Bug #4910
Solar panels partially overheated upon flying a ship
100%
Description
KSP Version 1.0.2.842 through Steam
Windows 8.1 64 bit (but playing the x86 version of KSP)
tl;dr: Upon flying a ship in Minmus orbit for the first time since the 1.0 update, its solar panels were all at 50% heat
I loaded up KSP, built a ship or two and flew them. At one point I went to load my Minmus space station to do a quick "science data from space around Minmus" mission. I went to the Tracking Station, selected my ship, and clicked "Fly". When my ship (space station) had loaded, all four of the small solar panels had overheating bars at about 50%, including the one on the side facing away from the sun. Within a minute they had all dropped in temperature til the bars disappeared.
I was unable to reproduce the bug a second time. I tried loading all my other ships from before the update, and none of them exhibited the bug.
