In Gemini Agena mission, the IVIs won't zero for the first major burn
I can bring the IVIs down, but the forward/back IVI will stall at 8 and then it will begin climbing. Also, the Perigee is below 100 Km. Am I doing something incorrect?

This might mean that you will wait for the next Ap and Pe passing to properly zero the IVIs fwd/back.

Could you perform an ascent and then open the console, on type the command: o

This will print your orbit details. Then post a screenshot of them here?

And I assume the platform is aligned to the target roll/azimuth?

Thanks for reporting!

Yeah, that might have helped!! You nailed it. So now I am docking with the Agena, but it won't engage.

So, I saved, backed out, switched off the simplified approach, and the thing docked! Then I dropped my orbit to 125K, reentered, did splashdown, and history is made!

Excellent, great job, it's a complex procedure:)
