Whackjob Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Obviously you are going at superluminal speeds and this chaotic path is a result of both frame dragging and spacetime distortion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p1t1o Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Is it not possible that that orbit is actually what would happen, as perturbed by passing bodies?Or is the physics in KSP known to whack-out occasionally? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to follow the node and Erin's orbit kept derping up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specialist290 Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Ah, the joys of Conics Patch Draw Mode 3. Always gives me a chuckle when it spits out something that looks convoluted like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
