Editing a vessels position along it's orbit

[BadManiac]

I launched three communication satellites into "keostationary" orbit to enable me to launch unmanned missions. (I play with RemoteTech 2) And I had them spaced out roughly equally around their orbits at 120 degrees apart, at VERY precise circular orbits at 2868.75 Km. And just now I was doing a launch of an unmanned drive stage for an interplanetary mission to dock with a lander already in orbit, and all of a sudden I lost control completely.

When I looked at the map view KSP seems to have clustered my satellites together on one side of Kerbin without me touching them at all. And the stupid thing is my vastly over-engineered communication satellites have tons of dV left, but they are all on the wrong side of Kerbin from KSC so I can't even control them to adjust their positions in game!

So now my question is, can I edit my persistence file to change where along their orbit each satellite it to get them back to where I left them? I've looked at a lot of tutorials but none of them seem to explain what to edit to change where along an orbit a vessel is.

So... HELP?

Never mind... a reload fixed it. Still, I'll leave this open, this might be helpful at some point.

You can adjust this by changing the LPE value in the orbit section of that particular vessel. Also note that while your satellites may be on a circular orbit by game standards, they are not exactly circular. What can happen is that one satellite is travelling faster than the others and will eventually catch up.
