Pilots lost after recovery?

[ejtttje]

Hi all,

I updated to the beta today and finally returned to Kerbin a Jool mission I sent out about 8 months ago (real time). The ship has four pilots (Jeb, Bob, Bill, and Munly), plus a whole bunch of science modules.

The problem is when I go to the space center and "recover" the ship, I don't get any science points and all the pilots are marked as "Lost". If I send a pilot on EVA and recover him individually, he is still "Lost".

Is this a bug? Why can't I recover my ship, it's acting as if I'm destroying it.

Oh I'll add this is in the old "career" mode, which looks like it's now "science" modeâ€â€the mission and administration buildings are closed.

Also, if I start a new mission and the recover it, I get the same issue with the pilots being lost.

Sounds like a backward compatibility issue. If you can, post a save file and we can try to take a look and see if we can help you manually fix it. I'm not sure if there's a safe way to fix it in-game.

Cheers,
