My Claw won't attach to the asteroid

[Mitchz95]

KSP: 0.24

Problem: My Claw won't attach to asteroids anymore. It worked once, but now it just bounces off.

Reproduction Steps:

- Use 0.24

- Rendezvous with a class-E asteroid in interplanetary space and attach to it with the Claw.

- Timewarp until you enter Kerbin's SOI, then disconnect, maneuver around the asteroid, and try to reconnect.

- The Claw will now just bounce off the asteroid, refusing to "dock" as it should. Sometimes it will get stuck in the asteroid and build tension, though disarming the Claw will release it. And yes, I've been going after a relatively flat part as carefully as possible.

EDIT: Here's a picture. You can clearly see the Claw embedded inside the rock, but it won't latch on for some reason.

Possibly It is this known issue from FinePrint (your log confirms it)

Thank you! Cancelling the contract solved the issue.

Yes this was a known issue. It will be fixed. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Oooh, this sounds like exactly the problem I was having... There's a mission to bring in a class A, and I was struggling to grapple a B and a C. Any info on when that fix will show up? (Nice to know what's up with it though!)
