Description

Was going to the Mun for an orbit with a bunch of tourists, and the orbit prediction really didn't like my exact trajectory until after I left Kerbin's SOI.

Used the save supplied but already saw this on my approach to the Mun in one of my own saves

Note: to see the issue, you need to increase 'Conic Patch Limit' to at least 4 in the Settings.
There is an encounter with the Mun, then escape from Mun to a large orbit barely inside Kerbin's SOI with period over one year, then a second encounter with the Mun that is jittery. The second encounter is very sensitive to the initial conditions.
