IMFD Unable to Set Source to Self, Course Programs.

[Mattyv]

I've been trying a Earth to Venus transfer using IMFD.

It normally starts out well, but when I try to set up target intercept for mid-course correction, I 'm never able to set the source to myself; the program keeps telling me I cannot set the source to self because I am in the influence of a body (the Earth in this case).

The problem is that this message is popping up when I'm closer to Venus than Earth.:idk:

I find the quickest solution for this class of problem is to reset the program by setting the TGT again, and choosing the same arrival date. It should automatically set the source to yourself.

Yep, that worked. It's always something very simple.

Thanks

Not really a fail; Course program has many such bugs (it's the only MFD that bluescreens ), so it's no fault of yours that this happens.

Happy to be of some service.
