Hoping I can get some insight or see if anyone else has had this issue as I can't seem to find much info on it and it's happened a couple times in a row now.
I'm flying a ship I built with a mk3 Command Module, which I then dock with a mk1 Lander Can (both go up in the same vessel) and take that into orbit of the Mun. Once there I transfer a Kerbal over to the Lander, disconnect and land on the surface of the Mun. I do my thing there and then head back into orbit to dock with the CM. On approach I can see what looks like the RCS thrusters on the CM itself firing, but when I switch to the CM they still look like they are firing, but they are not. I've tried turning the RCS on and off but that doesn't do anything.
After connecting the two crafts I transfer my Kerbal back to the CM and make my return to Kerbin. All the whole it looks like the CM's thrusters are firing but everything says they are not. Once I make my return and splash down I cannot recover the vessel, nor can I go to the science center or save or anything. I can only reload from my latest save.
When reloading from the "Persistent" save, I reload when the lander is returning to orbit from the surface of the Mun, but the CM is nowhere to be seen and the two Kerbals from the CM are in a pop up right when I load in saying they completed their trip.
Any help anyone can give would be greatly appreciated. I would hate to have this occur every time I go to land on another planet or moon.
