R2 counts up and P40 never cuts the SPS it has to be done manually with PRO

#

📎 Player.log

#

IMO this should be given high priority as it can really ruin the day of someone who is unaware

#

just for completion how did you have your SPS set up? there are other things that can keep the shutdown signal from doing anything with an improper comfiguration

spiral pier Jun 14, 2023, 2:10 PM

#

I don't recall exactly but it's according to the SPS burn helper checklist (which I need to update at some point)

rustic sparrow Jun 14, 2023, 2:11 PM

#

that doesnt tell me much

spiral pier Jun 14, 2023, 2:13 PM

#

I'll post a screenshot of the checklist once I get home in a few hours

#

@worn snow could you post it if available

rustic sparrow Jun 14, 2023, 2:17 PM

#

whats on the checklist and how you physically configured could be different, checklists hold assumptions

spiral pier Jun 14, 2023, 2:18 PM

#

I should note that this is a recurring thing

#

Also the log should say what switches I flipped during flight

elfin thistle Jun 14, 2023, 3:08 PM

#

try cutting it with the dv thrust switches next time, if it still runs then definitely a bug

spiral pier Jun 14, 2023, 4:02 PM

#

Makes sense

spiral pier Jun 14, 2023, 10:27 PM

#

hmm seems to be hit and miss

#

sometimes yes sometimes no

elfin thistle Jun 14, 2023, 10:28 PM

#

weird

#

can't remember ever having this bug

#

so the only way to cut it is PRO? dv thrust doesn't work sometimes?

spiral pier Jun 14, 2023, 10:32 PM

#

no the P40 auto cutoff

elfin thistle Jun 14, 2023, 10:33 PM

#

ah

#

there are some burns in early missions where they have you do manual cutoff with the dv switches, I would try that just to solve the problem

#

flick one off 10 seconds before cutoff and the other off as close as you can

spiral pier Jun 14, 2023, 10:35 PM

#

or press pro

#

its easier

tall basin Jun 23, 2023, 9:03 PM

#

I never have this issue

spiral pier Jun 23, 2023, 9:03 PM

#

I have it infrequently

#

It seems to be hit and miss

elfin thistle Jun 23, 2023, 9:04 PM

#

is it hit or miss whether you hit or miss earth </joke>

bonks PDI with a newspaper

elfin thistle Jun 23, 2023, 9:08 PM

#

grabs newspaper and retaliates

spiral pier Jun 23, 2023, 9:12 PM

#

grabs Tshirt cannon Gatling gun

elfin thistle Jun 23, 2023, 9:13 PM

#

grabs actual gatling gun

#

attaches gatling gun to plane, then strafes Spark with it

@elfin thistle @spiral pier Please stay serious in the serious channels

spiral pier Jun 23, 2023, 9:17 PM

#

The best practice for burns is to set the EMS up as a backup burn monitor

#

That way if such a bug, glitch or whatever is encountered you can cut it off manually

elfin thistle Jun 23, 2023, 9:18 PM

#

yes

spiral pier Jun 23, 2023, 9:18 PM

#

And GNC failure whenever those are added

elfin thistle Jun 23, 2023, 9:18 PM

#

though in the actual spacecraft you have to think about tailoff thrust and all of that crap

spiral pier Jun 23, 2023, 9:19 PM

#

Yeah but that's more a NASSP area of expertise

#

And iirc tail off can be trimmed with RCS if necessary

I did TEI bout 10-20 mins ago and it was fine
