Arrow XR2 bug

[Cras]

I seemed to come across something odd here.   When transferring crew from the XR2 into the Arrow, some crew disappear.   I think it might have something to do with the no pilot in control function of the XR2 but I am not sure yet.  I had 8 people in my XR2.  I transfered 4 of them into the Arrow via a space station docking port.  They all showed up in the Arrow as expected.   Then I undocked, rendezvoused the XR2 at the docking bay.  Closed the bay up, then egressed the remaining 4 crew, and only 2 showed up.  I then sent a cdr UMMU back into the XR2 to see what is up, showed he as the only crew on the XR2.  So I then egressed him back into the Arrow, only he disappeared, didnt show up in the crew list on the right screen.

Anyone else run into something like this?

Seems to be more than just XR-2, tried to egress people from Arrow into my space station with strange results.  The UMMUs disappear, and after closing orbiter and looking at the current situation scenario, I see this:

It appears my attempts to transfer UMMUs cause weird spawns of UMMUs yet they are off in space, named after the vessel I believe I was trying to transfer them to, and no mesh to them at all, just ghosts out in the darkness.

The issue I think is with the Arrow recognizing a docked vessel.  I just ran a flight of an XR-2 to an Arrow in 1000km orbit.  I docked at first to port 2, on the top side.  All is well, eva crew to the arrow, alright.

Then I open the bay doors and move the XR-2 from port 2 to the bay.  When I dock to the bay, I get the sound to play, the XR2 says it is docked, the Docking MFD says it is docked, the Pursuit MFD says I am docked, but the lights in the docking bay remain in that blue sequential pattern as if to say, this port is still open.  I switch over to the Arrow and in the VC, I look at the main status screen, and it shows Bay port OPEN.   I close the sim, reload the current situation and now the Arrow sees the XR2 and the bay lighting pattern is in that red pattern to say this port is OCCUPADO!

Hi Cras,
I noticed the same problem so I regularly close and reopen Orbiter to get the Arrow  to see the docked ship.  It must be a bug!

Thanks for confirming the bug, know it isn't just an oddity with my particular installation.
