Description

Version: KSP 1.0.4.861 on Windows 8.1 64-bit - 32-bit game client - Non-Steam

Detailed Explanation:
When orbiting Mun I went to discard a few of my completed contracts. When floating over the discard trash can icon, the "Discard" label appeared on the screen and then appeared to follow the orbit of Mun, swiftly moving away from my craft.

Thanks for the report. However, we are unable to support modded games on this tracker.

Please can you reproduce in stock, and provide logs and a savegame so we can investigate?

An excellent bug reporting guide can be found here

Squelch, I believe this is the bug being discussed - http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/118272-Science-dialog-box-Discard-tooltip-sometimes-disassociates-itself-from-the-discard-button.

It was reproduced on a stock install by The Manley and sal_vager has confirmed it's known but no fix exists yet.

#3 Updated by Squelch almost 9 years ago

We do have an internal issue for this. Text has been seen to leak out and appear in odd places on occasions. However, it is not always reproducible, and mods can possibly be a factor. A savefile that demonstrates the issue would need to be mod free.

This is acknowledged as an observed phenomenon.

It is hoped that Unity 5 will bring changes that will nullify the problem.

Thank you for your report, and please understand that we can only deal with strictly mod free issues.
