Bug #484
Selecting a Target in Map View Gives the Wrong Result
100%
Description
Attached, please find a .zip containing a KSP save entitled "Will". In map view, when I attempt to select a docking target, the wrong craft is actually activated as target--and it's always the same craft.
Repro steps:
1. Load save state "Will".
2. Go to Space Center UI.
3. Go to Tracking Station UI.
4. Select "Kerbal One Probe".
5. Click "Fly".
6. Hit "m" key for map view.
7. Click on "Mission to Duna" craft to select it as target. This will be the only craft with a "ship" icon on the map orbiting Kerbin.
Expected result:
Pop dialog box showing "Mission to Duna" text and "Set Target" button.
Actual result:
Pop dialog box showing "Kerbal One" text and "Set Target" button. Clicking "Set Target" will result in the actual Kerbal One craft being selected.

Updated by One of the features of the target selection system is that you don't actually have to click the target ships icon, but its orbit line. But when there are multiple close orbits it's really difficult to select the right one.
Maybe it's better to make this a feature request: when in map view clicking on a craft's icon, automatically propose to select that craft as a target instead of checking for which orbit is clicked.
