First I want to say I love your FTL drive it is one of the best mods out there.
I have this odd error. When I dock the VC LSV Scavenger ship built with a blueprint, I am not able to Jump.

I have tried docking with the connector and/or the landing gear, When the Jump is triggered the Carrier ship dose not move. Also there is a notification telling me to send in the FTL.log because of the error. IF I remove the ship and move it out of the Jump box the ship will work normaly. I was going to take apart the Scavenger and see if a block or block arangement is causeing the problem, but I haven't done that yet. Also I was wondering if the naming of the ship mattered?

I did some more expermentation on my problem, I deleted blocks one by one and I found that the Wheel Blocks on a connected ship will fail the FTL drive. The 1x1, 3x3, and 5x5 all cause the failure to Jump issue. Just the suspention unit with out the wheel will not cause the problem and the ship will jump normaly.
Wheel blocks on the Carrier ship will not cause the problem and it can jump normaly with wheels. I do not know if Large wheel blocks on connected ships will cause the issue or if it is only limited to small wheel blocks. I think I will just edit out wheels in the ships I use and hope in the next update wheels will work normaly. Thank you again for a wonderful Mod.

Thanks, please try with the latest version.
I just posted a fix last night that should fix any rotor issues (wheels are based on rotors).
I tested it out and it seemed to work for me.
PS. I appreciate you providing all the information from the get go. :-)
