I earned 350 and caused 2400 in accidents and fines!

you shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a steering wheel, from now on you should sit in the backseat.

its a sim, it also has company building aspects with hiring other drivers etc (for now i am content shouting at other traffic, honking my horn when they dont start driving at a green light and other forms of road rage)
also funny is you can listen to real radio stations

(and add stations if you know the ip of the station)

and well i guess i am getting old

i find it very relaxing just driving and getting from a to b

and it also has sim parts where you can hire people to drive goods for you, although i havent reached that part yet after 2 hours of play

Surprisingly fun actually, just trucking, listening to the radio and thats about it. There is also a whole sim about it with making money and buying+upgrading your truck and levels and i dont know what else, i just know i just drove from amsterdam to london

stick an antena to the capsule so you can send data back to kerbin
and if you have it use some solar panels (any) so you can keep transmitting (when you have sun or a battery)

and the patch before the current one you were able to burn off other parts effectively having a simple decoupler. doesnt work now i think (i tried and i couldnt get it to work. did get re-entry effects on liftoff

)

Just bought this, and it is awesome.

Not managed orbit yet, however, im returning my astronauts home after each mission into space

Had one almost deadly mishap when during transition between stages my solid fuel jettison action decided to blow up my entire ship except for the command pod and parachute, so he survived.

yea Jeb is a tough one

are you playing the "career mode"?
if so start is hard, but if you land be sure to EVA with your Kerbal and take a sample of ground and use the experimental thing you have (also use that before you launch also gets you SP)

Also EVA when outside of the atmosphere.

As for a tip to get into orbit (idk what parts you have but still as a general rule)

go straight up till you reach around 13.000 17.000 meters, keep your acceleration around 100 m/s till you get there there (so slow down if you can when not using solid boosters)
once you get there throttle up to full power and tilt your ship slightly and move it 45-50 degrees heading east (90 degrees)
switch to map mode, pull up your hud and control it from there, once your Apoapsis hits around 100 km turn off your engines and tilt your ship to 90 degrees. Once you start closing the Apoapsis throttle up again, once you hit around 2400 m/s you should have put yourself in orbit
