My apologies if this has been reported before (a search didn't turn up anything).
UMmu 1.5 BUG
Short description: EVA then ingress in a scenario with two UMmu capable vessels and more than 20 (or so) other vessels causes Orbiter to hang.
Severity Serious: hangs orbiter.
Only work-arounds are:
* use only one UMmu capable vessel
* limit the total number of vessels
* never ingress ('E') a UMmu
Complete description / Reproduce bug Start with a clean Orbiter installation with only base+OrbiterSound+UMmu and a UMmu capable vessel (I tried with DGIV and
with XR5) installed. (To be clear; I tried this without XR5 installed so it is not an XR5 bug.)
Load one of the following scenarios.
EVA a crew member.
F3 to switch focus to crew.
Approach docking port and hit 'E'.
For me this hangs my Oribiter every time.
Scenario with DGIV:

Miscallenous If I load the scenario and delete some of the excess vessels (here they are stock DeltaGliders but I tried it with other
vessels types as well) then EVA and ingress work again. The total vessel limit appears to be 20 (depends on how accurately I
was counting).
