Description

I have a mission to grab an asteroid. I selected it as target and executed my maneuver node for encounter. Something seems to be bugged or i missed something, because asteroid stated days away from kerbin encounter, but intersect arrows are close together. After reaching that area, of course there wasn't an asteroid.

I never can arrange an encounter with asteroid this way.

History

#1 Updated by AlffromKerbal over 7 years ago

Seems i were to early in posting. I initially used PreciseManeuver for help of detailed maneuvering and increasing orbiting count by xx. I uninstalled it and checked already set nodes which suggested that the node was ok. After deleting the node and redefine it without mod, it seems to have correct time values.

Maybe this issue may go as low feedback to vote for something like to have stock capabilities like PreciseManeuver mod panel is providing (at least some of it). Increasing count of orbitcirculating is some hard clickclick trying to advance 60 days.

Sorry for any inconvenience.
