IS there a way to tell the 2nd stage to fire when jettisoned?

Multistage 2015 Automatically Generated Guidance File
Vehicle: SLS
-10.000 =orbit(200.00,200.00,-29.59,1.00,76.50,0.00)
-5.000 =engine(0.00,110.00,5.00,0.00,0.00,0.00)
50.000 =fairing(75,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00)

The first stage gets it to a 200 km orbit. But when we jettison the 2nd stage only the Ullage motors fire. Even though there is no thrust
 
IIRC, it should fire automatically.

You could try to give a second "engine" call though.
 
Thanks.

No change. Not sure if it because it has reach the orbit200?

I had similar issues with the Jarvis rockets using Multistage2025. One work-around that does the trick is to insert a Jettison command in the guidance file. For example,if the first stage burns out at 200s, insert “202=Jettison()”
 
So now em1 flight:
Code:
Multistage 2015 Automatically Generated Guidance File
Vehicle: SLS
-10.000 =orbit(40.7,1806.00,-28.63,1.00,76.50,0.00)
-5.000 =engine(0.00,110.00,5.00,0.00,0.00,0.00)
50.000 =les(85.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00)
50.000 =engine(100.00,85.00,3.00,0.00,0.00,0.00)
50.000 =fairing(100.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00,0.00)
80.000 =engine(85.00,101.00,3.00,0.00,0.00,0.00)

This is what it will be:
SLS/ICPS
 The SLS core stage inserts ICPS/Orion into an 22 x 975 nmi (40.7 x 1806 km) MECO
state; ICPS performs a Perigee Raise Maneuver (PRM) at the first apogee to raise the
orbit to 100 x 975 nmi (185 x 1806 km)

So turned off complex and it would blow up the ship.
But still not getting it there
