[BUG] in flight re-staging doesnt stay

I have found that when you alter your staging mid flight (ex: move parachutes to an earlier stage) that is doesn't get saved anytime you go away from the craft for ANY reason (switching crafts, loading a quicksave, going to space center, restarting KSP...). Its rather annoying to have to make the same change to staging over and over and over...

In my experience it does save it. Try adding an empty stage at the bottom of the staging list and then hitting space (usually twice) until the empty stage goes away, then try a quicksave and reload. When you change the stages in flight you need to hit stage once before the changed list becomes active, maybe it's not saving it because the new list isn't active yet.

That worked, thank you.

I changed the post to solved, however having to use an empty stage (or any stage, but many times itll be empty) to get the staging order to save definitely isnt straight forward...

oh cool, glad that worked.

Yeah, you're right, it's not exactly intuitive. I guess I just do it automatically 'cos I've been playing so long it's just become one of those things you do! Infact now I think about it, yeah, I always hit stage once after editing the list in flight so it'll be ready for when I need it, so that's why it's always saved it for me.

I would still class this a a minor bug.
