Description

This appears to happen with all cockpits except for the Mk3 Cockpit and Mk2 Lander Can. If either of the scanning arms are stowed in a payload/fairing and the cockpit hatch is within the scanning range, the hatch will be obstructed and kerbals can't escape. This is especially problematic for stowed rovers with attached scanning arms. Problem appears to have started in version 1.11 of KSP with all DLC installed.

Hi,

I have same issue on Linux with steam installation.
KSP version 1.11.0.3045.

After some tries, it seems appear every times a scanning arms is placed in a docking bay.
I attached a minimal plane which reproduce this issue with only 4 parts.
