Vessel State Check

[MattNW]

On the latest version of DG III I always get a "Door Not Closed" when I check my vessel state. Everything's closed up
tight but I still get the message.

AH, I was wondering about that too.. But since I never get any negative effects, I keep forgeting to ask.

[MattNW]

Yeah, I wouldn't have caught it either but I was showing someone Orbiter last night and they asked how I
remembered all the stuff. Everything works Ok though. Just get the message that the door is open when they are all
closed.

Interesting thought for a minor systems malfunction. You could have a door get stuck half way closed or open and
have to recycle it a couple times to unstick it.

Actually, try opening the landing gear and while it's opening, cut off the power to the gear and look under the ship.
Surprise! the gear is half way out.

I added that to my bug list, does it happen on every check or one in particular ?

I noted it on the Before docking check, but it could happen in others, I'll run a test in a bit.

I've experienced the door problem too, I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the hatch rather than the doors
themselves. I haven't been able to induce it, it just seems to happen sometimes.

I confirm. Happens to me as well. I think it's since you fixed the temp bug. Don't really know which door it is referring
to (cone or outter airlock). It's no problem really, just an inconsistency.

I just tested it. It's referring to the nose cone when docked and you run the "Before Undocking" checklist. Try
the "Docked to ISS" scenario and then run the check. You'll get a "Door Not Closed" warning and the only thing open
is the nosecone.

That's when i get the thing too, when I', docked to the ISS and run the before undocking test.

I just undock and nothing happens, so i keep forgetting abut it too.

Do you have closed the fuel hatch on the lower panel ? (O2&FUEL, top left and top right)
if the button appear red after the undocking your forgeted to close them.

If yes, it's a bug.

I have a rather bad habit of leaving those hatches open before undocking, but I don't ever have them open *before*
I dock with a station. (why would anyone unless they did it for the kicks, and that's kinda weird.) I'll test it today.

[freespace2dotcom]

OK, dan. I ran a quick test. I ran the "docked to the ISS" scenario. I ran the state checker both with the fuel and air
hatches open and closed. and the "external hatch not closed" warning did pop up when it should have. HOWEVER!


The "door not closed" message pops up every time you run a check before you dock AND before you undock. I don't
know how to get rid of it. I'll test docking with the airlock door open next.

[freespace2dotcom]

Well, I tried opening the airlock doors, but that still didn't make the message go away, I'm at a loos here. anybody
else wanna give a suggestion or three?
