reentry? You had no heat shield, and you spent really little fuel between those 2 screenshots:

maybe he used no heat damage cheat or rotated his spacecraft and then activated the engine when the reentry phase ends

I'm sorry, but I forgot to save the blueprint
But you can't recreate the part that is concerned?
To be honest I feel like your engines were not protected during reentry and that they were destroyed by heat. That's why I was asking, in case I missed something. If that's the case then I'm sorry but I can't accept it, as no part must be destroyed during the mission (except dumped parts of course).

wait.
i have an theory:
maybe they clipped the heat shield so that it can handle high heat?
Or. maybe they dont feel useful.
