New asteroids - when?

[KerbMav]

I updated my save from .23 to .23.5 after the fix for not-spawning asteroids, but since the first batch I got no new asteroids it seems.

After tracking all of them to see which will come close/impact and selecting two to catch/redirect, I untracked all others and after that never got any new untracked ? objects.

Do I have to watch the observatory longer? Do asteroids just stay for that long? I thought there was no limit?

Sometimes it can take even up to a quarter of Kerbins orbit around Kerbol for more to appear - sit in the tracking station on max warp and check.

How long period did elapse since you did that? Have you already captured your tracked asteroids without any new spawning, or did you just wait a couple of hours?

[KerbMav]

Hm, just a few Kerbin days ... I was under the impression that the asteroids would vanish after a short time if not tracked.

Maybe I am just spoilt by the fast spawning of the first 22.

You can always quicksave, then fast forward a few years to see if they will or won't spawn. Then you can quickload to get back to original state.
