Description of the bug.
Expected Behavior
When I try to return from a moon to Kerbin or when I try to return from Duna, I expect to do an escape burn on the inside of an orbit (the side of the mun facing Kerbin or the side of duna facing Kerbol) that results in a smaller orbit than that of the body I am leaving, as if I had done a retrograde burn from that orbit.
Observed Behavior
I get a larger projected orbit as if I had done a prograde burn. The bug is consistent in that if I do an escape burn on the other side, I get a projected orbit that's smaller than the moon's/planet's orbit.
Once I leave the moon or planet's SOI, I get the correct orbit based on my angle of departure, i.e. the incorrect orbit disappears and the correct one takes its place.
This makes it very difficult to plan a reentry maneuver.
Steps to Replicate
From a circular orbit around the mun, minmus, or duna, create maneuver node that leads to a retrograde escape trajectory.
Executing the burn still results in the wrong orbit
Exiting the SOI leads to the correct orbit
Bug doesn't always manifest but seems to recur with the same saves
Fixes / Workarounds (if known..)
Using an external calculator to determine angle and delta_v of maneuver.
