Bug #22931
Aerodynamic Properties of vessel change after save
0%
Description
Ok, first time I thought it was my building skills, but now I'm certain...
I have a vessel that can be classified as a Kerbin capable, refuelable, VTOL SSTO. I worked very hard to optimize this bad boy: It can reach and land on Minimus, VTOL around Kerbin, Semi-circumnavigate and return... it's legit.
However, it can only do all of these wonderful things after an initial launch. That is: Launch from Dessert, reach Mach 3, refuel at North Pole, reach mach 3, return to Dessert, mach 3, Land on a Mountain, Return to Lowlands, Save.
Upon reload, I can't reach Mach 1! what? I'm so flamed right now. I know it's not a weight issue; it won't reach Mach 1 at half fuel.
I'm certain the craft has the proper aerodynamic properties; I greatly reduced drag after having this problem once before. I streamed an anomaly hunting session on Mixer with iteration 2.
Why is this happening? Someone please email me.
