Description

Version: 1.2.0-1586 Windows Steam x64

When armed chutes inside a service bay are deployed with the bay closed they provide minimal drag and your craft is doomed.

Steps:
  1. Load the attached quicksave or launch the craft.
  2. De-orbit burn.
  3. Open the top service bay and stage the parachutes.
  4. Close the top service bay.
  5. Observe the following:
    • Parachutes will deploy when safe.
    • Parachutes will unfurl at 1k (or whatever is set if you change it).
    • Craft will not slow down as it should.
Verify:
  1. Redo steps 1-4 above.
  2. When the chutes deploy open the service bay.
  3. Observe the craft slows as it should. Closing the service bay at this point has no adverse effect.
