I'll try and get round to testing in 1.10 when I get time.
I also found it quite odd that "Node Helper" would be interfering with Scatter but I was isolate it to just these two mods installed and the "Oceanless/Atmosphereless" bug appeared (Basically Scatterer is unloading the planet details asif it's far away)
I'll get a messege sent over to the Scatterer dev/team too, just wanted to give you a heads up.
