Complete List of Game Bug Fixes
Fixed by this Mod
  1. Fix runaway loops in Lander Rocket code that renders them stuck unable to do anything.*
  2. Fix for spurious thread crash when sending colonists to an asteroid resulting in rocket taking off with no colonists.
  3. Fix for stuck rockets on asteroids due to inventory rounding errors in Auto or Manual Inventory selection Mode. Yeah its a thing.
  4. Fix for waiting for drones to be available before takeoff. If you got em, we are taking them Shanghai style.
  5. Fix for waiting for rovers to be available before takeoff. If you got em, we are taking them Shanghai style.
  6. Fix for rocket stuck unloading resources on asteroids when you bring colonists as well.
  7. Fix CTD and frozen condition/runaway loop due to Micro G Habitat missing code to prevent shuttle requests. Yeah on an asteroid
  8. Fix colonists dying from suffocation when exiting the Lander Rocket.
  9. Fix drone egress point. They use the door now.
  10. Fix lost rockets when abandoning asteroids. Rockets get recalled if en route to, or in orbit of, an asteroid you abandon as long as they have 15 fuel in cargo.***
  11. Fix for rocket perpetually unloading colonists on an asteroid but they have already exited.
  12. Fix for Rocket vanishing/despawning when loading drones that are not already attached (stolen drones)
  13. Fix clicking cancel flight does not cancel flight.
  14. Fix to stop rocket launching when you clear the cargo but do not have a destination set. Ignore the in game popup about takeoff.
  15. Fix for forever unloading rocket loop even though cargo is all gone.
  16. Fix for drone waypoints to and from the rocket ramp.
  17. Fix for stalled rocket/no takeoff when Lander rocket is built on Mars instead of ordered from earth.
  18. Fix for invalid flight register objects
  19. Fix for bad spawned drones when using bulk spawn

Notes
* This may not cure all things that can cause launch failure but its a big one.
I tried to find all the flaws in the original source.
This new code will allow you in most cases to cancel a launch and gain control of the rocket again.
