Hi everyone!
I have a question about the Multistage guidance system. I'm trying to tweak some guidance files a bit by changing the "heading_Target" entry. What I notice is that the orbit changes if I do this. For example:
When I don't change it, I'll have an orbit of: 295x250 km
when I change it, I'll get an orbit of at least a ApA of 700km.
My question: Why is this happening? I thought that the launcher would reach its new heading in the same time as the old heading so it wouldn't affect the rest of the guidance.
And can I overcome this by change something like the "init_pitch_time" so I don't have to edit the whole guidance?
Thanks in advance :tiphat:
