Mechjeb corrupting time warp
Hello fellow Kerbanauts!

I recently installed Mechjeb 2.0.9 and it has worked fine so far. But when I change to a space station in orbit it corrupts the time warp. Now what I mean by that is that the time indicator in the top left starts blinking yellow and green (-> Mechjeb constantly warping time back and forth), causing a lot of stuttering. This only happens with this space station, but not on any other ship. I have tried turning off auto warp in every window it appears to no avail. When I manually warp to anythingt other than 1x this stuttering goes away.
I've also tried launching a new ship to dock with it. Again, with the new ship time warp works fine, but as soon as I get to around 500m of the space station the time warp starts stuttering again.
Is anyone else having such issues? I'd be glad if someone could help. Thanks in advance!

Sounds like a clue to the solution.

Usually, the flashing numbers for flight time means that the game is not running at a constant frame rate, an it tries to correct the flight time.
It efinitely has nothing to o with timewarp, at least.

What you are describing falls into the category of lag caused by having big crafts, too many for your computer to handle without lagging at least a bit.

As far as I know, it happens with or without MechJeb, and I don't think it either helps or hinders in this matter, at all.

It's just that thiss station lags you a bit, but maybe not enough for you to notice FPS lag by eye.

How many parts does your space station have? It sounds like it's a lot.

the only time it does that is if you are trying turn station and you pushed the speed keys up they have to be manully set to 1 at least that what mine does but not often

Ah, there seems to be the problem: The space station has 329 parts. My fault for not thinking of that earlier. Thank you for the fast replies and good flights!
