Wierd staging behaviour

[purpleivan]

While working on an attempt at the weekly challenge (Impact the Mun) I've come across a wierd behaviour of the game when staging.

I have a video below which captures this behaviour.

What happens is that after loading a mid flight save, several of the staging levels disappear when I hit the staging key.

This has happened several time with various forms of the vehicle in the video. In this specific case, I loaded the save (a few seconds before the video starts), then at 17 seconds into the video I hit the staging key, which that time works correctly. However the next time I hit the key (at 1m 02s) stages 8 - 6 just disappear, without being triggered.

 

I'm running version 1.4.4 of the game on Windows, but I only updated yesterday and had the same behaviour occur on v1.4.3.

I have various mods (visuals and infomation mostly) , but none which should affect the functionality staging. The only non-stock parts I have are those in the Making Kistory DLC and none of those were used on the vehicle.

I've put the craft file and game save that I was loading from here.
