Race Into Space Files

The latest release here is Race Into Space 1.1.

The project has since moved to GitHub, and on March 27, 2025 released version 2.0.0.  

The project can now be found at https://github.com/raceintospace/raceintospace, and the new release downloaded from there.

It includes a substantial number of improvements over the 1.1 version, including:
 - The duration penalty system is now working correctly, for the first time ever.
 - You can now downgrade the duration level of a flight in Mission Control, so if your Dur C mission failed last turn you don't have to cancel your Dur D; you can downgrade it to a C.
 - Play By Email works now.
 - The VAB/VIB (and your launch pads) now have a Delay button so you can put a mission back a turn rather than having to scrub and reschedule.
 - The Astronaut Complex / Cosmonaut Center now has a Send All button, which sends everyone to the capsule/shuttle program you select, except those who've announced retirement.
 - A Docking Duration mission where the docking failed used to cancel the Duration portion, but now it doesn't.
 - A Lunar Orbital LM Test - if the LM Test part failed - didn't give you credit for the Lunar Orbital, but now it does.
 - The game now has extra warnings in case you've lost track of something - especially, if you hit End Turn but have no missions scheduled for next.
 - Requirement Penalties (milestone, duration, new mission) now show in Mission Control to help you decide whether to downgrade.
 - Clicking on a hardware image in R&D and Purchasing now brings up a description of that piece of hardware.
 - Clicking on a mission's name box in Future Missions now brings up a description of that mission, complete with historical examples.
 - We've made lots of improvements to the context-sensitive help in the game.
