In vanilla KSP, when two objects are more than 5 km apart from each other, and moving while in the atmosphere, one will automatically despawn. This is understandably something to reduce lag, but it is also a major problem for the current project I am working on. I am attempting to air-drop kerbals in seats out a moving plane and then having them parachute down safely. However, I would have to circle around the area where i dropped them in a turning circle with a radius of under 5 km in order for the seats to stay parachuting without despawning, a feat which my unwieldy delivery plane is incapable of. I could of sworn that Romfarer's excellent Lazor mod fixed this problem for me in the past, but it seems I was mistaken, as the problem persists even with the mod. Does anyone know of any mods that extend this distance, or remove it entirely?
