A bit confused about the new DeltaV feature.

[Serenity]

(Look for the best answer, turns out i was missing something).

#Edit Looks like Fuel Priority is messing up Stock DV feature.

So Mechjeb shows me 3200 Atmo DV but the stock feature says 1321 DV.

As the vessel launches the stock DV is increasing .

I am assuming it doesnt calculate the weight drop at the start but as it goes?

If thats the case and i am not missing something(i hope i am)then....what...It doesnt make any sense to me.

If i am going to escape heavy gravity i need to know my DV including the weight drop before i launch...

Looks like you're comparing MechJeb's vacuum dV to stock's atmospheric dV.

Well, that's about the quality of guesses you're going to get without showing the ship.

If that can help here it is https://imgur.com/a/FmLBQbh .(Full Stock Vessel).

I am just trying to figure it out because if thats the case then the Stock DV is seriously lacking the option to include weight loss.

Stock dV gets really confused with docking ports and crossfeed. I don't know if you have crossfeed but you do have docking ports I see.

I hope it's on their to-do list. I don't know if anybody's submitted a proper bug report. I've not had the time.

Huh...you are right...something weird is going on.

When i put it like this https://imgur.com/a/weQhTyz the DV is correct, i ll try to see whats causing the confusion and post if i find it.
