Hello,
I have a problem with IMFD 5.1 and 5.3.
Everytime I use tangential transfer and select jupiter as target it says:
couldn't create orbit for this MJD.:(
When I tweak the MJD until it reachs the dashed line it it says again:
couldn't create orbit for this MJD.
Inversion 4.2.1 there isn't this problem.

Any answers?
Thanks

Could you attach a scenario using stock delta-glider.

Are you having the same problem with the scenario?

Yes, I have been able to reproduce the problem. But haven't had any time to anything for about it.

But in V 4.2.1 it works well.
Is it only in this scenario?
Have you ever been able to do it without a problem?

Not when targeting outer planets in 5.1 or 5.3 release. Inner planets seems to work fine. That entire program should be reimplemented.

The fix is "use transX"

I know that I can use TransX.
But I use both. TransX for complex flights like slingshots. And IMFD for Hohmann transfer orbits, because I calculates the fuel efficientiest transfer orbit.

Will it be fixed in IMFD?

Maybe it doesn't work with outer planets?
