Engine Shuts down itself in RSS/RO Mod... Plz help

[dennislee]

 Hi, I am currently playing Kerbal Space Program 1.1.3 with RSS/RO mod. However, the engine shuts itself down too quickly. I didn't touch the throttle button nor the time warp button. I literally didn't touched anything. Does anyone know how to solve this problem???

Hi,

how quickly do the engines shut down? most of the engines, especially the early ones have a limited burn time, and become unreliable and prone to failing after that time. Is it possible that this is the case?

Also, there is a sub-forum for gameplay question like this, and a whole thread for discussing RO, I think you should be able to find better help there.

Engine Shuts down itself when the fuel is left for about 5~10%. It didn't happen when I first installed Realism Overhaul.

I hate that the engines have a limited number of ignitions. I had that turned off as soon as I figured out what it was.

If you use RO and Test Flight mod then it's maybe the engine that reaches its maximum burn time, becomes unreliable and fails. Another possibility is the ullage.

I would guess it`s testflight. Launch some flights with the same engine and see if it lasts longer. I found I needed to launch 5-10 attempts at orbit in a career game to get my engines reliable enough to reach orbit.
