Description

Prior to 0.90, the launch clamps would remain at the launchpad to allow recovering them for a refund.

Now they disappear after returning to the space center, so cannot be recovered at all. Their funds are therefore irrevocably lost. Even recovering a ship at the launchpad that did nothing but detach from clamps leaves them unrecoverable with funds lost.

History

#1 Updated by RexKramer almost 10 years ago

  • Subject changed from TT18-A launch stability enhancers disappear after returning to KSC to Items left at launchpad or runway disappear.
  • Status changed from New to Confirmed
  • % Done changed from 0 to 10

This also affects other items left behind on the launchpad, not just the Launch Stability Enhancers. It also affects items left behind on the runway, tested with launch stability enhancers on the runway.

Confirmed KSP 0.90, OSX 10.10.1.

Changed subject to reflect the fact that any parts left behind, on either launchpad or runway, disappear.

Just did a bit of testing, and this is mostly fixed, but not entirely. The parts remain after launching and returning, for manual recovery. And if you launch a new ship from the VAB, the parts still on the launchpad are recovered. However, if you click on the launchpad and select another ship to launch, the parts still on the pad are deleted without recovery.

Thanks Thanny, if you can add some current 1.1.3 logs for the instance and change the status to Updated we'll see if someone can confirm it for us too
