[BALANCE] Astronauts add 100% reliability ?

[N_Molson]

I don't know if I've just been very very lucky, of course, but the fact is I never encountered any failure with the X-15 or the Mercury capsule, the 2 only piloted spacecrafts available for now. The missions can fail when other parts than the spacecraft are involved (prelaunch, booster), but once the astronaut takes control, I never had any failure. So are you people experiencing the same thing, or should I play lottery ? The less skilled astronaut I had scored 80, if it helps.

Config :

- BASM v0.7.0 (Oct 25 2013)
- Windows 7 Premium Home edition (x64) SP1 (French)
- AMD Athlon II X2 245 Processor 64 bits-able 2.91Ghz
- 4MB RAM
- NVIDIA GT240

Thanks for the feedback. We'll tweak the numbers in a future update and let you guys know so that you can tell us your experiences.

OK, I finally got a failure during the "descent" step of the mission.

But still, it is a very rare event, much more than with unmanned programs.
