Game crashes


Recommended Posts

Hi! It's been some time since Making History was released. 

I've found out that there is a hiccup/stutter at around 2km altitude or maybe a 2km sphere around the kerbal space center.

If you go too fast(260-300m/s+) at this point, the game will consistently crash. Throttling down a few seconds prevent the crash from happening.

This kinda limits us to slow and heavy rockets for the time being. 

On reentry, less consistently though, the game might crash if you generate too much heat vs your speed and angle of entry. But I can skim the atmosphere without crashing, diving a shuttle lower through the atmosphere ( an unstable orbit with an altitude of 30km in the atmosphere on one side and 100km on the other side) usually ends up crashing before the shuttle's nose blows up due to heat. But not always.

If you approach the kerbal space center's landing strip, where the beach is, that is where the same hiccup occurs as when you take off. I haven't managed to crash the game at that stage but I'm pretty sure if you go fast enough, it will crash too.

I once passed over KSC with a velocity of around 1500m/s at 5km alt and the game did not crash, so it's really related to the ksc i think.( unpowered shuttle landing test where I overshot).

I hope the devs find this information of some use if their own investigations haven't led them in that direction already.

Have a good day :)
