Landing gear misbehaving on eve

[krakentamer591870]

I'm running the latest version of game from GOG, and come across a weird bug on eve.

My craft is equipped with the largest landing gear. It behave properly when the game is running in normal speed. However, as soon as I started using time wrap function, the landing gear instantly sink into the ground. When the time wrap function is cancelled, the landing gear snaps back up with shear force, launching the spacecraft into the air, destroying both the landing gear and part of the spacecraft.

 

My game is completely unmodded, and the hardware specification exceeds the recommended requirements.

 

The bug is 100% reproducible with the largest landing gear.

 

Any one encountered the same bug?

Jumping landing gear was a common problem in KSP version 1.3.1, and Whale_2 made a mod to work around it

The problem is much reduced since version 1.4.  Some people say the mod above still helps, but I cannot confirm that; you can read the thread and see if you want to try it

Another workarounds are to turn off 'Spring/Damper:auto' setting on the landing gear that have it, after first enabling 'Advanced Tweakables' in the in-flight 'Settings' menu that you get with the 'Esc' key, and then reduce the 'spring strength'.  A more direct workaround is to retract landing gear and rest craft directly on the ground.

Thanks for the reply. I'm currently trying the mod first. I also heard that different type of landing gears behave slightly different on eve surface

 

However, I'm 100% certain that the advanced tweaks thing doesn't work. I already tried adjusting spring/damper strength, it only made the problem worse. Before the adjustment, only the wheels sank into the ground. After disabling spring/damper, the entire landing gear sank. Try retracting the gears sometimes helps, other times as soon as the gear button is pressed, the entire spacecraft explodes or go faster than light in a split second.

 

Also, my spacecraft is super heavy, it weighs nearly 1500 ton fully fueled on kerbin. Allows the craft to rest on eve surface with landing gear retracted is quite risky.For example, when I try to lower the landing gear with a fully fuelled craft resting on eve surface, the gears simply shears off completely, and I'm unable to take off.

I'll try messing around and let you guys know the results after I'm done.
