Description

Resuming last save causes previously landed rover to crash into ground upon entering it via tracking station.

misc.
Settings: Terrain detail set to: LOW

Steps:
  • started new game in career mode.
  • Made a rover & launched it from Island airfield. Drove rover approx 300 - 400m south of Control Tower.
  • Quick Saved my rover: 0m/s & altitude of 173m. https://i.imgur.com/U7zizRU.png
  • turned off game via normal menu path
  • had lunch irl
  • got back on pc and loaded KSP
  • Pressed "Start Game",→ "Resume Saved",→ "save file name", → (now in KSC) moved camera over to south east direction to island airfield, → saw my lil "Blue Rover mk2" ICON (upside down tear drop style), → clicked on the icon, → menue poped up, → Clicked on "Fly", → loaded in, → i see rover at altitude 279m, → falling, → exploding upon impact.

I'll be supplying a zip with the save data of this.

starting game with low terrain settings and then loading back in with the same initial settings force changes the initial altitude value of the craft.

This happens with or without making history.

Doesn't happen on default or high terrain settings, but I can confirm it happens on low.
Tested it in the same location.

Spotted and investigating. Also got a pretty bad NRE flood, though that may be a separate issue.

Edit: 100% Stock. fresh install only switched to "low" terrain settings and ticked "fullscreen".

Here is a truly clean log after a fresh install:

Sorry.

same issue in 1.4.2

#15 Updated by Anonymous almost 6 years ago

This still happens. It is specific to the transition between the island airfield and the surrounding hills.
There may or may not be a row of hills north of that runway, depending on terrain detail.
(In one version, craft parked in the hangars would respawn above the hangar roofs.)
If you park craft outside the Island Airfield, but inside the pocket it carves into the island terrain, there will be trouble on reloading, and you might have to alt-F12 cheat-menu to avoid damage and then park elsewhere.

#18 Updated by Anonymous about 5 years ago

We might guess that the new Kerbin terrain had solved this, but no. Craft parked in the transition regions to any hills around the landing areas will spawn above ground on reload.
