I can confirm it was a heat thing even though it wasn't. I had the cheat enabled to ignore max temp and was setting up an orbit around the Mun. The engine (Closed Cycle Gas Core w/ Hydrazine) instantly went from 300k to like 3500k and would have exploded if i had not had that cheat enabled. It cooled down very very quickly and I could proceed with my maneuver. That is just crazy. Is this still a bug or is this by design and I need a better understanding of those types of engines.

Sorry for the double post up there. Didn't realize it worked the first time. So it is in fact a heat thing causing the explosions even though they are only reading between 300k-700k? If that is the case, how would I know that the "situation" is going to happen to know that I need to use that cheat? Or is that a cheat that applies globally to everything? (Never used any cheats or debug stuff before) Thanks.

I was wondering if I could get some help. Sorry if this has been discussed before. My engines keep randomly exploding. It has happened both with the thermal nozzle and the closed gas core engine as well. Neither engine was anywhere near overheating. It always seems to happen when I'm doing a lot of throttling up and down for like docking or something. Would the fact that I'm using Hydrazine matter with it being volatile and whatnot? I simply can't wrap my head around this. Thanks for any help.

I have an issue that I can't seem to figure out and apologize ahead of time if this has been discussed. For some reason my engines keep randomly exploding. It has happened with both the thermal nozzle and the closed gas nuclear engine "lightbulb" thing. At the time of the explosions the engines were no where near overheating (something like maybe 700 or so). Each time it happens it's usually during docking maneuvers or some such that requires a lot of throttling up and down. Is it happening because I'm using Hydrazine fuel (being toxic and reactive or some such) or is this some crazy bug or and I'm just bad at KSP LOL? Please help and thanks ahead of time.
