Hi! I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong while using KSPTOT.
What I do, in order, is:
Select the 3 bodies (centre, departure and arrival)
Right click on the 'Earliest Departure/Arrival Time' boxes and select to 'Get UT from KSP'
Click to 'Computer Porkchop Plot'
Once done I click on 'Computer Departure Burn'
In the new window I right click on a field in the 'Initial Elliptical Orbit Information' and 'Get Orbit from KSP (Active Vessel)', it populates correctly
Click on 'Compute Departure Burn'
The maneuver looks good, it roughly matches what other DV calculators estimate for the same kind of transfer
I then right click on it and 'Upload maneuver to KSP', I follow through by clicking the red 'Upload Maneuver' button.
The values uploaded to KSP match what was in the window
But the predicted orbit after maneuver in KSP makes no sense, it's in a completely different plane then needed, Ap does not reach target
Example of Mun to Minmus transfer:

Any suggestions what I should do differently?
