IMFD Orbit Insert problems

TGT still stays stuck on Ecliptic though, but this setting appears to make no difference to the final orbit anyway.
The word Eccentricity still shows as a selectable parameter.

TGT is not used by Orbit Insert. So it's probably hardcoded into Ecliptic.

You can switch the Eccentricity into a Semi-major axis and so on...

I have one other possible bug, normally to eject from the moon back to earth I would use base approach, but I decided to try planet approach so I could try to set up to swing back the moon again. However, I found that though planet approach displayed the orbit I wanted, using orbit eject set on course sent me way way off course, out into space.

You're right! I hadn't tried using the + - keys

Thanks very much

Jarmonik, now that we see you here, I might like to make a request.
Could it be possible to have an explanation of the values that you can change?
For example, Realtime and Off-axis. What is this?

Kay, orbit insert works now, but now i have problems with the orbit eject program... however, it's most likely due to me, rather than the program...

I set up course program, target mars, trying to get a low oV and changing the orbit eject program to use data from course. I then launch using the surface launch program, when in Orbit, the orbit eject program shows an HTO with periapsis at the center of the planet (earth), this is fixed by setting "realtime" to "off-axis" and then back to "realtime", however, i then get a burn time of about 1.6K, which depletes all my fuel.

Thing is, i have gotten this to work, to give me a good burn, so i figured i've must messed up the settings somehow, but i cant for the life of me figure out what i've done different this time, compared to how i did earlier...

Any ideas?

Which ship/scenario are you using?
Can you post a save?
