I started to test what was causing the issue back then, with sticky throttle.
What I noticed now was even more curious.
- using RCS works as expected. Thrust applied to the towing ship transfers to the towed ship, and vice versa.
- using Torch Drive on towing ship works as expected. Thrust applied transfers to the towed ship.
- using Torch Drive on the towed ship doesn't work as expected. When opening the cycle and flow to generate thrust, no sound is created, and thrust is only applied to the towed ship. Nav console on the towing ship shows the same thrust as before.
Using fast forward on the map shows the 2 ships drifting apart due to their differing velocities.
After a save and reload, the VREL for both vessels is matching again.
Targeting the towed ship shows a differnce in VREL.
This is reproducible in my save right now. Attached as usual
