observations of the Kraken

[Deadpangod3]

so ive been paying VERY close attention to how these new Kraken attacks occur, and ive noticed a few things, im posting now to share my findings and what I know so far.

it happens (for me atleast) when you quickload and timewarp or stage, possible conection there.

it bends the ship until it snap (possible link farther down)

it causes the ships Apoapsis to rise continually, but without increasing speed.

and based on what ive had with multiple ships so far in building my asteroid station, is that it seems to affect ONLY the command pod or probe core, cause each time ive had the ship break off on each side of the command pod, and only small parts close to it stay attached if the connection is strong enough, also afterwards you are unable to rotate the remainder of the ship.

so im no coding expert or anything but since I can easily notice simularities and connections, im going to take a guess and say that this new Kraken (which I vote we name "The Warp Kraken") is a bug with physics loading or suddenly giving out, probably only for the command pod of the loaded ship.

Hopefully this can help the devs fix it.

edit: also, its seeming to "Haunt" some of my designs, possibly related to its name somehow.

I think the Warp Kraken is already a thing. Can we call this the Snappen?
