rofl: stoopid kerbal engineers

[togfox]

So I got my favourite Mun orbiter out of the VAB with intentions of giving it a spin. It's a tried and tested 0.16 model. Done many millions of kilometers. Very stable. Brought her crew back alive every time.

I load it up in 0.17 and aim for the Mun. Launch away. Smooth as silk - ascends like an eagle and starts dropping empty fuel tanks a little early than I expected. Hmmm - that never happened before. I watch the ascent carefully - more tanks are dropping off. That's odd. My booster stage jettisons about 30km too early! WTF?! A few more stages later and the lunar landing module is the only thing that is left at 65 km - still not in orbit!

fuel bug in 0.16 fixed in 0.17 means my 'efficient' craft no longer work.

Good bye old faithful ... you've served the space program well ... *sob*

This is why you should have used the fuel bugfix plugin in 0.16 ^^
