Red Burn Time Indicator

[Tepacana]

I'm unsure if this is simply a feature I don't understand or a bug/glitch, but the burn time indicator for the manoeuvre nodes of the spaceship I've assembled by docking sections together in orbit appears red, and only displays "39s". As shown in this screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/bBCGvC9

The engines do work, I did a short test burn to make sure of that. Does anyone know what this is? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Its a cool new feature in 1.5.The red shows you how much delta v you are missing for the burn.Or at least thats what i think it is...might need a better reply cause i am kinda sleepy at the moment  .

Currently, the new burn time indicator is a bit broken for nuclear engines.

Normally, the red indicates that you don't have enough fuel, but it doesn't seem to recognize the NERVs. Hope they fix it soon!

But only if you have more than one NERV. For a single NERV it seems working.

Moved from Tech Support, as it seems more Gameplay related.

I think they have fixed it, because it does seem to be accurate for my 5 NERV engines. Guess my mission to Jool is screwed lol.

I had an issue with if for my Moho mission, but the indicator is just an indicator, i just ignored it and did just fine.

I use Atomics almost exclusively in space and this is killing me. The amount of time in red in different for different ships (have from 8-48 motors and sometimes dock multiples) but doesn't change whatever I do.

Getting by with a lot of remembering, and flying by seat of pants again, lol.

Burn times set before the update are still okay, just new nodes.

Seems to be some inconsistency when it hits too.

Yeah, burn indicator is bit broken after last patch, but from my experience it is only for NERVs, which can be problematic if you use them often. Good news is, mechjeb is able to execute maneuver correctly, no matter the status of burn indicator. So until it is patched, mechjeb is probably only option for NERVs.

I know this is old, but wanted to say THANK YOU THANK THANK YOU for "vee or not" 1.60.

Addressed this problem and so much more. You guys are awesome!

Guess next item on wish list would be the memory creep...
