Cannot warp faster than 1x while ship is under acceleration

[gogozerg]

Such mysterious messages often happened beyond Jool atmosphere in the past (I didn't check recently) or in other conditions.

But right now, I'm orbiting Kerbin, altitude 88k and I can't see any special acceleration around. Just passively orbiting Kerbin. Never had this before the latest patch.

I'm certain there's a technical reason for this message (trajectory that can't be put on a rail?). But the message itself is at least misleading, don't you think?

I can confirm this, has been happening to me quite a bit since 1.1.3 patch.

Switching craft, returning to the KSC, or quicksave/quickload will usually fix it.

I've even had limited success with EVAing a Kerbal, or changing the selected Navball marker. (Ie. change it from prograde to retrograde) Sometimes just disabling SAS or timewarping the ship a little bit fixes it. It makes me think it's something to do with the rotation of the ship, or possibly the fix for the decaying orbits is messing with the timewarp's ability to detect when you are not accelerating? Hope it gets fixed soon.

I also was mostly managing to fix it by disabling SAS.

Happened to me too in the final stage of the stock AeroEquus, at around 90km. Disabling SAS didn't work for me. The engine was definitely off, but when I detached it, warp functionality came back a few seconds later.

Seems like a bug. If a trajectory isn't on a rail, that shouldn't matter, I've had it enabled while aerobraking plenty of times. I'm pretty sure the ONLY time you're not supposed to be able to use warp is during a maneuver.

It happened to my spaceplane once a while and I always managed to fix it by double tapping both B and G (it might be just one of them but I didn't bother narrowing down which one).

I also had it since 1.1.3. I quick saved (no change) deactivate SAS (no change).

Then I rolled the ship, and I could timewarp.

Well, it is not wrong. In orbit your are continually accelerating towards Kerbin 

I have seen this in previous versions, but mainly when rotating massive ships at 60rpm or faster...but now in 1.1.3 it happens very often(but mostly at low altitudes). I am gonna try out some of these "not-so-placebo" fixes though(i only know about disabling SAS and EVA kerbal fix)
