DesertPhoenix Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Title says it all, even if it is a bit unwieldy. When my spacecraft enter the visual range of my orbiting space station, the reported targets velocity immediately starts increasing at an alarming rate, even though neither craft is applying any thrust. I might be leasurly drifting towards the station at 10 m/s, but have a reported velocity of about 500 m/s. My current 'solution' is to use Alt-F4 to exit the game (did I mention the 'space center' menu button no longer works?), re-enter the game, and use the auto-save from when they entered the visual range to start again. The glitch isn't present after the reload. Needless to say, this isn't an ideal solution. Has anyone else had this problem, and know how to get around it?I'm running the latest version through steam, and have the ISA Mapsat mod, the farings mod, and the Lazor cam mod installed.

Richy teh space man Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 I'd suggest you make sure all the mods are up to date. Failing that, try removing them one at a time and testing until you know which one is causing it. I'd suspect the lazor cam mod might be the offender, so try starting with that one.

I have the exact same problem. As soon as I get within 5km, my target speed goes wildly out of control even though I'm not thrusting. It seems the prograde and retrograde don't work either. The problem doesn't go away after I reload unfortunately My KSP is not through steam and is version 0.21.1. I'm running Lazor cam, fueltastic, engineering mod, sub assembly manager, and KAS.

Dangerous_Beans Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 (edited) i've seen this too, having a 3km relative speed at ~100m separation (and for long enough to get confused by why i was still there). the mods i have on those ships are mechjeb and kethane, and i also have Lazor docking cam. given our mods, and the fact it blocks the return to space centre and quicksave options like other lazor mod bugs, my guess is it is the lazor docking cam.which sucks cause it is really useful.

AbuMaia Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I'm glad I read this. I was just about to go looking for that docking cam mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlamoVampire Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 had something similar, also from steam, but, I usually launch from an icon on the desktop as opposed to direct from steam, but, I do keep steam ON for updates and what not. For me, Id get to about 500 meters down to as close to 250 meters then suddenly the target vessel accelerates away and as it hits 5km distance, it suddenly warped to half way around kerbin. MechJeb and Lazor Docking cam from Romfarer are my 2 mods atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnno Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Seems like the common denominator here is the Lazor Docking Cam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlamoVampire Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 only had this glitch twice in 1 mission, otherwise its been clear sailing so to speak. and when it DID happen to me, my cam was OFF. I do not turn it on until I am <100 meters, usually at 50m give or take Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radley401 Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I have the same problem and I am using docking camera but when it happens the camera is not on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radley401 Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I just tried it without the docking cam mod enabled and the bug did not happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaFlop10 Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 (edited) Maybe it switched to orbital speed.Click on the speed indicator on the navball one or two times and see if the numbers are set properly.

Vanamonde Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Ladies and gentleman, posting in a thread just to call it a necro ("necromoaning") is now against forum rules (2.5). Time to get out of this habit before we start handing out infractions for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
