Hello everyone,
I accepted a contract to bring back a class D asteroid back to Kerbin. I managed to klaw to it and put it on orbit of Kerbin, the burn took me a few hours because I was not mining the asteroid quickly enough to provide continuous fuel to the engine.
I exited the game and returned later on the ship to find that the klaw was at a distance of a few meters from the asteroid and the drill could not reach the surface of the asteroid and was unable to mine it. I am now left with a ship "klawed" with my asteroid which I cannot mine and not enough fuel to move it around.
If i try to unklaw and reklaw to the real surface, I have a message from the agency stating that the asteroid has already been touched and I am afraid the asteroid would not qualify for the contract anymore.
Did this behaviour happened to anyone ? How did you solved it ?
Thanks.
