The bug of amazing indestructibility!

[Klapaucius]

I don't know how the heck I managed this one, but I seem to have found a bug that renders my plane virtually indestructible.  Some combination of BD Armory, Camera Tools and Mission Builder gives your plane super powers.  The odd thing is, other planes crashed and were destroyed, but this one and one other just wouldn't die.  I noticed it while it was on autopilot; I took it off auto and proceeded to bash it into the ground a few times with no damage.  Check out the video. It's about 2 minutes.

@Klapaucius - could you run some more tests with the MH expansion installed .... My spidey senses are tingling and I have a suspicion that the MH DLC is messing with BDAc

I personally dont have MH so am unable to test any of my suspicions (I'm a cheap stand-up guy ... prefer to make my own mission builder )

Anyways, if you are so inclined it would be an immeasurable help

I can, but it may be at least a week. Last night was an indulged interlude (as is posting this morning). Due to outside commitments, I need to take a break from KSP for a bit, so I might not be able to devote the time right away.  My hunch, however, is that I reset the minimum altitude to 150 meters on a couple of the planes,. However, since I was in the mountains, the ground is higher than that. I wonder if it is getting confused over relative vs absolute altitude and not realizing it has hit the ground?

 

To be honest, I am rather enjoying this bug 

As for Mission Builder--$15 for the flexibility it gives you.... I never make missions, I use it as a hyper-edit with lots of extra flexibility built in. It would have taken me ages to set these up, and I have found I really enjoy setting up scenarios for good photos and video.  It is, however still buggy.

 As you can see, BD Armory works brilliantly with hydrofoils as well :
