Bizarre problem when rendezvousing with craft

[captainradish]

Having a weird problem when I am returning to my orbiter with my lander. Whenever my orbiter comes into view, it looks like it has a chain of duplicates along the orbit of the craft. I can't take a screenshot because the game then slows to a crawl and then crashes. When I select the ship itself from the space center it is uncontrollable despite having a probe core. It's acting like the last stage of the craft (the landing capsule and parachute without anything else) has fired. I have never ever seen this before 0.25.

Edit: Finally got a screenshot.

Ok, figured this out on my own. Apparently some kind of problem with Realchute. Replacing my installed version with the new one fixed the issue.
