TWR different on launchpad than in VAB


Recommended Posts

I'm using Kerbal Engineer.  I don't know if this is a bug or I am not considering something, but I've noticed that my TWR in the VAB is different than on the launch pad.   I had always assumed that the TWR in KE was accouting for the above stages. Is this not the case?

This is the same rocket:  left on pad, right in VAB

It's showing atmospheric versus vacuum TWR. In-flight, KER will always show the TWR in your current situation, while in the VAB, you need to toggle it by pressing the Atmospheric  button.

Thank you. I figured it was user error, but was not sure what I was missing.
