  1. I feel like this is where all forum posts go bad, but I'm not sure where to post this. I'm having an issue with KSC Switcher, which doesn't seem to have an active forum thread, and seems to have been adopted separately by GPP and Realism Overhaul. TBH I can't even be sure if anyone is even trying to support it.. but it's included in the GitHub download as an 'optional mod' so there's that? And it doesn't feel right to file an issue with GPP since it's a different mod entirely. Issue: Recovering a craft anywhere on Gael that isn't 'BIOME at GSC' or on the launchpad/runway results in an erroneous distance, often in the hundreds of kilometers. (The problem here being that in career mode you don't get appropriate refunds.) Reproduction Steps: 1. Install GPP according to the install guide. 2. Install KSCSwitcher. 3. In the Tracking Station, click on any of the launch-sites provided by KSCSwitcher, yes any of them. 4. Launch a craft, and recover it >3ish kilometers away (I used the smallest SRB and the Mk1, with some fins, tilting over right away and parachuting down gets you the distance you need.) You should get a recovery distance of hundreds of kilometers, or at least a -wrong- number. Someone else posted about this a long while ago, but no-one replied to him. I tried for awhile to fix this myself, and discovered an actual oversight with the .cfg that refers to KSCSwitcher, it lacks a replacement for the 'DefaultSite' variable, if you set this to the name of one of the sites, ex. KSC_Main, then when you start a new campaign you won't need to go into the tracking station, the glitch will already be observable. Ironically, if you never use KSCSwitcher, you'll never be bothered by this. Another note is that if you are using KerbalKonstructs (just the native additions GPP provides.) then as soon as the glitch is active, you won't be able to see the additions it makes in the Space Center screen anymore. Though they still appear if you load a craft while at the main launch site. Obviously this is easily fixed by.. just not using the KSC Switcher mod, or by not caring about recovery distance, the former is what I'm doing, but I spent all day puzzling over this so I might as well post my findings so I can get told I'm making a simple mistake.
