Jool Solar Power Bug


Recommended Posts

I encountered a bug in the current version of KSP2 (0.2.0.0.30291) where the solar panels on my spacecraft start claiming that Jool is blocking them when at extremely high apoapsis over Jool and Jool is far from their line of sight to Kerbol.

I have a savegame called "Jool Solar Bug" after it started and the latest quicksave is from before it began. Starting from that quicksave, it seems to happen consistently as the spacecraft reaches about 12 Mm altitude.

Once the bug occurs, I don't think the panels will ever work again (at least, not while you're within Jool's SOI.) Exiting the game and reloading did not resolve the issue.

I get this from low orbit around Ike in 2.1 even if sun is straight overhead. This is after landing as is flying. Looks like you get power in the evening. 
KSP 1 had an issue there a you get blocked by Kerbin over time while sun was visible in an Minmus orbital distance. 
Think I also saw this at Jool in KSP 1
