Description

The mobility enhancer ladders seem to have a bug where if you attach one to your ship, 'extend' it, then do somethings and go back to 'retract' it does nothing.

Easy way I've found to reproduce. * open VAB, new ship * add mk1 command pod root * add mobility enhancer to top of pod (doesn't matter which, both the extending mobility enhancers have this bug) * right-click mobility enhancer and 'extend' * launch ship * revert to VAB * right click mobility enhancer and 'retract' -> FAIL nothing happens

confirmed on linux 64bit (may affect others).

Noob here just signed up for 1.0 bugs cause their is a bit too many for final release! But I can also 100% confirm this happens on windows as well! Using Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

Nothing obvious in the logs here. Will attach both the player.log and ksp.log anyway.

Also of minor note, This was an issue BEFORE 1.0, I noticed it since tweakables were initially added (or around that time), but never posted anything. Would be nice to have a fix though :)

I confirm it is very old, already reported here too: #2328 #2639
It's not about extending them - even if you leave them retracted, after save/load it's no longer possible to change their state.
Workaround is to delete the ladder and place a new one.
