Bug #23333
Launch current craft in VAB always launches [Auto-Saved Ship] craft
0%
Description
Precondition:
Game is not started
Action:
1. Start the game and load a save
2. Goto VAB
3. Open any saved craft (test craft)
4. Rename craft (test craft 2) and change it
5. Launch craft
6. Goto menu and Revert to VAB
Observed behavior:
- the game launches the first loaded craft (test craft)
- (Test craft 2) is lost unless you saved it manually before launch
- instead of reverting to VAB the game reverts to launch and then jumps to VAB
- this means (test craft) is waiting on the launch pad
Comment:
Retesting the issue I found that the game uses the auto saved craft when launching. I deleted the auto saved craft before launch then the game was loading the launch for ~2 minutes before it returned to the space center map. It failed to launch. Sometimes the game kills the money and craft assigned to the craft before it stops launching...
Healing:
Make sure the game creates an auto-saved craft file of the desired craft you want to launch.
Regression:
This is a really really bad regression since 1.08 and it makes me not enjoying the game anymore. I lost crew and money due to this bug Trial and error I’ll not play this game anymore until this bug is fixed.

Still happens. I just delete every auto-saved craft. Be nice to be able to turn that off altogether tbh
