Bug #3919
Updated by Squelch about 10 years ago
I was building a spaceplane, and had to launch it from the VAB because of the part count limit. I noticed the center of lift appeared really wrong in the VAB.
Even though the vector appears weird, the vessel seems to fly normally.
h3. Steps to reproduce:
# Build something that looks like a plane in the SPH
# Save it
# Go in the VAB, and select the saved vessel from the "SPH" list
# Note the orientation of the vessel on import, and the position of the CoL marker.
# Select the root part to automatically orientate the vessel to the vertical.
# Note the new CoL marker position.
h3. Example 1:
In spaceplane hangar:

In VAB:

Rotated in VAB for horizontal launch:
