Hotfix #1 Moon transfers and high Earth orbitsThank you everyone who reported that the Moon was almost impossible to reach. You were right, and it wasn't a balance problem. Two bugs in the launch pad's mission planner made the Moon and high Earth orbits far more expensive than they should have been.
