Hi, everybody
I found a MechJeb error when calculating the operating time of Lynx engines when there is a shortage of oxidizer in the tanks. I tested the launch of a rocket into the orbit of Kerbin at a height of 80 km. with the MechJeb take-off assistant. Image
The error appears at the stage of calculating the rounding of the orbit. MechJeb does not take into account that there is not enough oxidizer and calculates the engine running time as if it is enough.
The Lynx engine stalls at the most inopportune moment, and the two Nerve engines continue to work, but the thrust is no longer the same. Time is lost.
When calculating the burning time, the amount of oxidizer is not taken into account! I think so. Test crafting by link or in the picture.
(I used a translator to translate into English )
PS. I proceeded from the following consideration that if a pilot in manual mode is able to put this ship into orbit with a delta V residue of more than 500 m/s, then MechJeb can do even better too.
