When I jump out of time warp after testing the reduced orbital decay after today's hotfix(9/29/2023), my apogee and perigee decrease by four meters or so.

In order to replicate the issue, please follow these steps:
1) Open the save titled 'Minmus Decay(Post Hotfix)'
2) Activate timewarp
3) Exit timewarp.

I want to add on to this. I tested this around the Mun and Minmus. I mainly encountered this issue around Minmus. I didn't notice it around the Mun. I would recommend further testing around bodies such as Gilly, Ike, Laythe, etc. As well as the other planets in the Kerbolar system. Obvious, I know, but you cannot be too certain.

Yes. Even before 0.1.4 I encounter a small amount of velocity change when engaging/disengaging time warp. This has even happened to me and other players in KSP1 as well, maybe due to the fundemental nature of the time warp system.

However, they have said that orbital decay isn't fixed completely, so yeah, still some work to do.
