Bug #26942
Strut Connectors used in EVA construction mode disconnect for unknown reasons
0%
Description
I am building a space station and in its current size it is in need of structural reinforcements. When I try to place Strut connectors around the station, some of them disconnect from their end points after I leave the station for Tracking Station or the Space Center. I can't see a pattern to the cables that disappear.
I'm leaving my save file for testing. The station is named Kerbin Space Station and is close to a synchronous orbit around Kerbin.

Can confirm. Struts just disconnect after the scene reload with no traceable or reproducible cause.
Only have this in the console when clicking the first part of the strut:

It might have something to do with the craft you trying attach struts to. I can only attach struts normally to the original craft I launched an engineer kerbal with. If I try to do that with the same kerbal, but different craft - struts disappear after the reload. Only a few struts stayed. Very strange.
