I found a bug (IMO) in IMFD 5.x returning to Earth from Neptune.

Orbiter version: 2006/2010

IMFD version: at least 5.3, 5.5

Steps to reproduce

- Select Course->Target Intercept
- Set Earth as target and Neptune as source
- Set TEj to MJD 59432.6 and TIn to MJD= 63263.7

You'll see the blue line jumping all around; IMFD seems unable to find the right path, but only in 5.x versions, IMFD 4.2.1 doesn't show this behaviour.

Maybe Jarmonik wants to fix that.

Attached a screen capture. The left MFD is the target intercept program in the oldie IMFD 4.2.1; the other MFD is IMFD 5.3 with the same inputs.

Thanks for reporting this. I don't have time to fix this right now but I hope to find some time in the future.
