It's been a long time since I've been on here, but with the quarantine going on I decided to get back into Orbiter.
On my last flight to the ISS using the standard Delta glider, I ran into a problem. It seems that I can't fully stop my motion either towards or away from the ISS. If I do get my CVEL down to 0, I just start moving in the other direction. Thus starts a vicious cycle where I start moving towards the ISS only to have the CVEL go into the negative at an increasing rate, whereas I have to kill that momentum and start moving towards the ISS, only to have that motion stop and start moving the other way and I never actually rendezvous with the ISS.
I don't know what could be causing this. I'm pretty sure I synced my orbit correctly.
