Mun encounter outside sphere of influence


Recommended Posts

hi hi

Just checking, has anyone else seen this bug yet?  I had a strange encounter on the way to Minmus today, where I had a Mun encounter even though I was well outside the Mun's sphere of influence, more than 10 million meters outside the Mun's sphere of influence.  Needless to say, it put a rather significant snag in my mission. :confused:

In case it is relevant, here are some of the other things I did around the time the bug happened: 

  • I made my initial burn to reach Minmus.
  • I went back to the space center and checked on how long I had until I needed to start my asteroid intercept burn.
  • I flew my Minmus mission again, and time accelerated until I was at the descending node for it and Minmus, to see if I could make any useful course corrections.
  • I then I went to my Minmus base station and checked on its progress with filling its fuel tanks.
  • When I returned to my Minmus mission once again, it was inside the folded segment of space-time.

Here is a screencap of the phantom encounter:

Unfortunately, I don't have a save that exists where the bug was happening, since I foolishly kept playing in an attempt to save my mission.  For what it is worth though, you can find my save file at Simulator.zip.  (My dropbox is full anyways.)

I'll see if I can't recreate the bug, and if I do, I'll add that save file in as well.

I was able to recreate the bug, or at least one that is very similar.  Both times it looks like there is a Mun encounter somewhere far in the future, in this case 18 days in the future, but my current projected trajectory gets thrown off.

This time, I made sure to grab the save file.  Simulator2.zip
