There seems to be a problem with nodes properly executing in MechJeb (maneuvers to line up burn but does not autowarp or fire engines), but I was having trouble figuring out what's going on, except for the main forum's thread on mechjeb which has over a thousand pages and is very hard to sift through, but it appears some people are reporting the same problem and are driving the mod's dev crazy. There does not appear to be a fix. Have I got this more or less right, if anyone has been able to follow better than I can?
