Probes launched from orbital dock having problems with MechJeb #42

I first raised an Issue on the MechJeb gtihub, but I'm starting to suspect this may be related to EL instead. Firstly, here's what I've already said over there: https://github.com/MuMech/MechJeb2/issues/304

Since the things I've posted there, I've noticed that now, my probes are having the problem from the moment they are released from the orbital dock. However, if I build the same probe at the KSC launchpad, MechJeb is working fine.

I'm really not sure what exactly has caused this problem, but due to my observation above, I thought that this was worth raising here.

From https://github.com/MuMech/MechJeb2/issues/304#issuecomment-38269339 "The wobble problem is something else, maybe an initiation bug with EL, I don't know."

No idea if BloodyRain2k is right, but I thought I'd copy this over here.

Does saving/loading help? EL might be doing something wrong still, but I have no idea what.

austinjames314 commented 10 years ago

I had been saving, and then restarting KSP and loading. That didn't make any difference.

The only thing that seems to make any difference for me is to go into the IVA and back out.

Also, it now seems that every ship I make from my spacedock is having this problem from the moment it launches. Fortunately I'm now able to resolve it immediately by pressing 'C'.

Go ahead and close this if you want @taniwha-qf . I'm pretty sure that this isn't an EL bug now. I've launched things from KSC and they've had the same problem.

OK, I'll close it. Thanks for keeping me updated.
