I'm getting really frustrated trying to find a realistic capsule addon for a NERVA-driven mission to an NEO. So far the candidates I've burned through are:
ESA CTV - My first choice, but some kind of bug nobody has been able to help me with keeps me from using 100,000x time acceleration, so the mission takes forever.
Dragon - Has a crippling bug that deploys the parachute or something whenever the altitude drops low enough, prevents rendezvous with NEOs or launch on a custom Velcro stack.
Antares - Second choice, but UMMU is all messed up and I can't transfer people out of the capsule so consumables will last long enough. Would have been perfect if it was still Spacecraft3 and I could use UMMUFA.
CEV-Orion - Would have been perfect, but UMMU doesn't work.
Soyuz - I can't get CVEL Soyuz to work anymore, and the nice new one with ISS Fleet doesn't have UMMU.
AMSO - Just...no, I really don't want Apollo hardware for this, so I haven't tried it.
Are there any other options? I'm really getting frustrated here, every candidate I would want to use seems to have some bug or other problem that specifically prevents me from accomplishing my goal. CTV is absolutely perfect except for the time acceleration thing. :beathead:
This is the sort of situation that makes me take month-long breaks from Orbiter, when you just run into problem after problem at every turn. :facepalm:
