    That was great, and this really puts pressure on you, happy to see some debugging before disabling the OAMS by triggering the RCS. Your reasoning in the post analysis is correct, the OAMS thrusters got stuck and was causing unpredictable behavior. By enabling RCS, you shut down the OAMS entirely, and can use it to regain control. Not sure why the roll stopped as I usually have to correct that myself but hey, you made it down, in the games hardest mission yet. Apollo will be easy after this :)

    When you activate rcs it's cuts the line to oams for some reason. But you forgot to set rcs to acme, I think you also powered acme off as well.

    • @ghostdog688

      The OAMS line severing is done with a seperate switch, but this is a fail-safe in case of a stuck thruster (which is what this failure is). Pyrotechnic guillotines cut the line by force, preventing the OAMS and RCS from conflicting with one another.
      Because RCS is a very finite (and seperate) fuel source, NASA policy at the time was that it’s an automatic Mission abort once RCS is enabled, because without OAMS and RCS, the capsule is not able to be controlled, leading to a very good chance of being stuck in orbit or tumbling and burning up during reentry.
      The events of Gemini 8 are also the reason why the RCS in Apollo is so complex as it has 4 quadruple redundant RCS thruster packs, and also a seperate RCS source for the CM.
      NASA wasn’t screwing around with that again.

      @@ghostdog688 I am aware of that. But the line is severed when pressing the rcs as well. It does the same thing, and I just think it was for human-design orientation. In an emergency the two buttons signal different things in the brain, ultimately doing pretty much the same thing with the exception that the rcs button also pressurized the forward fuselage.

    This feels like Gemini 8, while the mission you did before is probably Gemini 9 (or to be more precise 9A).
    Interestingly they let you play the later mission first, but I don't mind, this makes a better storytelling anyway.
