Hi, I've just started unlocking nuclear engines in the tech tree but I'm having some trouble with the Rotating Fluidized Bed Reactor Engine. Not sure if it's a bug or if I'm doing something wrong. The problem happens when switching back to the ship with the nuclear engines from another ship. It doesn't happen every time, but often. I have 3 engines and all are unresponsive to throttle, though they do glow as if they are partially working. There is no exhaust plume and no thrust generated, though occasionally I get a momentary puff from the exhaust. I've tried shutting down and reactivating the engines which does not work. I did find however that if I open the reactor control window (after right click on the engine) and click shutdown, all engines begin to work as normal (except electrically in the case of the engine I just shutdown the reactor on). This is not ideal because I don't see a way to reactivate the reactor, so I can only do this once for each engine. I'm running 1.5.1 with IE version 1.20.16. Edit: also noticed it happen after a long period in time warp without switching ships. Thanks

Hi guys and gals, new to the forum, so be gentle I've got about 200 hours of gameplay under my belt and still loving the game. I wanted to start a new career now I have a better idea how the game works, and thought it would be a good opportunity to install some mods. Ive got quite a few installed but I found that I was having trouble with frame rate. I have a pretty good system that I put together myself a year or so ago, running an i7 overclocked to 5GHz, and had no trouble at all in the stock game. I only ever saw the clock flicker yellow at 3x speed in atmosphere. However, with the mods installed it was solid yellow on the launchpad with a 3 part craft. I had installed EVE and scatterer and suspected that was the issue, so I first removed EVE with no improvement. Then I removed scatterer and boom, back to (almost) stock performance. I then removed all mods other than scatterer, and back to constant yellow clock, solid red at only 2x time acceleration. I'd really like to have scatterer and EVE installed as I'm giving The World Beyond a go, and would like to experience it with all the visuals intact. A few specs and things I've tried: Intel i7-7700K running 5gHz (delidded with liquid metal thermal compound and water cooled. Runs to 70C tops with all 4 cores being stress tested) 16GB DDR4 RAM NVIDIA GTX 1050 Graphics running the game on 3 monitors. (Possibly the weak spot in the setup, but stock game had no issues whatsoever running accross all 3 monitors) Samsung evo SSD Power settings set to performance - made no difference. running -force-d3d11 made no difference other than to introduce some glitches. Running 64bit KSP 1.5.1 - Scatterer installed using CKAN so should be up to date. Please bear in mind I'm new to modding PC games, in fact I haven't been this involved in a game in years! Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated!
