Burn delta v keeps climbing

[steuben]

I'm playing around with my class-E rocks in Kerbin-ish solar orbit. As I'm trying to get these things in to Kerbin orbit I've noticed that my dv for the burn keeps climbing... even though I'm not dragging the arrows, or burning. Just dragging the node a bit reset the count... but then just starts climbing again.

The one thing that I've notices is that the node seems to be drifting backwards, so that i'll end up with it a few hours behind my craft with t-a few hours left to reach the node.

Am I seeing a new bug, a known issue, or just plain weirdness of my setup/install?

Are you actually burning in the direction your controlling from? I've had KSP select unexpected modules as the controlling module. Just make sure to select 'control from here' from the context menu of the one you want it to be and see if the navball jumps.

not burning at all. The throttles are at 0 and the engines shut down.

What version of KSP are you using? Do you have the "Orbital Drift Compensation" turned on in your settings? This sounds like the ver 1.1.2 orbital decay bug.

1.1.3 x32. for he most part stock settings. but i'll check when i get back to that machine.

 

edit to confirm

version 1.1.3.1289 32 bit. can't run 64 bit on this machine for comparison, 32 bit os.

orbital drift compensation is on.
