Questions about Piloting

Psyran:
Ok, this is probably really silly, but how do I activate hydrogen?

Pickle:
Click on it in the tool bar (or use the corresponsing 2, 3 or 4 key) and press W to go up.  Remember to turn it off again (press 1).

RearAdmiralZill:
To give a little more description, when you have it selected, its on and running. Raise up and watch your boat soar. Once you de-select it, it still stays on for 3 seconds after that. Make sure you account for that since its burning up your balloon's hp. A handy trick it to just give it a quick tick so you get 3 seconds worth and you dont harm yourself too bad. All situational of course.

Lord Dick Tim:
Also consider your initial direction of travel.  If your moving down then suddenly switch on hydrogen it wont be nearly as effective.  Momentum counts big.

Kyren:
The state of your balloon when you initiate it also plays a role. The balloon's effectiveness goes down with the damage it takes. A nearly destroyed balloon won't get up fast anymore, even with hydrogen.
