Description

When I close my laptop (so that it enters sleep mode) and open it up and resume ksp fairings in the VAB, SPH, and in flight dissapear visually. This seems to get rid of the fairings physics as the white air effects seem to show on the parts whil going supersonic but I am not sure if that happens normally. You can still deploy the invisible fairing though.

History

#1 Updated by Alexoff over 6 years ago

I saw the same thing in 1.3.1 prerelease - sometimes when I minimised ksp window for some reason and then make it fullscreen I founded rocket without fairing.

I think the issue I posted is related to that (February 1st). The same effect happens when I switch anti-aliasing settings in game. Some graphics module restarting might cause this by not re-rendering the fairings. Some further investigation (launchign a booster with and without fairing) shows that the fairing is just not visible but still modeled drag wise. The mach effects seem to be calculated and rendered afterwards which makes sense. I'm not sure though what kind of an effect the fairing has on the mach effects of the parts it protects.
