Description

I have had this issue for a long time now. It has finally irritated me enough to make an account on here. :D

Once i get an encounter with a body. I get the purple exit trajectory. Once this happens i can no longer click on the blue line to make a new node. No matter how much I zoom-in-out/pan around it. This seems to be random. I can always however create nodes on the purple line.

This seems to happen a bit more when i am in solar orbit and then set up my encounter.

I have no maneuver nodes on my screen btw. Already took advice from Bug #831. Doesn't work

I am only using one mod. Flight Engineer
I have seen this happen in the last few versions of ksp. .20+ ish

I'm having the same problem. Intermittently. Can't set a maneuver node on the blue line. Sometimes I can set it, but only after the periapsis, never before. I can set maneuver nodes on the purple line just like Fidelacchius can. Windows 8. This doesn't occur on the outward leg of a trip, close to Kerbin, but can occur any time after I've set a course that escapes Kerbin SOI.

I have this problem too (v0.23). I also have a similiar problem which I believe is related to this. When I kill my horizontal velocity so that my ship starts falling straight down and the orbit indicator becomes (nearly) straight line, it won't let me set a maneuver node anymore - neither in the up or down direction on the estimated route (I can only guess it is because two lines are too close to each other).
