In circular orbit around Moho at 40km, lander has 3 docking ports, and sits atop 3 external tanks with engines attached. I undock each, and they remain in formation. (see screenshot300)

I time-warp a little, and they start drifting apart (no picture). I switch-to the middle tanker and I can see the other 2 on opposites sides, 10's of meters away, and drifting farther. After I land on the planet, some time later, I can see they have drifted in to 3 orbits w/3 different heights. (see screenshot302)

When I switch-to one of them, they show up as if they are one spot, literally overlapping (see screenshot303)

and promptly explode. (see screenshot304)
