Tried to make a normal transfer to the Mun.

Even after adding 1300km deltaV and lots of fiddling couldn't get more than a couple of close approach markers.

Additionally, as I approached 1200km prograde deltaV, the periapsis began to collide with Kerbin. Looks like the burn puts a kink in the trajectory.

Have made innumerable transfers to Mun and never experienced anything like this before. If anyone can see what I'm missing please tell me.

@NaughtyMonster Is this the problem you are having? That the game isn't registering the encounter?

Yes. I made the burn and got the encounter, even though it hadn't shown. Which accounts for the drop in periapsis I guess. First time I've had that happen.

There's still that odd bend in the red part of the trajectory. Any ideas what's causing that?

Its because of the long burn. To make my screenshot I reduced the poodles thrust limiter until that curve happened and the lack of encounter happened as well.

I am assuming the curve comes from following the prograde marker over a long burn. It will be pointed in the wrong direction by the time the burn finishes.

@NaughtyMonster What do you think about changing the title to the following?:
