Description

A new indicator takes into account all turned on engines. Not engines that can work. This leads to a wrong calculation when the oxidizer ends in chemical engines and only nuclear engines work.
This can be solved by turning off unnecessary engines, but it's inconvenient in some cases.

It took me a second to figure out what's going on, but yes, after putting the attached ship in orbit, and setting up a maneuver, I can confirm the BTI seems to be taking into account all 4 engines, despite there being no available oxidizer. Build 2336

I don't see any change in recent versions.

The burn-time does notice that there is no oxidizer, and corrects its estimate, as soon as you open the throttle. After doing that once, further burn-time estimates are correct.
